Two-body hadronic weak decays of Bc meson involving tensor meson in the final state are studied by using Isgur- Scora-Grinstein-Wise (ISGW II) model. Decay amplitudes are obtained using the factorization scheme in the Spectator Quark Model.…
The two-body mesonic $B$ decays induced only via a single $W$-exchange or annihilation quark diagram, such as $B^-_u\rightarrow D^{(*)-}_sK^{(*)0}$ and $\bar{B}^0_d\rightarrow D^{(*)+}_sK^{(*)-}$, are analyzed in the factorization…
We study charmless two-body baryonic B decays in a diagramatic approach. Relations on decay amplitudes are obtained. In general there are more than one tree and more than one penguin amplitudes. The number of independent amplitudes can be…
We have fully reconstructed decays of both B0 and B- Mesons into final states containing either D, D*, D**, Psi, Psi', or Chi_{c1} mesons. This allows us to obtain new results on many physics topics including branching ratios, tests of the…
We study the doubly charmful two-body and three-body baryonic B decays $\bar B\to \Lambda_c^+\bar \Lambda_c^-$ and $\bar B\to \Lambda_c^+\bar \Lambda_c^- \bar K$. As pointed out before, a naive estimate of the branching ratio ${\cal…
The unexpectedly large transverse polarization measured in the B-to-phi K* decay poses the question whether it is accounted for as a strong interaction effect or possibly points to a hidden nonstandard weak interaction. We extend here the…

We present preliminary results on hadronic decays of B mesons, based on data recorded at the Upsilon(4S) resonance with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II B-factory at SLAC. We measure branching fractions of many B decay modes, including…
We review recent measurements of heavy B hadron states including masses and lifetimes of the Bc meson as well as excited B states (B**, Bs**). We discuss properties of the Bs meson such as lifetime, lifetime difference delta_Gamma/Gamma and…
The study of b-hadrons made possible a great number of benchmark results in flavour physics. In recent years a lot of effort in understanding their dynamics has been done. These studies can represent a possible avenue for the discovery of…
We present a search for decays of $B$ mesons to final states with a $b\_1$ meson and a $\rho$ or $K^*(892)$ meson. The search is based on a data sample consisting of 465 million $B\kern 0.18em{\kern -0.18em B}{}$ pairs collected by the…
We interest to investigate of the three-body decays of $B^{0}$ meson to $ \phi\pi^+\pi^- $ and $B_s^{0}$ meson to $ \phi \pi^{+}\pi^{-}$. Hadronic three-body decays include both nonresonant and resonant contributions, on the basis of the…
The baryonic decays of $J/ \psi$ provide a new way to study the internal structure of baryons. A simple diquark model applied to the calculation of the $\bar{B}B$ decay cross-sections is compared with the ordinary constituent quark model.…
We systematically revisit the baryonic four-body semileptonic decays of $B^- \to {\bf B}\bar{\bf B}'\ell^- \bar{\nu}_{\ell}$ by the perturbative QCD counting rules with ${\bf B}$ representing octet baryons and $\ell=e,\mu$. We study the…
Motivated by recent data on B-> p pbar K decay, we study various charmless three-body baryonic B decay modes, including Lambda pbar pi, Sigma0 pbar pi, p pbar pi, p pbar Kbar0, in a factorization approach. These modes have rates of order…
We review recent experimental results on B meson decays. These include measurements of the inclusive production of charmed and non-charmed mesons and baryons, the reconstruction of a large number of exclusive hadronic final states with…
