The measurements of B -> pi K decays have been in disagreement with the predictions of the Standard Model (SM) for some time. In this paper, we perform an update of this puzzle using the latest (2008) data. We find that the situation has…
We study possible effects of new physics in CP asymmetries in two-body $B_s$ decays in left-right models with spontaneous CP violation. Considering the contributions of new CP phases to the $B_s$ mixing as well as to the penguin dominated…
Penguin, or loop, decays of B mesons induce effective flavor-changing neutral currents, which are forbidden at tree level in the Standard Model. These decays give special insight into the CKM matrix and are sensitive to non-standard model…
The discrepancies found in the B->pi K decays between theory and experiment suggest the presence of new physics in the electroweak penguin sector of the theory. We show that this hypothesis can be tested more efficiently including in the…
We discuss about a possibility of large electroweak penguin contribution in B -> K pi and pi pi from recent experimental data. The experimental data may be suggesting that there are some discrepancies between the data and theoretical…
New physics (NP) in charmless strangeness-changing $B$ and $B_s$ decays, which are dominated by the $b \to s$ penguin amplitudes, can either preserve isospin or change it by one unit. A general formalism is presented studying pairs of…
We show that the anomalies in the $B\to\pi\pi$ decay channels, {\em viz.}, the large branching ratio of $B\to\pi^0\pi^0$ and large direct CP asymmetry of $B\to\pi^+\pi^-$, can both be explained, even in the framework of existing theoretical…
We present measurements on penguin dominated B decays which are sensitive to new physics, such as CP-violation parameters and branching fractions in $b \to s q\bar{q}$ and $b \to d q\bar{q}$ gluonic and radiative decays using a large sample…
We study the effects of electroweak penguin (EWP) amplitudes in $B$ meson decays into two charmless pseudoscalars in the approximation of retaining only the dominant EWP operators $Q_9$ and $Q_{10}$. Using flavor SU(3) symmetry, we derive a…
The penguin loop-suppressed $B\to\phi K$ decays are highly sensitive to contributions of hypothetical heavy new particles. Particularly interesting probes for testing the Standard Model and revealing such phenomena are provided by CP…
Time-dependent measurements of the decays B_s^0(t)-->\phi K_s and B_d^0(t) --> K^0 \bar{K}^0 can be used to compare the weak phases of B_d^0-\bar{B}_d^0 mixing and the t-quark contribution to the b->d penguin. Since these two phases are…
The b --> s nu anti-nu transitions are sensitive probes of new physics (NP) in the form of non-standard Z penguin effects. They involve four experimentally accessible observables, among which the inclusive rate of B --> Xs nu anti-nu is the…
A major goal in B physics is measuring the CP-violating asymmetry in the decay $B^0 \rightarrow \pi^+ \pi^-$. In order to determine one of the phase angles in the CKM matrix from this decay it is necessary to determine the influence of the…
Measurements of the combined branching ratios for $B^\pm \to \pi^\pm K$ and $B_d \to \pi^\mp K^\pm$ allow interesting constraints on the CKM angle $\gamma$, the ratio $r \equiv |T'|/|P'|$ of the current-current and penguin operator…
The b -> d penguin amplitude receives contributions from internal u, c and t-quarks. We show that it is impossible to measure the weak phase of any of these penguin contributions without theoretical input. However, it is possible to obtain…
We present the contributions of new CP phases in CP asymmetries of two-body neutral $B_s$ decays coming from a left--right model with spontaneous CP violation. Large deviations from the Standard Model predictions can be accommodated in a…
We study the effects of new-physics contributions to B --> pi pi decays, which can be parametrized as four new complex quantities. A simple analysis is provided by utilizing the reparametrization invariance of the decay amplitudes. We find…
New data from the BaBar, Belle, and CLEO Collaborations on B decays to two-body charmless final states are analyzed, with the following consequences: (1) The penguin amplitude which dominates the decay $B^+ \to \pi^+ K^{*0}$ has a magnitude…
There are variety of methods which directly test for the presence of new physics in the b -> s flavour-changing neutral current (FCNC), but none which cleanly probe new physics in the b -> d FCNC. One possible idea is to compare the weak…
It is well known that one can use B -> pi pi decays to probe the CP-violating phase \alpha. In this paper we show that these same decays can be used to search for new physics. This is done by comparing two weak phases which are equal in the…
