Many known models, which generally use a factorization hypothesis, give a poor account of the decays B into J/psi + K(*). Usually there is a free overall factor, which is fit to the data, so that tests of the models rely upon ratios. The…

We investigate the simileptonic OZI-forbidden annihilation decays $B^-_c \to \eta^{'}(\eta ,\pi^0) l^- \bar{\nu}$ for $l=\mu,e$ in the perturbative QCD, and carry out a precise calculation without any approximation for the one-loop…

Estimates of the branching ratios for B_{d,s}->J/psi eta and B_{d,s}->eta l+l- are obtained by SU(3) relation to B_d->J/psi K and B_d->K l+l-, respectively, as functions of the eta mixing parameter, theta_P. Based on these estimates, a…
In this work, we calculate the $CP$-averaged branching ratios and direct $CP$-violating asymmetries of the quasi-two-body decays $B_{(s)}\to P \rho^\prime(1450), P\rho^{\prime\prime}(1700)\to P \pi\pi$ by employing the perturbative QCD…
Besides the conventional strong and electromagnetic decay modes, the $J/{\psi}$ particle can also decay via the weak interaction in the standard model. In this paper, nonleptonic $J/{\psi}$ ${\to}$ $D_{s,d}{\pi}$, $D_{s,d}K$ weak decays,…
Full expressions of the $B^0_d \to \pi^+ \pi^-$ and $B^0_d \to \pi^0 \pi^0$ amplitudes, given in terms of matrix elements of operators of the effective weak Hamiltonian, are used to study the dependence of the relevant branching ratios on…
In this paper, we calculate the branching ratios and CP-violating asymmetries for $B_{s}\to \rho^\pm K^\mp$, $B_{s}\to\rho^{0}\bar{K}^0 $ and $B_{s}\to\omega\bar{K}^0$ decays in the perturbative QCD (pQCD) factorization approach. The…
