Kolya Uraltsev was one of the inventors of the Heavy Quark Expansion (HQE), that describes inclusive weak decays of hadrons containing heavy quarks and in particular lifetimes. Besides giving a pedagogic introduction to the subject, we…
We discuss various topics in the theory of heavy baryon decays. Among these are recent applications of the Relativistic Three Quark Model to semileptonic, nonleptonic, one-pion and one-photon transitions among heavy baryons, new higher…
If, as recently reported by the Super-Kamiokande collaboration, the neutrinos are massive, the heaviest one would not be stable and, though chargeless, could in particular decay into a lighter neutrino and a photon by quantum loop effects.…
In a composite model of leptons and quarks, composite particles with heavy Majorana particles appear provided that the V-rishon is regarded as a Majorana particle. In this paper, the decay mode of such "Majorana partners" is isestigated. It…
We explore the application and usefulness of the heavy quark symmetry to describe the weak decays of hadrons (mesons and baryons) containing two heavy quarks. Firstly, we address the internal dynamics of a heavy-heavy bound system with the…
Baryons with three heavy quarks are the last missing pieces of the lowest-lying baryon multiplets in the quark model after the discovery of doubly heavy baryons. In this work, we study nonleptonic weak decays of triply heavy baryons…
Theoretical estimates for the lifetimes of several isotopes of heavy elements with Z=102-120 are presented by calculating the quantum mechanical tunneling probability in a WKB framework and using microscopic nucleus-nucleus potential…
Rare decays of b hadrons provide a powerful way of identifying contributions from physics beyond the Standard Model, in particular from new hypothetical particles too heavy to be produced at colliders. The most relevant experimental…
We examine Higgs boson production and decay in heavy-ion collisions at the LHC and future colliders. Owing to the long lifetime of the Higgs boson, its hadronic decays may experience little or no screening from the hot and dense quark-gluon…
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…
The latest measurements of the masses and lifetimes of weakly decaying $B$~hadrons from experiments at $e^+e^-$ and $p\bar{p}$ colliders are presented. These measurements include the lifetimes of the $\bar{B}^0$, $\bar{B}^0_s$, $B^-$, and…
I discuss a variety of issues in the physics of excited bottom and charmed hadrons. Recent developments in spectroscopy, strong decays, and production in fragmentation and weak decays are reviewed.
Hidden-heavy hadrons can decay into pairs of heavy hadrons through transitions from confining Born-Oppenheimer potentials to hadron-pair potentials with the same Born-Oppenheimer quantum numbers. The transitions are also constrained by…
In this paper we give a short review of the recently obtained results on inclusive and exclusive decays of doubly heavy baryons.
We review the current status of heavy quark symmetry and its applications to weak decays of hadrons containing a single heavy quark. After an introduction to the underlying physical ideas, we discuss in detail the formalism of the heavy…
Lattice QCD results on hadrons with heavy quarks are briefly reviewed. The focus is on the spectrum of conventional and exotic hadrons. Structure of certain conventional hadrons is addressed as well.
The application of the tensor formalism of the heavy quark effective theory (HQET) at leading order to strong decays of heavy hadrons is presented. Comparisons between experimental and theoretical predictions of ratios of decay rates for B…
For a long time it has been established both experimentally and theoretically that $\Omega_c^0$ is shortest-lived among the four singly charmed baryons which decay weakly. The situation was dramatically changed in 2018 when LHCb reported a…
Purely baryonic weak decays of heavy baryons are investigated within the framework of the Skyrme model. These decays belong to a new class of unobserved decay channels, which would help us to test the standard model, particularly potential…
Estimates of lifetimes and partial branching ratios for the baryons $\Xi_{bc}^{+}$ and $\Xi_{bc}^{0}$ are presented using the inverse heavy quark mass expansion technique carried out in the Operator Product Expansion approach. We take into…
