Abstract

Motivated by the powerful capability of measurement for the bb-flavored hadron rare decays at LHC and SuperKEKB/Belle-II, the nonleptonic Bˉ\bar{B}^{\ast} {\to} DDˉD\bar{D}^{\ast}, DρD{\rho^-}, DKDK^{\ast-}, πD{\pi}D^{\ast} and KDKD^{\ast} weak decays are studied in detail. With the amplitudes calculated with factorization approach and the form factors of BB^{\ast} transition into pseudoscalar meson evaluated with the BSW model, branching fractions and polarization fractions are firstly presented. Numerically, the CKM-favored Bˉq\bar{B}_{q}^{\ast} {\to} DqDsD_{q}D_{s}^{{\ast}-} and DqρD_{q}{\rho}^{-} decays have large branching fractions, \sim 10810^{-8}, which should be sought for with priority and firstly observed by LHC and Belle-II experiments. The Bˉq\bar{B}^{\ast}_q {\to} DqKD_qK^{\ast} and DqρD_q{\rho} decays are dominated by the longitudinal polarization states. While, the parallel polarization fractions of Bˉq\bar{B}^{\ast}_q {\to} DqDˉD_q\bar{D}^{\ast} decays are comparable with the longitudinal ones, numerically, ff_{\parallel} ++ fLf_{L} {\simeq} 95\% and fL:ff_{L}:f_{\parallel} \simeq 5:45:4. Some comparisons between Bˉq0\bar{B}^{*0}_q \to DqVD_q V and their corresponding Bˉq0\bar{B}^{0}_q \to DqVD^*_q V decays are performed, and the relation fL,(Bˉ0DV)fL,(Bˉ0D+V) f_{L,\parallel}(\bar{B}^{\ast 0}\to D V)\simeq f_{L,\parallel}(\bar{B}^0\to D^{\ast +} V^-) is presented. Besides, with the implication of SU(3)SU(3) flavor symmetry, some useful ratios Rdu R_{\rm du} and Rds R_{\rm ds} are discussed in detail, and suggested to be verified experimentally.
