The decays Upsilon(4S) -> BB, followed by B -> D* pi and D* -> D pi, permit reconstruction of all kinematic quantities that describe the sequence without reconstruction of the D, with reasonably low backgrounds. Using an integrated e+e-…

The large data sample recorded with the Belle detector at the {\Upsilon}(5S) energy provides a unique opportunity to study the poorly-known Bs meson. Several analyses, made with a data sample representing an integrated luminosity of 23.6…

We report the first observation of $B^{\pm}\to\psi(2S)\pi^{\pm}$, a Cabibbo- and color-suppressed decay. This analysis is based on $657\times10^{6}$ $B\overline B$ events collected at the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance with the Belle detector at…

Motivated by the very recent measurement of the branching ratio of ${B_d^0} \to J/\psi \eta$ decay, we calculate the branching ratios of ${B_d}^0 \to J/\psi \eta$ and ${B_d}^0 \to J/\Psi \eta'$ decays in the perturbative QCD (pQCD)…

We report first observations of the decays B- to Ds(*)+ K- pi-, using 292 fb^-1 of data collected at Upsilon(4S) resonance energy by the BaBar detector at the PEP II e+ e- collider. The branching fractions are measured to be B(B- to Ds+ K-…

We study the exclusive semileptonic decays $\Upsilon(1S)\to B_{(c)}\ell\bar{\nu}_\ell$, where $\ell = e,\mu,\tau$. The relevant hadronic form factors are calculated using the Covariant Confined Quark Model developed previously by our group.…

Using data taken with the CLEO II detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring, we have determined the ratio of branching fractions: $R_{\gamma} \equiv \Gamma(\Upsilon(1S) \rightarrow \gamma gg)/\Gamma(\Upsilon(1S) \rightarrow ggg) = (2.75…

In the framework of the nonrelativistic quantum chromodynamics factorization formalism, we study the processes of $\psi(nS)$ and $\Upsilon(nS)$ decay into a lepton pair or a charm pair associated with two jets up to the next-to-leading…

Using data samples of $102\times10^6$ $\Upsilon(1S)$ and $158\times10^6$ $\Upsilon(2S)$ events collected with the Belle detector, a first experimental search has been made for double-charmonium production in the exclusive decays…

Bound upsilon states and their decays provide a unique laboratory for testing QCD, LQCD, and quarkonium potential models. I review recent results, some of which are significant improvements in precision over previous measurements and others…

We study the $\Upsilon(1S)$ radiative decays to $\gamma \pi^+ \pi^-$ and $\gamma K^+ K^-$ using data recorded with the BaBar detector operating at the SLAC PEP-II asymmetric-energy $e^+ e^-$ collider at center-of-mass energies at the…

In this paper we perform a systematic study for the three $B \to (\pi^+\pi^-,\pi^+\pi^0,\pi^0\pi^0)$ decays in the perturbative QCD (pQCD) factorization approach with the inclusion of all currently known next-to-leading order (NLO)…

In decay modes $B^0 \to D_s^{(*)+} D_s^{(*)-}$ and $B_s^0 \to D^{(*)+} D^{(*)-}$, none of quarks in final states is the same as one of $B$ meson. They can occur only via annihilation diagrams in the Standard Model. In the heavy quark limit,…

Motivated by the deviations observed between the data and the SM predictions of $\mathcal{B}(\bar{B}_s^0\to D_s^+ \pi^-)$ and $\mathcal{B}(\bar{B}_d^0\to D^+ K^-)$, we revisit the $B_{c}^{-}\to J/\psi(\eta_{c}) L^{-}$ decays, with $L=\pi,…

Based on a data sample of 81.7 fb^-1 collected at the Upsilon(4S) resonance with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy B Factory at SLAC, we present the current status of the measurement of the branching fraction of Upsilon(4S)…

In this work, we use pQCD approach to calculate 20 $B_{(s)}\to D^*_{s0}(2317)P(V)$ two body decays by assuming $D^*_{s0}(2317)$ as a $\bar cs$ scalar meson, where $P(V)$ denotes a pseudoscalar (vector) meson. These $B_{(s)}$ decays can…

The decays of $B_{d,s}^0 \to \sigma\sigma, \sigma f_0, f_0 f_0$, with $\sigma$ and $f_0$ denoting the light scalar mesons $f_0(500)$ and $f_0(980)$ in the two-quark picture, are studied in the perturbative QCD approach based on $k_T$…
