We investigate $B \to K_0^*(1430) K^*$ decays in the perturbative QCD(pQCD) factorization approach, where $B$ denotes $B_u$, $B_d$ and $B_s$ meson respectively, and the scalar $K_0^*(1430)$ is considered as a meson based on the model of…

We analyze the B->KK decays with the soft-gluon corrections by using the QCD light-cone sum rules (LCSR). Although QCD factorization approach calculates the leading order factorization parts and the radiative corrections from hard- gluon…

We report measurements of the radiative decay B --> K^*\gamma. The analysis is based on a data sample containing 85.0*10^6 B meson pairs collected by the Belle detector at the KEKB storage ring. We measure branching fractions of Br(B^0 -->…

If the fourth generation fermions exist, the new quarks could influence the branching ratio of the rare $B\to K^{*}\nu\bar{\nu}$ decay. Two possible solutions of the fourth generation CKM factor $(V^{*}_{\acute{t}s}V_{\acute{t}b})^(\pm)$…

We discuss the electromagnetic-penguin-dominated radiative B decays $B \to X_s + \gamma, ~B^{\pm (0)} \to K^{*\pm (0)} + \gamma$, and $B_s \to \phi + \gamma$ in the context of the standard model (SM) and their Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa…

Implications of the recent new measurements of $B\to K_1\gamma$ by Belle are examined. It is shown that the new branching ratio $\calB(B\to K_1(1270)\gamma)$ requires very large form factor compared to the theoretically predicted one. This…

We show that the exclusive decay $B\rightarrow K^{\ast}\gamma$ can be related to the semileptonic decay $B\rightarrow\rho e\bar{\nu}$ using heavy-quark symmetry and $SU(3)$ flavor symmetry. A direct measurement of the $q^{2}$-spectrum for…

We present a re-analysis of the decay $\bsgamma$ in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model with radiatively induced breaking of $SU(2) \times U(1)$. We extend this analysis to regions of the supersymmetric parameter space wider than…

We calculate the branching ratios of $B_{s,d}\to \gamma \gamma$ decay in the sequential fourth generation model. We find that the theoretical values of the branching ratios, ${\rm BR}(B_{s}\to\gamma\gamma)$, including the contributions of…

The $B_s \to D_s^{(*)\pm} K^\mp$ decays allow a theoretically clean determination of $\phi_s+\gamma$, where $\phi_s$ is the $B^0_s$-$\bar B^0_s$ mixing phase and $\gamma$ the usual angle of the unitarity triangle. A sizable $B_s$ decay…

The persistent tensions between inclusive and exclusive determinations of $|V_{cb}|$ and $|V_{ub}|$ weaken the power of theoretically clean rare $K$ and $B$ decays in the search for new physics (NP). We demonstrate how this uncertainty can…

We study the decays of $B_{s,d} \to l^+ l^- \gamma (l=e, \mu,\tau)$ within the light-front model. We calculate the tensor type form factors and use these form factors to evaluate the decay branching ratios. We find that, in the standard…

The B -> K^* gamma branching fraction is predicted using heavy quark spin symmetry at large recoil to relate the tensor and (axial-)vector form factors, using heavy quark flavor symmetry to relate the B decay form factors to the measured D…

Motivated by the experimental measurements of $D^0$ radiative decay modes we have proposed a model to study the $D^0\to \bar{K}^{*0}\gamma$ decay, by establishing a link with $D^0\to \bar{K}^{*0}V$ $(V=\rho^0,\, \omega)$ decays through the…

In this paper the next-to-leading order (NLO) corrections to $B_c$ meson exclusive decays to S-wave charmonia and light pseudoscalar or vector mesons, i.e. $\pi$, $K$, $\rho$, and $K^*$, are performed within non-relativistic (NR) QCD…
