We study the potential of radiative decays of the Upsilon(1S) and of the phi mesons to search for a light pseudoscalar Higgs boson, proposed as a possible interpretation of Sigma+ --> p mu+mu- events observed by the HyperCP collaboration at…
The inclusive light hadronic decays of 1D_2 heavy quarkonia are studied within the framework of NRQCD at the leading order in $v$ and up to the order of $\alpha_s^3$. With one-loop QCD corrections, the infrared divergences and Coulomb…
With the potential prospects of the ${\Upsilon}(1S)$ data samples at the running LHC and upcoming SuperKEKB, the ${\Upsilon}(1S)$ ${\to}$ $B_{c}{\rho}$ weak decays are studied with the pQCD approach. It is found that (1) the lion's share of…
We compute the third-order corrections to the heavy quarkonium spectrum and production/annihilation rates due to the leading renormalization group running of the static potential. The previously known complete ${\cal O}(m_q\alpha_s^5)$…
The charged lepton spectrum in semileptonic $B\to X_u \ell\bar\nu$ decay near maximal lepton energy receives important corrections from subleading structure functions that are formally suppressed by powers of $\Lambda_{QCD}/m_b$ but are…
We give results for the Upsilon spectrum from lattice QCD using an improved version of the NRQCD action for b quarks which includes radiative corrections to kinetic terms at O(v^4) in the velocity expansion. We also include for the first…
We present a new factorization theorem for the decay rates of P-wave states of heavy quarkonia. Infrared logarithms that had appeared in previous perturbative calculations of P-wave decays are absorbed into a quantity that is related to the…
We present a QCD-based approach to the endpoint region of the lepton spectrum in $\bar B\to X_u\,\ell\,\bar\nu$ decays. We introduce a genuinely nonperturbative form factor, the shape function, which describes the fall-off of the spectrum…
We study inclusive semi-leptonic (B -> X_c \ell \nu) decay using the power counting m_c ~ \sqrt{Lambda_{QCD} m_b}. Assuming this scaling for the charm-quark mass, the decay kinematics can be chosen to access the shape-function region even…
Electromagnetic properties provide information about the structure of strongly interacting systems and allow for independent tests of hadronic models. The radiative decay of the Delta(1700) is studied, which appears dynamically generated in…
We revisit the heavy quarkonium leptonic decays $\psi(nS) \to \ell^+\ell^-$ and $\Upsilon(nS) \to \ell^+\ell^-$ using the Bethe-Salpeter method. The emphasis is on the relativistic correction. For the $\psi(1S-5S)$ decays, the relativistic…
The radiative decay is believed to be an ideal lab to study hadronic structure of newly observed resonances because the reactions are governed by only the electromagnetic interaction (tree level). However, to obtain correct theoretical…
We study the analytic structure of partial-wave amplitudes derived from u- and t-channel exchange processes. The latter plays a crucial role in dispersion-theory approaches to coupled-channel systems that model final state interactions in…
Theoretical predictions for inclusive semileptonic B decay rates are rewritten in terms of the Upsilon(1S) meson mass instead of the b quark mass, using a modified perturbation expansion. This method gives theoretically consistent and…
Radiative decays of heavy baryons are analyzed within the Heavy Quark Symmetry (HQS). It is shown that employing the light-diquark symmetries, the number of electromagnetic couplings among S-wave and P-wave states as well as those between…
We report on the result of some investigations concerning the radiative decays of decuplet baryons and the non-leptonic weak decays of the octet baryons in the context of topological chiral soliton models. Our results are compared with…
Motivated by recent experimental progress in studying weak decays of the $\Lambda_c$ baryon we investigate its semileptonic decays in the framework of the relativistic quark model based on the quasipotential approach with the QCD-motivated…
We discuss the theoretical framework required for the computation of radiative corrections to semileptonic decay rates in lattice simulations, and in particular to those for $K_{\ell3}$ decays. This is an extension of the framework we have…
We investigate the effects produced by the three-momentum scale $\sqrt{m\Lambda_{QCD}}$ in the strong coupling regime of heavy quarkonium. We compute the leading non-vanishing contributions due to this scale to the masses and inclusive…
The spectroscopy of light, strange baryons have been an important aspect with still unknown resonances and intrinsic baryonic properties. The present document is focused on the $\Delta$ baryons unlike earlier work, here all the four isospin…
