The B^0_s -> K^+K^- decay is the U-spin partner of B^0_d -> pi^+\pi^- and allows a determination of the angle gamma of the unitarity triangle of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix. Using updated information on the branching ratio and the…
We re-examine the time-dependent rates of $\bs(t) \to K^+ K^-$ and $\obs(t) \to K^+ K^-$, including a lifetime difference between neutral $\bs$ mass eigenstates. The two rates, normalized by the rate of $\bs \to \ko \ok$, are used to obtain…
The splittings between the spin 1/2 and spin 3/2 iso-singlet baryons Lambda_s(1405) and Lambda_s(1520), and their charmed counterparts Lambda_c(2593) and Lambda_c(2625), have been a theoretical conundrum. Here we investigate the possibility…
We study flavor violation in the quark sector in a purely 4D, two-site effective field theory description of the Standard Model and just their first Kaluza-Klein excitations from a warped extra dimension. The warped 5D framework can provide…
We investigate lepton flavor violation in the context of intersecting D-brane models. We point out that these models have a source to generate flavor violation in the trilinear scalar couplings while the geometry of the construction leads…
We present measurements of branching fractions and CP asymmetries of several B- -> D(*)0 K(*)- decays, with the D(*)0 decaying to CP-even, CP-odd, and flavor eigenstates, that can constrain the CP angle gamma as well as the amplitude ratio…
The interpretation of the recent observation by LHCb of a heavy-flavor-conserving and strangeness-changing decay $\Xi_b^- \to \Lambda_b \pi^-$ in terms of the branching fraction for the decay suffers from the uncertainty in the yield of the…
We perform a global fits to charmless $B \to PP$ decays which independently constrain the $(\bar\rho,\bar\eta)$ vertex of the unitarity triangle. The fitted amplitudes and phase are used to predict the branching ratios and CP asymmetries of…
Using the known experimental data for the hyperon semileptonic decay constants, we calculate integrated quark densities $\Delta q_\Lambda$ and $% \Delta \Sigma_\Lambda$ for the hyperon $\Lambda$ with flavor SU(3) symmetry breaking taken…
We analyze the potential of rare charm decays as probes of new physics at a high-luminosity flavor facility operating at the $Z$ pole, such as the FCC-ee or CEPC. In particular, we identify clean null-test observables in $D^0 \to \pi^+…
The current status of some methods to determine the weak phase $\gamma$ of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix element $V^*_{ub}$ using B decays is discussed, and comments are made on accuracy achievable in the next few years.
We construct a supersymmetric theory of flavor based on the discrete gauge group (D_6)^2, where D_6 describes the symmetry of a regular hexagon under proper rotations in three dimensions. The representation structure of the group allows one…
The decays $\Lambda_b^0 \to \Lambda_c^+\bar{D}^{(*)0}K^-$ and $\Lambda_b^0 \to \Lambda_c^+ D_s^{*-}$ are observed for the first time, in proton-proton collision data at $\sqrt{s}=13$TeV corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.4…
We re-analyze the flavor decomposition of the pion-nucleon $\sigma$-term in the framework of baryon chiral perturbation to fourth order. We employ a covariant and the heavy baryon framework including also the low-lying decuplet. Using only…
We propose a new method to extract a CP angle $\gamma$ from semi-inclusive two-body nonleptonic decays, b ---> D^0(\bar{D}^0) s and b ---> D_{CP} s. This method is free from the unknown long distance strong interaction effects and gives…
The b -> ssdbar and b -> ddsbar decays are highly suppressed in the SM, and are thus good probes of new physics (NP) effects. We discuss in detail the structure of the relevant SM effective Hamiltonian pointing out the presence of nonlocal…
Longitudinal polarization of Lambda produced in $e^+e^-$ annihilation at LEP energies is calculated in a picture for the spin content of Lambda which is consistent with the polarized deep inelastic lepton-nucleon scattering data and SU(3)…
We examine in detail the semi-leptonic decay $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda_c \tau{\bar \nu}_{\tau}$, which may confirm previous hints, from the analogous $B$ decay, of a new physics beyond the standard model. First of all, starting from rather…
The quark flavor and spin distributions in octet baryons are calculated both in the SU(6) quark spectator diquark model and in a perturbative QCD (pQCD) based model. It is shown that the $\Lambda$ has the most significant difference in…
The strong and radiative decay properties of the low-lying $\Omega_c$ states are studied in a constituent quark model. We find that the newly observed $\Omega_c$ states by the LHCb Collaboration can fit in well the decay patterns. Thus,…
