With the potential prospects of the ${\Upsilon}(nS)$ at high-luminosity dedicated heavy-flavor factories, the color-favored ${\Upsilon}(nS)$ ${\to}$ $B_{c}{\pi}$, $B_{c}K$ weak decays are studied with the pQCD approach. It is found that…

Motivated by the recent measurements of non-leptonic $\bar{B}_s^0$ decays by CDF and LHCb collaborations, especially the large ${\cal B}(\bar{B}_s^0\to\pi^+\pi^-)$, we revisit the hard spectator and annihilation corrections in $\bar{B}_s^0$…
In this work, we investigate those $B_{c}\rightarrow D^{(*)}T$ decays in perturbative QCD approach, based on $k_T$ factorization, where T denotes a light tensor meson. For all decays considered in this work, there are no contributions from…
We study the nonleptonic charmless $B_{u,d,s} \to K_0^*(1430)P$ $(P=K\,, \pi)$ and $ K_0^*(1430)V$ $ (V=K^*\,, \rho\,, \omega\,, \phi)$ decays. The amplitudes are calculated within the QCD factorization, and the non-perturbative quantities…
Motivated by the first LHCb searches for the rare $\bar{B}_{s,d}^{0} \to J/\psi\mu^{+}\mu^{-}$ decays, we perform a detailed study of these processes within the QCD factorization formalism. Since the transverse size of the $J/\psi$ meson is…
We discuss the decay of Bc mesons into two light mesons (pi, K^(*), eta', rho, omega, phi). All these decay channels come from a single type of diagram, namely tree annihilation. This allows us to derive extremely simple SU(3) relations…
The nonleptonic two body $B_{u,d,s,c}$ decays involving a light tensor meson in final states are studied in the perturbative QCD approach based on $k_T$ factorization. The decay modes with a tensor meson emitted, are prohibited in naive…
I review the recent progress on the perturbative QCD approach to exclusive $B$ meson decays, discussing the comparison of collinear and $k_T$ factorizations, the CP asymmetry in the $B^0\to\pi^+\pi^-$ decay, penguin enhancement, the…
I present estimates of the branching fractions in the non-leptonic charmonium two-body decay rates for $B^0\rightarrow \psi(2S)\pi^0$ decay and the same decays of $B^+\rightarrow \psi(2S)\pi^+$, $B^0\rightarrow \psi(2S)K^0$ and…
In this paper, we studied systematically the semileptonic decays $\bar{B}_s \to K^{(*)} \ell^+ \ell^-$ with $l^-=(e^-,\mu^-,\tau^-)$ by using the perturbative QCD (PQCD) and the "PQCD+Lattice" factorization approach, respectively. We first…
Nonleptonic $B$ to charmonium decays generally show deviations from the factorization predictions. For example, the mode $B^- \to K^- \chi_{c0}$ has been experimentally observed with sizeable branching fraction while its factorized…
We study $B_{\small (s)}\to \phi\rho$ decays in a perturbative QCD approach based on $k_T$ factorization. In this approach, we calculate factorizable and non-factorizable contributions, there are no annihilation contributions due to quark…
Semi-leptonic $B_s \to K \ell \nu$ and $B_s \to D_s \ell \nu$ decays provide an alternative $b$-decay channel to determine the CKM matrix elements $|V_{ub}|$ and $|V_{cb}|$ or to obtain $R$-ratios to investigate lepton flavor universality…
We analyze the radiative leptonic $B_c$ decay mode: $B_c \to \ell \nu \gamma$ ($\ell=e, \mu$) using a QCD-inspired constituent quark model. The prediction: ${\cal B}(B_c \to \ell \nu \gamma)\simeq 3 \times 10^{-5}$ makes this channel…
