The size of the direct CP asymmetry generated during the weak decay of hadrons is attributed to the weak phase and some strong phases. The weak phase comes from the CKM matrix and a strong phase may result from the resonance effect which is…
Strong decays of the charmonium-like state $Y(4320)$ have been studied in the framework of the covariant confined quark model. The resonance $Y$ has been interpreted as a four-quark state of the molecular type. We evaluate the hidden-charm…
An interesting controversy has emerged challenging the widely accepted nature of the $X(3915)$ and the $X(3930)$ resonances, which had initially been assigned to the $\chi_{c0}(2P)$ and $\chi_{c2}(2P)$ $c\bar c$ states, respectively. To…
The magnetic moments, transition magnetic moments and the radiative decay widths of singly charmed baryons are calculated with $ {J^P = \frac{1}{2}}^+$ and $ {J^P = \frac{3}{2}}^+$ in the constitute quark model. Further, the strong decay…
Cross sections, beam asymmetries, and recoil polarisations for the reactions gamma p to K^+ Lambda ; gamma to K^+ Sigma^0, and gamma p to K^0 Sigma^+ have been measured by the SAPHIR, CLAS, and LEPS collaborations with high statistics and…
Results are reported based on samples of 58 million $J/\psi$ and 14 million $\psi(2S)$ decays obtained by the BESII experiment. Improved branching fraction measurements are determined, including branching fractions for…
The structure of the Roper resonance as a hybrid baryon is investigated through studying the transitional amplitudes in J/psi-> p\barN*, N*\barN* decays. We begin with perturbative QCD to describe the dynamical process for the J/psi-> 3\bar…
The electromagnetic transitions between ($J^{P}={3/2}^{+}$) and ($J^{P}={1/2}^{+}$) baryons are important decay modes to observe new hadronic states experimentally. For the estimation of these transitions widths, we employ a…
In this work, we investigate the form factors of $B_c$ decays into $J/\Psi, \psi(2S,3S)$, $\eta_c, \eta_c(2S,3S), \chi_{c0}, \chi_{c1}, h_c$ and $X(3872)$ mesons in the covariant light-front quark model (CLFQM). For the purpose of the…
The in-medium masses of the lowest S-wave charmonium states (vector meson, $J/\psi$ and pseudoscalar meson, $\eta_c$) and P-wave charmonium states (scalar, $\chi_{c0}$ and axialvector $\chi_{c1}$) are investigated in magnetized nuclear…
Based on a sample of $(10087\pm44)\times10^6$ $J/\psi$ events collected at the center-of-mass energy $\sqrt{s}$ = 3.0969 GeV with the BESIII detector, we search for the charmonium rare weak decay $J/\psi\to\bar{D}^0\bar{K}^{*0}+{\rm c.c.}$.…
Systematic analysis of the high recoil decay channels of the B-meson, two body mesonic decay channels in particular. For decays involving D-mesons, all experimentally observed rates are in reasonable accord with our calculations. Noticeable…
A sample of 3.79 million psi(2S) decays observed in the BES detector is used to study the decays of charmonium to axialvector plus pseudoscalar mesons. The branching fraction for psi(2S) to b1pi agrees with expectations. A contrasting…
We show that the presence of intrinsic charm in the hadrons' light-cone wave functions, even at a few percent level, provides new, competitive decay mechanisms for B decays which are nominally CKM-suppressed. For example, the weak decays of…
The nonleptonic decays of \Lambda_{b} that are dominated by W exchange are studied. In particular, the decay modes \varLambda_{b}\to\varDelta^{0}D^{0},\varDelta^{-}D^{+},\Sigma^{*-}D_{s}^{+},…
The study of electron-positron collisions at center-of-mass energies corresponding to charmonium production has reached new levels of sensitivity thanks to experiments by the BES and CLEO Collaborations. Final states $\gamma P$, where $P$…
The rare decay $\bar B_d^0\to J/\psi \phi$ can proceed in four distinct mechanisms: (i) production of the $\phi$ via tri-gluon fusion, (ii) photoproduction of the $J/\psi$ or $\phi$, (iii) final-state rescattering of $D_s^{(*)}D_s^{(*)}$…
In view of important implications in the B decay, the 0-0- decay modes of J/psi are analyzed with broken flavor SU(3) symmetry in search for long-distance final-state interactions. If we impose one mild theoretical constraint on the…
