Recent measurements of semileptonic $B$-meson decays into $\tau$-leptons are somewhat higher than expected in the standard model. Although the deviations are less than 3$\sigma$, they suggest the possibility of new physics affecting…
The R_K measurement by LHCb suggests non-standard lepton non-universality (LNU) to occur in b -> s l+ l- transitions, with effects in muons rather than electrons. A number of other measurements of b -> s l+ l- transitions by LHCb and…
In recent years, intriguing hints for the violation of Lepton Flavour Universality (LFU) have been accumulated in semileptonic $B$ decays, both in the neutral-current transitions $b\to s\ell^+\ell^-$ (i.e., $R_K$ and $R_{K^*}$) and the…
Within the assumption of Left-Handed (LH) New Physics (NP), we review the relations between $\mathcal{B}(B\to K^{(\ast)} \tau^+\tau^-)$ and $\mathcal{B}(B\to K^{(\ast)} \nu\bar \nu)$ for several Beyond the Standard Model (BSM) scenarios,…
Even though the LHC searches did not unveil the new physics particles so far, LHCb hints towards deviations from lepton flavor universality in exclusive decays based on the transition $b\to s\ell\ell$. In this proceeding, we present a new…
We discuss the status of $b \to s \ell^+\ell^-$ decays in the post-$R_{K^{(*)}}$ era. The recent LHCb update of $R_K$ and $R_{K^*}$ measurements which are now compatible with the Standard Model, constrain new physics contributions to be…
We explain recent LHCb measurements of the lepton universality ratios, $R_{D^{(*)}}^{\tau/\ell}\equiv \frac{\mathcal{B}(\bar B \to D^{(*)+} \tau^- \bar\nu_\tau)} {\mathcal{B}(\bar B \to D^{(*)+}\ell^- \bar\nu_\ell)}$ and…
The current world averages of the ratios $R_{D^{(*)}}$ are about $4\sigma$ away from their Standard Model prediction. These measurements indicate towards the violation of lepton flavor universality in $b\rightarrow c\,l\,\bar{\nu}$ decay.…
LHCb found hints for physics beyond the standard model in $B\to K^*\mu^+\mu^-$, $B\to K^*\mu^+\mu^-/B\to K^*e^+e^-$ and $B_s\to\phi\mu^+\mu^-$. In addition, the BABAR results for $B\to D^{(*)}\tau\nu$ and the CMS excess in…
We calculate the decay width and the $\tau$-lepton energy distribution as well as relevant moments for inclusive $\bar B \to X_c \tau \bar \nu_\tau$ process including power corrections up to order $\Lambda_{QCD}^3/m_b^3$ and QCD corrections…
We discuss $B_c \to \eta_c$ and $B_c \to J/\psi$ semileptonic decays within the Standard Model (SM) and beyond. The relevant transition form factors, being the main source of theoretical uncertainties, are calculated in the sum rule…
The LHCb Collaboration's measurement of R_K = B(B+ -> K+ mu+ mu-)/B(B+ -> K+ e+e-) lies 2.6 sigma below the Standard Model prediction. Several groups suggest this deficit to result from new lepton non-universal interactions of muons. But…
Lepton universality, meaning the equal coupling of the electroweak gauge bosons to the different lepton flavours, is a central property of the Standard Model (SM). Tests of lepton universality in ratios of rates of $b\to s\ell^+\ell^-$…
Semileptonic $b \to c$ transitions, and in particular the ratios $R(D^{(*)}) = \frac{\Gamma(B \rightarrow D^{(*)} \tau \nu )}{\Gamma(B \rightarrow D^{(*)} \ell \nu )}$, can be used to test the universality of the weak interactions. In light…
The di-leptons and di-neutrinos observed in the final states of flavor-changing neutral b decays provide an ideal platform for probing physics beyond the standard model. Although the latest measurements of $R_{K^{(*)}}$ agree well with the…
We report the first observation of $D^+\to\tau^+\nu_\tau$ with a significance of $5.1\sigma$. We measure ${\cal B}(D^+\to\tau^+\nu_\tau) = (1.20\pm0.24_{\text{stat.}}\pm0.12_{\text{syst.}})\times10^{-3}$. Taking the world average ${\cal…
A measurement of the ratio of branching fractions $R$(J/$\psi$) = $\mathcal{B}$(B$^+_\text{c}$ $\to$ J/$\psi$$\tau^+\nu_\tau$) / $\mathcal{B}$(B$^+_\text{c}$ $\to$ J/$\psi$$\mu^+\nu_\mu$) in the J/$\psi$ $\to$ $\mu^+\mu^-$, $\tau^+$ $\to$…
I review the recent theoretical progress on the study of tree-level semileptonic $b\to c$ decays. After briefly reviewing the latest developments on the exclusive determinations of $|V_{cb}|$, I discuss the hints on lepton flavor…
We present a global analysis of the current $B$-meson flavor anomalies and extend it to the baryonic sector through the decay $\Lambda_b^0 \to \Lambda_c^+(\to \Lambda^0 \pi^+) \tau^-(\to \pi^- \nu_\tau)\bar{\nu}_\tau$. The lepton flavor…
Several measurements on $R_D, R_{D^*}$, and $R_{J/ \psi}$ by the BaBar, Belle, and LHCb experiments show significant deviations from their Standard Model (SM) predictions, which illustrate the fact that the concept of lepton flavor…
