We present a test with which to evaluate the calculated isospin-symmetry-breaking corrections to superallowed 0+-to-0+ nuclear beta decay. The test is based on the corrected experimental Ft values being required to satisfy conservation of…
We present measurements of B meson decays to the final states omegaK*, omegarho, and omega f_0, where K* indicates a spin 0, 1, or 2 strange meson. The data sample corresponds to 465x10^6 BBbar pairs collected with the BABAR detector at the…
In this work we present the first steps towards benchmarking isospin symmetry breaking in ab initio nuclear theory for calculations of superallowed Fermi $\beta$-decay. Using the valence-space in-medium similarity renormalization group, we…
The interference of the $\rho^0$ and $\omega$ mesons has been studied in the hadronic and leptonic decay channels, i.e., dipion and dilepton decay channels respectively, but this interference is not studied yet in the semihadronic or…
We study the radiative $\rho$, $\omega$ and $\phi$ decay into $\pi^0 \pi^0 \gamma$ and $\pi^0 \eta \gamma $ taking into account mechanisms in which there are two sequential vector-vector-pseudoscalar or axial-vector--vector--pseudoscalar…
Searches for $B$ mesons decaying to final states containing a baryon and a lepton are performed, where the baryon is either $\Lambda_c$ or $\Lambda$ and the lepton is a muon or an electron. These decays violate both baryon and lepton number…
In this manuscript, I will report the details of our recent work on the vector meson-baryon (VB) interaction, which we studied with the motivation of finding dynamical generation of resonances in the corresponding systems. We started our…
The recently observed Y(4260) lies far above the decay threshold with a width less than 100 MeV. We argue that it's very difficult to accommodate Y(4260) as a conventional $c\bar c$ radial excitation or a D-wave state. It can't be a…
We investigate the weak decays of $B_c$ mesons in Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa favored and suppressed modes. We present a detailed analysis of the $B_c$ meson decaying to vector meson (V) and axial-vector meson (A) in the final state. We also…
In this work, we first propose the isovector $nD^{*}_0(2400)^0$ molecular state to explain the enhancement structure around 3250 MeV ($X_c(3250)^0$) in the $\Sigma_c^{++}\pi^-\pi^-$ invariant mass spectrum newly observed by the BaBar…
Using photon-photon collisions as a particularly transparent study case we investigate the production mechanisms for $B_c$ mesons. In nonrelativistic approximation and to $O(\alpha^2\alpha_s^2)$ it is shown that recombination of $\bar{b}$-…
The vector charmoniumlike state $Y(4220)$ was reported recently in the cross sections of $e^+e^-\to \omega \chi_{c0}$, $\pi^+\pi^-h_c$, $\pi^+\pi^- J/\psi$, and $D^0 D^{*-}\pi^+ + c.c.$ measured by the BESIII experiment. A combined fit is…
After application of an analytical transformation, a new exact representation for the nuclear isospin-symmetry breaking correction $\delta_C$ to superallowed beta decay is obtained. The correction is shown to be essentially the reciprocal…
Based on $4.481\times10^8$ $\psi(3686)$ events collected with the BESIII detector at BEPCII, the branching fraction of the isospin violating decay $\psi(3686)\rightarrow\bar{\Sigma}^{0}\Lambda+c.c.$ is measured to be $(1.60 \pm 0.31 \pm…
The strong-isospin violation in $\psi(3770)\rightarrow J/\psi + \pi^0$ via intermediate $D$ meson loops is investigated in an effective Lagrangian approach. In this process, there is only one $D$-meson loop contributing to the absorptive…
We introduce isospin breaking terms as well as (SU(3)) breaking terms to the anomalous (VVP) coupling in the hidden local symmetry scheme without affecting the low energy theorem on the processes such as (\pi\to 2 \gamma) and (\gamma\to…
The decay of $\Lambda_c^+$ into $\pi^+\pi^0\Lambda(1405)$ with the $\Lambda(1405)$ decay into $\pi^0\Sigma^0$ through a triangle diagram is studied. This process is initiated by $ \Lambda_c^+ \to \pi^+ \bar{K}^*N $, then the $\bar{K}^*$…
The experimental decay branching ratios of mesons like $B_s\to \ell\bar \ell$ and $B_d\to \ell\bar \ell$ ($\ell=e$ or $\mu$) do not agree completely with the standard model (SM). Cartan's supersymmetry predicts relation of the coupling of…
The absolute branching fraction of the decay $\Lambda_{c}(2625)^{+}\to \Lambda^{+}_{c}\pi^+\pi^-$ is measured for the first time to be $(50.7 \pm 5.0_{\rm{stat.}} \pm 4.9_{\rm{syst.}} )\%$ with 368.48 pb$^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ collision data…
We present the semileptonic decay of $B_{c}$ meson in a QCD potential model with the coulombic part of the Cornell potential $-\frac{4\alpha_{S}}{3r}+br+c$ as perturbation. Computing the slope and curvature of Isgur Wise function in this…
