We calculate the branching ratios and polarization fractions of the $B \to a_1 b_1$ decays in the perturbative QCD(pQCD) approach at leading order, where $a_1$($b_1$) stands for the axial-vector $a_1(1260)[b_1(1235)]$ state. By combining…
The exclusive semileptonic $B\to K_{1}(1270) \ell^{+}\ell^{-}$ ($\ell=\mu , \tau$) decays are analyzed in variants of two Higgs double models (THDMs). The mass eigenstates $K_{1}(1270)$ and $K_{1}(1400)$ are the mixture of two axial-vector…
I give an overview of the theory of hadronic nonleptonic B decays into two light mesons. Using the soft-collinear effective theory (SCET), a factorization theorem for these processes has been proven to leading order in 1/mb. The…

In this article we propose two novel 3D finite element models, denoted method A and B, for electron and hole Drift-Diffusion (DD) current densities. Method A is based on a primal-mixed formulation of the DD model as a function of the…
We suggest a new method to analyse the rare $D_{(s)}\to P \ell^+\ell^-$ decays ($P=\pi,K$), combining QCD light-cone sum rules (LCSR) with hadronic dispersion relations. As our main study case, we consider the $D^+\to\pi^+\ell^+\ell^-$ mode…

We demonstrate that the polarization fractions of most tree-dominated $B\to VV$ decays can be simply understood by means of kinematics in the heavy-quark or large-energy limit. For example, the longitudinal polarization fractions $R_L$ of…
