The most recent measurements of the observables $R_{D^{(*)}}$ are in tension with the Standard Model offering hints of New Physics in $brightarrow c ell bar{ u}_{ell}$ transitions. Motivated by these results, in this work we present an analysis on their $brightarrow u ell bar{ u}_{ell}$ counterparts (for $ell=e, ~mu, ~tau$). Our study has three main objectives. Firstly, using ratios of branching fractions, we assess the effects of beyond the Standard Model scalar and pseudoscalar particles in leptonic and semileptonic $B$ decays ($B^-rightarrow ell^- bar{ u}_{ell}$, $bar{B}rightarrow pi ell bar{ u}_{ell}$ and $bar{B}rightarrow rho ell bar{ u}_{ell}$). Here a key role is played by the leptonic $B$ processes, which are highly sensitive to new pseudoscalar interactions. In particular, we take advantage of the most recent measurement of the branching fraction of the channel $B^-rightarrow mu^-bar{ u}_{mu}$ by the Belle collaboration. Secondly, we extract the CKM matrix element $|V_{ub}|$ while accounting simultaneously for New Physics contributions. Finally, we provide predictions for the branching fractions of yet unmeasured leptonic and semileptonic $B$ decays.

We propose a method for a QCD based calculation of one-particle inclusive decays of the form B to bar D X or B to bar D^* X. It is based on the heavy mass limit and a short distance expansion of the amplitudes, which yield a power series in the param eter 1/M^2_X for the spectra and in Lambda_QCD m_b/(m_b - m_c)^2 for the rates. We study the leading term of this expansion for the case of the semi--leptonic decays B to bar D X l^+ u.

We report on form factors for the B->K l^+ l^- semi-leptonic decay process. We use several lattice spacings from a=0.12 fm down to 0.06 fm and a variety of dynamical quark masses with 2+1 flavors of asqtad quarks provided by the MILC Collaboration. T hese ensembles allow good control of the chiral and continuum extrapolations. The b-quark is treated as a clover quark with the Fermilab interpretation. We update our results for f_parallel and f_perp, or, equivalently, f_+ and f_0. In addition, we present new results for the tensor form factor f_T. Model independent results are obtained based upon the z-expansion.
Semi-leptonic $B$ decays provide promising channels to test the Standard Model, search for signs of new physics, or determine fundamental parameters like CKM matrix elements. We present an update on our calculation of short distance contributions to GIM suppressed rare $B$ decays focusing in particular on $B_sto phi ell^+ ell^-$ decays. Furthermore we show first results for our calculation of $B_{(s)}to D_{(s)}^{(*)}ell u$ semi-leptonic decays involving $bto c$ transitions. Our calculations are based on RBC-UKQCDs 2+1 flavor domain-wall fermion and Iwasaki gauge field configurations featuring three lattice spacings in the range $1.73$ GeV $le a^{-1} le 2.77$ GeV and pion masses down to the physical value. We calculate the form factors by simulating $b$-quarks using the relativistic heavy quark action, create light $u/d$ and $s$ quarks with standard domain-wall kernel, and use optimised Mobius domain-wall fermions for charm quarks.
The study of lepton flavor universality violation (LFUV) in semitauonic $b$-hadron decays has become increasingly important in light of longstanding anomalies in their measured branching fractions, and the very large datasets anticipated from the LHC and Belle II. In this review, we undertake a comprehensive survey of the experimental environments and methodologies for semitauonic LFUV measurements at the $B$-factories and LHCb, along with a concise overview of the theoretical foundations and predictions for a wide range of semileptonic decay observables. We proceed to examine the future prospects to control systematic uncertainties down to the percent level, matching the precision of Standard Model (SM) predictions. Furthermore, we discuss new perspectives and caveats on combinations of the LFUV data and revisit the world averages for the ${cal R}(D^{(*)})$ ratios. Here we demonstrate that different treatments for the correlations of uncertainties from $D^{**}$ excited states can vary the current $3sigma$ tension with the SM within a $1sigma$ range. Prior experimental overestimates of $D^{**}tau u$ contributions may further exacerbate this. The precision of future measurements is also estimated; their power to exploit full differential information, and solutions to the inherent difficulties in self-consistent new physics interpretations of LFUV observables, are briefly explored.
A test of lepton universality, performed by measuring the ratio of the branching fractions of the $B^{0} rightarrow K^{*0}mu^{+}mu^{-}$ and $B^{0} rightarrow K^{*0}e^{+}e^{-}$ decays, $R_{K^{*0}}$, is presented. The $K^{*0}$ meson is reconstructed in the final state $K^{+}pi^{-}$, which is required to have an invariant mass within 100$mathrm{,MeV}c^2$ of the known $K^{*}(892)^{0}$ mass. The analysis is performed using proton-proton collision data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of about 3$mathrm{,fb}^{-1}$, collected by the LHCb experiment at centre-of-mass energies of 7 and 8$mathrm{,TeV}$. The ratio is measured in two regions of the dilepton invariant mass squared, $q^{2}$, to be begin{eqnarray*} R_{K^{*0}} = begin{cases} 0.66~^{+~0.11}_{-~0.07}mathrm{,(stat)} pm 0.03mathrm{,(syst)} & textrm{for } 0.045 < q^{2} < 1.1~mathrm{,GeV^2}c^4 , , 0.69~^{+~0.11}_{-~0.07}mathrm{,(stat)} pm 0.05mathrm{,(syst)} & textrm{for } 1.1phantom{00} < q^{2} < 6.0~mathrm{,GeV^2}c^4 , . end{cases} end{eqnarray*} The corresponding 95.4% confidence level intervals are $[0.52, 0.89]$ and $[0.53, 0.94]$. The results, which represent the most precise measurements of $R_{K^{*0}}$ to date, are compatible with the Standard Model expectations at the level of 2.1--2.3 and 2.4--2.5 standard deviations in the two $q^{2}$ regions, respectively.
