I discuss three B physics results with potential for exhibiting new flavour-changing interactions: (1) the time-dependent CP asymmetry in B\to J/\psi K_S decay; (2) branching fractions and CP asymmetries in B\to \pi\pi, \pi K decays; (3)…
We present the first evidence of charmless decays of the $B_s^0$ meson, the decay \phiphi, and a measurement of the Branching Ratio $\BR(\phiphi)$ using $180 {\rm pb}^{-1}$ of data collected by the \cdfii experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron…
A time-dependent angular analysis of $B_s^0\to\psi(2S)\phi$ decays is performed using data recorded by the LHCb experiment. The data set corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 3.0\invfb collected during Run 1 of the LHC. The…
Results are presented on J/psi radiative decays to pi^+pi^- and pi^0pi^0 based on a sample of 58M J/psi events taken with the BESII detector. Partial wave analyses are carried out using the relativistic covariant tensor amplitude method in…
Based on $(10087\pm44)\times 10^6$ $J/\psi$ events recorded with the BESIII detector, we search for the rare charmonium weak decays $J/\psi\to D_{s}^{-}\rho^{+}+c.c.$ and $J/\psi\to D_{s}^{-}\pi^{+}+c.c.$ No signal is observed, and upper…
The decays $B^0_s \rightarrow J/\psi \pi^+\pi^- K^+ K^-$ are studied using a data set corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 9fb$^{-1}$, collected with the LHCb detector in proton-proton collisions at centre-of-mass energies of 7, 8…
We study time dependent CP asymmetries in B^0_{d,s} decays in the left-right model with spontaneous breakdown of CP. Due to the new contributions to B^0-\bar B^0 mixing the CP asymmetries can be substantially modified. Moreover, there can…
The radiative decays of the B mesons may have a significant contribution from the transition b -> s J/psi followed by the J/psi-photon conversion. The size of this contribution is re-analysed in the light of a phenomenological model for the…
The determination of the CP-violating phase $\phi_s$ in $B^0_s \rightarrow J/\psi \phi$ decays is one of the key goals of the LHCb experiment. Its value is predicted to be very small in the Standard Model but can be significantly enhanced…
The observation of new suppressed Bs decays, Bs-> J/Psi K* (892)0 and Bs->J/Psi Ks, and the measurement of their branching ratios are presented. This measurement is based on an integrated luminosity of 5.9 fb-1 of CDF data collected by a…
In this work we study the CP violation for $\bar{B^0}\to J/\psi K_s$ and $\bar{B^0}\to \phi K_s$ up to leading and next-to-leading order QCD corrections in the standard model, two-Higgs-doublet model and the minimal supersymmetric extension…
Motivated by the recent measurement of the upper limit of ${B}^0 \to J/\psi D$ branching ratio, which is important in accounting for the soft $J/\psi$ production in B decays, we investigate ${B}^0 \to J/\psi D^{(\star)}$ and $\eta_c…
The $J/\psi, \psi(3686) \to \Sigma^0 \bar{\Sigma}^{0}$ processes and subsequent decays are studied using the world's largest $J/\psi$ and $\psi(3686)$ data samples collected with the BESIII detector. The strong-$CP$ symmetry is tested in…
Evidence for the decays $B^{0}\rightarrow\bar{D}^{0}\phi$ and $B^{0} \rightarrow \bar{D}^{*0}\phi$ is reported with a significance of 3.6$\,\sigma$ and 4.3$\,\sigma$, respectively. The analysis employs $pp$ collision data at centre-of-mass…
We study the role of the $f_1(1285)$ resonance in the decays of $J/\psi \to \phi \bar{K} K^*$ and $J/\psi \to \phi f_1(1285)$. The theoretical approach is based on the results of chiral unitary theory where the $f_1(1285)$ resonance is…
