We observe a narrow enhancement near 2m_p in the invariant mass spectrum of p\bar{p} pairs from radiative J/psi-->gamma p\bar{p} decays. No similar structure is seen in J/psi-->pi0 p\bar{p} decays. The results are based on an analysis of a…
We report measurements of the inclusive electron energy spectrum and hadron invariant mass spectrum for charmed semileptonic decays of B mesons in a 140 fb^-1 data sample collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB e+e- collider. We…
The strong and radiative decays of the low-lying $S$- and $P$-wave $\Lambda_{c(b)}$, $\Sigma_{c(b)}$, $\Xi_{c(b)}$, $\Xi_{c(b)}'$ and $\Omega_{c(b)}$ baryons are systematically studied in a constituent quark model. We find that the…

We systematically investigate the mass spectrum and two-body open-charm strong decays of charmonium states in a coupled-channel model where the $^3P_0$ quark-antiquark pair creation mechanism is employed. The results of masses, mass shifts,…
We present a study of hadronic transitions between Y(mS) (m=4,3,2) and Y(nS) (n=2,1) resonances based on 347.5\invfb of data taken with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II storage rings. We report the first observation of Y(4S)-> eta Y(1S)…
In this work, we study the $\Xi_c$ baryon electromagnetic decay widths within the constituent quark model formalism through an analysis of the transitions from $P-$wave states to ground states. We use the non-relativistic limit of the…
In this work, we revisit the $3S$-$2D$ mixing scheme for the charmonia $\psi(4040)$ and $\psi(4160)$. We introduce a coupled-channel mechanism-distinct from the tensor-force contribution in potential models, which alone is insufficient to…
We employ the variational method to study the properties such as masses, decay constants, oscillation frequency and branching ratios of leptonic decays of heavy flavour mesons with linear cum coulomb Cornell potential. Gaussian function,…
We derive a theoretically allowed domain for the charge radius $\rho$ and curvature $c$ of the Isgur-Wise function describing the decay $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda_c l {\bar \nu_l}$. Our method uses crossing symmetry, dispersion relations and…
In this work we study the radiative decays of heavy-light quarkonia through M1 and E1 transitions, that involve quark-triangle diagrams with two hadron vertices, and are difficult to evaluate in BSE-CIA. We have expressed the transition…
The decay rates and spectroscopy of the $Q \bar Q$ $(Q \in c, b)$ mesons are computed in non-relativistic phenomenological quark antiquark potential of the type $V(r)=-\frac{\alpha_c}{r}+A r^{\nu}$, (CPP$_{\nu}$) with different choices…
The experimentally known $B_c$ states are all below open bottom-charm threshold, which experience three main decay modes, and all induced by weak interaction. In this work, we investigate the mass spectrum and strong decays of the $B_c(3S)$…
This paper presents a thorough study of the local and nonlocal amplitudes in $B^+ \to K^+\mu^+\mu^-$ transitions through an amplitude analysis of the dimuon mass spectrum of the decay. The analysis is based on $pp$ collision data…
Inspired from the experimental information coming from LHC [2,3] and Babar [4] for radially higher excited charmed mesons, we predict the masses and decays of the n=2 S-wave and P- wave bottom mesons using the effective lagrangian approach.…
In this work, we predict two charged charmonium-like structures close to the $D^\ast\bar{D}$ and $D^\ast\bar{D}^\ast$ thresholds, where the Initial Single Pion Emission mechanism is introduced in the hidden-charm dipion decays of higher…
Some of the non-relativistic QQ/bar interaction potentials and its isospectral partner-potentials have been employed to evaluate the masses and leptonic decay widths of Charmonium and Upsilon states. An attempt has been made to develop a…
The ground-state positive-parity charmonia $\chi_{c0}(1P)$, $\chi_{c1}(1P)$, $h_c(1P)$, and $\chi_{c2}(1P)$ are generally well described in static (``quenched'') quark models, in which dynamical effects of actual or virtual strong decay are…
