We have measured the branching fraction of the inclusive radiative B meson decay B --> X(s) gamma to be Br(B->X(s)gamma)=(3.36 +/- 0.53(stat) +/- 0.42(sys) +0.50-0.54(th)) x 10^{-4}. The result is based on a sample of 6.07 x 10^6 BBbar…

The study on the charmed scalar meson spectroscopy has become a hot topic both experimentally and theoretically. The $B_{(s)}$ decays provide an ideal place to study their property. We employ the $B$-meson light-cone sum rules to compute…

In a sample of 58 million $J/\psi$ events collected with the BES II detector, the process J/$\psi\to\gamma\eta_c$ is observed in five decay channels: $\eta_c \to K^+K^-\pi^+\pi^-$, $\pi^+\pi^-\pi^+\pi^-$, $K^\pm K^0_S \pi^\mp$ (with…

We study semileptonic decays $B^\pm \to \eta^{(\prime)} l \nu$, which are suggested to be used to extract the hadronic form factors of $B$ meson decays to $\eta(\eta^{\prime})$ and the angle of $\eta-\eta^{\prime}$ mixing. This would be of…

We study two-body $B_{(c)}\to M_c(\pi,K)$ and semileptonic $B_{c}\to M_c\ell^-\bar \nu_\ell$ decays with $M_c=(J/\psi,X_c^0)$, where $X_c^0\equiv X^0(3872)$ is regarded as the tetraquark state of $c\bar cu\bar u(d\bar d)$. With the decay…

Charmless semileptonic decays, ${\bar{B}} \to X_u \ell \bar{\nu}$, are studied in a sample of 232 million $B\bar{B}$ decays recorded with the BaBar detector, in events where the decay of the second $B$ meson is fully reconstructed.…
