Exotic resonant structures found in $\Lambda^0_b$ and $\overline{B}^0$ decays into charmonium in the LHCb experiment are discussed. Examination of the $J/\psi p$ system in $\Lambda^0_b\to J/\psi K^- p$ decays shows two states each of which…

Observations of exotic structures in the $J/\psi p$ channel, that we refer to as pentaquark-charmonium states, in $\Lambda_b^0\to J/\psi K^- p$ decays are presented. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 3/fb acquired…

Recently, the LHCb Collaboration have updated their analysis of the resonant $J/\psi p$ mass spectrum in the decay $\Lambda_b^0 \to J/\psi p K^-$. In the combined Run~1 and Run~2 LHCb data, three peaks are observed, with the former…

The discrepancy between theory and data in the momentum distribution of slow J/psi in B decays has been several times addressed as a puzzle. Using the most recent results on exclusive B decays into J/psi and heavy kaons or exotic mesons and…

The baryonic decays of $J/ \psi$ provide a new way to study the internal structure of baryons. A simple diquark model applied to the calculation of the $\bar{B}B$ decay cross-sections is compared with the ordinary constituent quark model.…

We present recent results in semileptonic and non-leptonic exclusive $B_c$ decays to charmonium states both in $S$-wave, $J/\psi$ and $\eta_c$, and in $P$-wave, $\chi_{cJ}$ and $h_c$. The analysis, based on the heavy quark spin symmetry…

Results are reported based on samples of 58 million $\jpsi$ and 14 million $\psip$ decays obtained by the BESII experiment. Improved branching fraction measurements are determined, including branching fractions for $\jpsi\to\ppp$, $\psip\ra…

The status of exclusive two-body and three-body baryonic B decays is reviewed. The threshold enhancement effect in the dibaryon invariant mass and the angular distributions in the dibaryon rest frame are stressed and explained. Weak…

We make a systematic investigation on the two-body nonleptonic decays $B_c\rightarrow J/\Psi(\eta_c),M$ by employing the perturbative QCD approach based on $k_T$ factorization, where $M$ is a light pseudoscalar or vector or a heavy charmed…

We combine the NRQCD formalism for the inclusive color singlet and octet production of charmonium states with the parton and the ACCMM model, respectively, and calculate the momentum distribution in the decay B-->J/psi+X. Neglecting the…

We report on exclusive decays of B mesons into final states containing charmonium using data collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II storage rings. The charmonium states considered here are J/psi, psi(2S), and chi_C1. Branching…

We study the exclusive two-body nonleptonic $B_c\to X_{c\bar{c}}M$ decays, where $X_{c\bar{c}}$ is either a ground(1S) or a radially excited (2S or 3S) charmonium and $M$ is a pseudoscalar $(P)$ or a vector $(V)$ meson. We consider here…

This talk reviews the last applications of the covariant quark model for studying the properties of the multiquark states: B_s-meson (quark-antiquark state), light baryons (three-quark states) and tetraquark (four-quark state). The form…

Within a perturbative approach we investigate decays of charmonium states into baryon-antibaryon pairs. Using a recently proposed wave function for the nucleon and suitable generalizations of it to the hyperons and decouplet baryons, we…

The nonleptonic two-body $\Lambda_b\rightarrow \Lambda\psi $ decays with $\psi=J/\psi$ or $\psi(2S)$ are investigated based on the perturbative QCD approach. These are color-suppressed processes in which the nonfactorizable contributions…

The semileptonic decays of meson $B_c$ to a P-wave charmonium state $\chi_c(^3P_J)$ or $h_c(^1P_1)$ are computed. The results show that the decays are sizable so they are accessible in Tevatron and in LHC, especially, with the detectors…
