The inclusive light hadronic decays of 1D_2 heavy quarkonia are studied within the framework of NRQCD at the leading order in $v$ and up to the order of $\alpha_s^3$. With one-loop QCD corrections, the infrared divergences and Coulomb…
We perform a lattice QCD calculation of the \pi^0\to\gamma\gamma transition form factor and the associated decay width. We use a Euclidean time integral of the relevant three-point function to compute the decay amplitude for two-photon…
We estimate the decay rates of $\eta_c\rightarrow 2\gamma$, $\eta_c'\rightarrow 2\gamma$, and $J/\psi\rightarrow e^+ e^-$, $\psi^\prime\rightarrow e^+e^-$, by taking into account both relativistic and QCD radiative corrections. The decay…
We derive the imaginary part of the potential NRQCD Hamiltonian up to order 1/m^4, when the typical momentum transfer between the heavy quarks is of the order of Lambda_{QCD} or greater, and the binding energy E much smaller than…
In this paper, the dilepton electromagnetic decays $\chi_{cJ}(1P) \to J/\psi e^+e^-$ and $\chi_{cJ}(1P) \to J\psi \mu^+\mu^-$, where $\chi_{cJ}$ denotes $\chi_{c0}$, $\chi_{c1}$ and $\chi_{c2}$, are calculated systematically in the improved…
We calculate the radiative decay widths of decuplet hyperons in a chiral constituent quark model including electromagnetic exchange currents between quarks. Exchange currents contribute significantly to the E2 transition amplitude, while…
We calculate the decay width for $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda_c e {\bar \nu}$ in the frame work of a nonrelativistic quark (NRQ) model of heavy baryons where the light quarks play the role of spectators. Our calculation does not make an explicit…
We perform non-perturbative calculation of the \pi^0 to {\gamma}{\gamma} transition form factor and the associated decay width using lattice QCD. The amplitude for two-photon final state, which is not an eigenstate of QCD, is extracted…
Within the framework of nonrelativistic QCD (NRQCD) factorization formalism, we compute the helicity amplitude as well as the decay width of $\eta_{Q2}$ ($Q=c,b$) electromagnetic decay into two photons up to next-to-next-to-leading order…
In the traditional non-relativistic bound state calculation, the two-photon decay amplitudes of the $P$-wave $\chi_{c0,2}$ and $\chi_{b0,2}$ states depend on the derivative of the wave function at the origin which can only be obtained from…
We give a more complete calculation of $b \to s e^+e^- $ decay including leading log QCD corrections from $m_{top}$ to $M_W$ in addition to corrections from $M_{W}$ to $m_b$. The differential decay rate is found to be slightly suppressed…
Two-photon decays probe the structure of mesons and represent an important contribution to hadronic light-by-light scattering. For the neutral pion, the decay amplitude tests the effects of the chiral anomaly; for a heavy quarkonium state,…
In this work, we study the $\Xi_c$ baryon electromagnetic decay widths within the constituent quark model formalism through an analysis of the transitions from $P-$wave states to ground states. We use the non-relativistic limit of the…
We present the method of calculation of radiative decays of composite quark-antiquark systems with different J^{PC}: (Q\bar Q)_{in} -> gamma (Q\bar Q)_{out}. The method is relativistic invariant, it is based on the double dispersion…
We study the decay process of $J/\psi\rightarrow e^+e^- \phi$ where the relatively clean electromagnetic (EM) transitions appear at leading order at tree level while the hadronic contributions only emerge via hadronic loop transitions. We…
Over a large fraction of phase space a combination of an operator product and heavy quark expansions effectively turn the decay $\bar B -> D^{(*)0} e+e-$ into a ``short distance'' process, i.e., one in which the weak and electromagnetic…
In this article we consider the three-particle decays $\chi_{b0,2}\to J/\psi c\bar c\to J/\psi D\bar D+X$. We present the analytical formulae for the differential widths of these decays, the numerical values of their integrated widths and…
