We present estimates of the direct (in decay amplitudes) and indirect (mixing- induced) CP-violating asymmetries in the non-leptonic charmless two-body decay rates for $B \to PP$, $B \to PV$ and $B \to VV$ decays and their charged…
The three-body charmless hadronic decay $B^0_s \rightarrow K^{0}_{\rm S} \pi^{+}\pi^{-}$ provides a number of novel possibilities to search for CP violation effects and test the Standard Model of particle physics. These include fits to the…
Direct CP violation can exist in untagged B-meson decays to self-conjugate, three-particle final states; it would be realized as a population asymmetry in the untagged decay rate across the mirror line of the Dalitz plot of the three-body…
The decay process $B\to D^+ D^- \pi^0$ is an interesting channel for the investigation of CP violating effects in the $b-$ sector. We write down a decay amplitude constrained by a low-energy theorem, which also includes the contribution of…
The QCD factorization (QCDF) method usually contains infrared divergences which introduce large model dependence to its predictions on charmless B decays. The amplitudes of charmless B decays can be decomposed into "tree" and "penguin"…
Some recent progress in China in the study of charmless B decays with QCD factorization is reviewed. Chirally enhanced power corrections and infrared divergence problem are stressed.
We present a summary of the latest measurements of branching fractions and direct CP violations in the charmless hadronic two-body B decays B -> K^+ pi^-, K^+ pi^0, K^0 pi^+ and K^0 pi^0, performed by the Belle, BABAR, CDF and CLEO…
In this work we study the quasi-two-body decays $B\to K^*\gamma\to K\pi\gamma$ in the perturbative QCD (PQCD) approach. The two-meson distribution amplitudes (DAs) are introduced to describe the final state interactions of the $K\pi$ pair,…
We study the effects of the MSSM contribution on B -> phi K decays using the perturbative QCD approach. In this approach, strong phases can be calculated, so that we can predict the values of CP asymmetries with the MSSM contribution. We…
We apply the QCD factorization approach to exclusive, radiative B meson decays in the region of small invariant photon mass. We calculate factorizable and non-factorizable corrections to leading order in the heavy quark mass expansion and…

In this work, we studied the quasi-two-body decays $B_{(s)} \to \psi [K^*(892), K^*(1410),$ $K^*(1680)] \to \psi K\pi$ by employing the perturbative QCD (PQCD) factorization approach, where the charmonia $\psi$ represents $J/\psi$ and…
The $B \to \kappa \bar \kappa$ decays are investigated for the first time in the perturbative QCD formalism based on the $k_T$ factorization theorem, where the light scalar $\kappa$ is assumed as a two-quark state. Our numerical results and…
We discuss exclusive radiative decays in QCD factorization within the Standard Model. In particular, we consider the decays B -> V gamma, with a vector meson K* or rho in the final state, and the double radiative modes B_s -> gamma gamma…
We investigate the branching ratios and direct CP asymmetries of $B_c^+\to D^0\pi^+$ and $B_c^+\to D^+\pi^0$ decays in the PQCD approach. All the diagrams with emission topology or annihilation topology are calculated strictly. A branching…

Exclusive semileptonic B decays to the lightest excited charmed mesons are investigated at order $\Lambda_{QCD}/m_Q$ in the heavy quark effective theory. At zero recoil, $\Lambda_{QCD}/m_Q$ corrections to the matrix elements of the weak…
We study the direct CP violation effect in the decay mode $B^+ \to \phi K^+$. This decay mode is dominated by the loop induced $\bar b \to \bar s s \bar s$ penguin diagram with a tiny contribution from annihilation diagram. Therefore, the…
