A study of hadron pair production mechanism is motivated by the recent observed decays $\bar B^0\to D^{(*)+}K^-K^0$. One novel phenomenon is threshold enhancement of the kaon pair production. We show that these decays in the heavy quark…

We report on the study of the decay $B^+ \to D^0(\bar{D0}) K^+$ where $D^0$ and $\bar{D0}$ decaying to $K \pi \pi^0$, with the Atwood Dunietz and Soni (ADS) method. We measure the ratios Rads, $R^+$, $R^-$ since the processes $B^+ \to D^0…

We present a new analysis of B_{d,s}->KK modes within the SM, relating them in a controlled way through SU(3)-flavour symmetry and QCD-improved factorisation. We propose a set of sum rules for B_{d,s}-> K^0{\bar K}^0 observables. We…

We report a measurement of $CP$ violating asymmetries in $B^0(\overline{B}^0) \to K^+ K^- K^0_S$ decays with a time-dependent Dalitz approach. This analysis is based on a data sample of $657\times 10^6$ $B\overline{B}$ pairs accumulated at…

We present a study of the decays B- --> D*0 pi- and B- --> D*0 K-, where the D*0 decays into D0 pi0, with the D0 reconstructed in the CP eigenstates K- K+ and pi- pi+ and in the (non-CP) channels K- pi+, K- pi+ pi+ pi-, and K- pi+ pi0. We…

A formalism for measuring time-dependent CP violation in B_q -> J/\psi h+ h- decays with J/\psi-> mu+ mu- is developed for the general case where there can be many h+ h- final states of different angular momentum present. Here h refers to…

We examine some consequences of the QCD factorization approach to non-leptonic B decays into $\pi K$ and $\pi \pi$ final states, including a set of enhanced power corrections. Among the robust predictions of the approach we find small…

It is shown that it is possible to perform a model-independent extraction of the CKM Unitarity Triangle angle $\gamma$ using only the decays $B^0\to D K^+\pi^-$ with $D\to K^0_S\pi^+\pi^-$ and $B^0\to D K^+\pi^-$ with flavour-specific $D$…

Motivated by the recent LHCb collaboration measurements of charmless three-body decays of $\bar B_s^0$ meson, we calculate the branching fractions of $\bar B_s ^0 \to K^0 \pi^+\pi^-$, $\bar B_s ^0 \to K^0 K^+K^-$, $\bar B_s ^0 \to K^0…
