In this work, we discuss the contribution of the mesonic loops to the decay rates of $\chi_{c1}\to \phi\phi,\,\omega\omega$ which are suppressed by the helicity selection rules and $\chi_{c1}\to \phi\omega$ which is a double-OZI forbidden…

We report a study of the semileptonic decays $D^0 \rightarrow \bar{K}^0\pi^-\ell^+\nu_{\ell}$ (where $\ell=e,~\mu$) based on a sample of $20.3~\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ annihilation data collected at a center-of-mass energy of 3.773~GeV…
We analyze the decay $B\to \phi K$ within the framework of QCD-improved factorization. We found that although the twist-3 kaon distribution amplitude dominates the spectator interactions, it will suppress the decay rates slightly. The weak…
The $D_s \rightarrow n \pi$ measured branching could lead to information on $u, d$ quark masses if it is dominated by the (helicity suppressed) $D_s \rightarrow u \bar d$ annihilation channel. The data would then suggest anomalously high…

The known ratio of the branching fractions for D_s^* --> D_s pi^0 and D_s^* --> D_s gamma may be used to extract the coupling of eta mesons to strange quarks once the value of the pi^0-eta mixing angle is known. This requires that realistic…
