Abstract

Rare B meson decays are an excellent probe for beyond the Standard Model physics. Two very sensitive processes are the Bs(d) -> \mu^{+} \mu^{-} and b -> s\mu^{+}\mu^{-} decays. We report recent results at a center of mass energy of sqrt{s} = 1.96 TeV from the CDF and D0 collaborations using between 3.7 fb^{-1} and 6.9 fb^{-1} taken during Run II of the Fermilab Tevatron Collider.
