The current knowledge on the $D_{s}^{\ast}$ meson are very limited. Besides the dominant electromagnetic decays, the $D_{s}^{\ast}$ weak decays are legal and offer the valuable opportunities to explore the wanted $D_{s}^{\ast}$ meson. In…
We present the results of our lattice QCD study of the $g_{D^* D\pi}i$ coupling, relevant to the $D^\ast \to D\pi$ decay. Our computation is made on the gauge field configurations that include $N_f=2$ dynamical light quarks by using the…
We study the line shapes of radiative $\phi$-decays involving virtual $f_{0}(980)$ and $a_{0}(980)$ mesons which decay, via derivative couplings, to $\pi^{0}\pi^{0}$ and $\pi^{0}\eta$ respectively. After developing the formalism for…
We present a phenomenological description of the LHCb data for the magnitudes and phases of the $\pi^-\pi^+$ $S$-wave amplitudes in the $D^+\to\pi^-\pi^+\pi^+$ and $D^+_s\to\pi^-\pi^+\pi^+$ decays. We operate within a simple model that…
Interactions between the products of the hadronic decays of different Ws in WW pair events can occur at several stages: from the colour rearrangement between the quarks coming from the primary branching, to the gluon exchange during the…
We propose a model for $D^+ \to \pi^+ \pi^- \pi^+$ decays following experimental results which indicate that the two-pion interaction in the $S$-wave is dominated by the scalar resonances $f_0(600)/\sigma$ and $f_0(980)$. The weak decay…
The role of inelastic final-state interactions in CP asymmetries and branching ratios is investigated in certain chosen single isospin two-body hadronic B decays. Treating final-state interactions through Pomeron and Regge exchanges, we…
We construct an effective non-relativistic quantum field theory that describes bound states of pi+ pi- pairs and their hadronic decays. We then derive a general expression for the lifetime of the ground state at next-to-leading order in…
In order to study diffractive dissociation reactions, COMPASS has taken data with a 190 GeV/$c$ pion beam impinging on a liquid hydrogen target in 2008 and 2009. At squared four-momentum transfers to the target t' between 0.1 GeV$^2/c^2$…
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…
The effects of the final state interaction (FSI) in semi-exclusive deep-inelastic scattering of electrons off the deuteron are analyzed paying particular attention to two extreme kinematical regions: i) the one where FSI effects are…
By use of current experimental data, we carry out an isospin analysis of the weak decays $B\rightarrow D\pi, D^{*}\pi$ and $D\rho$. It is found that only in $B\rightarrow D\rho$ the strong phase shift of two different isospin amplitudes can…
Rare $b\to s\ell^+\ell^-$ decays provide some of the most sensitive tests of the Standard Model and require precise and systematically improvable hadronic input from lattice QCD. For the phenomenologically important channel $B\to…
We discuss strategies to determine hadronic decay couplings from lattice studies. As an application, we explore the decay of a vector meson to two pseudoscalar mesons with $N_f=2$ flavours of sea quark. Although we are working with quark…

Hadronic decay modes $D^0\to(\bar K^0, \bar K^{*0})\eta,\eta'$ and $(D^+,D_s^+)\to(\pi^+,\rho^+)\eta,\eta'$ are studied in the generalized factorization approach. Form factors for $(D,D_s^+)\to(\eta,\eta')$ transitions are carefully…
A strong violation of the $\displaystyle{\Delta I = {1\over 2}} $ rule has experimentally been found in the $\displaystyle{D \to \pi\pi}$ decays [1]. In this letter we will show that the order of magnitude of this violation can be…
