A number of charmonium- and bottomonium-like meson states have been observed that have properties that do not match well to expectations for the simple quark-antiquark substructure suggested by the constituent quark model. Some of them are…
We study the charmful three-body baryonic B decays with $D^{(*)}$ or $J/\Psi$ in the final state. We explain the measured rates of $\bar B^0\to n\bar p D^{*+}$, $\bar B^0\to p\bar p D^{(*)0}$, and $B^-\to \Lambda \bar p J/\Psi$. In…
In this work we have studied hadronic charmless two-body B decays involving p-wave mesons in final state. We have calculated branching ratios of $B\to AT$ decays (where $A$ and $T$ denotes a $^3P_1$ axial-vector and a tensor meson,…
The beauty hadron decays is unique laboratory to study charmonium and charmonium-like states, such as the $\chi_{c1}(3872)$ meson, other exotic states and the tensor D-wave $\psi_2(3823$) states. However the nature of many exotic…
