The rare decay [Formula: see text] plays a key role for the testing of the Standard Model. It is pointed out that the sizable decay width difference ΔΓsof the Bs-meson system affects this channel in a subtle way. As a consequence, its calculated Standard Model branching ratio has to be upscaled by about 10%. Moreover, the sizable ΔΓsmakes a new observable through the effective [Formula: see text] lifetime accessible, which probes New Physics in a way complementary to the branching ratio and adds an exciting new topic to the agenda for the high-luminosity upgrade of the LHC. Further probes of New Physics are offered by a CP-violating rate asymmetry. Correlations between these observables and the [Formula: see text] branching ratio are illustrated for specific models of New Physics.

We study the effect of both Z and Z′ mediated flavor-changing neutral currents (FCNCs) on the Λb→Λℓ+ℓ-(ℓ = μ, τ) rare decay. We find the branching ratio is reasonably enhanced from its Standard Model value due to the effect of both Z and Z′ mediated FCNCs, and gives the possibility of new physics beyond the Standard Model. The contribution of Z′ boson depends upon the precise value of MZ′.

Abstract In this paper we consider the decay D+ → π+ℓ+ℓ−, addressing in particular the resonance contributions as well as the relatively large contributions from the weak annihilation diagrams. For the weak annihilation diagrams we include known results from QCD factorisation at low q2 and at high q2, adapting the existing calculation for B decays in the Operator Product Expansion. The hadronic resonance contributions are obtained through a dispersion relation, modelling the spectral functions as towers of Regge-like resonances in each channel, as suggested by Shifman, imposing the partonic behaviour in the deep Euclidean. The parameters of the model are extracted using e+e− → (hadrons) and τ → (hadrons) + ντ data as well as the branching ratios for the resonant decays D+ → π+R(R → ℓ+ℓ−), with R = ρ, ω, and ϕ. We perform a thorough error analysis, and present our results for the Standard Model differential branching ratio as a function of q2. Focusing then on the observables FH and AFB, we consider the sensitivity of this channel to effects of physics beyond the Standard Model, both in a model independent way and for the case of leptoquarks.

We show that for a heavy vector-like quark model with a down type isosinglet, branching ratio for [Formula: see text] decay is enhanced by more than [Formula: see text] as compared to that in the Standard model when QCD corrections to next-to-leading order are incorporated. In a left–right symmetric model (LRSM) along with a heavy vector-like fermion, enhancement of this order can be achieved at the bare (QCD uncorrected) level itself. We propose that a measurement of the photon polarization could be used to signal the presence of such new physics in spite of the large long distance effects. We find that there is a large region within the allowed parameter space of the model with a vector-like quark and an additional left–right symmetry, where, the photon polarization can be dominantly right-handed.

Recently, many discrepancies between the Standard Model (SM) predictions and experimental results have been found in [Formula: see text] quark transitions. Motivated by these discrepancies, we investigated the semileptonic [Formula: see text] decay in [Formula: see text] model. In this paper, we have estimated different decay observables such as branching ratio, lepton flavor universality (LFU) ratio [Formula: see text] and forward–backward asymmetry in the SM as well as in the [Formula: see text] model. In [Formula: see text] model, we find significant deviations from the SM for the observables except for the forward–backward asymmetry. This deviation gives us a possible indication of new physics (NP).

The decay $ {K^ + } \to {\pi ^ + }v\bar v $, with a very precisely predicted branching ratio of less than 10−10 in the Standard Model framework, is one of the best candidates to reveal indirect effects of new physics at the highest mass scales. The NA62 experiment at CERN SPS is designed to measure the branching ratio of such decay with a decay-in-flight technique, novel for this channel. The main goal of NA62 is to measure such Branching Ratio of $ {K^ + } \to {\pi ^ + }v\bar v $ with an accuracy better than 20%. This will be achieved by collecting up to 100 $ {K^ + } \to {\pi ^ + }v\bar v $ events with a background contamination at the level of 10%. The NA62 detector was commissioned in 2014 and 2015 and the experiment took physics data from 2015 to 2018. NA62 has already published the result of the 2016 data analysis. The 2017 data analysis is in progress, the single event sensitivity reached and the evaluation of the main backgrounds will be shown in this contribution.

In recent years, Bs →τ+τ- rare decay has attracted a lot of attention since it is very sensitive to the structure of standard model (SM) and potential source of new physics beyond SM. In this paper, we study the effect of both Z and Z′-mediated flavor-changing neutral currents on the Bs →τ+τ- decay. We find the branching ratio B(Bs→τ+τ-) is enhanced relative to SM prediction, which would help to explain the recently observed CP-violation from like-sign dimuon charge asymmetry in the B system.

Neutral K-meson system is analyzed in the framework of SU(2) (isospin: τ)×SU(2) (hypercharge spin: ζ) symmetry. Four neutral K-mesons exist and among them there is a longlived CP-even state which can decay into the 2π or the π0 e+e− state. The branching ratio of the latter mode is expected to be much larger than in the standard model.

Abstract Interest in searches for heavy neutral leptons (HNLs) at the LHC has increased considerably in the past few years. In the minimal scenario, HNLs are produced and decay via their mixing with active neutrinos in the Standard Model (SM) spectrum. However, many SM extensions with HNLs have been discussed in the literature, which sometimes change expectations for LHC sensitivities drastically. In the NRSMEFT, one extends the SM effective field theory with operators including SM singlet fermions, which allows to study HNL phenomenology in a “model independent” way. In this paper, we study the sensitivity of ATLAS to HNLs in the NRSMEFT for four-fermion operators with a single HNL. These operators might dominate both production and decay of HNLs, and we find that new physics scales in excess of 20 TeV could be probed at the high-luminosity LHC.

Inspired by the potential prospects of high-luminosity dedicated colliders and the high enthusiasms in searching for new physics in the flavor sector at the intensity frontier, the [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] weak decays are studied with the perturbative QCD approach. It is found within the standard model that the branching ratios for the concerned processes are tiny, about [Formula: see text], and far beyond the detective ability of current experiments unless there exists some significant enhancements from a novel interaction.

We examine the possible unparticle effects on [Formula: see text] associated with [Formula: see text] decays by minimum-[Formula: see text] fitting. Recent measurements from Belle and LHCb are included in this analysis. While it is true that the new experimental results of [Formula: see text] get closer to the Standard Model (SM) predictions, there is still room for new physics and unparticles are also one possibility. Our best-fit values are [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], which are still far from the SM values by more than [Formula: see text] or almost [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text]. We also find that the unparticle effects are quite safe to render the branching ratio [Formula: see text] less than 10%.
