Description
We study the FCNC $B_s \to ϕγ, ϕν\bar ν$ and $Λ_b \to Λγ, Λν\bar ν$ transitions in the Standard Model and in a scenario with a single Universal Extra Dimension. In particular, we focus on the present knowledge of the hadronic uncertainties and on possible improvements. We discuss how the measurements of these modes can be used to constrain the new parameter involved in the extra dimensional scenario, the radius $R$ of the extra dimension, completing the information available from B-factories. The rates of these $b \to s$ induced decays are within the reach of new experiments, such as LHCb.
