The recent excess observed by CDF in $B^0_s to mu^{+} mu^{-}$ is interpreted in terms of a possible supersymmetric origin. An analysis is given of the parameter space of mSUGRA and non-universal SUGRA models under the combined constraints from LHC-7 with 165 pb$^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity, under the new XENON-100 limits on the neutralino-proton spin independent cross section and under the CDF $B^0_s to mu^{+} mu^{-}$ 90% C.L. limit reported to arise from an excess number of dimuon events. It is found that the predicted value of the branching ratio $B^0_s to mu^{+} mu^{-}$ consistent with all the constraints contains the following set of NLSPs: chargino, stau, stop or CP odd (even) Higgs. The lower bounds of sparticles, including those from the LHC, XENON and CDF $B^0_sto mu^+mu^-$ constraint, are exhibited and the shift in the allowed range of sparticle masses arising solely due to the extra constraint from the CDF result is given. It is pointed out that the two sided CDF 90% C.L. limit puts upper bounds on sparticle masses. An analysis of possible signatures for early discovery at the LHC is carried out corresponding to the signal region in $B^0_s to mu^{+} mu^{-}$. Implications of GUT-scale non-universalities in the gaugino and Higgs sectors are discussed. If the excess seen by the CDF Collaboration is supported by further data from LHCb or D0, this new result could be a harbinger for the discovery of supersymmetry.

With their 2010-2011 data set, the LHC experiments have started their quest to observe the rare decays B0_{s/d} -> mu+ mu-. This study will provide very sensitive probes of New Physics (NP) effects. NP discovery potential lies as well in the study of the decay B0_d -> K*0 mu+ mu-. Results and perspectives are presented for studies at the LHC of rare B decays involving flavor changing neutral currents.
A search for the rare decays $B^0_s tomu^+mu^-$ and $B^0 tomu^+mu^-$ is performed at the LHCb experiment. The data analysed correspond to an integrated luminosity of 1 fb$^{-1}$ of $pp$ collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV and 2 fb$^{-1}$ a t 8 TeV. An excess of $B^0_s tomu^+mu^-$ signal candidates with respect to the background expectation is seen with a significance of 4.0 standard deviations. A time-integrated branching fraction of ${cal B}(B^0_s tomu^+mu^-) = (2.9^{+1.1}_{-1.0})times 10^{-9}$ is obtained and an upper limit of ${cal B}(B^0 tomu^+mu^-) < 7.4times 10^{-10}$ at 95% confidence level is set. These results are consistent with the Standard Model expectations.

Rare leptonic decays of $B_{(s)}^0$ mesons are sensitive probes of New Physics effects. A combination of the CMS and LHCb analyses on the search of the rare decays $B_{s}^0 rightarrow mu^+mu^-$ and $B^0 rightarrow mu^+mu^-$ is presented. The branchin g fractions of $B_{s}^0 rightarrow mu^+mu^-$ and $B^0 rightarrow mu^+mu^-$ are measured to be $mathcal{B}(B_{s}^0 rightarrow mu^+mu^-) = (2.8 ,^{+0.7}_{-0.6}) times 10^{-9}$ and $mathcal{B}(B^0 rightarrow mu^+mu^-) = (3.9 ,^{+1.6}_{-1.4}) times 10^{-10}$ respectively. A statistical significances of $6.2,sigma$ is evaluated for $B_{s}^0 rightarrow mu^+mu^-$ from the Wilks theorem while a significance of $3.0, sigma$ is measured for $B^0 rightarrow mu^+mu^-$ from the Feldman-Cousins procedure.
We perform an analysis within the Standard Model of $B^{0,+} to K^{*0,+} mu^+ mu^-$ decays in light of the recent measurements from the LHCb experiment, showing that new data strengthen the need for sizable hadronic contributions and correlations amo ng them. We then extend our analysis to New Physics via the Standard Model Effective Theory, and carry out a state-of-the-art fit of available $b to s ell^+ ell^-$ data, including possible hadronic contributions. We find the case of a fully left-handed operator standing out as the simplest scenario with a significance of almost $6sigma$.
We investigate the possibility of indirectly constraining the $B^{+}to K^{+}tau^+tau^-$ decay rate using precise data on the $B^{+}to K^{+}mu^+mu^-$ dimuon spectrum. To this end, we estimate the distortion of the spectrum induced by the $B^{+}to K^{+ }tau^+tau^-to K^{+} mu^+mu^-$ re-scattering process, and propose a method to simultaneously constrain this (non-standard) contribution and the long-distance effects associated to hadronic intermediate states. The latter are constrained using the analytic properties of the amplitude combined with data and perturbative calculations. Finally, we estimate the sensitivity expected at the LHCb experiment with present and future datasets. We find that constraints on the branching fraction of $O(10^{-3})$, competitive with current direct bounds, can be achieved with the current dataset, while bounds of $O(10^{-4})$ could be obtained with the LHCb upgrade-II luminosity.
