The rare B_s-> ϕ\ell^+ \ell^- decay is investigated by using the most general model independent effective Hamiltonian for $\ell= μ, τ$. The calculated $Br(B_s \rar ϕμ^+ μ^-) = 1.92 \times 10^{-6}$ is in consistent with the experimental upper bound. The dependencies of the branching ratios and polarization asymmetries of leptons and combined lepton-antilepton asymmetries on the new Wilson coefficients are presented. The analysis shows that the branching ratios and the lepton polarization asymmetries are very sensitive to the scalar and tensor type interactions. The results obtained in this work will be very useful in searching new physics beyond the standard model.
Many exclusive $c\to d/s\ell^+ν_\ell~(\ell=e,μ,τ)$ transitions have been well measured, and they can be used to test the theoretical calculations. Motivated by this, we study the $D\to P/V/S\ell^+ν_\ell$ decays induced by the $c\to d/s\ell^+ν_\ell$ transitions with the SU(3) flavor symmetry approach, where $P$ denotes the pseudoscalar meson, $V$ denotes the vector meson, and $S$ denotes the scalar meson with a mass below $1$ $GeV$. The different decay amplitudes of the $D\to P\ell^+ν_\ell$, $D\to V\ell^+ν_\ell$ or $D\to S\ell^+ν_\ell$ decays can be related by using the SU(3) flavor symmetry an…
Using the massive helicity formalism we calculate the five-body average square amplitude of the decays $τ^{-}\to \ell_i^{-} \ell_i^{+} \ell_j^{-} \barν_{j} ν_τ$ $(\ell=e,\,μ)$ within the Standard Model (SM), we then introduce a dimension-five effective vertex $Γ^{ττγ}$ in order to determine the feasibility of imposing limits on the tau anomalous magnetic dipole moment ($a_τ$) via the current or future experimental measurements of the branching ratio for the decay $τ^{-}\to e^{-} e^{+} e^{-} \barν_{e} ν_τ$.
The form factors of the $Λ_{b} \to N^\ast \ell^+ \ell^-$ decay are calculated in the framework of the light cone QCD sum rules. In the calculations the contribution of the negative parity $Λ_b^\ast$ baryon is eliminated by constructing the sum rules for different Lorentz structures. Furthermore the branching ratio of the semileptonic $Λ_b \to N^\ast \ell^+ \ell^-$ decay is calculated. The numerical study for the branching ratio of the $Λ_{b} \to N^\ast \ell^+ \ell^-$ decay indicates that it is quite large and could be measurable at future planned experiments to be conducted at LHCb.
In this paper we investigate the next-to-leading power contribution to the $B_s \to γγ$ and $B_s \to γ\ell\bar{\ell}$ decays from the strange quark mass effect with the dispersion approach which is QCD inspired and more predictive. We have presented the analytic expression of the quark mass contribution in the $B_s \to γγ$ and $B_s \to γ\ell\bar{\ell}$ decays, together with a new term that is missed in the previous study. The numerical results of the strange quark mass contribution to the $B_s \to γγ$ decay is about 6% relative to the total branching ratio, while it is relatively small in the …
We calculate the differential branching fraction, lepton forward-backward asymmetry and direct CP asymmetry for $B_{d,s}\toγ\ell\bar{\ell}$ decays with an energetic photon. We employ factorization methods, which result in rigorous next-to-leading order predictions in the strong coupling at leading power in the large-energy/heavy-quark expansion, together with estimates of power corrections and a resonance parameterization of sub-leading power form factors in the region of small lepton invariant mass $q^2$. The $B_{d,s}\toγ\ell\bar{\ell}$ decay shares features of the charged-current decay $B_u …
We study a set of exclusive decay modes of the Standard Model Higgs boson into a vector meson and a dilepton pair: $h\to V \ell^+ \ell^-$, with $V=Υ, J/ψ,ϕ$, and $\ell=μ, τ$, determining the decay rates, the dilepton mass spectra and the $V$ longitudinal helicity fraction distributions. In the same framework, we analyze the exclusive modes into neutrino pairs $h\to V ν\bar ν$. We also discuss the implications of the recent CMS and ATLAS results for the lepton flavor-changing process $h\to τ^+ μ^-$ on the $h\to V τ^+ μ^-$ decay modes.
We study the effects of the identical leptons in the final state of the $B^+\to \ell^+ \ell^- \ell^+\barν_{\ell}$ decay. The amplitude of the process is described by the same form factors as the amplitude of the ${B\to \ell \ell \ell'\barν'_{\ell}}$ decay for non-identical leptons in the final state. However, the differential distributions are strongly different, as the ${B^+\to \ell^+ \ell^- \ell^+\barν_{\ell}}$ amplitude contains both the direct ($M_a$) and the exchange ($M_b$) diagrams. We calculate a number of the differential distirbutions. In particular, we propose an interesting observa…
Form factors of the rare $Λ_{b}(Λ_{b}^*)\to N\ell^{+}\ell^{-}$ decays are calculated in the framework of the light cone QCD sum rules by taking into account of the contributions from the negative parity baryons. Using the obtained results on the form factors, the branching ratios of the considered decays are estimated. The numerical survey for the branching ratios of the $Λ_b \rar N\ell^+\ell^- $ and $Λ_b^\ast \rar N\ell^+\ell^- $ decays indicate that these transitions could be measurable in LHCb in near future. Comparison of our predictions on the form factors and branching ratios with those …
Inspired by the recent hints of lepton flavor universality violation in $b\to s\ell\ell$ and $b\to c\ellν$ transitions, we study lepton flavor violating exclusive $Λ_b\toΛ\ell_1^+\ell_2^-$ ($\ell_1\neq \ell_2$) decay, which is forbidden in the Standard Model. Starting from a general effective Hamiltonian for a $b\to s\ell_1^+\ell_2^-$ transition that includes vector and axial-vector operators, and scalar and pseudo-scalar operators, we derive a two-fold decay distribution of $Λ_b\toΛ\ell_1^+\ell_2^-$. The distribution helps us to construct the differential branching ratio and the lepton side f…
A set of exclusive decays of the Higgs boson into a vector meson and a dilepton pair ($h\to V \ell^+ \ell^-$, with $V=Υ, J/ψ,ϕ$, and $\ell=μ, τ$) are studied in the framework of the Standard Model. We have evaluated the decay rates, the dilepton mass spectra and the $V$ longitudinal helicity fraction distributions. In the same framework, we considered the exclusive modes $h\to V ν\bar ν$ and the implications of the CMS and ATLAS results for the lepton flavor-changing process $h\to τ^+ μ^-$ on the $h\to V τ^+ μ^-$ decay modes.
The rare exclusive dileptonic $Λ_{b}\to Λ\ell^{+}\ell^{-}$ $(\ell =μ, τ)$ decays are investigated in the general two-Higgs-doublet model of type III. A significant enhancement to the branching ratios, differential branching ratios, leptons forward-backward asymmetry, and the $Λ$ baryon polarizations over the standard model is obtained. Measurements of these quantities will be useful for establishing the two-Higgs doublet model.
Polarized and Unpolarized Lepton Pair Forward-backward Asymmetries in $\overline{B}\rightarrow \overline{K}_{0}^{*}(1430) \ell^+\ell^-$ and $\overline{B}\rightarrow \overline{K} \ell^+\ell^-$ Decays in Two Higgs Doublet Model
We present the fully general, model independent study of a few rare semileptonic $B$ decays that get dominant contributions from $W$-annihilation and $W$-exchange diagrams, in particular $B^0 \to \bar{D}^0 \ell^+\ell^-$, where $\ell = e,μ$. We consider the most general Lagrangian for the decay, and define three angular asymmetries in the Gottfried-Jackson frame, which are sensitive to new physics. We show how these angular asymmetries can be easily extracted from the distribution of events in the Dalitz plot for $B \to D \ell^+ \ell^-$ decays. Especially a non-zero forward-backward asymmetry w…
Analysis of Various Polarization Asymmetries In The Inclusive $b\to s \ell^+ \ell^-$ Decay In The Fourth-Generation Standard Model
本文系统地分析了四代夸克标准模型中包含$b \rar s \ell^+ \ell^-$衰变的各种极化不对称性。我们发现，对于$μ$和$τ$通道，各种不对称性对新的混合和夸克质量都很敏感。从SM值的大的偏差。因此，$b \rar s \ell^+ \ell^-$衰变是一个有价值的工具，用于搜索SM以外的物理，特别是在间接搜索第四代夸克（$t', b')$）。
The rare semileptonic $B_c \rightarrow D_{s,d}\, \ell^+ \ell^-$ decays are studied in the universal extra dimension with a single extra dimension scenario. The sensitivity of differential and total branching ratios, polarization asymmetries of final state leptons to the compactification parameter is presented, both for muon and tau decay channels. Comparing with the standard model, the obtained results indicate that there are new contributions to the physical observables. Considering the ability of available experiments, it would be useful to study these effects.
We consider the exclusive $P_{\ell 4}$ decays, $P\to (P_1P_2)_V\ell ν_{\ell}$, where the subindex $V$ means that the invariant mass of the pseudoscalar pair is taken within a small window around the mass of the vector meson $V$. Pole contributions beyond the dominant $P\to V(\to P_1P_2)\ellν_{\ell}$ amplitude of $P_{\ell 4}$ decays are identified, which, in turn, affects the determination of the CKM matrix elements $|V_{qq'}|$. We evaluate the effects of those contributions in the extraction of bottom and charm quark mixings. An application to $B\to (ππ)_ρ\ell ν_{\ell}$ data from Belle collabo…
In anticipation of abundant $B^*$ data samples at high-luminosity heavy-flavor experiments in the future, the tree-dominated semileptonic $\bar{B}^*_{u,d,s} \to P \ell^- \barν_\ell$ $(P=D\,,D_s\,,π\,,K)$ decays are studied within the Standard Model. After a detailed calculation of the helicity amplitudes, the theoretical predictions for branching fraction~(decay rate), lepton spin asymmetry, forward-backward asymmetry and ratio $R_D^{\ast(L)}$ are firstly presented. It is found that the CKM-favored $\bar{B}^* \to D \ell^- \barν_\ell$ decays have relatively large branching fractions of ${\cal O…
These proceedings review the differential decay rates and the branching ratios of the tau and muon decays $τ\to \ell \ell' \ell' ν\barν$ (with $\ell,\ell'=μ,e$) and $μ\to e e e ν\bar ν$ in the Standard Model at NLO. These five-body leptonic decays are a tool to study the Lorentz structure of weak interactions and to test lepton flavour universality. They are also a source of SM background to searches for the lepton-flavour-violating decays $μ\to e e e$ and $τ\to \ell \ell' \ell'$. Even if the shift in the branching ratios induced by radiative corrections turns out to be small and of order 1% -…

Semileptonic decays $Λ_c^+ \to Λ\ell^+ ν_\ell\,\,(\ell=e,μ)$ in the covariant quark model and comparison with the new absolute branching fraction measurements of Belle and BESIII
We evaluate the decays $\ell_1^\pm \to \ell_2^\pm γ$, $Z \to \ell_1^+ \ell_2^-$, and $h \to \ell_1^+ \ell_2^-$, where $\ell_1$ and $\ell_2$ are charged leptons with different flavours and $h$ is the scalar particle with mass 125.25 GeV, in a two-Higgs-doublet model where all the Yukawa-coupling matrices conserve the lepton flavours but the Majorana mass terms of the right-handed neutrinos break the flavour lepton numbers. We find that (1) the decays $\ell_1^\pm \to \ell_2^\pm γ$ require large Yukawa couplings and very light right-handed neutrinos in order to be visible, (2) the decays $Z \to \…
We investigate the rare electroweak penguin transition $b \to s \ell^+ \ell^-$ though angular analyses in baryonic $b$-decays. Instead of performing likelihood fits, that might suffer from ambiguity issues, we employ the moments technique, which is a simple counting experiment. The method is known to be robust under low statistics conditions and avoids the ambiguity problem by construction. We provide the full set of 32 orthonormal moments for $Λ^0_b\to p h^-\ell^+\ell^-$, where $h\in\{π,K\}$, for a polarized $Λ^0_b$ and the dihadron system $[ph]$ being in a spin-1/2 state.
