We derive several relations between CP violating rate differences $\Delta(B\to PV) = \Gamma(B\to PV) - \Gamma(\bar B \to \bar P \bar V)$ for charmless $B\to P V$ decays in the Standard Model using SU(3) flavor symmetry. It is found that…
The LHCb collaboration has recently measured the first direct CP violation in $B^0_s$ decays with a rate asymmetry $A_{CP}(B^0_s\to K^- \pi^+)$ given by $0.27 \pm 0.04(stat)\pm 0.01(syst)$. At the same time they also made the most precise…
The recent LHCb measurements of the $B_s \to K^-\pi^+$ and $B_s \to K^+K^-$ rates and CP asymmetries are in agreement with U-spin expectations from $B_d \to K^+\pi^-$ and $B_d \to \pi^+\pi^-$ results. We derive the complete set of isospin,…
In this paper we study CP violation in $B\to PP$ decays in the Standard Model using SU(3) flavor symmetry. With SU(3) symmetry only seven hadronic parameters are needed to describe $B\to PP$ decays in the SM when annihilation contributions…
In this paper, we perform fits to $B \to PP$ decays, where $B = \{B^0, B^+, B_s^0\}$ and the pseudoscalar $P = \{\pi, K\}$, under the assumption of flavor SU(3) symmetry [SU(3)$_F$]. Although the fits to $\Delta S=0$ or $\Delta S=1$ decays…
The decays $B \to PP$, where $P$ denotes a pseudoscalar meson, are analyzed, with emphasis on charmless final states. Numerous triangle relations for amplitudes hold within SU(3) symmetry, relating (for example) the decays $B^+ \to \pi^+…
The decays of $B$ mesons to a pair of charmless pseudoscalar mesons ($PP$ decays) or to a vector and pseudoscalar meson ($VP$ decays) have been analyzed within the framework of flavor SU(3) symmetry and the Kobayashi-Maskawa mechanism of CP…
Several baryons containing a heavy b-quark, the b-baryons, have been discovered. The charmless two-body decays of b-baryons can provide a new platform for CP violating studies in a similar way as charmless two-body decays of B-meson. In…
Several baryons containing a heavy b-quark have been discovered. The decays of these states provide new platform for testing the standard model (SM). We study $CP$ violation in SM for charmless two-body decays of the flavor $SU(3)$…
TThe LHCb collaboration has recently reported evidence for non-zero CP asymmetries in $B^+$ decays into $\pi^+ K^+ K^-,\; \pi^+\pi^+\pi^-,\; K^+ K^+ K^- $ and $K^+\pi^+\pi^-$. The branching ratios for these decays have also been measured…
Recently, $B\to PP$ decays ($B = \{B^0, B^+, B_s^0\}$, $P = \{ \pi, K \}$) were analyzed under the assumption of flavor SU(3) symmetry (SU(3)$_F$). Although the individual fits to $\Delta S=0$ or $\Delta S=1$ decays are good, it was found…

We prove that CP violating rate difference $\Delta (\bar B^0 \rightarrow \pi^+\pi^-) = \Gamma (\bar B^0 \rightarrow \pi^+\pi^-) - \Gamma ( B^0 \rightarrow \pi^-\pi^+)$ is related to $\Delta (\bar B^0 \rightarrow \pi^+ K^-) = \Gamma (\bar…

QCD sum rules are used to estimate the flavour SU(3)-symmetry violation in two-body B decays to pions and kaons. In the factorizable amplitudes the SU(3)-violation manifests itself in the ratio of the decay constants f_K/f_pi and in the…
