We have studied two-body charmless hadronic decays of B mesons into the final states $\pi\pi$, $K \pi$, and $KK$. Using 3.3 million $B\bar{B}$ pairs collected with the CLEO-II detector, we have made the first observation of the decays…
We study the weak decay of the $\Lambda_b$ into $ J/\psi ~ K ~ \Xi$ and $J/\psi ~ \eta ~ \Lambda$ states, and relate these processes to the $\Lambda_b \to J/\psi ~ \bar K ~N$ decay mode. The elementary weak transition at the quark level…
Evidence is presented for the baryonic $B$ meson decay $\bar{B}\rightarrow D^0 \Lambda \bar{\Lambda}$ based on a data sample of $471 \times 10^6$ $B\bar{B}$ pairs collected with the {\it BABAR} detector at the PEP2 asymmetric $e^+e^-$…

We have searched for two-body charmless hadronic decays of $B$ mesons. Final states include $\pi\pi$, $K \pi$, and $KK$ with both charged and neutral kaons and pions; $\pi\rho$, $K \rho$, and $K^*\pi$; and $K\phi$, $ K^*\phi$, and…
There are two apparent puzzles connected with the two-body and three-body doubly charmed baryonic B decays. First, earlier calculations based on QCD sum rules or the diquark model predict $Br(\bar B^0\to\Xi_c^+\bar\Lambda_c^-)\approx…
We present an analysis of two isovector scalar resonant contributions to the $B$ decays into charmonia plus $K\bar K$ or $\pi\eta$ pair in the perturbative QCD approach. The Flatt\'{e} model for the $a_0(980)$ resonance and the Breit Wigner…
We study the radiative $\phi\to K^0\bar{K}^0\gamma$ decay within a phenomenological framework by considering the contributions of the $f_{0}(980)$ and $a_{0}(980)$ scalar resonances. We calculate the branching ratio $B(\phi\to…
We examine the three-body baryonic $\bar B\to {\bf B\bar B'}V$ decays with $V$ vector mesons in the standard model. We can simultaneously explain the recent experimental data on the decays of $B^-\to \Lambda\bar p \,\rho^0$ and $\bar B\to…
