We have analyzed the $D\rightarrow \pi K, KK$ decay with the naive factorization (NF), QCD factorization (QCDF)and QCD factorization including soft-gluon exchanges (QCDF+SGE). In these decay channels, the soft-gluon effects are firstly…
We present a lattice QCD calculation of form factors for the decay $\Lambda_b \to p \mu^- \bar{\nu}$, which is a promising channel for determining the CKM matrix element $|V_{ub}|$ at the Large Hadron Collider. In this initial study we work…
The two body charmless decays of $B_s$ meson to light vector mesons are analyzed within the framework of QCD factorization. This approach implies that the nonfactorizable corrections to different helicity amplitudes are not the same. The…
Weak radiative decays of the B mesons belong to the most important flavor changing processes that provide constraints on physics at the TeV scale. In the derivation of such constraints, accurate standard model predictions for the inclusive…
In this article, we calculate the $B\to a_1(1260)$ form-factors $V_1(q^2)$, $V_2(q^2)$, $V_3(q^2)$ and $A(q^2)$ with the $B$-meson light-cone QCD sum rules. Those form-factors are basic parameters in studying the exclusive non-leptonic…
QCD sum rules are used to estimate the flavour SU(3)-symmetry violation in two-body B decays to pions and kaons. In the factorizable amplitudes the SU(3)-violation manifests itself in the ratio of the decay constants f_K/f_pi and in the…
Based on a new, exact QCD factorization formula for the partial B->X_s+gamma decay rate with a restriction on large photon energy, improved predictions are presented for the partial moments <E_gamma> and <E_gamma^2>-<E_gamma>^2 of the…
We compute the amplitudes for the two-body decay of $B$ mesons into longitudinally polarized light vector mesons at next-to-leading order in QCD. We give the explicit expressions in QCD factorization for all 34 transitions of a heavy-light…
We predict contributions of higher $K$-resonances to the radiative rare decays $b\to s\gamma$, in the framework of the QCD sum rules on the light cone, which combines the traditional QCD sum rule method with the description of final state…
The nonleptonic two body $B_{u,d,s,c}$ decays involving a light tensor meson in final states are studied in the perturbative QCD approach based on $k_T$ factorization. The decay modes with a tensor meson emitted, are prohibited in naive…
Motivated by recent CELO measurements and the progress of the theory of B decays, we investigate $B\to P V(P=\pi,K. V= K^{*},\rho,\omega)$ decay modes in the framework of QCD improved factorization. We find that all the measured branching…
Inspired by the recent LHCb measurements and forthcoming great potential on $B_{c}$ meson, we study the exclusive $B_{c}$ ${\to}$ $B_{q}P$, $B_{q}V$ decays with the perturbative QCD approach, where $q$ $=$ $u$, $d$, $s$; $P$ and $V$ denote…
We predict contributions of higher $K$-resonances to the radiative rare decays $b\to s\gamma$, in the framework of the QCD sum rules on the light cone (LCSR). Our calculations are restricted to the leading twist-two operators for $K^*(892)$…
We have performed a numerical analysis of branching ratios and direct CP-asymmetries of B meson decays to two light pseudoscalar nonets with deltaS=1 using QCD improved factorization. The parameters related to B meson including its…
We study the radiative leptonic $B_c\to \gamma\ell\bar\nu$ decays in the nonrelativistic QCD effective field theory, and consider a fast-moving photon. As a result the interactions with the heavy quarks can be integrated out, and thus we…
I consider nonleptonic decays of B mesons into two light mesons using the light-cone wave functions for the mesons. In the heavy quark limit, nonfactorizable contributions are calculable from first principles in some decay modes. I review…
The various decay modes of the type $B \to \gamma D^* $ are dynamically different. In general there are factorizable contributions, and there are pole diagrams and pseudoscalar exchange contributions at meson level. The purpose of this…
Several years ago, it was pointed out that the U-spin-related decays $B_d\to\pi^+\pi^-$, $B_s\to K^+K^-$ and $B_d\to\pi^\mp K^\pm$, $B_s\to \pi^\pm K^\mp$ offer interesting strategies for the extraction of the angle gamma of the unitarity…
