We report the first observation of the decays $B^0 \rightarrow p\bar{\Lambda} D^{(*)-}$. The data sample of $711$ fb$^{-1}$ used in this analysis corresponds to $772$ million $B\bar{B}$ pairs, collected at the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance by…

We report results from an updated study of the suppressed decays B- to D K- and B- to D* K- followed by D to K+pi-, where D(*) indicates a D(*)0 or an anti-D(*)0 meson, and D* decays to D pi0 or D gamma. These decays are sensitive to the…

We calculated the branch ratios of $\Lambda_C\to \Lambda K$ and $\Lambda_C\to \Lambda \pi$ within factorization approximation. It is found that the results suffers from the uncertainties of form factors. To reduce such uncertainties, we…

We make predictions for ratios of branching fractions of $\bar B^0$ decays into $D^0$ and the scalar mesons $f_0(500)$, $f_0(980)$, $a_0(980)$, plus $\bar B^0_s$ decay into $D^0$ and $\kappa(800)$. We also compare the $\pi^+ \pi^-$…

The current knowledge on the $D_{s}^{\ast}$ meson are very limited. Besides the dominant electromagnetic decays, the $D_{s}^{\ast}$ weak decays are legal and offer the valuable opportunities to explore the wanted $D_{s}^{\ast}$ meson. In…

Using proton-proton collision data, collected with the LHCb detector and corresponding to 1.0, 2.0 and 1.9fb$^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity at the centre-of-mass energies of 7, 8, and 13 TeV, respectively, the decay $\Lambda_b^0\to…

We have conducted a study of the $B^{+(0)} \to \bar D^{0(-)} D^{*}_{s0}(2317)^+$ reactions from the perspective that the $D^*_{s0}(2317)$ resonance is a molecular state of the $KD$ and $D_s \eta$ components. We have followed a method to…

We review the physics of purely leptonic decays of $\pi^\pm$, $K^\pm$, $D^{\pm}$, $D_s^\pm$, and $B^\pm$ pseudoscalar mesons. The measured decay rates are related to the product of the relevant weak-interaction-based CKM matrix element of…

We study the Belle reaction $\Xi_c^+ \to \Xi^- \pi^+ \pi^+$ looking at the mass distribution of $\pi^+ \Xi$, where clear signals for the $\Xi(1620)$ and $\Xi(1690)$ resonances are seen. These two resonances are generated dynamically from…

We study the semileptonic decays of $\Lambda_c^+ \to \Lambda(n)\ell^+ \nu_{\ell}$ in two relativistic dynamical approaches of the light-front constituent quark model (LFCQM) and MIT bag model (MBM). By considering the Fermi statistic…

We present a study of the decays B0 -> D0 K*0 and B0 -> barD0 K*0 with K*0 -> K+pi-. The D0 and the barD0 mesons are reconstructed in the final states f=K+pi-, K+pi-pi0, K+pi-pi+pi- and their charge conjugates. Using a sample of 465 million…
