We provide updated predictions for the hadronic decays $\bar{B}_s^0\to D_s^{(*)+} \pi^-$ and $\bar{B}^0\to D^{(*)+} K^-$. They are based on $\mathcal{O}(\alpha_s^2)$ results for the QCD factorization amplitudes at leading power and on…

In this work we calculate the ratios of rates of the $\Xi_b$ nonleptonic and semileptonic decays into the $\Xi_c$(2790) and $\Xi_c$(2815) ($\Xi_c^*$) resonances. These resonances are dynamically generated from the pseudoscalar-baryon and…

Recently the LHCb collaboration put the upper limit on the $\Xi^{-}_{b} \rightarrow \Xi^{-}\gamma$ decay branching ratio $Br(\Xi^{-}_{b} \rightarrow \Xi^{-}\gamma)< 1.3\times 10^{-4}$. The measured value is below the light-cone sum rule…

We study the two-body and three-body charmful baryonic B decays: $\bar B^0\to \Lambda_c\bar p$ and $\bar B\to \Lambda_c \bar p\pi(\rho)$. The factorizable W-exchange contribution to $\bar B^0\to\Lambda_c\bar p$ is negligible. Applying the…
