Non-leptonic $B^0_s \rightarrow D_s^{\pm} K^{\mp}$ transitions are particularly interesting processes to test the Standard Model. As these decays occur via pure tree diagrams, they allow a theoretically clean determination of the angle…

Major new experimental efforts on detecting CP violation in $B$ decays will very soon go on the air. Recent developments suggest that final state interaction phases in exclusive decays of $B$ are unlikely to be small indicating the…

We investigate the impact of new physics beyond the Standard Model to the $s \rightarrow d \gamma$ process, which is responsible for the short-distance contribution to the radiative decay $\Otogamma$. We study three representative…

Exploring correlations between the CP asymmetries of $B^0_d\to\pi^0K_{\rm S}$ following from an isospin relation, we uncover new tensions with the Standard Model in data for neutral $B\to\pi K$ decays. Should this intriguing picture…

As is well known, $B^0_{d,s}$--$\bar B^0_{d,s}$ mixing offers a profound probe into the effects of physics beyond the Standard Model. The data obtained at the $e^+e^-$ $B$ factories have already provided valuable insights into the…

Rare $B$, $D$ and $K$ decays provide interesting probes of the Standard Model (SM), with a potential sensitivity to New Physics (NP) higher than other, more common, decays. Their experimental measurement is challenging, and their…

I provide a (personal) review of the current hints for physics beyond the Standard Model, called ``anomalies'', obtained both at the intensity frontier (flavour and electroweak precision observables) and in direct LHC searches. This…

The increasing number of flavour anomalies calls for the investigation of new processes where tensions similar to the observed ones could emerge. Observables sensitive to physics beyond the Standard Model need to be identified. We discuss…

Contributions to B - \bar B mixing from physics beyond the standard model may be detected from CP-violating asymmetries in B decays. There exists the possibility of large new contributions that cannot be detected by first generation…

The interplay of flavour and collider physics is entering a new era with the start-up of the LHC. During the past few years rare B decays and in particular b -> s gamma transitions have been extensively used and provided exciting…

The recent results of the CLEO Collaboration on both inclusive and exclusive radiative $B$ decays are combined with those of the UA2 Collaboration on $W\gamma$ production to highly constrain the anomalous trilinear gauge couplings of the…

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…

We review many of the contributions of the CLEO experiment to tau physics. Topics discussed are: branching fractions for major decay modes and tests of lepton universality; rare decays; forbidden decays; Michel parameters and spin physics;…

I review the current status of measurements involving semi-tauonic $B$ meson decay at the $B$-factories. I briefly discuss the experimental methods and highlight the importance of background contributions especially from poorly understood…

Six major frameworks have emerged attempting to describe particle physics beyond the Standard Model. Despite their different theoretical genera, these frameworks have a number of common phenomenological features and problems. While it will…

The phenomenon of $B^0_q$-$\bar{B}^0_q$ mixing ($q=d,s$) provides a sensitive probe for physics beyond the Standard Model. We have a careful look at the determination of the Unitarity Triangle apex, which is needed for the Standard Model…

For any new physics possibly emerging in the future B experiments, the problem is how to extract the signals from the SM background. We consider the decay $b\to s s\bar d$ which is very small in the SM. In the MSSM this decay is possibly…

\lhcb is one of the four major experiments at the Large Hadron Collider (\lhc) at CERN. It is custom built to look for CP violation and New Physics in rare decays of heavy flavour hadrons, like the B and D systems. Rare decays that occur…

CP violation in B decays provides a powerful tool to probe physics from beyond the Standard Model. A theoretical overview of recent developments of benchmark channels is given, ranging from non-leptonic to rare leptonic and semileptonic…

The inclusive $B \to X_s \nu \bar\nu$ decay rate, on which no experimental bound exists to date, can be constrained by searching for large missing energy events in $B$ decays. Carefully examining the experimental and theoretical aspects of…
