A search for the flavor-changing neutral-current decay $B^{+}to K^{+} ubar{ u}$ is performed at the Belle II experiment at the SuperKEKB asymmetric energy electron-positron collider. The results are based on a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $63,mbox{fb}^{-1}$ collected at the $Upsilon{(4S)}$ resonance and a sample of $9,mbox{fb}^{-1}$ collected at an energy $60mathrm{,Mekern -0.1em V}$ below the resonance. A novel measurement method is employed, which exploits topological properties of the $B^{+}to K^{+} ubar{ u}$ decay that differ from both generic bottom-meson decays and light-quark pair production. This inclusive tagging approach offers a higher signal efficiency compared to previous searches. No significant signal is observed. An upper limit on the branching fraction of $B^{+}to K^{+} ubar{ u}$ of $4.1 times 10^{-5}$ is set at the 90% confidence level.
This contribution illustrates a new search for the flavor-changing neutral-current decay ${B^+ to K^+ u bar u}$ performed by the Belle II experiment at the SuperKEKB asymmetric-energy electron-positron collider. In this study, a sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $63, rm{fb}^{-1}$ collected at the $rm Upsilon(4S)$ resonance and an additional sample of $9, rm{fb}^{-1}$ collected at an energy $60, rm MeV$ below the resonance are used. A novel technique, based on an inclusive tagging method and exploiting the topological features of the ${B^+ to K^+ u bar u}$ decay, is employed and it provides a higher signal efficiency with respect to the methods used in the previous searches. No significant signal is observed. An upper limit of $4.1 times 10^{-5}$ is set on the ${B^+ to K^+ u bar u}$ branching fraction at the $90, %$ confidence level.
We present the results of a search for the rare decays $Bto h uoverline{ u}$, where $h$ stands for $K^+,:K^0_{mathrm{S}},:K^{ast +},:K^{ast 0},:pi^+,:pi^0,:rho^+$ and $rho^{0}$. The results are obtained with $772times10^{6}$ $Boverline{B}$ pairs collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB $e^+ e^-$ collider. We reconstruct one $B$ meson in a semileptonic decay and require a single $h$ meson but nothing else on the signal side. We observe no significant signal and set upper limits on the branching fractions. The limits set on the $Bto K^0_{mathrm{S}} uoverline{ u}$, $B^0to K^{*0} uoverline{ u}$, $Bto pi^+ uoverline{ u}$, $B^0topi^0 uoverline{ u}$, $B^+torho^+ uoverline{ u}$, and $B^0torho^0 uoverline{ u}$ channels are the worlds most stringent.
We present a search for the rare leptonic decays $B^+ to e^+ u_e$ and $B^+ to mu^+ u_mu$, using the full $Upsilon(4S)$ data sample of $772times 10^6$ $Bbar{B}$ pairs collected with the Belle detector at the $rm {small KEKB}$ asymmetric-energy $e^+ e^-$ collider. One of the $B$ mesons from the $Upsilon(4S) to Bbar{B}$ decay is fully reconstructed in a hadronic mode, while the recoiling side is analyzed for the signal decay. We find no evidence of a signal in any of the decay modes. Upper limits of the corresponding branching fractions are determined as ${cal B}(B^+ to e^+ u_e)<3.5times 10^{-6}$ and ${cal B}(B^+ to mu^+ u_mu)<2.7 times 10^{-6}$ at 90$%$ confidence level.

The rare pion decays ${pi}^+{rightarrow}{mu}^+{ u}_{mu}{ u}bar{ u}$ and ${pi}^+{rightarrow}e^+{ u}_{e}{ u}bar{ u}$ are allowed in the Standard Model but highly suppressed. These decays were searched for using data from the PIENU experiment. A first result for ${Gamma}({pi}^+{rightarrow}{mu}^+{ u}_{mu}{ u}bar{ u})/{Gamma}({pi}^+{rightarrow}{mu}^+{ u}_{mu})<8.6{times}10^{-6}$, and an improved measurement ${Gamma}({pi}^+{rightarrow}{e}^+{ u}_{e}{ u}bar{ u})/{Gamma}({pi}^+{rightarrow}{mu}^+{ u}_{mu})<1.6{times}10^{-7}$ were obtained.
