The recently measured B -> tau nu branching ratio allows to test the Standard Model by probing virtual effects of new heavy particles, such as a charged Higgs boson. The accuracy of the test is currently limited by the experimental error on BR(B -> tau nu) and by the uncertainty on the parameters fB and |Vub|. The redundancy of the Unitarity Triangle fit allows to reduce the error on these parameters and thus to perform a more precise test of the Standard Model. Using the current experimental inputs, we obtain BR(B -> tau nu)_SM = (0.84 +- 0.11)x10^{-4}, to be compared with BR(B -> tau nu)_exp = (1.73 +- 0.34)x10^{-4}. The Standard Model prediction can be modified by New Physics effects in the decay amplitude as well as in the Unitarity Triangle fit. We discuss how to disentangle the two possible contributions in the case of minimal flavour violation at large tan beta and generic loop-mediated New Physics. We also consider two specific models with minimal flavour violation: the Type-II Two Higgs Doublet Model and the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model.

The semileptonic decay channel B -> D tau nu is sensitive to the presence of a scalar current, such as that mediated by a charged-Higgs boson. Recently the BaBar experiment reported the first observation of the exclusive semileptonic decay B -> D tau
nu, finding an approximately 2-sigma disagreement with the Standard-Model prediction for the ratio R(D)=BR(B->D tau nu)/BR(B->D l nu), where l=e,mu. We compute this ratio of branching fractions using hadronic form factors computed in unquenched lattice QCD and obtain R(D) = 0.316(12)(7), where the errors are statistical and total systematic, respectively. This result is the first Standard-Model calculation of R(D) from ab initio full QCD. Its error is smaller than that of previous estimates, primarily due to the reduced uncertainty in the scalar form factor f_0(q^2). Our determination of R(D) is approximately 1-sigma higher than previous estimates and, thus, reduces the tension with experiment. We also compute R(D) in models with electrically charged scalar exchange, such as the type II two-Higgs doublet model. Once again, our result is consistent with, but approximately 1-sigma higher than, previous estimates for phenomenologically relevant values of the scalar coupling in the type II model. As a byproduct of our calculation, we also present the Standard-Model prediction for the longitudinal polarization ratio P_L (D)= 0.325(4)(3).
The measurement of B->tau nu at the B factories provides important constraints on the parameter tan beta/m_H^+- in the context of models with two Higgs doublets. Limits on this decay from e+e- collisions at the Z peak were sensitive to the sum of B->
tau nu and B_c->tau nu. Due to the possibly sizeable contribution from B_c->tau nu we suggest that a signal for this combination might be observed if the LEP L3 Collaboration used their total data of ~3.6 10^6 hadronic decays of the Z boson. Moreover, we point out that a future Linear Collider operating at the Z peak (Giga Z option) could constrain tan beta/m_H^+- from the sum of these processes with a precision comparable to that anticipated at proposed high luminosity B factories from B-> tau nu alone.
The rare decay B to K* (to K pi) mu+ mu- is regarded as one of the crucial channels for B physics since its angular distribution gives access to many observables that offer new important tests of the Standard Model and its extensions. We point out a
number of correlations among various observables which will allow a clear distinction between different New Physics (NP) scenarios. Furthermore, we discuss the decay B to K* nu anti-nu which allows for a transparent study of Z penguin effects in NP frameworks in the absence of dipole operator contributions and Higgs penguin contributions. We study all possible observables in B to K* nu anti-nu and the related b to s transitions B to K nu anti-nu and B to X_s nu anti-nu in the context of the SM and various NP models.
We present an improved Standard-Model (SM) prediction for the dilepton decay of the neutral pion. The loop amplitude is determined by the pion transition form factor for $pi^0togamma^*gamma^*$, for which we employ a dispersive representation that inc
orporates both space-like and time-like data as well as short-distance constraints. The resulting SM branching fraction, $ text{BR}(pi^0to e^+e^-)=6.25(3)times 10^{-8}$ , sharpens constraints on physics beyond the SM, including pseudoscalar and axial-vector mediators.
We estimate B(K -> pi nu nubar) in the context of the Standard Model by fitting for lambda_t = Vtd x V*ts of the `kaon unitarity triangle relation. We fit data from epsilon_K, the CP-violating parameter describing K-mixing, and a_{psi K}, the CP-viol
ating asymmetry in B -> J/psi K decays. Our estimate is independent of the CKM matrix element Vcb and of the ratio of Bs to Bd mixing frequencies. The measured value of B(K+ -> pi+ nu nubar) can be compared both to this estimate and to predictions made from the ratio of B mixing frequencies.
