A fully covariant model for describing the electromagnetic decay of Vector Mesons, both in light and in heavy sectors, is presented. The main ingredients of our approach are i) an Ansatz for the Bethe-Salpeter vertex for Vector Mesons, and…

In this work, we make a study of $T_{cc}^+$ state observed by the LHCb collaboration in 2021. In obtaining the effective potentials using the One-Boson-Exchange Potential Model we use an exponential form factor, and find that in the short…

We present an investigation of the decays $\bar{B}^0 \to \Lambda_{c}^{+} \bar{p}$ and $B^- \to \Lambda_{c}^{+} \bar{p} \pi^-$ based on $383\times10^6$ $\Upsilon(4S) \to B\bar{B}$ decays recorded with the BABAR detector. We measure the…

We compute the amplitudes for the two-body decay of $B$ mesons into longitudinally polarized light vector mesons at next-to-leading order in QCD. We give the explicit expressions in QCD factorization for all 34 transitions of a heavy-light…

By analyzing a 2.93~$\rm fb^{-1}$ data sample of $e^+e^-$ collisions, recorded at a center-of-mass energy of 3.773 $\rm \,GeV$ with the BESIII detector operated at the BEPCII collider, we have searched for the semileptonic $D^+$ transition…

In the X(3872) decay, both of the J/\psi\pi\pi\ and J/\psi\pi\pi\pi\ branching fractions are observed experimentally, and their sizes are comparable to each other. In order to clarify the mechanism to cause such a large isospin violation,…

Influence of the isospin-violating (\rho^0, \omega)-mixing is discussed for any pair of decays of \rho^0, \omega into the same final state. It is demonstrated, in analogy to the CP-violation in neutral kaon decays, that isospin violation…

We discuss the consequences of the approximate conservation of the vector and axial currents for the hadronic matrix elements appearing in beta decay if non-standard interactions are present. In particular the isovector (pseudo)scalar…

The extra contributions due to an extra generation of vector-like quarks to the isospin symmetry breaking observable associated with the radiative B->K^* \gamma decay is obtained. It is shown that this additional contribution is sensitive…

The approximate symmetry of the strong interactions under isospin transformations is among the most precise tools available to control hadronic matrix elements. It is crucial in extracting fundamental parameters, but also provides avenues…

Isospin is an almost exact symmetry of strong interactions and the corrections to the isosymmetric limit are, in general, at the percent level. For several hadronic quantities relevant for flavour physics phenomenology, such as pseudoscalar…

The LHCb Collaboration has recently reported the first observation of the decay $\bar B_s^0\to \Lambda_c^+\bar\Lambda_c^-$, along with measurements of the branching fractions for both $\bar B^0\to \Lambda_c^+\bar\Lambda_c^-$ and $\bar…

We study $e^{+}e^{-}$ collisions with a $\pi^{+}\pi^{-}\pi^{0}\eta_{c}$ final state using data samples collected with the BESIII detector at center-of-mass energies $\sqrt{s}=4.226$, $4.258$, $4.358$, $4.416$, and $4.600$ GeV. Evidence for…

Strong decays of vector ($^3S_1$) mesons to the pair of pseudoscalar ($^1S_0$) mesons are considered in the framework of the microscopic decay mechanism and the relativistic quark model based on the quasipotential approach. The…

It is shown that, in the bound state picture, the $\Lambda_c(2593) \to\Lambda_c\gamma$ and $\Lambda_c(2625)\to\Lambda_c\gamma$ decays are severely suppressed. On the other hand, for their bottom counterparts, which are predicted to have…

In this review we give a perspective of the theoretical work done recently on the interpretation of results from $B$, $D$, $\Lambda_b$, $\Lambda_c$ weak decays into final states that contain interacting hadrons, and how it is possible to…

We report on a comparison of two possible $\Lambda_c^+$ spin hypotheses, $J=\frac{1}{2}$ and $\frac{3}{2}$, via the process $e^+e^-\to\Lambda_c^+\bar\Lambda_c^-$, using the angular distributions of $\Lambda_c^+$ decays into $pK_S^0$,…

In the large $N_c$ limit, the $\Lambda_b$ and $\Lambda_c$ can be treated as bound states of chiral solitons and mesons containing a heavy quark. We show that the soliton and heavy meson are bound in an attractive harmonic oscillator…

In this paper, we study CP violation in $\Lambda_c^+\to BP$ and $\Lambda_c^+\to BV$ decays, where $B,P$ and $V$ denote a light spin-1/2 baryon, pseudoscalar and a vector meson respectively. In these processes the $T$ odd CP violating…
