We measure the branching fraction of the radiative B- decay B(B- -> phi K- gamma) = (3.46 +/- 0.57^{+0.39}_{-0.37}) 10^-6, and set an upper limit on the radiative B0 decay B(B0 -> phi K0 gamma) < 2.71 10^-6 at 90% confidence level. We also…
After a brief review of B_s^0 - \bar B_s^0 oscillations, we discuss the weak decays B_s^0 -> J/\psi\phi and B_s^0 -> J/\psi f_0(980) and the ratio R_{f_0/\phi} of their decay rates in the light of recent measurements by the LHCb, D0 and CDF…
We report on a search for B0bar --> D0 K(*)0bar decays based on 85 10^6 BBar events collected with the Belle detector at KEKB. The B0bar --> D0 K0bar and B0bar --> D0 K*0bar decays have been observed for the first time with the branching…
We study the charmless decays B to Lambda Lambdabar h, where h stands for pi^+, K^+,K^0,K^{*+}, or K^{*0}, using a 605 fb^{-1} data sample collected at the Upsilon(4S)resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric energy e^+ e^-…

With the full $\babar$ data sample of 465 million BaBar pairs, we observe the decays B+- ->phi(1020) K_1(1270)+- and B+- ->phi(1020) K_2*(1430) +-. We measure the branching fractions (6.1+-1.6+-1.1)\times 10^{-6} and (8.4+- 1.9+- 0.9)\times…
We present the results of a search for the radiative decay (B -> K eta' gamma) and find evidence for (B^+ -> K^+ eta' gamma) decays at the 3.3 standard deviation level with a partial branching fraction of (3.6 +/- 1.2 +/- 0.4) x 10e-6,…
We search for the $B^0\to p\bar{\Sigma}^0\pi^-$ decay with $\bar{\Sigma}^0 \to \bar{\Lambda}\gamma$, where the $\gamma$ is not measured, using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 711 $\rm{fb^{-1}}$ which contains 772…
We have searched for the decay B^+ -> omega l^+ nu in 78 fb^-1 of Y(4S) data (85.0 million BBbar events) accumulated with the Belle detector. The final state is fully reconstructed using the omega decay into pi^+ pi^- pi^0 and the detector…

We report a study of the decay $B^0\rightarrow D K^+\pi^-$ followed by $D\rightarrow K^-\pi^+$, where $D$ indicates $D^0$ or $\bar{D}^0$. We reconstruct the $D K^+\pi^-$ state in a phase space corresponding to $D K^{*}(892)^0$. The…
We calculate the branching ratio of $D^0 \to \phi \bar K^0$ decay using the so-called perturbation QCD approach based on $k_T$ factorization. Our result shows this branching ratio is $(8.7 \pm1.4)\times 10^{-3}$, which is consistent with…
Using 58 million $J/\psi$ events collected with the Beijing Spectrometer (BESII) at the Beijing Electron-Positron Collider, the decays $J/\psi\to \gamma\phi\rho$ and $J/\psi\to \gamma\omega\rho$ are searched for, and upper limits on their…

Implications of recent CLEO measurements of hadronic charmless B decays are discussed. (i) Employing the Bauer-Stech-Wirbel (BSW) model for form factors as a benchmark, the $B\to\pi^+\pi^-$ data indicate that the form factor $F_0^{B\pi}(0)$…
