We reemphasize that the ratio $R_{smu} equiv overline{mathcal{B}}(B_stomubarmu)/Delta M_s$ is a measure of the tension of the Standard Model (SM) with latest measurements of $overline{mathcal{B}}(B_stomubarmu)$ that does not suffer from the persistent puzzle on the $|V_{cb}|$ determinations from inclusive versus exclusive $bto cellbar u$ decays and which affects the value of the CKM element $|V_{ts}|$ that is crucial for the SM predictions of both $overline{mathcal{B}}(B_stomubarmu)$ and $Delta M_s$, but cancels out in the ratio $R_{smu}$. In our analysis we include higher order electroweak and QED corrections und adapt the latest hadronic input to find a tension of about $2sigma$ for $R_{smu}$ measurements with the SM independently of $|V_{ts}|$. We also discuss the ratio $R_{dmu}$ which could turn out, in particular in correlation with $R_{smu}$, to be useful for the search for New Physics, when the data on both ratios improves. Also $R_{dmu}$ is independent of $|V_{cb}|$ or more precisely $|V_{td}|$.

In this work, we perform a systematical investigation about the possible hidden and doubly heavy molecular states with open and hidden strangeness from interactions of $D^{(*)}{bar{D}}^{(*)}_{s}$/$B^{(*)}{bar{B}}^{(*)}_{s}$, ${D}^{(*)}_{s}{bar{D}}^{(*)}_{s}$/${{B}}^{(*)}_{s}{bar{B}}^{(*)}_{s}$, ${D}^{(*)}D_{s}^{(*)}$/${B}^{(*)}B_{s}^{(*)}$, and $D_{s}^{(*)}D_{s}^{(*)}$/$B_{s}^{(*)}B_{s}^{(*)}$ in a quasipotential Bethe-Salpeter equation approach. The interactions of the systems considered are described within the one-boson-exchange model, which includes exchanges of light mesons and $J/psi/Upsilon$ meson. Possible molecular states are searched for as poles of scattering amplitudes of the interactions considered. The results suggest that recently observed $Z_{cs}(3985)$ can be assigned as a molecular state of $D^*bar{D}_s+Dbar{D}^*_s$, which is a partner of $Z_c(3900)$ state as a $Dbar{D}^*$ molecular state. The calculation also favors the existence of hidden heavy states $D_sbar{D}_s/B_sbar{B}_s$ with spin parity $J^P=0^+$, $D_sbar{D}^*_s/B_sbar{B}^*_s$ with $1^{+}$, and $D^*_sbar{D}^*_s/B^*_sbar{B}^*_s$ with $0^+$, $1^+$, and $2^+$. In the doubly heavy sector, the bound states can be found from the interactions $(D^*D_s+DD^*_s)/(B^*B_s+BB^*_s)$ with $1^+$, $D_sbar{D}_s^*/B_sbar{B}_s^*$ with $1^+$, $D^*D^*_s/B^*B^*_s$ with $1^+$ and $2^+$, and $D^*_sD^*_s/B^*_sB^*_s$ with $1^+$ and $2^+$. Some other interactions are also found attractive, but may be not strong enough to produce a bound state. The results in this work are helpful for understanding the $Z_{cs}(3985)$, and future experimental search for the new molecular states.
Besides being important to determine Standard Model parameters such as the CKM matrix elements $|V_{cb}|$ and $|V_{ub}|$, semileptonic $B$ decays seem also promising to reveal new physics (NP) phenomena, in particular in connection with the possibility of uncovering lepton flavour universality (LFU) violating effects. In this view, it could be natural to connect the tensions in the inclusive versus exclusive determinations of $|V_{cb}|$ to the anomalies in the ratios $R(D^{(*)})$ of decay rates into $tau$ vs $mu, e$. However, the question has been raised about the role of the parametrization of the hadronic $B to D^{(*)}$ form factors in exclusive $B$ decay modes. We focus on the fully differential angular distributions of $bar B to D^* ell^-{bar u}_ell$ with $D^* to D pi$ or $D^* to D gamma$, the latter mode being important in the case of $B_s to D_s^*$ decays. We show that the angular coefficients in the distributions can be used to scrutinize the role of the form factor parametrization and to pin down deviations from SM. As an example of a NP scenario, we include a tensor operator in the $b to c$ semileptonic effective Hamiltonian, and discuss how the angular coefficients allow to construct observables sensitive to this structure, also defining ratios useful to test LFU.
We study R-parity violating contributions to the mixing parameter $y$ for $D^0 -bar D^0$ and $B^0_{d,s} - bar B^0_{d,s}$ systems. We first obtain general expressions for new physics contributions to $y$ from effective four fermion operators. We then use them to study R-parity contributions. We find that R-parity violating contributions to $D^0 - bar D^0$ mixing, and $B_{d}^0 - bar B_{d}^0$ to be small. There may be sizable contribution to $B_s^0 -bar B_s^0$ mixing. We also obtain some interesting bounds on R-parity violating parameters using known Standard Model predictions and experimental data.
Recently, the standard model predictions for the $B$-meson hadronic decays, $bar{B}^0 to D^{(ast)+}K^-$ and $bar{B}^0_s to D^{(ast)+}_s pi^-$, have been updated based on the QCD factorization approach. This improvement sheds light on a novel puzzle in the $B$-meson hadronic decays: there are mild but universal tensions between data and the predicted branching ratios. Assuming the higher-order QCD corrections are not huge enough to solve the tension, we examine several new physics interpretations of this puzzle. We find that the tension can be partially explained by a left-handed $W^prime$ model, which can be compatible with other flavor observables and collider bounds.
The decays $B_c^+ to B_{a} bar ell u_ell$ and $B_c^+ to B_{a}^{*}(to B_a gamma) bar ell u_ell$, with $a=s,d$ and $ell=e,mu$, are studied in the Standard Model (SM) and in the extension based on the low-energy Hamiltonian comprising the full set of dimension-$6$ semileptonic $c to s,d$ operators with left-handed neutrinos. Tests of $mu/e$ universality are investigated using such modes. The heavy quark spin symmetry is applied to relate the relevant hadronic matrix elements and to exploit lattice QCD results on $B_c$ form factors. Optimized observables are selected, and the pattern of their correlations is studied to identify the effects of the various operators in the extended low-energy Hamiltonian.
