We study consequences of the non-forward amplitude for the semileptonic baryon decay Lambda_b into Lambda_c which will be measured in detail at LHCb. We obtain a sum rule for the subleading elastic Isgur-Wise (IW) function A(w) that…
We present results for different observables in weak decays of pseudoscalar and vector mesons with a heavy $c$ or $b$ quark. The calculations are done in a nonrelativistic constituent quark model improved at some instances by heavy quark…
Using $(10087\pm44)\times 10^{6}$ $J/\psi$ events collected with the BESIII detector, numerous $\Xi^-$ and $\Lambda$ decay asymmetry parameters are simultaneously determined from the process $J/\psi \to \Xi^- \bar{\Xi}^+ \to \Lambda(p\pi^-)…
The decay asymmetries of the weak radiative Hyperon decays Xi0 \to Lambda gamma and Xi0 \to Sigma0 gamma have been measured with high precision using data of the NA48/1 experiment at CERN. From about 52000 Xi0 \to Lambda gamma and 15000 Xi0…
We present the first perturbative QCD calculations of the $\Xi_b \to (\Lambda, \Sigma)$ transition form factors at leading order in $\alpha_s$, which govern the Cabibbo-suppressed semileptonic decays $\Xi_b \to (\Lambda, \Sigma)\ell…
Branching ratios observed for $D$ and B decays to final states $a_1(1260)^{\pm} X$ are comparable to those for corresponding decays to $\pi^{\pm} X$ and $\rho^{\pm} X$ and much larger than those for all other decays. Implications are…

I report on recent developments in the heavy-quark effective theory and its application to $B$ meson decays. The parameters of the effective theory, the spin-flavor symmetry limit, and the leading symmetry-breaking corrections to it are…
An explanation of the difference in the values of the apparent $f/d$ ratios for the S- and P- wave amplitudes of nonleptonic hyperon decays is proposed. The argument is formulated in the framework of the standard pole model with…
Based on the most recent data in charmless B decays including the very recently reported large direct CP violations, it is shown that the weak phase gamma can well be extracted without two-fold ambiguity even only from two decay modes…
Applications of QCD sum rules to exclusive decays of heavy mesons are reviewed. In detail, we discuss the calculations of the B and $D$ decay constants, the heavy-to-light form factors $f^+(p^2)$ and $f^0(p^2)$, and the strong couplings…
In this article, we present a complete classification of the negative parity $\Xi'_{c/b}$ and $\Xi_{c/b}$ $P$-wave states: 7 belonging to the $SU(3)$ flavor sextet and 7 to the flavor anti-triplet, the calculation of the $\Xi'_{c/b}$ and…
The LHCb Collaboration announced the observation of doubly charmed baryon through $\Xi_{c c}^{++} \rightarrow \Lambda_{c}^{+} K^{-} \pi^{+} \pi^{+}$ in 2017. Since then, a series of studies of doubly heavy baryons have been presented.…
We study the semileptonic $b\to c$ decays of the lowest-lying triply-heavy baryons made from $b$ and $c$ quarks in the limit $m_b, m_c \gg \Lambda_\mathrm{QCD}$ and close to the zero recoil point. The separate heavy quark spin symmetries…
We underline a problem existing in the heavy quark limit of QCD concerning the rates of semileptonic B decays into P-wave $D_J(j)$ mesons, where $j = {1 \over 2}$ (wide states) or $j = {3 \over 2}$ (narrow states). The leading order sum…
The $K\to\pi\pi$ decay amplitudes are studied within the framework of generalized factorization in which the effective Wilson coefficients are gauge-invariant, renormalization-scale and -scheme independent while factorization is applied to…
We study in detail the prediction for the semileptonic decays $\bar{B} \to D (D^*) \pi \ell \bar{\nu}$ by heavy quark and chiral symmetry. The branching ratio for $\bar{B} \to D \pi \ell \bar{\nu}$ is quite significant, as big as…

The matrix element of the weak transition {\Lambda}_b\rightarrow{\Lambda}_c can be expressed in terms of six form factors. {\Lambda}_Q(Q = b;c) can be regarded as composed of a heavy quark Q(Q = b;c) and a diquark which is made up of the…
