We apply HQET to semi-leptonic $B$ meson decays into a variety of excited charm states. Using three realistic meson models with fermionic light degrees of freedom, we examine the extent that the sum of exclusive single charmed states…
Leptonic and semileptonic decays in the charm sector have been well studied in recent years. With the largest data sample near $D\bar D$ threshold, precision measurements of leptonic and semileptonic decays of charm meson and baryon are…
We consider the isospin breaking corrections to charmless semileptonic decays of B mesons. Both, the recently measured branching ratios of exclusive decays by the CLEO Collaboration and the end-point reion of the inclusive lepton spectrum…
We study (semi)leptonic rare charm decays and its opportunities in searches for physics beyond the Standard Model (BSM). In particular, we analyse the impact of potential BSM physics in $c\to ull'$ transitions, notably branching ratios,…
I briefly describe recent developments in the theoretical analysis of non leptonic and semileptonic B decays. For non leptonic transitions, I focus on factorization, from the naive formulation to the most recent achievements. As for…
Inspired by a series of unexpected measurements of semileptonic decays mediated via $b\rightarrow c $ charged current interactions, we explore semileptonic $B_c$ decays to the four lightest $P$-wave charmonium states, $\chi_{c0}, \chi_{c1},…
The most recent measurements of the observables $R_{D^{(*)}}$ are in tension with the Standard Model offering hints of New Physics in $b\rightarrow c \ell \bar{\nu}_{\ell}$ transitions. Motivated by these results, in this work we present an…
We study the impact of vector leptoquarks on the recent anomalies in semileptonic $B$ meson decays such as $R_K$ and $R_{D^{(*)}}$ etc. We constrain the leptoquark couplings by using the existing data on the branching ratios of $B_s \to l^+…
We give arguments in favor of the compatibility with standard physics of some large nonleptonic branching fractions in Cabibbo--forbidden $D^+$ decays, contrary to a recent claim in the literature.
In this contribution we compute some nonleptonic and semileptonic decay widths of $B_s$ mesons, working in the context of constituent quark models \cite{Albertus:2014gba, Albertus:2014bfa}. For the case of semileptonic decays we consider…
This talk is a short review on the theoretical issues and uncertainties in the calculation of partial decay rates in inclusive B decays. The main emphasis is on charmless semileptonic decays, the B -> X(s) gamma photon spectrum, and the…
We summarize the status of semileptonic and leptonic $B$ decays, including $|V_{cb}|$ and $|V_{ub}|$ exclusive and inclusive determinations, decays to excited states of the charm meson spectrum and decays into $\tau$ leptons.
The $b$ and the $c$ quark compete with each other in decays of the $B_c$-meson. We emphasize the need of obtaining reliable signals of $c \to s$ in order to assess the merits of the spectator approximation in calculating the relative…
Semileptonic $B$ meson decays into the four lightest excited charmed meson states ($D_0^*$, $D_1^*$, $D_1$, and $D_2^*$) and their counterparts with $s$ quarks are investigated, including the full lepton mass dependence. We derive the…
The inclusive charm hadron semileptonic branching fractions B(c to e) and B(c to mu) in Z to ccbar events have been determined using 4.4 million hadronic Z decays collected with the OPAL detector at LEP. A charm-enriched sample is obtained…
We study the semileptonic branching fraction of $B$-meson into higher resonance of charmed meson $D^{**}$ by using the Bjorken sum rule and the heavy quark effective theory(HQET). This sum rule and the current experiment of $B$-meson…
The semileptonic decay of a b-quark, b--> c l nu, is considered in the relativistic limit where the decay products are approximately collinear. Analytic results for the double differential lepton energy distributions are given for finite…
In the framework of general two-Higgs-doublet models, we calculate the branching ratios of various inclusive charmless b decays by using the low energy effective Hamiltonian including next-to-leading order QCD corrections, and examine the…
We study the lepton angular distributions in $B\to D^{(*)} \ell \nu_{\ell}$ decays. The lepton angular asymmetries in the decays with the general effective interactions are examined. We demonstrate that the asymmetries are sensitive to new…
Recent B physics results from LEP and SLD are reviewed. In particular, results of B lifetimes, semileptonic B decays, charm counting, CKM matrix elements, and mixing are presented.
