We present final measurements of thirteen charmless hadronic B decay modes from the CLEO experiment. The decay modes include the ten pipi, Kpi, and KKbar final states and new limits on dibaryonic final states, ppbar, pLambdabar, and…
We discuss prospects for detecting the two charm-related phenomena of $D^0$-${\bar D}^0$ mixing and weak radiative decays of $D$ mesons ({\it e.g.} $D\to K^* + \gamma$). A general update of particle-antiparticle mixing for the pseudoscalar…
We developed the new parton model approach for exclusive semileptonic decays of $B$-meson to $D,~D^*$ by extending the inclusive parton model, and by combining with the results of the HQET, motivated by Drell-Yan process. Without the…
The detection of radially excited heavy meson \\states in recent years and measurement of heavy meson decays, particularly $B_c^+\to J/\psi D_s^+$ and $B_c^+\to J/\psi D_s^{*+}$, by the LHCb and ATLAS Collaborations, have aroused a lot of…
We study a new set of duality relations between weighted, combinatoric invariants of a graph $G$. The dualities arise from a non-linear transform $\mathfrak{B}$, acting on the weight function $p$. We define $\mathfrak{B}$ on a space of…
We study the electromagnetic form factors of the doubly charmed baryons, using covariant chiral perturbation theory within the extended on-mass-shell (EOMS) scheme. Vector-meson contributions are also taken into account. We present results…
Semileptonic and nonleptonic decays of the B_c meson to charmonium and D mesons are studied in the framework of the relativistic quark model. The decay form factors are explicitly expressed through the overlap integrals of the meson wave…
Using methods of effective field theory, factorized expressions for arbitrary B -> X_u l nu decay distributions in the shape-function region of large hadronic energy and moderate hadronic invariant mass are derived. Large logarithms are…
It is experimentally observed that ratios of branching fractions for semitauonic and semileptonic $B$ decays, known as the $R(D^{(*)})$, are higher than Standard Model (SM) predictions. The $B \to \bar{D}^{(*)} \tau^{+} \nu_{\tau}$ decays,…
In this work we have studied hadronic charmless two-body B decays involving p-wave mesons in final state. We have calculated branching ratios of $B\to AT$ decays (where $A$ and $T$ denotes a $^3P_1$ axial-vector and a tensor meson,…
We study two-body weak decays of charmed baryons \Lambda_c and \Xi_c into an octet or decuplet baryon and a pseudoscalar meson employing the SU(3) flavor symmetry. Using certain measured Cabibbo-favored modes, we fix the reduced amplitudes…
Rare $B$-meson decays mediated by $b\to s\ell\ell$ transitions constitute sensitive probes of physics beyond the Standard Model, and have triggered considerable interest due to hints for deviations from the Standard-Model prediction. To…
We study the O(Lambda/mb) corrections to the singly and doubly differential hadronic invariant mass spectra d\Gamma/dsH and d\Gamma/dsH dq^2 in b -> u decays, and discuss the implications for the extraction of the CKM matrix element |Vub|.…
Long-distance contributions to the $D^0$-$\bar D^0$ mixing parameters $x$ and $y$ are evaluated using latest data on hadronic $D^0$ decays. In particular, we take on two-body $D \to PP$ and $VP$ decays to evaluate the contributions of…
After the discovery of the double-charm baryon $\Xi_{cc}^{++}$ by LHCb, one of the most important topics is to search for the bottom-charm baryons which contain a $b$ quark, a $c$ quark and a light quark. In this work, we study the two-body…
The weak decays of a spin-$1/2$ doubly charm baryon (${\cal B}_{cc}$) to a spin-$1/2$ singly charm baryon (${\cal B}_c$) and a light vector meson ($V$) are studied under a phenomenological scheme. The contributions are classified into…
We present the results of a study of the semileptonic decays of the $B_c$-meson and the lowest lying doubly heavy baryons using the relativistic quark model. We do not employ a heavy quark mass expansion but keep the masses of the heavy…
Angular distributions of a B meson decaying into two vector mesons are discussed with emphasis on time evolution effects on the complete set of amplitude bilinears. Time integrated quantities are suggested to observe substantial CP…
A general parametrization of the amplitudes for the rare two-body decays B -> pi K is introduced, which makes maximal use of theoretical constraints arising from flavour symmetries of the strong interactions and the structure of the…
We investigate the ten independent local form-factors relevant to the $b$-baryon decay $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda \ell^+\ell^-$, combining information of lattice QCD and dispersive bounds. We propose a novel parametrization of the form factors…
