We present Standard Model predictions for lepton flavour universality ratios of inclusive $B\to X_{(c)} \ell \bar\nu_\ell$. For the $\ell=\mu,e$, these ratios are very close to unity as expected. For the $\tau$ mode, we update the SM prediction for the branching ratio including power-corrections in the heavy-quark expansion up to $1/m_b^3$. These inclusive ratios serve as an important cross-check of the exclusive $B\to D^{(*)}\ell\bar\nu_\ell$ modes, in which tensions exists between the predictions and measurements in those modes.

Predictions for $b$-baryon lifetimes at NNLO-QCD
NNLO-QCD corrections to the free b-quark decay and NLO corrections to dimension-five operators reduce uncertainties in HQE predictions for b-baryon lifetimes, yielding excellent agreement with experiment.

Probing New Physics and CP Violation in $\nu_\tau n \to \Lambda_c \tau^- (\pi^- \nu_\tau)$ and $\bar\nu_\tau p \to \Lambda \tau^+ (\pi^+ \bar\nu_\tau)$
An azimuthal asymmetry in the pion from tau decays in specific neutrino-hyperon processes provides a CP-odd signal for beyond-Standard-Model physics encoded in dimension-six operators.
