Inspired by the recent LHCb measurements and forthcoming great potential on $B_{c}$ meson, we study the exclusive $B_{c}$ ${\to}$ $B_{q}P$, $B_{q}V$ decays with the perturbative QCD approach, where $q$ $=$ $u$, $d$, $s$; $P$ and $V$ denote…

The axial-vector mesons $f_1(1285)$ and $f_1(1420)$ are particularly viewed as the mixtures of flavor states $f_n$ and $f_s$ with mixing angle $\varphi$. In order to determine this angle, we study the $B_{d,s}^0\to J/\psi f_1(1285,1420)$…

Using a sample of 3.7 x 10^{6} Y(4S) --> B-anti-B events collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II storage ring, we search for the electroweak penguin decays B^+ --> K^+e^+e^-, B^+ --> K^+mu^+mu^-, B^0 --> K^{*0)e^+e^-, and B^0 -->…

We present preliminary measurements of branching fractions of the b -> s\bar{s}s penguin-dominated decays B+ -> phi K+ and B0 -> phi K0 in a sample of approximately 89 million BBbar pairs collected by the BaBar detector at the PEP-II…

An analysis of $B \to K\pi$ decays is given, assuming a small elastic $\pi K $ rescattering phase difference.Using factorization model only for the tree-level and electroweak penguin amplitudes, we show that the strong penguin amplitude,…

We present strategies for determining electroweak penguins from experimental data. Using the CKM-angle $\gamma$ as one of our central inputs and making some reasonable approximations, we show that the $\bar b\to\bar s$ electroweak penguin…

We analyze the impact of the CP-violating observables in the $B_d\to \rho^{\pm} \pi^{\mp}$ system, combined with the precise measurement of $\sin2\beta$, in the extraction of the CKM matrix. We explore two strategies for determining the…

Using the factorization approach and considering the contributions of the current-current, QCD penguin and electroweak penguin operators at the leading approximation, the decay amplitudes and decay widths of $B_q\to D_q(D_q^*) P$ and…

Motivated by recent CLEO measurements of $B\to\pi K$ modes, we investigate their implications for the CKM angle $\gamma$ and a consistent description of these decays within the Standard Model. Interestingly it turns out that already the…

Long-distance contributions of operators of the effective non-leptonic weak Hamiltonian containing charmed currents have been recently studied. Penguin-like contractions of these operators, denoted as charming penguins, have been shown to…

In the light of new experimental results on B -> K pi decays, we critically study the decay processes B -> K pi in a phenomenological way. Using the quark diagram approach and the currently available data, we determine the allowed values of…

We discuss a possibility of large electroweak(EW) penguin contribution in B-->K pi and pi pi. The recent experimental data may be still suggesting that there are some discrepancies between the data and theoretical estimations. In B --> K pi…

We review recent developments in the perturbative QCD approach to exclusive hadronic B meson decays. We discuss the important next-to-leading-order corrections to B -> pi K, pi pi, and the penguin-dominated B -> PV modes, where P (V) is a…

Weak radiative baryonic B decays $B\to\B_1\ov \B_2\gamma$ mediated by the electromagnetic penguin process $b\to s\gamma$ have appreciable rates larger than their two-body counterparts $B\to\B_1\ov \B_2$. The branching ratios for…

The 2.5 sigma discrepancy between theory and experiment observed in the difference A_CP(B^- --> pi^0 K^-)-A_CP(Bbar^0 --> pi^+ K^-) can be explained by a new electroweak penguin amplitude. Motivated by this result, we analyse the purely…

The decays $B_d\to \pi^+ \pi^-$ and $B_s\to K^+ K^-$ are related to each other by interchanging all down and strange quarks, i.e. through the $U$-spin flavour symmetry of strong interactions. A completely general parametrization of the…

The question of the relative size of two independent penguin amplitudes is studied using the data on the B^+ to pi^+ K^*0, and B^+ to K^+ \bar{K}^*0 decays. Our discussion involves a Regge-phenomenology-based estimate of SU(3) breaking in…

We discuss a simple approach to measure the weak mixing angles phi_s and phi_d of the Bs and Bd systems in the presence of New Physics. We present a new expression that allows one to measure directly the New Physics mixing angles if New…

We present the studies of the decays $B\to a_1(1260) \pi$ and $a_1(1260) K$ within the framework of QCD factorization. Due to the G-parity, unlike the vector meson, the chiral-odd two-parton light-cone distribution amplitudes of the $a_1$…

Within the framework of QCD factorization (QCDF), power corrections due to penguin annihilation can account for theobserved rates of penguin-dominated two-body decays of $B$ mesons and direct CP asymmetries $A_{CP}(K^-\pi^+)$,…
