Title:  Model Independent Determination of Photon Helicity in Radiative
$B\to K_{res}\gamma$ Decays

Abstract:  In the standard model, photons emitted in rare $b\to s\gamma$
decays are mostly left-handed, and therefore measurement of photon
polarization in exclusive $B$ decays could serves as a platform to
search for new physics beyond the standard model. In this talk, I will
discuss the recent progresses on rare $B$ decays, and present a
model-independent determination of photon helicity in radiative $B\to
K_{res}\gamma$ decays.
