The decays B^+ --> D^{*+}_s gamma and B^+ --> D^{*+} gamma can be used for an extraction of |V_{ub}|. When the b and c quarks are nearly degenerate the rate for these modes can be determined in terms of other observed rates, namely B\bar{B}…

Considering two molecular state assumptions, i.e. S-wave $\bar{\Lambda}-K^-$ and S-wave $\bar{\Sigma}^0-K^-$ molecular states, we study the possible decays of $\bar N_X(1625)$ that include $\bar N_X(1625)\to K^{-}\bar{\Lambda},…

Using 355 pb^-1 of data collected by the CDF II detector in \ppbar collisions at sqrt{s} = 1.96 TeV at the Fermilab Tevatron, we study the fully reconstructed hadronic decays B -> D pi and B -> D pi pi pi. We present the first measurement…

The abundant $\psi'$ events have been collected at the Beijing Electron Positron Collider-II (BEPCII) that could undoubtedly provide us with a great opportunity to study the more attractive charmonium decays. As has been noticed before, in…

The semileptonic decays $\bar{B}\to D(D^*)\pi\ell\bar{\nu}$ are analyzed by heavy quark and chiral symmetries. The branching ratio is of order of a few percent for $\dpi$, but it is much smaller for $\dstar$, of order $10^{-4}-10^{-5}$. The…

For coupled channels $D^0K^+$, $D^+K^0$, $D_s^+\eta$, and $D_s^+\pi^0$, the $S$-wave scattering amplitudes are constructed taking into account the mixing of the isoscalar resonance $D^*_{s0}(2317)^+$ with nonresonance amplitudes with…

We analyze the mixing between $\Sigma^0$ and $\Lambda^0$ based on the baryon masses. We distinguish the contributions from QCD and QED in the baryon mass splittings. We find that the mixing angle between $\Sigma^0$ and $\Lambda^0$ is…

Hadronic form factors for the rare weak transitions $\Lambda_{b}\rightarrow\Lambda^{(*)}$ are calculated using a nonrelativistic quark model. The form factors are extracted in two ways. An analytic extraction using single component wave…

The interpretation of the recent observation by LHCb of a heavy-flavor-conserving and strangeness-changing decay $\Xi_b^- \to \Lambda_b \pi^-$ in terms of the branching fraction for the decay suffers from the uncertainty in the yield of the…

The Cabibbo-favored decay $\Lambda_c^+ \to n \bar{K}^0\pi^+$ offers a unique window to explore unresolved puzzles in the low-energy baryon spectroscopy and the isospin dynamics of the $\bar{K}N$ system. Recent experimental results present…

In this talk I report on the recent developments in the subject of dynamically generated resonances. In particular I discuss the $\gamma p \to K^0 \Sigma^+$ and $\gamma n \to K^0 \Sigma^0$ reactions, with a peculiar behavior around the…

We study the charmless two-body $\Lambda_b\to \Lambda (\phi,\eta^{(\prime)})$ and three-body $\Lambda_b\to \Lambda K^+K^- $ decays. We obtain ${\cal B}(\Lambda_b\to \Lambda\phi)=(3.53\pm 0.24)\times 10^{-6}$ to agree with the recent LHCb…

In this paper we study the relationship between the $D_{s0}^{*}(2317)^+$ resonance and the decay of the $B_c$ meson into $J/\psi DK$. In this process, the $B_c$ meson decays first into $J/\psi$ and the quark pair $c\bar{s}$, and then the…
