Belle has observed surprisingly copious production of $\psi(3770)$ in $B$ meson decay $B\to \psi(3770)K$, of which the rate is comparable to that of $B\to \psi(3686)K$. We study this puzzling process in the QCD factorization approach with…

$B^\pm \to (D^0, \bar D^0, D_{CP})K^{*\pm}_{0,2}$ decays are helpful in determining the CP violation angle $\gamma$, and we analyze these decay processes within the perturbative QCD approach based on $k_T$ factorization. We found that the…
