We analyze the possibility of having new physics effects in the decay rate difference, $\Delta \Gamma_d$, of neutral $B_d$ mesons. Three different sources of enhancement are considered, CKM unitarity violations, beyond standard model effects in the tree-level dimension six operators $(\bar{d}p)(\bar{p}'b)$ with $p,p'=u,c$; and large enhancements of the almost unconstrained operators $(\bar{d}b)(\bar{\tau}\tau)$. We find that deviations of several hundred per cent from the standard model…

We critically review the assumption that no new physics is acting in tree-level B-meson decays and study the consequences for the ultimate precision in the direct determination of the…

We update the Standard-Model predictions for several quantities related to Bs−B¯s and Bd−B¯d mixing. The mass and width differences in the Bs system read ΔMSMs=(17.3±2.6)ps−1 and…

It is shown that like-sign dimuon charge asymmetry in semileptonic b-hadron decays differs by 3.2 standard deviations from the standard model prediction, and provides first evidence of anomalous CP violation in the mixing of neutral B mesons.
