$B_d$ and $B_s$ meson systems play a fundamental role to test and improve our understanding of Standard Model flavor dynamics. The mixing parameters $\Delta m_{d,s}$ represent important constraints in the unitarity triangle analysis. Their…

The covariant density matrix formalism is used to obtain the joint angular distribution of the decay B_s -> J/\psi \phi(1020) with subsequent \phi -> \rho \pi and J/\psi -> \ell^+ \ell^- decays. The result is shown algebraically to be a…

The first observation of the $B^0_s\to\bar{D}^0 K^0_S$ decay mode and evidence for the $B^0_s\to\bar{D}^{*0} K^0_S$ decay mode are reported. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 $\text{fb}^{-1}$ collected in $pp$…

We report the final CDF measurement of the $B^0_s$ mixing phase, mean lifetime, and decay-width difference through the fit of the time evolution of flavor-tagged $B^0_s \rightarrow J/\psi \phi$ decays. The measurement is based on the full…

Four decay modes of the $B_c^+$ meson into a $J/\psi$ meson and multiple charged kaons or pions are studied using proton-proton collision data, collected with the~LHCb detector at centre-of-mass energies of 7, 8, and 13~TeV and…

The paper deals with a next-to-leading order analysis of the radiative $B \to K^* \gamma$ decay. Working in a PQCD approach, we compute the correction to the essential form factor, coming from a single gluon exchange with the spectator. We…

We compute the supersymmetric (SUSY) contributions to the observables in Bs-->K+K- and Bs-->K0 anti-K0 decays. The hadronic parameters in the standard-model (SM) amplitudes are obtained from the Bd-->K0 anti-K0 decay using a recent approach…

Recent results on charmonia decays at BES/BEPC are reported, including the observation of psi'-->K_S K_L, psi'--> Vector + Tensor for the measurement of the relative phase between the strong and electromagnetic decays of psi' and a test of…

If physics beyond the standard model is present in B decays, experimental measurements seem to suggest that it principally affects those processes with significant b->s penguin amplitudes. It was recently argued that, in general, such…

Constraining CKM parameters from charmless hadronic B decays requires methods for addressing the hadronic uncertainties. A complete technique is presented, using relations between amplitudes in the B, Bs -> pipi, Kpi, KK system obtained in…

Correlations are shown to arise in nonidentical mixed-particle pairs like $K^o \bar K^o$ when observed in identical decay modes like $K_S K_S$ in multiparticle final states containing many partial waves. No enhancement is found in any…

The interference between Bs decay amplitudes to CP eigenstates Jpsi X directly or including Bs-Bsbar oscillation gives rise to a measurable CP violating phase phi_s. Here, a preliminary measurement of phi_s with Bs -> JpsiK+K- decays, and…
