Rescattering effects can modify the dependence on the weak phase $\gamma = -{\rm Arg}(V^*_{ub}V_{ud}/V^*_{cb} V_{cd})$ of the ratio of rates for $B^{\pm} \to K \pi^\pm$ and $B \to K^\pm \pi^\mp$. A test for these effects based on the…

We derive the dominant part of the O(\alpha_s^2) correction to the photon energy spectrum in the inclusive decay B-> X_s+gamma. The detailed knowledge of the spectrum is important for relating the theoretical calculations of the B-> X_s +…
We study the three body radiative decay $B_s\to \phi \bar K^0 \gamma$ by introducing the $\phi K$ pair distribution amplitudes (DAs) in the perturbative QCD approach. This nonperturbative inputs, the two meson DAs, is very important to…
The angle gamma of the standard CKM unitarity triangle can be determined from B -> D K decays with a very small irreducible theoretical error, which is only due to second-order electroweak corrections. We study these contributions and…

The self-energy and vertex QED radiative corrections to the parity nonconservation (PNC) amplitude in atoms are obtained using the perturbation theory in powers of (alpha Z). The calculated linear in (alpha Z) term gives -0.6 % for the PNC…

We study the radiative leptonic $B_c\to \gamma\ell\bar\nu$ decays in the nonrelativistic QCD effective field theory, and consider a fast-moving photon. As a result the interactions with the heavy quarks can be integrated out, and thus we…
Recent results in radiative B decays from the Belle and BaBar collaborations are discussed. New measurements of the decay rate and CP asymmetries in b -> s gamma and b -> d gamma decays are presented, together with measurements of the…
We calculate the branching ratios of $B\to K_1\gamma$ at next-to-leading order (NLO) of $\alpha_s$ where $K_1$ is the orbitally excited axial vector meson. The NLO decay amplitude is divided into the vertex correction and the hard spectator…
It is shown that the inclusive rate of the rare weak radiative decays $B \to X_s \gamma$ contains a series of nonperturbative corrections, whose `short distance' scale is set by $m_c^{-1}$, rather than by $m_b^{- 1}$. The first correction…
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…
The process $p \pbar \rightarrow W^{\pm}\gamma + X \rightarrow \ell^\pm \nu \gamma + X$ is calculated to ${\cal O}(\alpha_s)$ for general $CP$ conserving $WW\gamma$ couplings. At the Tevatron center of mass energy, the QCD corrections to…
Recently published measurements of the branching ratios ${\cal B}(\psi(1S)\to\ga \eta_C(1S))$ and ${\cal B}(\psi(2S)\to\ga \eta_C(1S))$ by the CLEO collaboration are examined in the context of a potential model that includes both…
The ${\cal O}(\alpha_s)$ QCD corrections to the three-body decay width of the charged Higgs $\Gamma$($H^+\to W^+b\bar{b}$) are discussed in the MSSM model. Our calculations indicate that the standard QCD corrections to the three-body decay…
We investigate the $B \to K^{*}\pi$ decays, one of hardly understandable processes among charmless B-meson decays, within the perturbative QCD method. Owing to the dynamically enhanced mechanism in PQCD, we obtain large branching ratios and…
We calculate the amplitudes of $b\to s$ transition in extension of the Standard Model with $Wtb$ anomalous couplings. We found that i) there exist the Ward identity violating terms in effective vertix of $b\to s\gamma$. The terms, which…
We calculate the branching ratio of $\bar{B}^0 \to \Lambda_c^+ \bar{p}$ in the PQCD approach. Most previous model calculations obtained branching ratios significantly larger than experimental data. We find that the predicted branching ratio…
A QCD relativistic potential model is employed to compute the decay rate and the photon spectrum of the process $B^- \to \mu^- {\bar \nu}_\mu \gamma$. The result ${\cal B}(B^- \to \mu^- {\bar \nu}_\mu \gamma) \simeq 1 \times 10^{-6}$…
