Using 11.6 pb^{-1} of data collected in the energy range 0.984--1.06 GeV by CMD-2 at VEPP-2M, the cross section of the reaction e+e- to pi+pi-pi+pi- has been studied. For the first time an interference pattern was observed in the energy…
Based on $(2.712\pm0.014)\times10^9$ $\psi(3686)$ events collected by the BESIII collaboration, evidence of the hadronic decay $h_c\to K_S^0K^+\pi^-+c.c.$ is found with a significance of $4.3\sigma$ in the $\psi(3686)\to\pi^0 h_c$ process.…
We analyze the rare decay mode $B \to \phi \pi $, which is a pure penguin induced process, receiving dominant contribution from the electroweak penguins. Thus the standard model branching ratio is expected to be very small, which makes it…
Based on $(2712.4\pm14.1)\times10^{6}$ $\psi(3686)$ events collected with the BESIII detector, we study the decays $h_{c}\to3(\pi^{+}\pi^{-})\pi^{0}$, $h_{c}\to2(\pi^{+}\pi^{-})\omega$, $h_{c}\to2(\pi^{+}\pi^{-})\pi^{0}\eta$,…
Recent data on branching ratios for \psi(2S) decays to J/\psi\pi^+\pi^-, J/\psi\pi^0\pi^0 and J/\psi\eta are reviewed. An alternative treatment of data is proposed to get rid of the logical inconsistency which occurs in original…
We present measurements of the branching fractions for the $J/\psi$ meson decays into the $\rho\eta$ and $\phi\eta$ final states, based on data collected with the KEDR detector at the VEPP-4M collider. The data set consisted of 4.93 million…
In this paper, we calculate the branching ratios for B^0\to D_s^+\pi^-, B^+\to D_s^+\pi^0, B^0\to D_s^{*+}\pi^- and B^+\to D_s^{*+}\pi^0 decays in the perturbative QCD factorization approach. We find that the calculated branching ratios of…
A search for the invisible decays of $\omega$ and $\phi$ mesons in $J/\psi\to \omega (\phi)\eta$ transitions has been performed by the BESIII Collaboration very recently. Inspired by this experimental study, we compute the lowest order…
Motivated by the recent measurements on nonleptonic $J/{\psi}$ weak decays at BESIII and the potential prospects of $J/{\psi}$ meson at the high-luminosity heavy-flavor experiments, the branching ratios of the two-body nonleptonic…
In this note, we calculate the branching ratio of B_c\to J/\psi K in the framework of perturbative QCD approach based on k_T factorization. This decay can occur only via tree level diagrams in the Standard Model. We find that the branching…

The first observation of the $\Xi_b^0 \to J/\psi \Xi^- \pi^+$ decay and the most precise measurement of the branching fraction of the $\Lambda_b^0 \to J/\psi \Xi^- K^+$ decay are reported, using proton-proton collision data from the LHCb…
Using a sample of 58 million $J/\psi$ events collected with the BESII detector at the BEPC, more than 100,000 $J/\psi \to p\bar p \pi^0$ events are selected, and a detailed partial wave analysis is performed. The branching fraction is…
For a number of years, there has been a certain inconsistency among the measurements of the branching ratios and CP asymmetries of the four $B \to \pi K$ decays ($B^+ \to \pi^+ K^0$, $B^+ \to \pi^0 K^+$, $B^0 \to \pi^- K^+$, $B^0 \to \pi^0…
The current knowledge on the $D_{s}^{\ast}$ meson are very limited. Besides the dominant electromagnetic decays, the $D_{s}^{\ast}$ weak decays are legal and offer the valuable opportunities to explore the wanted $D_{s}^{\ast}$ meson. In…
Interpretation of CP violation measurements using charmonium decays, in both the B0 and Bs systems, can be subject to changes due to "penguin" type diagrams. These effects can be investigated using measurements of the Cabibbo-suppressed…
