Based on Brodsky-Lepage approach, the nonleptonic $B$ meson decay branching ratio is derived in terms of three parameters and is geometrically analysed as the 3-surface embedded in the 4-dimensional (abstract) Euclidean space generated by…
We calculate the branching ratio of $B\to J/\Psi\pi^{0}$ with a mixed formalism that combines the QCD-improved factorization and the perturbative QCD approaches. The result is consistent with experimental data. The quite small penguin…
We reanalyze the decay $B_d\to\pi^+\pi^-$ without assuming dominance of QCD penguins with internal top-quark exchanges. In that case the weak phase of the $\bar b \to\bar d$ QCD penguin amplitude is not related in a simple way to the CKM…
We report the first measurement of the branching fraction for the inclusive decay B --> X(s) l+ l-, where l is either an electron or a muon and X(s) is a hadronic recoil system that contains an s-quark. We analyzed a data sample of 65.4 *…
Electromagnetic radiative penguin decays of the B meson were studied with the BaBar detector at SLAC's PEP-II asymmetric-energy B Factory. Branching fractions and isospin asymmetry of the decay B -> K* gamma, branching fractions of B ->…
Within the perturbative QCD (PQCD) framework, we present a systematic investigation of charmless $B_s \to SP$ decays, where $S$ and $P$ denote scalar and pseudoscalar mesons, respectively. By employing two distinct structural scenarios for…
We consider two-loop QCD corrections to the element $\Gamma_{12}^q$ of the decay matrix in $B_q-\bar{B}_q$ mixing, $q=d,s$, in the leading power of the Heavy Quark Expansion. The calculated contributions involve one current-current and one…
A useful inequality is obtained if charmless strange B decays are assumed to be dominated by a $\Delta I = 0$ transition like that from the gluonic penguin diagram and the contributions of all other diagrams including the tree, electroweak…
We compute the master integrals that arise in the calculation of the leading penguin amplitudes in non-leptonic B-decays at two-loop order. The application of differential equations in a canonical basis enables us to give analytic results…
We report a measurement of the inclusive charmless semileptonic branching fraction of B mesons in a sample of 89 million BBbar events recorded with the BABAR detector at the Y(4S) resonance. Events are selected by fully reconstructing the…
This thesis examines the non-leptonic B-decays within QCD factorisation and beyond, to challenge the assumptions and limitations of the method. We analyse the treatment of the distribution amplitudes of light mesons and present a new model…
We calculated the CP averaged branching ratios and CP-violating asymmetries of two-body charmless hadronic Bs->PP,PV decays with the QCDF approach, including the contributions from the chirally enhanced power corrections and weak…
We present the studies of the decays $B\to a_1(1260) \pi$ and $a_1(1260) K$ within the framework of QCD factorization. Due to the G-parity, unlike the vector meson, the chiral-odd two-parton light-cone distribution amplitudes of the $a_1$…
Two-body charmless hadronic B decays involving a light tensor meson in the final states are studied in the perturbative QCD approach based on $k_T$ factorization. From our calculations, we find that the decay branching ratios for color…
The QCD$\times$QED factorization is studied for two-body non-leptonic and semi-leptonic $B$ decays with heavy-light final states. These non-leptonic decays, like $\bar{B}^0_{(s)}\to D^+_{(s)} \pi^-$ and $\bar{B}_d^0 \to D^+ K^-$, are among…
We have computed the branching ratios of the exclusive pseudoscalar (vector) + tensor modes that are allowed in the decays of the B_c meson. The dominant spectator and annihilation contributions in those decays are evaluated using the…
The Belle~II Collaboration presents four new analyses: The measurement of $V_{ub}$ from $B \to \pi e \nu_e$ decays with a fit to the differential $q^2$ spectrum, the determination of $V_{cb}$ using a fit to the differential $w$ distribution…
The problem of hadronic input in charmless nonleptonic B decays is discussed. QCD sum rules and their light-cone versions (LCSR) provide an important part of this input, such as the decay constant $f_B$ and $B\to \pi$ form factor. Employing…
We develop a method to compute inclusive semi-leptonic decay rate of hadrons fully non-perturbatively using lattice QCD simulations. The sum over all possible final states is achieved by a calculation of the forward-scattering matrix…
We study exclusive nonleptonic and semileptonic decays of the Bc-meson within a relativistic constituent quark model previously developed by us. For the nonleptonic decays we use the factorizing approximation. We update our model parameters…
