In this talk, we present the predictions for a number of radiative decays $B_{(s)}\to V\gamma$, with the vector meson in the final state, which proceed through the weak-annihilation mechanism. Within the factorization approximation, we take…
Using $(448.1 \pm 2.9) \times 10^{6}$ $\psi(3686)$ events collected with the BESIII detector, we perform the first search for the weak baryonic decay $\psi(3686) \to \Lambda_c^{+} \bar{\Sigma}^- +c.c.$. The analysis procedure is optimized…
Using the light cone QCD Sum Rules Method, we study the rare B -> nu barnu gamma decay and and find that the branching ratios are, B(B_s -> nu barnu gamma) = 7.5 10^{-8}, B(B_d -> nu -> nu gamma) = 4.2 10^{-9}. A comparision of our results,…

We compute CP asymmetries of one-particle inclusive B(s) --> D(s) X decay rates. We find that the weak angle gamma could in principle be extracted from these asymmetries although they are very small. Taking the decay width difference into…

The measured branching ratio of the $D$ meson semileptonic decay $D \to \rho e^+ \nu_e$, which is based on the $0.82~{\rm fb^{-1}}$ CLEO data taken at the peak of $\psi(3770)$ resonance, disagrees with the traditional SVZ sum rules analysis…

The matrix element of the weak transition {\Lambda}_b\rightarrow{\Lambda}_c can be expressed in terms of six form factors. {\Lambda}_Q(Q = b;c) can be regarded as composed of a heavy quark Q(Q = b;c) and a diquark which is made up of the…
We revisit QCD sum rules for the decay constants of heavy-light mesons. In the sum rules for the vector mesons B^*_(s) and D^*_(s) we improve the accuracy of OPE, taking into account the O(alpha_s^2) terms in the perturbative part and…
