We study heavy-hadron semileptonic decays proceeding via $b \to c$ transition, such as $B \to D^{(*)}\tau\bar{\nu}_\tau$ and $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda_c\tau\bar{\nu}_\tau$. In the heavy-quark limit, where the heavy-quark symmetry holds, we…

I review the use of the Heavy Quark Effective Theory in the computation of total rates and differential kinematic distributions in inclusive semileptonic and radiative B decays. Particular attention is paid to strategies for the extraction…

We estimate the renormalon corrections to the inclusive decay rate of heavy hadrons. We assume the gluon mass term $\lambda^2 \gg `^2$ to imitate the short distance nonperturbative effects. It is found that the the inclusive decay rates are…

We explore the observational adequacy of a class of Unified Dark Energy/Matter (UDE/M) models with a fast transition. Our constraints are set using a combination of geometric probes, some low redshift ones, and some high redshift ones (CMB…

In the large $N_c$ limit, all hyperon decays involving the same quark diagram $Q\to Q'$ are described by a single weak form factor $\eta_{QQ'}(w)$. No assumption on the mass of $Q$ or $Q'$ is necessary, making our results applicable to both…

In the context of the observed decay $B \rightarrow K^* \gamma$ the applicability of the Heavy Quark Effective Theory (HQET), treating both b and s as heavy quarks, is examined. We show that the heavy s-quark approximation, as can be found…

We derive the low-energy electroweak effective lagrangian for the case of additional heavy, unmixed, sequential fermions. Present data still allow for the presence of a new quark and/or lepton doublet with masses greater than $M_Z/2$,…

We present updated and comprehensive Standard Model predictions for the inclusive rare decay $B \to X_s \nu\bar{\nu}$. Using a state-of-the-art determination of the short-distance coefficient, including NLO QCD and electroweak effects, and…

Using effective field theory approach, we study the constraints from electroweak data on the SU(5)/SO(5), SU(6)/SP(6), SU(3)xU(1) little Higgs models and their variations. We construct an effective theory valid above the electroweak…

We review a set of the possible ways to constrain extended gravity models at Galaxy clusters scales (the regime of dark energy explanations and comparison with $\Lambda CDM$), for black hole shadows, gravitational wave astronomy, binary…

The Belle Collaboration has measured the complete set of angular coefficient functions for the decays ${\bar B} \to D^*\,(D\,\pi)\,\ell\,{\bar \nu}_{\ell}$, where $\ell = e,\,\mu$, in four bins of the variable $w={m_B^2+m_{D^*}^2-q^2 \over…

We investigate the viable exponential $f(R)$ gravity in the metric formalism with $f(R)=-\beta R_s (1-e^{-R/R_s})$. The latest sample of the Hubble parameter measurements with 23 data points is used to place bounds on this $f(R)$ model. A…

The 1/m_c and 1/m_b corrections to the \Lambda_b to \Lambda_c semi- leptonic decay are analyzed by QCD sum rules. Within the framework of heavy quark effective theory,the subleading baryonic Isgur-Wise func- tion of \Lambda_b to \Lambda_c…

Restrictive upper bounds on the heavy bottom squark mass when the gluino and one bottom squark are both light are based on the predicted reduction of $R_b$ (the fraction of $Z$ hadronic decays to $b \bar b$ pairs) in such a scenario. These…

We apply the new formulation of heavy quark effective field theory (HQEFT) to the inclusive decays of bottom hadrons. The long-term ambiguity of using heavy quark mass or heavy hadron mass for inclusive decays is clarified within the…

We study consequences of the non-forward amplitude for the semileptonic baryon decay Lambda_b into Lambda_c which will be measured in detail at LHCb. We obtain a sum rule for the subleading elastic Isgur-Wise (IW) function A(w) that…

We develop perturbative QCD factorization theorems for the exclusive semileptonic heavy baryon decay $\Lambda_b \to pl{\bar\nu}$, in which the relevant hadronic form factor is expressed as the convolution of a hard subamplitude with the…

We show how heavy quark symmetry constraints on doubly heavy baryon semileptonic decay widths can be used to test the validity of different quark model calculations. The large discrepancies in the results observed between different quark…

We study the $\Lambda(\alpha)$CDM models with $\Lambda(\alpha)$ being a function of the time-varying fine structure constant $\alpha$. We give a close look at the constraints on two specific $\Lambda(\alpha)$CDM models with one and two…

We present an analytical calculation of the $\alpha_s$ corrections for the coefficient of $\rho_D/m_Q^3$ term in the heavy quark expansion for the inclusive semileptonic decays of heavy hadrons, such as $B \to X_c \ell \bar{\nu}$. The full…
