Radiative and Electroweak Penguin decays of B mesons from Belle

Abstract

Radiative penguin and electroweak penguin decays of B mesons provide very sensitive test for new physics. In this talk, we present recent results in this subject from the Belle experiment. In particular, we will show the results of forward-backward asymmetry and other measurements from B --> K* l+ l- and time-dependent CP violations in B --> Xs gamma decays. We will also discuss other related results such as CKM-suppressed decays B --> Xd gamma, pi l+ l- along with their implications in the exploration of new physics.
