Semileptonic D(s) -meson decays in the light of recent data
Inspired by recent improved measurements of charm semileptonic decays at BESIII, we study a large set of $D({D}_{s})$-meson semileptonic decays where the hadron in the final state is one of ${D}^{0}$, $\ensuremath{\rho}$, $\ensuremath{\omega}$, ${\ensuremath{\eta}}^{(\ensuremath{'})}$ in the case of ${D}^{+}$ decays, and ${D}^{0}$, $\ensuremath{\phi}$, ${K}^{0}$, ${K}^{*}(892{)}^{0}$, ${\ensuremath{\eta}}^{(\ensuremath{'})}$ in the case of ${D}_{s}^{+}$ decays. The required hadronic form factors are computed in the full kinematical range of momentum transfer by employing the covariant confined quark model developed by us. A detailed comparison of the form factors with those from other appro…
Probing new physics in B¯0→D(*)τ−ν¯τ using the longitudinal, transverse, and normal polarization components of the tau lepton
We study the longitudinal, transverse, and normal polarization components of the tau lepton in the decays ${\overline{B}}^{0}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{D}^{(*)}{\ensuremath{\tau}}^{\ensuremath{-}}{\overline{\ensuremath{\nu}}}_{\ensuremath{\tau}}$ and discuss their role in searching for new physics (NP) beyond the standard model (SM). Starting with a model-independent effective Hamiltonian including non-SM four-Fermi operators, we obtain experimental constraints on different NP scenarios and investigate their effects on the polarization observables. In the SM the longitudinal and transverse polarizations of the tau lepton differ substantially from the corresponding zero lepton mass values of $…
