We propose a new method to extract |Vtd/Vts| from the ratio of the decay distributions dR/ds = dB(B->Xdl+l-)/ds/dB(B->Xsl+l-)/ds. This ratio depends only on the KM ratio |Vtd/Vts| with 15% theoretical uncertainties, if dilepton invariant…

We examine the possibility for precise determination of |V_{ts}| (and |V_{td}/V_{ts}|) from the exclusive decays, $B --> K \ell^+ \ell^-, B --> K^* \ell^+ \ell^-$ (and $B --> \pi \ell^+ \ell^-, B --> \rho \ell^+ \ell^-$). We show that the…

We propose a new method for precise determination of |V_{td} / V_{ub}| from the ratios of branching ratios BR(B -> \rho \nu \bar \nu ) / BR(B ->\rho l \nu ) and BR(B -> \pi \nu \bar \nu ) / BR(B -> \pi l \nu ). These ratios depend only on…

We propose a method to extract the ratio $|V_{ts}/V_{td}|^2$ from a measurement of $\Delta \Gamma/\Gamma$ for the $B_s$ meson. This method is experimentally more sensitive than the conventional method for large values of $|V_{ts}|$ but…

We present an extraction of Vcb from a lattice calculation of the B->D* decay matrix elements. We obtain |Vcb| \sqrt{ \frac{ \tauB }{ 1.49 ps } } = 0.037^{+3 \ +5}_{-3 \ -5} from a single parameter fit to the new CLEO data. Email…

We propose a new method of extracting $V_{bu}$ from measurements of Semi-leptonic B decay which has much less theoretical uncertainties than conventional methods.

The rare decay B_s -> mu^+ mu^- provides an important constraint on possible deviations from the Standard Model in b-s-l-l interactions. The present weighted average of its branching ratio measurements amounts to (3.34 \pm 0.27) x 10^-9,…

The dominant theoretical uncertainty in extracting |V_td/V_ts| from the ratio of branching ratios R=B(B->(rho,omega)gamma)/B(B->K* gamma) is given by the ratio of form factors xi=T_1^{B->K*}(0)/T_1^{B->rho}(0). We re-examine xi in the…

We use existing measurements of $D^-\to K^{\ast0}\rho^-$ and $B\to \psi+K^\ast$, coupled with flavor independence of QCD, and with vector meson dominance to show that long distance contributions to $B\to \rho +\gamma$ are potentially very…

The prospects for a precise and model independent determination of $|V_{ub}|$ from inclusive and exclusive semileptonic B decays are reviewed.

Precision tests of the Standard Model and searches for New Physics in the quark flavor sector depend on accurate theoretical calculations of decay rates and spectra for rare, flavor-changing processes. The theoretical status and recent…

We investigate the radiative dileptonic decays $B_s(B_d)\to\gamma l^+l^-$ within the standard model. Using the constituent quark model, the branching ratios turn out to be around $5\times 10^{-9}$ for $B_s\to \gamma \mu^+\mu^- $ and around…

Various complications encountered in the process of attempting to extract the basic Standard Model parameters, m_s and V_us, from hadronic tau decay data are discussed. Preliminary results for V_us, based on sum rules displaying good…

We estimate statistical and systematic errors in the extraction of the CKM ratio |Vcd|/|Vcs| from exclusive D-meson semileptonic decays using lattice QCD and anticipated new experimental results.

It was recently pointed out that the decays B^+ --> D^{*+}_s gamma and B^+ --> D^{*+} gamma can be used for an extraction of |V_{ub}|. The theory of these decays is poorly understood. It was shown that in a world of almost degenerate b and…

Using a sample of 471 million BBbar events collected with the BaBar detector, we study the sum of seven exclusive final states B->X_s(d) gamma, where X_s(d) is a strange (non-strange) hadronic system with a mass of up to 2.0GeV/c^2. After…

A preliminary measurement of |Vcb| and the branching fraction BR(B0 -> D* l nu_l) has been performed based on a sample of about 55,700 B0 -> D* l nu_l decays recorded with the BaBar detector. The decays are identified in the D* -> D0 pi…

The $\Delta S = 2$ $b \to \bar d ss$ transition proceeds via the box - diagram in the Standard Model with a branching ratio calculated to be below $10^{-11}$, thus providing an appropriate testing ground for physics beyond the Standard…

We present an updated determination of the values of $\vert V_{cb} \vert$, $R(D^*)$ and $\vert V_{ub} \vert/\vert V_{cb} \vert$ based on the new data on semileptonic $B \to D^* \ell \nu_\ell$ decays by the Belle and Belle-II Collaborations…

Already in the past, hadronic tau decays have served as an interesting source to obtain information on the parameters of the Standard Model, like the strong coupling alpha_s or the strange quark mass. Below it will be shown that the…
