A fit of amplitudes to the experimental branching ratios to two mesons is used to construct a new estimate of neutral $D$ mixing which includes $SU(3)$ breaking. The result is dominated by the experimental uncertainties. This suggests that…
We construct a chiral Lagrangian for doubly heavy baryons and heavy mesons that is invariant under heavy quark-diquark symmetry at leading order and includes the leading O(1/m_Q) symmetry violating operators. The theory is used to predict…
Being the fountainhead of transverse distortion and asymmetries in accordance to $``SSA=GPD \ast FSI\,"$, we study the spin flip generalized parton distribution. We demonstrate this transverse deformation by using the quark-scalar diquark…
We calculate masses of light and heavy mesons as well as baryons of negative parity containing $u,d,s,c$ and $b$ quarks. It is an extension of our previous work where we had studied the positive parity baryons. We adopt a quark-diquark…
The contribution of dimension-seven operators to anomalous FCNC-interactions of the t-quarks with a photon and a gluon is considered. The phenomenological Lagrangian and Feynman rules are derived. There are evaluated the expressions for the…
The recent observation of the same-sign dimuon charge asymmetry in the B system by the D0 collaboration has 3.9 sigma deviation from the standard model prediction. However, the recent LHCb data on B-s neutral-meson mixing do not accommodate…
We calculate the effective potentials of the octet baryon and heavy meson systems using the chiral effective field theory up to the next-to-leading order. We consider the contact terms, one-pseudoscalar-meson and two-pseudoscalar-meson…
Coupled-channel final-state-interaction effects for D and B weak decays into \pi \pi and K \bar{K} are discussed in a Regge framework. It is found that the inclusion of coupled-channel effects significantly affects the results obtained…
It is plausible that several of the most profound aspects of low-energy QCD dynamics are connected to diquark correlations, including: paucity of exotics (which is the foundation of the quark model and of traditional nuclear physics),…
Partial wave scattering amplitudes in baryon-baryon and baryon-antibaryon collisions and amplitudes for the production and decay of baryon resonances are constructed in the framework of the spin-momentum operator expansion method. The…
We check a commonly used approximation in which a baryon with a heavy quark is described as a heavy quark-light diquark system. The heavy quark influences the diquark internal motion reducing the average distance between the two light…
It has been proposed that partially quenched chiral perturbation theory can be used together with partially quenched lattice QCD to determine the low-energy constants of real QCD. We point out a complication of this approach and show how it…
Recently, we pointed out that chiral transformation properties of strong penguin operators change in the transition from unquenched to (partially) quenched QCD. As a consequence, new penguin-like operators appear in the (partially) quenched…
We present a complete analysis of the Heavy Quark Effective Theory Lagrangian at order $1/m^2$ in the leading logarithmic approximation, including effects induced by spectator quarks. At this order new correction terms appear in the…
We study higher-order QCD corrections for the production of a top-antitop quark pair ($t{\bar t}$ production) at the Large Hadron Collider in the Standard Model Effective Field Theory. We consider effects of new physics parametrized by the…
We prove a U-spin amplitude triangle relation among doubly Cabibbo-suppressed (DCS) charmed meson decays, $D^0\to K^+\pi^-, D^0 \to K^0\pi^0$ and $D^+_s \to K^0 K^+$, congruent to an isospin relation among corresponding Cabibbo-favored (CF)…
In the context of hard hadronic reactions diquarks are a useful phenomenological device to model non-perturbative effects still observable in the kinematic range accessible by present-day experiments. In the following we present…
The importance of diquarks has been noticed in the context of several elementary particle processes. In recent years the study of diquarks has become of considerable interest in highlighting its role in high density physics from the point…
$T_{cc}^+$ is an isoscalar 4-quark state with mass lying barely below the $D^{*+} D^0$ threshold, and several times further below the $D^{*0} D^+$ threshold. It allows both di-meson molecular and elementary diquark-antidiquark $(cc)(\bar u…
$D-\bar D$ mixing is the source of the largest theoretical uncertainty in the extraction of $\gamma$ from $B\to D K$ decays. In the Standard Model, the mixing can have a rate close to its current experimental upper bound and is…
