We present a preliminary measurement of the CP asymmetry in singly Cabibbo-suppressed D+ -> K-K+\pi+ decays and in the resonant decays D+ -> \phi \pi+ and D+ -> K*0 K+. We use a data sample of 79.9 fb^{-1} recorded by the BABAR detector.…

Inspired by the significant virtual contributions of the subprocesses $D^{*}/B^{*}\to D\pi$ and $ \rho\to\omega \pi/K\bar{K}$ in the three-body hadronic $B$ meson decays, we study the off-shell effects of the resonance $K^*$ decaying into…
The rare decays $B^0 \to D_s^- K^+$ and $B^+ \to D_s^+ \bar{K}^0$ can occur only via annihilation type diagrams in the standard model. We calculate these decays in perturbative QCD approach. We found that the calculated branching ratio of…
The modified perturbative approach in which transverse degrees of freedom as well as Sudakov suppressions are taken into account, is applied to $B$ decays into two $\pi$ mesons. The influence of various model parameters (CKM matrix…
It is very important to know the strength of annihilation contribution in B charmless nonleptonic decays. $\bar{B}_{s}\to \pi^{+}\pi^{-}$ process could serve a good probe of the strength. We have studied the process in QCD factorization…

In this work, we investigate six helicity amplitudes of the four-body $B_{(s)} \to (\pi\pi)(K\bar{K})$ decays in the perturbative QCD (PQCD) approach. The $\pi\pi$ invariant mass spectrum is dominated by the vector resonance $\rho(770)$…

The recently measured direct CP asymmetries in the processes $D^0\to \pi^+\pi^-$ and $D^0\to K^+K^-$ show a significant deviation from the naive Standard Model expectation. Using a general parameterization of the decay amplitudes, we show…
In the perturbative QCD (PQCD) approach we study the direct $CP$ violation in $B^+_{c}\rightarrow D_{(s)}^+\rho^0(\omega) \rightarrow D_{(s)}^+\pi^+\pi^-$ via the $\rho-\omega$ mixing mechanism. We find that the $CP$ violation can be…
