The B -> pi K Puzzle and its Relation to Rare B and K Decays
, 2003 The Standard-Model interpretation of the ratios of charged and neutral B-> pi K rates, R_c and R_n, respectively, points towards a puzzling picture. Since these observables are affected significantly by colour-allowed electroweak (EW) penguins, this ``B -

Effects of New Physics on CP Violation in B Decays
, 2003 We discuss two models with 1 extra CP phase in $b\leftrightarrow s$ transition. The CP phase $\arg (V_{t^\prime s}V_{t^\prime b})$ with fourth generations, previously ignored, could impact on $b\to s\ell^+\ell^-$, $\Delta m_{B_s}$ and $\sin2\Phi_{B_s ...
