Electroweak penguin decays at LHCb

Abstract

Promising ways to search for New Physics effects in radiative penguin decays are in the angular analysis of $B_d\to K^{\ast 0}{\mu }^{+}{\mu }^{-}$, in the measurement of direct CP violation in $\B_{d} \rightarrow K^{*0}μ^{+}μ^{-}$ and a time dependent analysis of $B_s\to \varphi \gamma$. All of these studies are being pursued at LHCb. First results will be shown from the 2010 and early 2011 data, with particular emphasis on $B_d\to K^{\ast 0}{\mu }^{+}{\mu }^{-}$.
