The properties of strange ($K$, $\bar K$ and $\bar K^*$) and open-charm ($D$, $\bar D$ and $D^*$) mesons in dense matter are studied using a unitary approach in coupled channels for meson-baryon scattering. In the strangeness sector, the…
The properties of charmed mesons in nuclear matter and nuclei are reviewed. Different frameworks are discussed paying a special attention to unitarized coupled-channel approaches which incorporate heavy-quark spin symmetry. Several charmed…
Non-leptonic charm decays provide insights into both electro-weak and strong dynamics. This includes the study of long-distance hadronic effects, the approximate symmetries of strong interactions, and precision tests of the Standard Model.…
In terms of ${\cal P}_{c1,c2}={\cal P}_c(4380,4450)^+$ as the hidden charm pentaquark states to consist of $c\bar c uud$, we study the semileptonic $\Lambda_b\to ({\cal P}_{c1,c2}\to)J/\psi p \ell^-\bar \nu_\ell$ decays. In our discussion,…
Using e+e- collision data in the sqrt{s} = 4 GeV energy region, CLEO-c has made extensive studies of semileptonic and leptonic decays of the D0, D+, and Ds+ charmed mesons. We report recent measurements of absolute branching fractions, form…
We study $\Lambda$ baryons of spin-parity $\frac{1}{2}^{\pm}$ with either a strange or charm valence quark in full 2+1 flavor lattice QCD. Multiple $SU(3)$ singlet and octet operators are employed to generate the desired single baryon…
We study color allowed bottom baryon to $s$-wave and $p$-wave charmed baryon non-leptonic decays in this work. The charmed baryons include spin-1/2 and spin-3/2 states. Explicitly, we consider $\Lambda_b\to \Lambda^{(*,**)}_c M^-$,…
We improve upon previous explicit estimates of charm rescattering contributions to the decay $B^0\to K^0\bar{\ell}\ell$ by including contributions from dipole interactions with the intermediate charm-meson states, and by further…
$B$-physics data and flavor symmetries suggest that leptoquarks can have masses as low as few ${\cal{O}}(\mbox{TeV})$, predominantly decay to third generation quarks, and highlight $pp \to b \mu \mu$ signatures from single production and…
We first study the charmless two-body $\Lambda_b$ decays with the scalar mesons as the final states and predict that ${\cal B}(\Lambda_b\to \Lambda f_0(980,1500))=(2.9\pm 0.7,12.4\pm 3.8)\times 10^{-6}$ and ${\cal B}(\Lambda_b\to p…
We address the impact of a modified $W \ell \nu$ coupling on a wide range of observables, such as $\tau$ leptonic and mesonic decays, leptonic decays of pseudoscalar mesons, as well as semileptonic meson decays. In particular, we…
Exclusive nonleptonic decays of bottom and charm baryons are studied within a relativistic quark model. We include factorizing as well as nonfactorizing contributions to the decay amplitudes.
In a coalescence plus fragmentation approach we calculate the heavy baryon/meson ratio and the $p_T$ spectra of charmed hadrons $D^{0}$, $D_{s}$ and $\Lambda_{c}^{+}$ in a wide range of transverse momentum from low $p_T$ up to about 10 GeV…
We derive constraints from flavor and LHC searches on charmphilic contributions to the muon anomalous magnetic moment with a single leptoquark. Only the scalar leptoquarks $S_1$ and $R_2$ are relevant for the present analysis. We find that…
The deviations of $B$-meson decays measured in $R_{D^{(*)}}^{\tau\ell}$ and $R_{K^{(*)}}^{\mu e}$ can be explained by the presence of two scalar leptoquarks, a singlet $S_1$ and a triplet $S_3$, mostly coupled to the third generation. We…
In this work, we explore the effect of neutrino nonstandard interactions (NSI) involving the charm quark at SND@LHC. Using an effective description of new physics in terms of four-fermion operators involving a charm quark, we constrain the…
We consider effects of coloured scalar mediators in decays $c\to u \, {\it invisibles}$. In particular, in these processes, as invisibles, we consider massive right-handed fermions. The coloured scalar $\bar S_1\equiv (\bar 3, 1, -2/3)$,…
I would like to discuss $D^0-\bar{D}^0$ the mixing and rare D decays as manifestations of Flavor Changing Neutral Currents (FCNC) in the charm sector. I will first review the expectations in the Standard Model (SM) and then summarize some…
