We explore the breaking effects of the $SU(3)$ flavor symmetry in the singly Cabibbo-suppressed anti-triplet charmed baryon decays of ${\bf B}_c\to {\bf B}_n M$, with ${\bf B}_c=(\Xi_c^0,\Xi_c^+,\Lambda_c^+)$ and ${\bf B}_n(M)$ the baryon…

We propose a new model for describing baryon semi-leptonic decays for estimating $F$ and $D$ values with explicit breaking effects of both SU(3) and SU(2) flavor symmetry, where all possible SU(3) and SU(2) breaking effects are induced from…

Based upon flavor SU(3) symmetry, we perform global fits to charmless B decays into one pseudoscalar meson and one vector meson in the final states. We consider different symmetry breaking schemes and find that the one implied by na{\"i}ve…

In the SU(3) symmetry limit, semileptonic $D^+\to Sl^+\nu$ and $B^-\to Sl^-\bar\nu$ decays, with $S=a_0(980)$, $f_0(980)$ and $f_0(600)$, are found to obey different sum rules in the $\bar qq$ and the tetra-quark descriptions for scalar…

We consider three body $\Delta s = 1$ $B \to f$ decays with $f=KKK$. The deviations of $-\eta_f S_f$ from $S_{\psi K_S}$ and of $C_f$ from zero can be bounded using the approximate SU(3) flavor symmetry of the strong interactions and…

It is generally assumed that deviations from flavor SU(3) symmetry arise entirely from quark mass-differences, reflected in the mass splittings between strange and nonstrange members of the same SU(3) multiplet. Under this assumption, a…

Decays $B\to DP\ell^+\nu_\ell~(\ell=e,\mu,\tau)$ with the non-resonance, the charmed vector resonances, the charmed scalar resonances and the charmed tensor resonances are calculated by using the SU(3) flavor symmetry. Firstly, the decay…

We show that the factorization assumption in color-suppressed $B$ meson decays is not ruled out by experimental data on $B \ra K(K^*) + J/\Psi(\Psi^{'})$. The problem previously pointed out might be due to an inadequate choice of hadronic…

We study T-violating triple-product asymmetries in the quark-level decay b -> s u u(bar) within the standard model (SM). We find that only two types of triple products are non-negligible. The asymmetry in p_u . [s_u x s_u(bar)] or p_u(bar)…

We perform a combined analysis of $B \to \pi \pi$ and $B \to \pi K$ decays with the current experimental data. Assuming SU(3) flavor symmetry and no new physics contributions to the topological amplitudes, we demonstrate that the…

Anomalies in the non-leptonic $\bar{B}^0\rightarrow D^{(*)+}K^{(*)-}$ and $\bar{B}^0_s\rightarrow D^{(*)+}_s\pi^-$ decays may be an indication of physics beyond the Standard Model, but the large deviations require strongly coupled new…

We investigate flavor physics at present and future B factories in order to distinguish supersymmetric models. We evaluate CP asymmetries in various B decay modes, Delta M(Bd), Delta M(Bs), and epsilon_K in three supersymmetric models, i.e.…

Motivated by the recent hints of lepton flavor universality violation observed in semileptonic $B$ decays, we analyze how to test flavor and helicity structures of the corresponding amplitudes in view of future data. We show that the…

Using improved theoretical calculations of the decay form factors in the Light Cone-QCD sum rule approach, we investigate the decay rates, dilepton invariant mass spectra and the forward-backward (FB) asymmetry in the decays $B \to (K,K^*)…

We employ the flavor SU(3) symmetry to analyze semileptonic decays of anti-triplet charmed baryons ($\Lambda^{+}_{c},\Xi_{c}^{+,0}$) and find that the experimental data on ${\cal B}(\Lambda_c\to\Lambda \ell^+\nu_{\ell})$ implies…

We study the various existing implementations of SU(3) breaking in the Hidden Local Symmetry model for the low energy hadronic sector following a mechanism originally proposed by Bando, Kugo and Yamawaki (BKY). We pay particular attention…

I propose an alternative method for measuring the $CP$ violating phase $\phi_2$ ($\alpha$) without ambiguity in an extended SU(3) flavour symmetry analysis, which can ultimately be achieved by exploiting interference effects between $B \to…

We study the three-body anti-triplet ${\bf B_c}\to {\bf B_n}MM'$ decays with the $SU(3)$ flavor ($SU(3)_f$) symmetry, where ${\bf B_c}$ denotes the charmed baryon anti-triplet of $(\Xi_c^0,-\Xi_c^+,\Lambda_c^+)$, and ${\bf B_n}$ and $M(M')$…

In the framework of QCD factorization, we study $B^{+(0)} \to \eta' K^{+(0)}$ decays. In order to more reliably determine the phenomenological parameters $X_H$ and $X_A$ arising from end-point divergences in the hard spectator scattering…

We study the hadronic D meson decays into a pseudoscalar meson $P$ and an even-parity meson $M$, where $M$ represents a scalar meson $S$, an axial-vector meson $A$, or a tensor meson $T$. These decays are first analyzed in the…
