The rare B decays Bs(d)-->\mu\mu, B-->K*\mu\mu and Bs-->\phi\gamma are studied using up to \sim 0.41 fb^{-1} of pp collisions at \sqrt{s} = 7 TeV collected by the \lhcb experiment in 2010 and 2011. A search for the decays Bs(d)-->\mu\mu, is…

Considering $Z(3930)$ and $X(4160)$ as $\chi_{c2}(2P)$ and $\chi_{c2}(3P)$ states, the semileptonic and nonleptonic of $B_c$ decays to $Z(3930)$ and $X(4160)$ are studied by the improved Bethe-Salpeter(B-S) Method. The form factors of decay…

In this work, we use pQCD approach to calculate 20 $B_{(s)}\to D^*_{s0}(2317)P(V)$ two body decays by assuming $D^*_{s0}(2317)$ as a $\bar cs$ scalar meson, where $P(V)$ denotes a pseudoscalar (vector) meson. These $B_{(s)}$ decays can…

The B-meson system is an interesting probe for the exploration of strong interactions, the quark-flavour sector of the Standard Model, and the search for new physics. In this programme, non-leptonic B decays, which are particularly…

We consider leptonic $B^-\to \ell^- \bar\nu_\ell$ and semileptonic $\bar B \to \pi \ell^- \bar\nu_\ell$, $\bar B \to \rho \ell^- \bar\nu_\ell$ decays and present a strategy to determine short-distance coefficients of New-Physics operators…

Reconstructing dynamic, time-varying scenes with computed tomography (4D-CT) is a challenging and ill-posed problem common to industrial and medical settings. Existing 4D-CT reconstructions are designed for sparse sampling schemes that…

We report new preliminary B Physics results obtained with 300,000 hadronic Z0 decays collected by the SLD experiment at the SLC between 1993 and 1997. Three analyses are presented: a measurement of B+ and B0 lifetimes, a study of the time…

Currently, the engineering of miniature spectrometers mainly faces three problems: the mismatch between the number of filters at the front end of the detector and the spectral reconstruction accuracy; the lack of a stable spectral…

In 3-D reconstruction problems, the image data obtained from cryo electron microscopy is the projection of many heterogeneous instances of the object under study (e.g., a virus). When the object is heterogeneous but has an overall symmetry,…
