Motivated by the powerful capability of measurement for the $b$-flavored hadron rare decays at LHC and SuperKEKB/Belle-II, the nonleptonic $\bar{B}^{\ast}$ ${\to}$ $D\bar{D}^{\ast}$, $D{\rho^-}$, $DK^{\ast-}$, ${\pi}D^{\ast}$ and…

Motivated by systematic observations of $ B_c $ decays at LHCb, we analyze $B_c^+ \to J/\psi (A, T)$ decays (where $A$ denotes axial-vector mesons $a_1(1260)^+$, $b_1(1235)^+$, and $T$ denotes tensor mesons $a_2(1320)^+$, $K_2^*(1430)^+$)…

We present preliminary results for the measurement of the branching fraction of the decay B+- -> chi_c0 K+- from a sample of 75 million BB pairs collected by the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy B Factory at SLAC. The chi_c0…

The first observation of the decay Bs -> D0bar K- {\pi}+ is reported. The analysis is based on a data sample, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb-1 of pp collisions, collected with the LHCb detector. The branching fraction…

Though QCD Factorization(QCDF) could produce sufficiently large $B\to K\pi$ branching ratios close to experiments, the predicted direct CP asymmetry in ${\bar B}^{0}\to K^{+}\pi^{-}$ decay is however still quite below experiment, even with…

We investigate the CP-averaged branching ratios, the polarization fractions, the relative phases, and the CP-violating asymmetries of the penguin-dominated $B \to \phi K_1(1270) $ and $ \phi K_1(1400)$ decays in the perturbative QCD(pQCD)…

Using the most general, model independent effective Hamiltonian, the branching ratio of the (B -> K^* l^+ l^-) decay, when K^* meson is longitudinally or transversally polarized, is presented. The dependence of the branching ratio on the…

The branching fraction of the $B_s\to K^0\bar K^0$ decay has been recently measured by the LHCb and Belle experiments. We study the consistency of the measured value with three relations to other decay rates and CP asymmetries which follow…

The CLEO collaboration has recently reported a (first) measurement of $BR (B \to \pi^+ \pi^-) = (4.7^{+1.8}_{-1.5} \pm 0.6) \times 10^{-6}$. We study, using recent results on QCD improved factorization, the implications of this measurement…

We report measurements of the branching fractions of neutral and charged B meson decays to final states containing a K_1(1270) or K_1(1400) meson and a charged pion. The data, collected with the BaBar detector at the SLAC National…

Using the factorization approach, we investigate the $\overline B^0 \to \overline K^0K^+\pi^-$ and $\overline B^0 \to K^0K^-\pi^+$ decays individually including the resonant and nonresonant contributions. Under the flavor SU(3) symmetry, we…

We calculate the CP-averaged branching ratios and CP-violating asymmetries of a number of two-body charmless hadronic decays $\bar{B_s^0} \to PP, PV, VV$ in the perturbative QCD (pQCD) approach to leading order in $\alpha_s$ (here $P$ and…

A measurement of the branching fraction of the decay $B_s^0 \to K_S^0 K_S^0$ is performed using proton-proton collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5 $fb^{-1}$ collected by the LHCb experiment between 2011 and 2016.…

We explore the decays of $B\to V_1V_2$ ($V_{1,2}= (\rho, \omega,K^*, \phi)$ and $B= (B^0, B^+,B_s)$) with transverse polarizations. We explicitly evaluate the eigenstates of T-odd scalar operators involving spins for the first time, which…

The $\bar{B}_{q}^{\ast}$ ${\to}$ $DP$, $DV$ weak decays are studied with the perturbative QCD approach, where $q$ $=$ $u$, $d$ and $s$; $P$ and $V$ denote the ground $SU(3)$ pseudoscalar and vector meson nonet. It is found that the…

Recently Belle has established the 90% confidence level (CL) upper limit $\b < 9.4 \times 10^{-7}$ for the branching ratio for $B^0\to J/\psi \phi$, a process expected to be suppressed by the Okubo-Zweig-Iizuka (OZI) rule disfavoring…

The rare decays $B^+ \to D_s^{+} \phi$, $B^0 \to D_s^{(*)-} K^+$ and $B^+ \to D_s^{(*)+} \bar{K}^0$ can occur only via annihilation type diagrams in the standard model. We calculate these decays in perturbative QCD approach. We found that…
