We review the theoretical status of the lifetime ratios $\tau_{B^+} / \tau_{B_d}$ and $\tau_{B_s} / \tau_{B_d}$ and of the mixing quantities $\Delta M_s$, $\Delta \Gamma_s$ and $\phi_s$. We show that the ratio $\Delta \Gamma_s / \Delta M_s$…
Nuclear radial distance is a prerequisite for generating any alpha-decay half-life formula by taking a suitable effective potential. We study the emission process of alpha particles from an isolated quasi-bound state generated by an…
