We calculate the branching ratios and CP asymmetries for $B^0 \to \pi^+\rho^-$, $B^0 \to \rho^+\pi^-$, $B^+ \to \rho^+\pi^0$, $B^+ \to \pi^+\rho^0$, $B^0 \to \pi^0\rho^0$, $B^+ \to \pi^+\omega$ and $B^0 \to \pi^0\omega$ decays, in a…
We argue that the observation of a sizable direct CP asymmetry A_{CP} in the inclusive decays B -> X_s gamma would be a clean signal of New Physics. In the Standard Model, A_{CP} can be calculated reliably and is found to be below 1% in…
By assuming that the scalar meson $K_0^*(1430)$ belongs to the first excited states or the lowest lying ground states, we study the pure annihilation-type decays $B \to K_0^{*\pm}(1430)K^{(*)\mp}$ in the QCD factorization approach. Within…

The rare decays $B_s^0\to D^\pm \pi^\mp$ and $\bar B_s^0\to D^\mp \pi^\pm$ can occur only via annihilation type diagrams in the standard model. In this paper, we calculate branching ratios of these decays in perturbative QCD approach…
We study the direct CP violation effect in the decay mode $B^+ \to \phi K^+$. This decay mode is dominated by the loop induced $\bar b \to \bar s s \bar s$ penguin diagram with a tiny contribution from annihilation diagram. Therefore, the…
