$B^0$--$\bar B^0$ Entanglement offers a conceptual alternative to the single charged B-decay asymmetry for the measurement of the direct CP violating $\gamma/\phi_3$ phase. With $f=J/\Psi K_L,J/\Psi K_S$ and $g=(\pi\pi)^0,(\rho_L\rho_L)^0$…
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…
It is shown that inclusion of charming penguins of the size suggested by short-distance dynamics may shift down by $10^o-15^o$ the value of $\gamma $ extracted via the overall fit to the $B \to PP $ branching ratios. A substantial…
We show that ratios of tree and penguin amplitudes in B-> K*pi and B->rho K are two to three times larger than in B-> K pi. This allows for considerably larger CP asymmetries in the former processes than the 10% asymmetry measured in B0 ->…
Recent rare $B \to PP$, $PV$ decay data suggest that factorization holds well if, contrary to current fits, one has $\cos\gamma < 0$ where $\gamma \equiv {\rm arg}(V_{ub}^*)$. We update previous results with light cone sum rule form…
We investigate the possibility of observing the direct CP violation in the decay modes $B^- \to D^0 D_s^-$ and $D^0 D^-$ within the Standard Model. Including the contributions arising from the tree, annihilation, QCD as well as electroweak…
We evaluate the decays B => K* pi, K (rho,omega,phi) adding the long distance charming penguin contributions to the short distance: Tree+Penguin amplitudes. We estimate the imaginary part of the charming penguin by an effective field theory…
Penguin contributions, being not negligible in general, can hide the information on the CKM angle alpha coming from the measurement of the time-dependent B0(t) -> pi+pi- CP-asymmetry. Nevertheless, we show that this information can be…
An increasing number of experimental measurements from the BESIII, Belle, and Belle-II collaborations encourage investigations into charmed baryon two-body decay processes. By including contributions from the penguin diagrams that are…
We investigate allowed regions in observable space of B --> pi K, B_d --> pi^+pi^- and B_s --> K^+K^- decays, characterizing these modes in the Standard Model. After a discussion of a new kind of contour plots for the $B\to\pi K$ system, we…
The success of QCD factorization(QCDF) in predicting branching ratios for charmless $B$ decays to light pseudoscalar and vector mesons and the small CP asymmetries measured at $BABAR$, Belle and LHCb show that the phase in these decays, as…
We investigate to what extent the recently measured value for a non-vanishing direct CP asymmetry in D0 -> K+ K- and D0 -> pi+ pi- decays can be accommodated in the Standard Model (SM) or extensions with a constrained flavour sector, for…
We present a general parametrization of $B^\pm\to\pi^\pm K, \pi^0K^\pm$ and $B_d\to\pi^0 K, \pi^\mp K^\pm$ decays, taking into account both electroweak penguin and rescattering effects. This formalism allows -- among other things -- an…
We study charmless two-body baryonic B decays in a diagramatic approach. Relations on decay amplitudes are obtained. In general there are more than one tree and more than one penguin amplitudes. The number of independent amplitudes can be…
We perform a comprehensive SU(3)-flavor analysis of charmed mesons decaying to two pseudoscalar SU(3)-octet mesons. Taking into account SU(3)-breaking effects induced by the splitting of the quark masses, m_s != m_{u,d}, we find that…
We study the rates and direct CP violations of two-body baryonic $\bar B_{u,d,s}\to {{\rm\bf B}\overline{\rm\bf B}}'$ and $B^-_c\to{{\rm\bf B}\overline{\rm\bf B}}'$ decays, where the final state baryons include low-lying octet and decuplet…
It is well known that one can use B -> pi pi decays to probe the CP-violating phase \alpha. In this paper we show that these same decays can be used to search for new physics. This is done by comparing two weak phases which are equal in the…
I summarize results and performance of the dynamical theory of charmless hadronic B decays, based on QCD factorization in the heavy quark limit. On the theoretical side, a number of NNLO (alpha_s^2) amplitudes are now available, all showing…
We consider the problem of factorization in B decays and illustrate the calculation of nonfactorizable contributions employing the QCD light-cone sum rule method. We present a more detailed calculation of the ``charming penguin''…
Time-dependence in $B^0(t) \to \pi^+ \pi^-$ and $\ob(t) \to \pi^+ \pi^-$ is utilized to obtain a maximal set of information on strong and weak phases. One can thereby check theoretical predictions of a small strong phase $\delta$ between…
