In this paper, we examine B -> VT decays (V is a vector and T is a tensor meson), whose final-state particles can have transverse or longitudinal polarization. Measurements have been made of B -> \phi K_2^*, and it is found that fT/fL is…

$B\to\phi K^*$ ($\btos$) is three separate decays, one for each polarization of the final-state vector mesons (one longitudinal, two transverse). It is observed that the fraction of transverse decays, $\fT$, and the fraction of longitudinal…

The decays of $B$ mesons to charmless final states consisting of a vector meson ($V$) and a pseudoscalar meson ($P$) are analyzed within flavor SU(3). Predictions are compared with new data from the CLEO Collaboration. Dominant…

The small longitudinal polarization fractions (50%) of $B \to \phi K^*$ measured by B factories contradict with the naive theoretical counting rules. We review the current theoretical status of the $B\to VV$ decay studies and calculate many…

It has been observed in B->phiK* and B^{0(+)}->rho^{0(+)}K^{*0} that the fraction of transverse decays, fT, and the fraction of longitudinal decays, fL, are roughly equal, in opposition to the naive expectation, fT/fL << 1. If one requires…

Based upon flavor SU(3) symmetry, we perform global fits to charmless B decays into one pseudoscalar meson and one vector meson in the final states. We consider different symmetry breaking schemes and find that the one implied by na{\"i}ve…

Recently BABAR and Belle have measured anomalous large transverse polarizations in some pure penguin $B \to VV$ decays, which might be inconsistent with the Standard Model expectations. We try to explore its implications for R-parity…

I estimate the SU(3) flavour symmetry breaking in the ratio of penguin-to-tree ratios of the decays B_s\to K^+ K^- and B_d\to\pi^+\pi^-, given an assumption on the flavour symmetry breaking of the hadronic input parameters. The decay…

An extensive model-independent analysis of B->DD decays is carried out employing SU(3) flavour symmetry, including symmetry-breaking corrections. Several theoretically clean observables are identified which allow for testing the Standard…

The measurements in $b\to s$ penguin-dominated decays are widely recognized as a powerful test for searching for New Physics by studying the deviation from theoretical estimations within the Standard Model. We examine the final-state…

In this letter, we propose three different strategies to extract the weak mixing angle phi_s of the Bs system using penguin-mediated decays into vectors, mainly Bs->K*K*, Bs->phi K* and Bs->phi phi. We also provide predictions for the…

In the framework of SU(3) symmetry, we present a general analysis of $B$ meson decays into two lighter uncharmed mesons (both pairs of pseudoscalar mesons and pairs of vector and pseudoscalar mesons). From the analysis we find constraints…

The decays of $B$ mesons to a charmless vector ($V$) and pseudoscalar ($P$) meson are analyzed within a framework of flavor SU(3) in which symmetry breaking is taken into account through ratios of decay constants in tree ($T$) amplitudes.…

The first observation of $\bar{B}^0_d\to D^0\bar{K}^0$ and $\bar{B}^0_d\to D^0\bar{K}^{*0}$ transitions by the Belle Collaboration allows us to do a complete isospin analysis of $B\to DK^{(*)}$ decay modes. We find that their respective…

Under flavor $SU(3)$ symmetry (SU(3)$_F$), the final-state particles in $B\to PPP$ decays ($P$ is a pseudoscalar meson) are treated as identical, and the $PPP$ must be in a fully-symmetric (FS) state, a fully-antisymmetric (FA) state, or in…

We present a detailed study of charmless two-body B decays into final states involving two vector mesons (VV) or two axial-vector mesons (AA) or one vector and one axial-vector meson (VA), within the framework of QCD factorization, where…

Global fits to charmless B --> PP decays in the framework of flavor SU(3) symmetry are updated and improved without reference to the \sin2\beta measured from the charmonium decay modes. Fit results directly constrain the (\bar\rho,\bar\eta)…

Current data of charmless B meson decays to two pseudoscalar mesons (PP) and one vector and one pseudoscalar mesons (VP) are analyzed within the framework of flavor SU(3) symmetry, a working principle that we have tested by allowing…

We study a relation between the weak phase $\gamma$ and the rates and CP asymmetries of several $K \pi$ decays of $B^+$, $B^0$, and $B_s$, emphasizing the impact of the latter measurements. Current data indicate large SU(3) breaking in the…

The complex phases $\phi_d$ and $\phi_s$, associated with the mixing between neutral $B_q^0$ and $\bar B_q^0$ mesons ($q\in\{d,s\}$), are key observables to test the Standard Model and search for contributions from new physics. They are…
