The rare hyperon decay $\Sigma^+ \to p \ell^+ \ell^-$ is a flavour-changing neutral current process mediated by an $s \to d$ transition that occurs only at loop level within the Standard Model. Consequently, this decay is highly suppressed,…
Doubly Cabibbo-suppressed (DCS) nonleptonic weak decays of antitriplet charmed baryons are studied systematically in this work. The factorizable and nonfactorizable contributions can be classified explicitly in the topological-diagram…
Weak decay tree and annihilation - t-channel W - exchange amplitudes for the D0 -> K0S pi+ pi- process are calculated using quasi two-body QCD factorization approach and unitarity constraints. Final state strong kaon-pion and pion-pion…
Among the light baryons, the $J^\pi = \frac{1}{2}^-$ $\Lambda(1405)$ hyperon is an important special case as it sits just below the $N\bar{K}$ threshold and decays almost exclusively to $\Sigma\pi$. Some long-standing hypotheses for…
Based on a data sample of an integrated luminosity of 57.4 fb-1 at the Upsilon(4S) resonance taken with the BaBar detector using the SLAC PEP-II asymmetric-energy $B$-Factory, hadronic decays of B meson with the final states D(*) and three…
We present the first determination of the hadronic decays of the lightest exotic $J^{PC}=1^{-+}$ resonance in lattice QCD. Working with SU(3) flavor symmetry, where the up, down and strange quark masses approximately match the physical…
In this work, we investigate the heavy-flavor conserving weak decays of charmed baryons, specifically the processes $\Xi_{c} \to \Lambda_{c} \pi$ and $\Omega_{c} \to \Xi_{c} \pi$, where the pole model is employed to account for the…
We report the first observation of the decay $\Lambda^{+}_{c} \rightarrow p K^{+} \pi^{-}$ using a 980 $\mathrm{fb^{-1}}$ data sample collected by the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^{+}e^{-}$ collider. This is the first…
The color-octet (CO) mechanism is a cornerstone of non-relativistic QCD, yet its long-distance matrix elements remain limited, preventing stringent tests of the theory. We demonstrate that the Artru-Collins asymmetry in hadronic decays of…
We study the |Delta I|=3/2 amplitudes of the octet-hyperon decays B -> B' + pion and of the decays Omega^- -> Cascade + pion in the context of heavy-baryon chiral perturbation theory. For the octet-hyperon decays, we investigate the…
We study the nonleptonic two-body weak decays of $\Lambda_b$ by modifying the MIT bag model without introducing new parameters to construct the momentum eigenstates of the baryons. We find that the branching ratios of $\Lambda_b^0 \to…
We investigate rare special dileptonic decays of $ \Lambda_b$, $\Sigma_b$ and $\Xi_b $ baryons in the Standard Model and context of the general Two-Higgs-Doublet Model with Type III. Specifically, we consider the decays $ \Lambda_b…
We analyze the two-body nonleptonic weak decays of charmed baryons, employing the pole approximation in tandem with the $SU(3)_F$ symmetry. We are able to make novel predictions for decay channels of $\Omega_c^0 \to {\bf B}_n P$ and ${\bf…
The nonleptonic decays $\Lambda_{b}\rightarrow\Sigma_{c}^{*-}\pi^{+},\Xi_{c}^{*0}K^{0}$ and $\Lambda_{b}\rightarrow\Delta^{0}D^{0},\Sigma^{*-}D_{0}^{+}$ are studied. In addition, the decays…
Motivated by the recent LHCb observation of doubly-charmed baryon $\Xi_{cc}^{++}$ in the $\Lambda_c^+ K^-\pi^+\pi^+$ final state, we analyze the weak decays of doubly heavy baryons $\Xi_{cc}$, $\Omega_{cc}$, $\Xi_{bc}$, $\Omega_{bc}$,…
Using a data sample of $e^+e^-$ collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.93 $fb^{-1}$ collected with the BESIII detector at a center-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s}= 3.773~GeV$,we search for the singly Cabibbo-suppressed…
Inspired by the recent observation of the $\Xi_{cc}^{++}$ by LHCb collaboration, we explore the "decay constants" of doubly heavy baryons in the framework of QCD sum rules. With the $\Xi_{cc}, \Xi_{bc}, \Xi_{bb}$, and $\Omega_{cc},…
The HyperCP experiment (Fermilab E871) has the largest recorded sample of $\Omega^-$ hyperon decays, allowing new searches for three rare decay modes, each with five charged tracks in the final state. Results are presented for…
We consider the interference of resonant amplitudes leading to the final state $K_S \pi^+ \pi^-$ in $D^0/\bar {D^0}$ decays. Each of these amplitudes consists of both Cabibbo allowed and doubly Cabibbo suppressed transitions. The role of…
We calculate the shape of the $\pi\Sigma$ and $\bar K N$ invariant mass distributions in the $\Lambda_b \to J/\psi\, \pi\Sigma$ and $\Lambda_b \to J/\psi \,\bar K N$ decays that are dominated by the $\Lambda(1405)$ resonance. The weak…
