In view of the recent experimental developments on the experimental side in the $\eta \to \pi^0 \gamma \gamma$ decay, and the fact that the Particle Data Group in the on line edition of 2007 reports sizable changes of the radiative decay…
Applying the perturbative QCD ( PQCD ) method, we study the decay $B_c\rightarrow D_s^*\gamma$ in the standard model and multiscale walking technicolor model. In the SM, we find that the contribution of weak annihilation is more important…
We analyze the first measurement of $\eta_c$ production, performed by the LHCb Collaboration, in the nonrelativistic-QCD (NRQCD) factorization framework at next-to-leading order (NLO) in the strong-coupling constant $\alpha_s$ and the…
We use the BLM method to fix the renormalization scale of the QCD coupling in exclusive hadronic amplitudes such as the pion form factor and the photon-to-pion transition form factor at large momentum transfer.…
A new algorithm for analytic continuation of noisy quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) data from the Matsubara domain to real frequencies is proposed. Unlike the widely used maximum-entropy (MaxEnt) procedure, our method is linear with respect to…
Using a sample of $(1310.6\pm7.0)\times10^6$ $J/\psi$ events recorded with the BESIII detector at the symmetric electron positron collider BEPCII, we report the observation of the decay of the $(1^1 S_0)$ charmonium state $\eta_c$ into a…
Previously developed Pade-related method of resummation for QCD observables, which achieves exact renormalization-scale-invariance, is extended so that the scheme-invariance is obtained as well. The dependence on the leading scheme…
We study the decay processes of $B\rightarrow \rho\eta$, $\rho\eta^{\prime}$ in the perturbative quantum chromodynamics (QCD) approach with a few improvements incorporated in it, where the contributions with large momentum transfer are…
I present the QCD short distance coefficient $\eta_3$ of the $\Delta S=2$ hamiltonian in the \emph{next-to-leading order} (NLO) of renormalization group improved perturbation theory. Since now all QCD-factors $\eta_1$, $\eta_2$ and $\eta_3$…
We calculate the branching ratios and CP violating asymmetries of the four $B \to K \etap$ decays in the perturbative QCD (pQCD) factorization approach. Besides the full leading order contributions, the partial next-to-leading order (NLO)…
The radiative decays $\eta'(\eta)\rta\gamma\gamma$ are discussed. The modifications of the conventional PCAC formulae due to the gluonic contribution to the flavour singlet axial anomaly are given. The decay constants satisfy a modified…
The meson-photon transition form factors $\gamma\gamma^*\to P$ ($P$ stands for $\pi$, $\eta$ and $\eta'$) provide strong constraints on the distribution amplitudes of the pseudoscalar mesons. In this paper, these transition form factors are…
Due to the heavy-quark symmetry of Non-Relativistic Quantum Chromodynamics (NRQCD), the cross-section for the production of $\eta_c$ can be predicted. This NRQCD prediction when confronted with data from the LHCb is seen to fail miserably.…
In this paper, we study the properties of the pion-photon transition form factor (TFF), $\gamma\gamma^{\ast} \rightarrow \pi^{0}$, by using the principle of maximum commonality (PMC) to deal with its perturbative QCD contribution up to…
The ${\eta}_{c}(1S)$ ${\to}$ $PP^{\prime}$ decays are the parity violation modes. These decays can be induced by the weak interactions within the standard model, and have been searched for based on the available experimental data. To meet…
The chiral expansion of the low energy processes $\pi^0\to\gamma\gamma$ and $\eta\to\gamma\gamma$ is reconsidered with particular emphasis on the question of the evaluation of the two low-energy parameters from ${\cal L}^{WZ}_{(6)}$ which…
The decays of non-strange negative parity baryons via the emission of single $\pi$ and $\eta$ mesons are analyzed in the framework of the $1/N_c$ expansion. A basis of spin-flavor operators for the partial wave amplitudes is established to…
An outline is given of an extended perturbative solution of Euclidean QCD which systematically accounts for a class of nonperturbative effects, while allowing renormalization by the perturbative counterterms. Proper vertices Gamma are…
In this proceedings we briefly report on the state-of-the-art NLO QCD computation for the $pp\to t\bar{t}\gamma$ process in the di-lepton channel. We describe higher-order corrections to the $e^+\nu_e \, \mu^- \bar{\nu}_\mu \,…
The radiative decays of the pseudoscalar mesons $P=(\pi^0,\eta,\eta')$ are of special interest as they provide an experimental window on the electromagnetic and colour chiral $U_A(1)$ anomalies. $\pi^0\to\gamma\gamma$ is well described by…
