We report a measurement of the inclusive semileptonic branching fraction of the B_s meson using data collected with the BaBar detector in the center-of-mass (CM) energy region above the Upsilon(4S) resonance. We use the inclusive yield of phi mesons and the phi yield in association with a high-momentum lepton to perform a simultaneous measurement of the semileptonic branching fraction and the production rate of B_s mesons relative to all B mesons as a function of CM energy. The inclusive semileptonic branching fraction of the B_s meson is determined to be B(B_s to l nu X)=9.5 (+2.5/-2.0)(stat)(+1.1/-1.9)(syst)%, where l indicates the average of e and mu.

Inclusive semileptonic B_s^0 -> X^+ l^- u decays are studied for the first time using a 23.6 fb^{-1} data sample collected on the Y(5S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric energy e^+ e^- collider. These decays are identified by the means of a lepton accompanied by a same-sign D_s^+ meson originating from the other B_s^0 in the event. The semileptonic branching fractions are measured in the electron and muon channels to be Bf(B_s^0 -> X^+ e^- u) = (10.9 pm 1.0 pm 0.9)% and Bf(B_s^0 -> X^+ mu^- u) = (9.2 pm 1.0 pm 0.8)%, respectively. Assuming an equal electron and muon production rate in B_s^0 decays, a combined fit yields an average leptonic branching fraction Bf(B_s^0 -> X^+ l^- u) = (10.2 pm 0.8 pm 0.9)%.
We report a measurement of the inclusive semileptonic $B_s^0$ branching fraction in a $121~fb^{-1}$ data sample collected near the $Upsilon(5S)$ resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric energy $e^+ e^-$ collider. Events containing $B_s^0$ pairs are selected by reconstructing a tag side $D_s^+$ and identifying a signal side lepton $ell^+$ ($ell = e, mu$) that is required to have the same-sign charge to ensure that both originate from different $B_s^0$ mesons. The $B_s^0 rightarrow X^- ell^+ u_ell$ branching fraction is extracted from the ratio of the measured yields of $D_s^+$ mesons and $D_s^+ ell^+$ pairs and the known production and branching fractions. The inclusive semileptonic branching fraction is measured to be $[9.6 pm 0.4text{(stat)} pm 0.7text{(syst)}]~%$.
The $B_s^0to J/psi K_S^0$ branching fraction is measured in a data sample corresponding to 0.41$fb^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity collected with the LHCb detector at the LHC. This channel is sensitive to the penguin contributions affecting the sin2$beta$ measurement from $B^0to J/psi K_S^0$ The time-integrated branching fraction is measured to be $BF(B_s^0to J/psi K_S^0)=(1.83pm0.28)times10^{-5}$. This is the most precise measurement to date.
Using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 567 pb$^{-1}$ collected at a center-of-mass energy of $sqrt{s}=4.6$ GeV with the BESIII detector, we measure the absolute branching fraction of the inclusive semileptonic $Lambda_c^+$ decay with a double-tag method. We obtain $mathcal{B}(Lambda_c^+ rightarrow X e^+ u_e) = (3.95pm0.34pm0.09)%$, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic. Using the known $Lambda_c^+$ lifetime and the charge-averaged semileptonic decay width of nonstrange charmed measons ($D^0$ and $D^+$), we obtain the ratio of the inclusive semileptonic decay widths $Gamma(Lambda_c^+ rightarrow X e^+ u_e)/bar{Gamma}(Drightarrow X e^+ u_e)= 1.26pm0.12$.
A measurement of the branching fraction of the decay $B_s^0 to K_S^0 K_S^0$ is performed using proton-proton collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5 $fb^{-1}$ collected by the LHCb experiment between 2011 and 2016. The branching fraction is determined to be BR($B_s^0 to K_S^0 K_S^0$) = [8.3 $pm$ 1.6 (stat) $pm$ 0.9 (syst) $pm$ 0.8 (norm) $pm$ 0.3 ($f_s/f_d$)] $times 10^{-6}$ , where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second is systematic, and the third and fourth are due to uncertainties on the branching fraction of the normalization mode $B^0 to phi K_S^0$ and the ratio of hadronization fractions $f_s/f_d$. This is the most precise measurement of this branching fraction to date. Furthermore, a measurement of the branching fraction of the decay $B^0 to K_S^0 K_S^0$ is performed relative to that of the $B_s^0 to K_S^0 K_S^0$ channel, and is found to be $frac{BR(B^0 to K_S^0 K_S^0)}{BR(B_s^0 to K_S^0 K_S^0)}$ = [7.5 $pm$ 3.1 (stat) $pm$ 0.5 (syst) $pm$ 0.3 ($f_s/f_d$)] $times 10^{-2}$.
