Symmetry-breaking corrections to heavy-to-light B meson form factors at large recoil
read the original abstract
Recently it has been shown that symmetries emerging in the heavy quark and large recoil energy limit impose various relations on form factors that parametrise the decay of B mesons into light mesons. These symmetries are broken by perturbative effects. In this paper we discuss the structure of heavy-to-light form factors including such effects and compute symmetry-breaking corrections to first order in the strong coupling. As an application of our results we consider the forward-backward asymmetry zero in the rare decay B -> V l^+ l^- and the possibility to constrain potential new physics contributions to the Wilson coefficient C_9.

QCD-factorization amplitudes from flavour symmetries: beyond the $SU(3)$ symmetric case
A data-driven SU(3)-breaking analysis of B to PP decays yields QCD-factorization amplitudes that resemble dynamical predictions and require no enhanced annihilation terms.

Semileptonic neutral current decays of $\Xi_b$ with dileptons or dineutrinos in the final state
Perturbative QCD calculations find that branching fractions for Ξ_b to Ξ lepton-pair decays lie within LHCb reach and that angular observables plus a specific ratio can constrain Wilson coefficients and extract |V_td/...

Symmetry-Breaking Effects on Form Factors and Observables in $B \to K_0^*(1430)\mu^+\mu^-$ Decay
Perturbative symmetry-breaking corrections shift the branching ratio and normal lepton polarization asymmetry by ~3% in B → K0*(1430) μ+μ−, so larger experimental deviations would indicate new physics.
