Controlling the contributions from doubly Cabibbo-suppressed penguin topologies in the decays $B_d^0\to J/\psi K^0_S$ and $B_s^0\to J/\psi\phi$ is mandatory to reach the highest possible precision in the measurement of the $B^0_q$--$\bar…

We review recent experimental results on hadronic decays and lifetimes of hadrons containing b and c quarks. We discuss charm counting and the semileptonic branching fraction in B decays, the color suppressed amplitude in B decay, and the…
B-meson decays play an important role in flavour physics. The $B \rightarrow \pi K$ decays are dominated by QCD loop diagrams (penguins) but also electroweak penguins, where New Physics may enter, have a significant impact on the decay…
The hypothesis of the smallness of penguin contribution to charmless strangeless $B_d (\bar B_d)$ decays allows to determine with high accuracy the value of angle $\alpha$ from the currently available $B \to \rho\rho$, $B \to \pi\pi$ and…
In this study, we examine the non-leptonic weak decays of doubly charmed baryons, denoted as ${\cal B}_{cc}\to{\cal B}_{c}P$, where ${\cal B}_{cc}$ represents the doubly charmed baryons, specifically…
Strangeness-changing decays of $B$ mesons to three-body final states of pions and kaons are studied, assuming that they are dominated by a $\Delta I=0$ penguin amplitude with flavor structure $\bar b \to \bar s$. Numerous isospin relations…
New physics contributions to B decays often arise through chromo-magnetic penguin operators. To look for new physics effects in B decays, it is useful to be able to estimate the hadronic matrix elements for the chromo-magnetic operator. We…
In the framework of the factorization approach we calculate the branching fractions of 100 two-body nonleptonic decay channels in total, including 44 channels of the charm meson decays and 56 channels of the bottom meson decays. For charm…
Exclusive semileptonic B decays into excited charmed mesons are investigated at order $\Lambda_{QCD}/m_Q$ in the heavy quark effective theory. Differential decay rates for each helicity state of the four lightest excited $D$ mesons ($D_1$,…
I summarize results and performance of the dynamical theory of charmless hadronic B decays, based on QCD factorization in the heavy quark limit. On the theoretical side, a number of NNLO (alpha_s^2) amplitudes are now available, all showing…
Including corrections of order $O(m_{K^*}/m_B)$, we present an analysis of photonic penguin contributions to the decay $B\to K^* \gamma$ in the perturbative QCD framework. Employing several models of the meson wave functions, we demonstrate…
Using the soft-collinear effective theory we derive the factorization theorem for the decays B-> M1 M2 with M{1,2}= pi,K, rho,K*, at leading order in Lambda/E_M and Lambda/mb. The results derived here apply even if alpha_s(E_M Lambda) is…
Charmless hadronic $B$ decays are a good testing ground for the Standard Model (SM) of Particle Physics. The dominant amplitudes are CKM suppressed tree diagrams and/or $ b\to s$ or $b\to d$ loop ("penguin") diagrams. Non-SM particle could…
Charged and neutral B decays into the pi+pi-K, K+K-K and K0S K0S K0S systems have been studied. The pi+pi- and K+K- final state interactions in the S-wave isoscalar state are treated in an unitary way. The long-distance contributions called…
