With a distinctive internal structure from all established hadrons, the beauty-charmed baryons $\Xi_{bc}$ can provide us with new points of view to decipher the strong interaction. In this work, we point out that the inclusive $\Xi_{bc} \to…
We discuss two problems in the theory of heavy-quark decays: an understanding of the semileptonic branching ratio of $B$ mesons, and of the lifetime ratio $\tau(\Lambda_b)/\tau(B^0)$. We also present a model-independent study of spectator…

In perturbative QCD, the masses of the hadrons involved in high energy reactions can usually be neglected. However, in the case of Kaon production in electron-proton collisions at low (and not so low) beam energies this may not be a good…
