Based on the factorization approach, we show that the CLEO data for the ratio $\Gamma(B\to\psi K^*)/\Gamma(B\to \psi K)$ and the CDF measurement of the fraction of longitudinal polarization in $B\to\psi K^*$ can be accounted for by the…
The modified perturbative approach in which transverse degrees of freedom as well as Sudakov suppressions are taken into account, is applied to $B$ decays into two $\pi$ mesons. The influence of various model parameters (CKM matrix…
We consider rare semileptonic decays of a heavy $D$-meson into a light vector meson in the framework of QCD factorization. In contrast to the corresponding $B$-meson decays, the naive factorization hypothesis does not even serve as a first…
We study the heavy-light mesons within basis light-front quantization. The resulting mass spectra of $D$, $D_s$, $B$, and $B_s$ agree reasonably well with experiments. We also predict states which could be measured in the near future. In…
The form factor of Lambda_b^0 baryons is estimated using 3.46 10^6 hadronic Z decays collected by the DELPHI experiment between 1992 and 1995. Charmed Lambda_c^+ baryons fully reconstructed in the pK-pi+, pK0_S, and Lambda pi+pi+pi- modes,…
A realistic estimate of the cusp effect in the eta->3pi0 decay is required for the forthcoming high precision experiments. The predictions for the size of this effect are given within the framework of nonrelativistic effective field theory.
The charmless three-body decay modes $B^{\pm} \rightarrow K^{\pm} \pi^{+} \pi^{-}$, $B^{\pm} \rightarrow K^{\pm} K^{+} K^{-}$, $B^{\pm} \rightarrow \pi^{\pm} K^{+} K^{-}$ and $B^{\pm} \rightarrow \pi^{\pm} \pi^{+} \pi^{-}$ are reconstructed…
We study the decays of $B_{(s)}$ mesons into light pseudoscalar mesons under the $SU(3)$ flavour symmetry. Assuming exact $SU(3)$ symmetry at the level of the amplitudes leads to a simple parameterization. Using the available experimental…
