In this paper, we studied the semileptonic $B/B_s \to (D^{(*)},D_s^{(*)}) l\nu_l$ decays in the framework of the standard model (SM) , by employing the perturbative QCD (PQCD) factorization formalism combining with the lattice QCD inputs of…
We discuss the possibilities of testing the recent claims of a relatively large value of the B --> D' transition form factor through B0--> D' pi+ and B- --> D' pi- decay modes. To estimate the width of the latter we need the decay constant…
It has been recently argued that some longstanding problems in semileptonic B decays can be solved provided the branching ratio for the $B\to D^{\prime(\ast)}$ semileptonic decays are large enough. We have studied these decays in a…

The semileptonic $B\to \pi l^+ \nu_l$ decay is studied starting from a simple quark model which includes the influence of the $B^*$ pole. To extend the predictions of a nonrelativistic constituent quark model from its region of…
In this paper, we study the $B \to D^{(*)} l^- \bar{\nu}_{\rm l}$ semileptonic decays and calculate the branching ratios ${\cal B}(B \to D^{(*)} l^- \bar{\nu}_{\rm l})$ and the ratios $R(D^{(*)})$ and $R_{\rm D}^{\rm l,\tau}$ by employing…
The decay chain b -> Bbar -> D^{**0} l nu X, D^{**0} -> D^{*+} pi^-, D^{*+} -> D^0 pi^+, D^0 ->(Kpi or K3pi) is identified in a sample of 3.9 million hadronic Z decays collected with the OPAL detector at LEP. The branching ratio BR (b ->…
Semileptonic B meson decays induced by $b \to s(d) l^+ l^-$ flavour changing neutral current (FCNC) transitions are very important to probe the quark-flavour sector of the standard model (SM) and also offer a probe to test new physics (NP).…
We present a study of B decays into semileptonic final states containing charged and neutral $D_1(2420)$ and $D_2^*(2460)$. The analysis is based on a data sample of $208 fb^{-1}$ collected at the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance with the BaBar…
We report recent measurements from LHCb on $B_{(s)}\to D_{(s)}h(h)(h)$ decays using $\sim$35 pb$^{-1}$ of data collected in 2010. In brief, we measure the following ratios of branching fractions: B(B^0-bar --> D^+K^-) / B(B0-bar --> D^+…
To the leading order, the radiative leptonic decays $B_c \to \gamma \ell \bar \nu$ ($ \ell=e, \mu$) are studied carefully. In the study, a non-relativistic constituent quark model and the effective Lagrangian for the heavy flavour decays…
We have studied the leptonic decay D^+_s to tau^+ nu_tau, via the decay channel tau^+ to e^+ nu_e anti-nu_tau, using a sample of tagged D_s^+ decays collected near the D^*_s D_s peak production energy in e^+ e^- collisions with the CLEO-c…
In this paper, we studied the semileptonic decays $B \to D^{(*)} l^- \bar{\nu}_l$ by using the "pQCD+Lattice QCD" method. We made the extrapolation for the six relevant form factors by using the input values obtained from the pQCD…
We present a unified analysis of $\overline{B}^0 \to D^{(*)+}\ell^-\bar{\nu}_\ell$ and $\overline{B}^0 \to D^{(*)+}\pi^-$ decays using the perturbative QCD (PQCD) approach. The $B \to D^{(*)}$ transition form factors are calculated at low…
The rare decay $B\to\pi\ell^+\ell^-$ arises from $b\to d$ flavor-changing neutral currents and could be sensitive to physics beyond the Standard Model. Here, we present the first $ab$-$initio$ QCD calculation of the $B\to\pi$ tensor form…
We compute various form factors involved in $B\to D^{(*)}$ transitions based on the perturbative QCD formalism, which includes Sudakov effects from the resummation of large radiative corrections in a heavy-light system. A two-parameter…
We evaluate the non leptonic decays $B \to D^* \pi \pi$ and $B \to D^* \rho \pi$ in the limit of infinitely heavy quarks, assuming the dominance of intermediate positive parity charmed resonances. We find that the branching ratios are of…
Inspired by the recent measurement of the ratio of $B_c$ branching fractions to $J/\psi \pi^+$ and $J/\psi \mu^+\nu_{\mu}$ final states at the LHCb detector, we study the semileptonic decays of $B_c$ meson to the S-wave ground and radially…
