Nonleptonic $B_c$ decays to $P$-wave charmonia and light $\pi^+$, $K^+$, and $\rho^+$, $K^{*+}$ mesons are analysed using factorization. The hadronic form factors parametrizing the $B_c \to \chi_{cJ}(h_c)$ matrix elements are expressed in…
Inspired by recent improved measurements of charm semileptonic decays at BESIII, we study a large set of $D(D_s)$-meson semileptonic decays where the hadron in the final state is one of $D^0$, $\rho$, $\omega$, $\eta^{(\prime)}$ in the case…
We study factorizable contributions to two-body nonleptonic decays of $B$ mesons using the light-cone sum rule method. By constructing three-point correlation functions and incorporating light-cone distribution amplitudes, we compute the…
We estimate the non-leptonic B decays $B \rightarrow (\psi ,\psi^\prime , \chi_{1c})+K^i$, where $K^i$ are various K-meson resonances. We use the model of Isgur, Wise, Scora and Grinstein in the context of heavy quark effective theory, to…
Based on SU(3) flavor symmetry, many of the quark-graph amplitudes in two-body nonleptonic decays of charmed mesons can be extracted from experiment, which enable us to see the relevance and importance of weak annihilation topologies and to…
It is pointed out that decays of the type $B \to D \bar{D}$ have no factorizable contributions, unless at least one of the charmed mesons in the final state is a vector meson. The dominant contributions to the decay amplitudes arise from…
The two-body hadronic decays of B mesons into pseudoscalar and axial vector mesons are studied within the framework of QCD factorization. The light-cone distribution amplitudes (LCDAs) for $^3P_1$ and $^1P_1$ axial-vector mesons have been…
We present a study of various $B_{s}$ meson decays, including hadronic and semileptonic final states with different spins and diagram topologies. The covariant confined quark model is employed to describe hadronic effects, and our analysis…
The point-form version of the Bakamjian-Thomas construction is applied to the description of several semileptonic decays of mesons. Weak form factors are extracted without ambiguity for pseudoscalar-to-pseudoscalar as well as for…
We assume universal values for the color-singlet ($\epsilon_1$) and color octet ($\epsilon_8$) nonfactorization parameters in B Decays. Two sets of color-favored processes and one set of color-suppressed processes were used to give…
The two-body mesonic $B$ decays induced only via a single $W$-exchange or annihilation quark diagram, such as $B^-_u\rightarrow D^{(*)-}_sK^{(*)0}$ and $\bar{B}^0_d\rightarrow D^{(*)+}_sK^{(*)-}$, are analyzed in the factorization…
The various decay modes of the type $B \to \gamma D^* $ are dynamically different. In general there are factorizable contributions, and there are pole diagrams and pseudoscalar exchange contributions at meson level. The purpose of this…
Based on 2.92 fb$^{-1}$ data taken at the center-of-mass energy $\sqrt s=3.773$ GeV with the BESIII detector, we report recent results on the decay constant $f_{D^+}$, the hadronic form factors, as well as the quark mixing matrix elements…
We study the hadronic D meson decays into a pseudoscalar meson $P$ and an even-parity meson $M$, where $M$ represents a scalar meson $S$, an axial-vector meson $A$, or a tensor meson $T$. These decays are first analyzed in the…
We discuss nonfactorizable $1/N_c$ contributions in the amplitudes of non-leptonic exclusive decays of the type $B\rightarrow D\pi$ ($N_c$ is the number of colors). In a certain kinematical limit rather reliable estimates are possible. It…
We present a unified analysis of $\overline{B}^0 \to D^{(*)+}\ell^-\bar{\nu}_\ell$ and $\overline{B}^0 \to D^{(*)+}\pi^-$ decays using the perturbative QCD (PQCD) approach. The $B \to D^{(*)}$ transition form factors are calculated at low…
The two body charmless decays of $B_s$ meson to light vector mesons are analyzed within the framework of QCD factorization. This approach implies that the nonfactorizable corrections to different helicity amplitudes are not the same. The…
A relativistic quark model is applied to the description of semileptonic and non-leptonic charmed decays of the B-meson. The exclusive semileptonic modes B -> D l \nu and B -> D* l \nu are described through the universal Isgur-Wise form…
The form factors of the weak $B_s$ transitions to the ground state and orbitally excited strange mesons are calculated in the framework of the QCD-motivated relativistic quark model based on the quasipotential approach. These form factors…
We discuss the possibility to measure in present experiments, especially LHCb, the non leptonic decay branching ratio $B \to D' \pi$, and emphasize phenomenological implications on $B \to D' l \nu$ semileptonic decay. We have estimated by…
