Based on the assumption of two-quark structure of the scalar meson $K_0^*(1430)$, we calculate the CP-averaged branching ratios for $B \to K_0^*(1430) \etap$ decays in the framework of the perturbative QCD (pQCD) approach here. We perform…
Radial mixing in the pseudoscalar $\eta-\eta^{\prime}$ systems can be generated from hyperfine interactions and annihilation terms. For the $\eta-\eta^{\prime}$ system we find the effects of radial mixing are appreciable and seriously…
Instead of the glueball-$\eta'$ mixing ansatz, the latest measured ratios of the branching fractions of $B_{(s)}^0\to J/\psi \eta^{(\prime)}$ decays by LHCb can be understood by including the contribution from the light quark annihilation…
We perform a thorough analysis of the VP\gamma(\gamma*) and P\gamma\gamma(\gamma*) decays in the resonance chiral theory, where V stand for the vector resonances \rho, K*, \omega, \phi, P stand for \pi, K, \eta, \eta' and \gamma*…
Although eta-eta' mixing is qualitatively well understood as a consequence of the U(1)_A anomaly in QCD together with a broken SU(3) flavor symmetry, until recently the values of decay and mixing parameters of the eta and eta' were only…
We study the radiative decays $h_{c}\rightarrow\gamma\eta^{(\prime)}$ in the framework of perturbative QCD and evaluate analytically the one-loop integrals with the light quark masses kept. Interestingly, the branching ratios…

We reanalyze the eta-gamma and eta'-gamma transition form factors within the modified hard scattering approach on the basis of new experimental data from CLEO and L3. Our approach perfectly describes the experimental data over a wide range…
By employing the perturbative QCD (PQCD) factorization approach, we studied the sixteen $B/B_s \to \eta_c (\pi, K, \eta^{(\prime)},\rho,K^*,\omega,\phi)$ decays with the inclusion of the currently known next-to-leading order (NLO)…
We calculate the branching ratios of the yet unmeasured eta' decays into four pions, based on a combination of chiral perturbation theory and vector-meson dominance. The decays eta' --> 2(pi+ pi-) and eta' --> pi+ pi- 2pi0 are P-wave…
We study the three-body baryonic $B\to {\bf B\bar B'}M$ decays with $M$ representing the $\eta$ or $\eta'$ meson. Particularly, we predict that ${\cal B}(B^-\to\Lambda\bar p\eta,\Lambda\bar p\eta')=(5.3\pm 1.4,3.3\pm 0.7)\times 10^{-6}$ or…
The inclusive and exclusive B decays into the eta' meson plus others are investigated in a model based on the QCD anomaly. The invariant mass distribution is discussed. The constraint of the effective coupling is obtained from the data of…
Motivated by the large branching ratios observed for the process $B\to\eta^{\prime}K$, we examine critically all the ingredients that go into estimates of B decays into two light pseudoscalars. Within factorization approximation, we examine…
The LHCb collaboration has recently reported a measurement of the difference in direct CP asymmetries for the decays $\Lambda_b^0 \to J/\psi \, p \, h^-$ (with $h = K, \pi$), offering new experimental constraints on the decay dynamics of…
In this paper, we take into account the intrinsic charm and gluonic contents into the $\eta-\eta^\prime$ mixing scheme and formulate the tetramixing $\eta-\eta^\prime-G-\eta_c$ to study the mixing properties of $\eta^{(\prime)}$ mesons.…
We study direct CP violating asymmetries (CPAs) in the two-body $\Lambda_b$ decays of $\Lambda_b\to pM(V)$ with $M(V)=K^-(K^{*-})$ and $\pi^-(\rho^-)$ based on the generalized factorization method. After simultaneously explaining the…
I present a consistent way to include $\eta$-$\eta^\prime$ mixing in global analyses of two-body decays of heavy hadrons employing the approximate flavour-SU(3) symmetry of QCD. The framework is applied to $D\to P \eta^\prime$ decays, where…
The likelihood of a sizable, direct CP-violating asymmetry in the decays $B^\mp\to K^\mp\eta$, is calculated within the framework of the model which originally predicted a sizeable asymmetry in $\pi^\mp\eta(\eta')$. It is shown in a…
QCD sum-rules are used to calculate the $\hat\rho(1^{-+})\to\pi\eta, \pi\eta'$ decay widths of the exotic hybrid in two different $\eta-\eta'$ mixing schemes. In the conventional flavour octet-singlet mixing scheme, the decay widths are…
We present a calculation of the $\eta$-$\eta'$ mixing in the framework of large-$N_c$ chiral perturbation theory. A general expression for the $\eta$-$\eta'$ mixing at next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) is derived, including…
