Two-body charmless hadronic decays of $B$ mesons are important for determining Standard Model parameters and for detecting the presence of new physics. We present recent results from the Belle experiment on the charmless hadronic decays…
We have fully reconstructed decays of both B0 and B- Mesons into final states containing either D, D*, D**, Psi, Psi', or Chi_{c1} mesons. This allows us to obtain new results on many physics topics including branching ratios, tests of the…
In this research the weak decay of $B^+_c$ decays to the $K^+K^-\pi^+$ final state, which is observed by LHCb collaboration for the first time, is calculated in the quasi-two-body decays which takes into account the $B^0_s$, $\chi_{c0}$ and…
