Rare electroweak penguin processes provide a rich platform to search for new physics. Some deviations have recently been found between the rate and angular distribution of these processes measured by the LHCb experiment and theoretical predictions. In addition, LHCb has seen hints of lepton universality breaking in these rare processes. This talk will review these measurements and put them in...

Assuming Nature violates universality of lepton flavour interactions we explore different observables using the channel B->K*mumu that can provide specific information on the way this violation is implemented. Three different categories of observables are discussed: Qi observables (recently measured by Belle), Bi observables and M observables. We make particular emphasis on the capacity to...

In my talk I will discuss the latest LHCb results and implications from the rare B and strange decays.
Run1 of LHC has finished. The first results from Run 2 are announced every month. No definitive evidence has been found for New Physics at the TeV scale despite the compelling theoretical arguments. But the situation is far from dull - not all the anomalies have vanished with the...

Although no new heavy particles have been identified in the high-energy frontier yet, there are tantalizing tensions with the SM in B-meson decays measured at the LHCb and B factories. In particular, the b→ c τ ν transitions have been measured through the ratios RD( * ). The average of the measurements is enhanced with respect to the SM and it would correspond to the tree-level exchange of a...

An overview of the latest LHCb’s measurements in the charm physics sector is presented. This includes measurements of direct and indirect CP-violating observables and precise determination of mixing parameters in two-body $D^0$ decays, measurements of CP-violating observables in multi-body charm decays and searches of rare charm decays.

The BESIII experiment at the Beijing Electron Positron Collider (BEPCII) accumulated the world's largest data sample of $e^+e^-$ collisions at 3.773, 4.009, 4.18 and 4.6 GeV. Based on analyses of leponic and semileptonic decays of $D_{(s)}^+$ mesons, we measured CKM matrix elements $|V_{cs(d)}|$, the $D_{(s)}^+$ decay constants and the form factors of semi-leptonic $D$ decays. These are...

The anomalies recently found by the LHCb collaboration in B-meson decays seem to point towards the existence of new physics coupled non-universally to muons and electrons. A beyond-the-Standard-Model dynamics with these features can naturally arise in models with a warped extra-dimension that aim to solve the electroweak Hierarchy Problem. The attractiveness of this set-up is the fact that the...

The latest results from the LHCb experiment concerning CP violation in $b$ hadrons are presented. New measurements of the CP-violating observables $\gamma$ and $\phi_{s}$ will be discussed.
