Two recently discovered excited charm baryons are studied within the framework of Heavy Hadron Chiral Perturbation Theory. We interpret these new baryons which lie $308 \MeV$ and $340 \MeV$ above the $\Lambda_c$ as $I=0$ members of a P-wave…
A search for a dark baryon is performed for the first time in the two-body decay $\Xi^-\rightarrow\pi^-+{\rm invisible}$ using $(10.087\pm0.044)\times10^{9}$ $J/\psi$ events collected at a center-of-mass energy of…
The LHCb collaboration newly measured the decay rate of doubly charmed baryon $\Xi^{++}_{cc}\to\Xi^{'+}\pi^+$ and a ratio of its branching fraction with respect to that of the decay $\Xi^{++}_{cc}\to\Xi^{+}\pi^+$ is reported as $1.41\pm…
We calculate the semi-leptonic decays of $\Lambda_c$ and $\Lambda_b$ baryons which involve transitions of a heavy quark to a light quark. In a previous work we used data on the Cabibbo favoured non-leptonic decays of charmed baryons…
The charmless $B_{c}$ $\to$ $PP$, $PV$~(where $P$ and $V$ denote the light pseudoscalar and vector mesons, respectively) decays can occur only via the weak annihilation diagrams within the Standard Model and provide, therefore, an ideal…
We have systematically studied the strong and radiative decays of the low-lying $1P$-wave doubly charmed baryons. Some interesting observations are: (i) The states $\Xi_{cc}^*$ and $\Omega_{cc}^*$ with $J^P=3/2^+$ have a fairly large decay…
We provide a systematic study of charmless $B_s \to PP, PV, VV$ decays ($P$ and $V$ denote pseudoscalar and vector mesons, respectively) based on an approximate six-quark operator effective Hamiltonian from QCD. The calculation of the…
In this work, we carry out a global fitting for the two-body weak decays of antitriplet charmed baryons in both SU(3) respected and broken scenarios incorporating all the available data up to date. In the SU(3) irreducible representation…
We study the doubly charmed baryonic B decays $B\to \Xi_{c} \Lambda_{c}$ and $B\to \Lambda^{+}_{c} \Lambda^{-}_{c} K$, recently observed by BELLE. We find that the unexpected large branching ratios (BRs) could be ascribed to the final state…
Belle and Belle II experiments have collected $e^+e^-$ collision data with center-of-mass energies at or near the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance. Using total $1.4\,\mathrm{ab}^{-1}$ combined dataset, we present new measurements of branching…
We investigate the nonleptonic two-body weak decays of the single bottom baryon $\Omega_{b}^{*}$ into $\Omega_{c}^{*}P(V)$ final states within the factorization framework. Employing this framework and incorporating the contributions from…
The semileptonic decays of the lowest-lying double-heavy baryons is treated in a quark model. For the $\Xi_{bb}$, hyperfine mixing in the spin wave function leaves the total rate for decay into the lowest lying daughter baryons essentially…
In recent studies of inclusive $B$ decays, it has been suggested that either $B$ mesons decay much more copiously to final states with no open charm than currently assumed, or $B(D^0 \to K^-\pi^+)$ has to be reduced significantly. This note…
Exclusive semileptonic decays of bottom and charm baryons are considered within a relativistic three-quark model with a Gaussian shape for the baryon-three-quark vertex and standard quark propagators. We calculate the baryonic Isgur-Wise…
Semileptonic and nonleptonic decays of the B_c meson are studied in the framework of the relativistic quark model. The heavy quark expansion in inverse powers of the heavy (b,c) quark mass is used to simplify calculations while the light…
The recent discovery of double charm baryon states by the LHCb Collaborarion and their high precision mass determination calls for a comprehensive analysis of the nonleptonic decays of double and single heavy baryons. Nonleptonic baryon…
Exclusive nonleptonic decays of bottom baryons to charm baryons and pseudoscalar light mesons are analyzed within a relativistic three-quark model. We include factorizing as well as nonfactorizing contributions to the decay amplitudes. The…
The ground vector $B_{c}^{\ast}$ meson has not yet been experimentally discovered until now. Besides the dominant electromagnetic decays, nonleptonic weak decays provide another choice to search for the mysterious $B_{c}^{\ast}$ mesons.…
In this work, based on the assumption of two-quark structure of the scalars, the charmless hadronic $B_c \to SP, SV$ decays(here, $S$, $P$, and $V$ denote the light scalar, pseudoscalar, and vector mesons, respectively) are investigated by…
We systematically study the semileptonic decays of ${\bf B_c} \to {\bf B_n}\ell^+ \nu_{\ell}$ in the light-front constituent quark model, where ${\bf B_c}$ represent the anti-triplet charmed baryons of $(\Xi_c^0,\Xi_c^+,\Lambda_c^+)$ and…
