Theoretically motivated smallness of the penguin amplitude in $B \to \pi \pi$ decays allowes to calculate the value of the unitarity triangle angle $\alpha (\phi_2)$ with good accuracy. The relatively large branching ratio of the decay into…

We present a systematic study of exclusive charmless nonleptonic two-body B decays including axial-vector mesons in the final state. We calculate branching ratios of B\to PA, VA and AA decays, where A, V and P denote an axial-vector, a…
We review the two and three-body baryonic $B$ decays with the dibaryon (${\bf B\bar B'}$) as the final states. Accordingly, we summarize the experimental data of the branching fractions, angular asymmetries, and $CP$ asymmetries. Using the…
We discuss exclusive charmless B decays within the Standard Model of particle physics. In particular, we consider hadronic two-body decays as B -> pi pi and perform a conceptual analysis of heavy-to-light form factors which encode the…
We calculate branching ratios for pure penguin decay modes, $B\to \phi K$ decays using perturbative QCD approach. Our results of branching ratios are consistent with the experimental data and larger than those obtained from the naive…

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…
The CLEO collaboration has studied two-body charmless hadronic decays of $B$ mesons into final states containing two pseudo-scalar mesons, or a pseudo-scalar and a vector meson. We summarize and discuss results presented during the…
We analyze the two-body charmed $B$ meson decays $B_{u,d,s} \to D^{(*)}P(V)$ in the factorization assisted topological amplitude approach, where $P(V)$ denoting a light pseudoscalar (vector) meson. Different from the conventional…
We discuss recent experimental studies of radiative penguin decays of B mesons by the Belle and BaBar collaborations.
The presence of additional strong phase from power corrections and other chirally enhanced terms makes it more difficult to predict direct CP asymmetries in two-body charmless B decays. In this talk, I would like to report on a recent work…
We present preliminary results from a search for inclusive charmless B->KX decays. These decays occur dominantly via one-loop b->s penguin transitions, and can provide useful information about these processes. Using a sample of 288.5/fb…

We address Standard Model predictions for flavor-changing radiative transitions of the pseudoscalar charm mesons. Short-distance contributions in $D$ radiative transitions are contrasted with those in B decays. A full analysis is presented…
We have studied two-body charmless hadronic decays of $B$ mesons into the final states phi K and phi K^*. Using 9.7 million $B\bar{B}$ pairs collected with the CLEO II detector, we observe the decays B- -> phi K- and B0 -> phi K*0 with the…
There exist two distinct ways in realizing the approximate SU(3) flavor symmetry of QCD to describe the two-body nonleptonic decays of charmed baryons: the irreducible SU(3) approach (IRA) and the topological diagram approach (TDA). The TDA…
