We study the non-leptonic two-body weak decays of $\Lambda_c^+(2286)\to {\bf B}_n M$ with ${\bf B}_n$ ($M$) representing as the baryon (meson) states. Based on the $SU(3)$ flavor symmetry, we can describe most of the data reexamined by the…

In this work, the strong decay behaviors of the $\lambda-$mode low-lying $\Xi_{b}$ and $\Xi_{b}^\prime$ baryons are investigated within the $^3P_0$ model. Our results suggest that all of the low-lying $\bar 3_F$ states $\Xi_b(2S)$,…

A large number of $B_c$ meson events have been recorded at the LHCb detector, especially some two-body hadronic decay modes. We analyzed the weak decays of the $B_c$ meson into two hadron states under the flavor SU(3) symmetry. The…

We evaluate the complete spectrum of the Bc mesons, below the open flavor BD threshold, in a Bethe-Salpeter model. We make predictions for the radiative decay widths of the Bc excited states. We compare our results with those of other…

We have systematically calculated the strong decays of the low-lying $\rho$-mode $1P$-wave $\Lambda_{c(b)}$, $\Sigma_{c(b)}$, $\Xi_{c(b)}$, $\Xi^{'}_{c(b)}$, $\Omega_{c(b)}$ baryons using the chiral quark model within the $j$-$j$ coupling…

We investigate the mass spectrum and the decay properties of the $B_s$ mesons within the screened nonrelativistic quark model and the $^3P_0$ model. Our results suggest that the $B_{sJ}(6064)$ and $B_{sJ}(6114)$ states, as the first…

In the wake of measurements on $B_c^+ \to J/\psi K^+$, $B_c^+ \to J/\psi \pi^+\pi^-\pi^+$, and $B_c^+ \to J/\psi K^+ K^-\pi^+$ at Large Hadron Collider experiments, we propose to study the decays $B_c^+ \to J/\psi M^+$ comprehensively, with…

More and more excited baryons have been reported experimentally, but many properties are still unclear. This work attempts to simultaneously study the masses and strong decay widths of some singly heavy baryons, in order to provide possible…

In this work, we study the masses of the $1S$-, $1P$-, $1D$-, $2S$-, and $2P$-wave $\Omega_c$ baryon states within a semi-relativistic constituent quark potential model. Furthermore, the strong decay properties for the excited $\Omega_c$…

We study the exclusive two-body nonleptonic $B_c\to X_{c\bar{c}}M$ decays, where $X_{c\bar{c}}$ is either a ground(1S) or a radially excited (2S or 3S) charmonium and $M$ is a pseudoscalar $(P)$ or a vector $(V)$ meson. We consider here…

We calculate the masses and the strong decays of orbitally excited states $B_{s0}$, $B'_{s1}$, $B_{s1}$ and $B_{s2}$ by the improved Bethe-Salpeter method. The predicted masses of $B_{s0}$ and $B'_{s1}$ are $M_{B_{s0}}=5.723\pm0.280 {\rm…

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.…
