We present a full calculation of the amplitudes for $B_{d[s]} \to \gamma \gamma$ in a simple ACD model that extends an incomplete one in a previous paper. We find cancellations between the contributions from different KK towers and a small…
The leptonic radiative decay $B \to \gamma l\nu$ is of great importance in the determination of $B$ meson wave functions, and evaluating the form factors $ F_{V,A}$ are the essential problem on the study of this channel. We computed…
In the framework of perturbative QCD, the radiative decays $J/\psi\rightarrow\gamma\eta^{(\prime)}$ are revisited in detail, where the involved one-loop integrals are evaluated analytically with the light quark masses kept. We have found…
The inclusive decay rate b to ccs is enhanced considerably due to perturbative QCD corrections. We recalculate the dominant part of the NLO-QCD corrections, because they cannot be reconstructed from the literature and we give the full…

We present the QCD and QED corrections to the fermion-loop contributions to light-by-light scattering, gamma gamma to gamma gamma, in the ultrarelativistic limit where the kinematic invariants are much larger than the masses of the charged…
To leading order in $\alpha_s$, we evaluate the leading and non-leading $1/M_b$ corrections to the $B^*B\pi$ and $B^*B\gamma$ couplings using QCD spectral moment sum rules in the full theory. We find that, for large $M_b$ and contrary to…
Within the framework of the Standard Model Higgs extensions, including the Two-Higgs-Doublet Model with vector-like fermions and the Triplet-Higgs Model, we derive general one-loop contributions to the rare decay process $A \rightarrow Z…
The claim that the light quark mass ratio (m_d - m_u)/m_s can be extracted from the decay width ratio Gamma(eta' -> pi^0 pi^+ pi^-)/Gamma(eta' -> eta pi^+ pi^-) is critically investigated within a U(3) chiral unitary framework. The…
In the framework of perturbative QCD approach, we calculate the branching ratio and CP asymmetry for $B_{s}^0(\bar{B}_{s}) \to \pi^{\pm} K^\mp$ and $B_{s}(\bar{B}_{s})\to \pi^{0}\bar{K}^{0}(K^{0})$ decays. Besides the usual factorizable…
We compute the leading-log QED, the next-to-leading-log QED-QCD, and the electroweak corrections to the charm quark contribution relevant for the rare decay K+ -> pi+ nu nu-bar. The corresponding parameter P_c(X) is increased by up to 2%…
We consider the rare decay $\eta\to\pi^0\pi^0\gamma\gamma$ and calculate the non-resonant contribution to the amplitude to one loop in Chiral Perturbation Theory. We display our result as both a diphoton energy spectrum and a partial decay…
Recent developements in the calculation of the NNLO QCD corrections to the charm quark mass dependent matrix elements in B -> X_s gamma are reported. Special emphasis is put on the new results of the virtual O(alpha_s^2) fermionic…
We study $B\to \pi\pi$ decay with a modified perturbative QCD approach. The branching ratios and $CP$ violation are calculated with the transverse momenta of partons considered. Sudakov factor associated with each meson is included to…
We use vector meson dominance to calculate non-perturbative contributions to the branching ratio of the rare decay $K^\pm \to \pi^\pm \nu\bar \nu$ stemming from matrix elements involving up-quark loops. The importance of this observable as…

We calculate the main observables in $B_{u,d}\to (\rho,\omega,K^*)\gamma$ and $B_s\to (\bar K^*,\phi)\gamma$ decays, i.e. branching ratios and CP and isospin asymmetries. We include QCD factorisation results and also the dominant…
We relate here the vacuum structure of chiral symmetry breaking to a wide class of low energy hadronic properties to examine consistency with experimental results. Phase transition of chiral symmetry breaking is described through explicit…
The decay modes of the type $B \to \pi \, D $ are dynamically different. For the case $\bar{B_{d}^0} \to \pi^- D^{+} $ there is a substantial factorized contribution which dominates. In contrast, the decay mode $\bar{B_{d}^0} \to \pi^0…
