Scalar mesons $a^0_0(980)$ and $f_0(980)$ can mix with each other through isospin violating effects, and the mixing intensity has been predicted at the percent level in various theoretical models. However the mixing has not been firmed…
In the SND experiment at VEPP-2M $e^+e^-$ collider the $\phi(1020)\to\pi^0\pi^0\gamma$ decay was studied and its branching ratio was measured: $B(\phi\to\pi^0\pi^0\gamma)=(1.221\pm 0.098\pm0.061)\cdot10^{-4}$. It was shown, that…
The Feynman amplitude for the decay of the $J/\psi$ meson into baryon-antibaryon can be written as a sum of three sub-amplitudes: a purely strong, a purely electromagnetic and a mixed strong-electromagnetic. Assuming that the strong and…
In this paper, an analysis of the $B_s\to \phi \ell^+ \ell^-$ rare decay is presented within the framework of the covariant confined quark model. The $B_s\to \phi$ transition form factors are calculated and then used to compute the…
The mixing of $S-D$ partial waves for the heavy meson pairs in the decays $\Upsilon(5S) \to [B^* \bar B+ {\rm c.c.}] \pi$ and $\Upsilon(5S) \to B^* \bar B^* \pi$ is considered. It is argued that this mixing, enhanced by the heavy meson…

We consider the ``second-class current'' decay $\tau^-\to\pi^-\eta\nu_\tau$ from several points of view. We first focus on the decay rate as expected within standard weak interaction and QCD due to isospin violation. The decay contributions…

Hadronic decay modes $D^0\to(\bar K^0, \bar K^{*0})\eta,\eta'$ and $(D^+,D_s^+)\to(\pi^+,\rho^+)\eta,\eta'$ are studied in the generalized factorization approach. Form factors for $(D,D_s^+)\to(\eta,\eta')$ transitions are carefully…
Our study focuses on the weak decay of $ D_s^+ \to p \overline{n} $, which is the only possible two-body baryonic decay in the $ D $ meson system. An analysis using perturbative quantum chromodynamics (pQCD) is challenging in this decay due…
Similar to other heavy flavor mesons, the weak decays of $D^*_{(s)}$ mesons can provide a platform to verify the standard model, explore new physics, and understand the mechanisms of weak interactions. At present, the theoretical and…
The semileptonic decays $\bar{B}\to D(D^*)\pi\ell\bar{\nu}$ are analyzed by heavy quark and chiral symmetries. The branching ratio is of order of a few percent for $\dpi$, but it is much smaller for $\dstar$, of order $10^{-4}-10^{-5}$. The…
