We suggest a new technique to determine the CKM phase $\gamma$ {\em without} neglecting the (soft) final state rescattering effects. We use (time integrated) $B$ meson decay rates to $\pi$'s and $K$'s. A set of 5 $\Delta S = 0$ (or 1…

The decays $B^\pm\to \pi^\pm K$ and $B_d\to \pi^\mp K^\pm$ were observed by the CLEO collaboration last year; they may play an important role to probe the angle $\gamma$ of the unitarity triangle of the CKM matrix. After a general…

We calculate the tree and penguin amplitudes in the $B^0\to\pi^+\pi^-$ decay channel employing the perturbative QCD factorization approach. Using the amplitudes as input with the theoretical uncertainties sufficiently considered, we…

We reanalyze the decay $B_d\to\pi^+\pi^-$ without assuming dominance of QCD penguins with internal top-quark exchanges. In that case the weak phase of the $\bar b \to\bar d$ QCD penguin amplitude is not related in a simple way to the CKM…

The decay rates for $B^0 \to K^+ \pi^-$, $B^+ \to K^0 \pi^+$, and the charge-conjugate processes were found to provide information on the weak phase $\gamma \equiv {\rm Arg}(V_{ub}^*)$ when the ratio $r$ of weak tree and penguin amplitudes…

Precision tests of the Standard Model and searches for New Physics in the quark flavor sector depend on accurate theoretical calculations of decay rates and spectra for rare, flavor-changing processes. The theoretical status and recent…

The decays $B_d\to\pi^\mp K^\pm$ and $B^\pm\to\pi^\pm K$ provide interesting constraints on the angle $\gamma$ of the unitarity triangle of the CKM matrix. It is shown that bounds on $\gamma$ can also be obtained from the time evolution of…

We compute branching ratios of $B\to K\pi$ decays in the framework of perturbative QCD factorization theorem. Decay amplitudes are classified into the topologies of tree, penguin and annihilation, all of which contain both factorizable and…

New physics contributions to B decays often arise through chromo-magnetic penguin operators. To look for new physics effects in B decays, it is useful to be able to estimate the hadronic matrix elements for the chromo-magnetic operator. We…

By employing the QCD factorization approach, we calculated the next-to-leading order new physics contributions to the branching ratios, CP asymmetries, isospin and U-spin symmetry breaking of the exclusive decays $B \to V \gamma$ ($V=K^*,…

We give a more complete calculation of $b \to s\gamma $ decay, including leading log QCD corrections from $m_{top}$ to $M_W$ in addition to corrections from $M_{W}$ to $m_b$. We have included the full set of dimension-6 operators and…

We employ the $B\to\pi$ form factors obtained from QCD light-cone sum rules and calculate the $B\to \pi \ell \nu_l$ width ($\ell=e,\mu$) in units of $1/|V_{ub}|^2$, integrated over the region of accessible momentum transfers, $0\leq q^2\leq…

Using the method of QCD light-cone sum rules, we calculate the $B \to \pi\pi$ hadronic matrix elements with annihilation topology. We obtain a finite result, including the related strong phase. Numerically, the annihilation effects in $B\to…

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…

We present a preliminary determination of the inclusive branching fraction for the rare radiative penguin transition B -> X_{s} gamma. The measurement is based on a data sample of 60 million BB pairs collected between 1999 and 2001 with the…

We present a preliminary measurement of the branching fraction of the exclusive penguin decay B^0 -> K^*0 gamma using (8.6+/-0.3) x 10^6 B-anti-B decays BF(B^0 -> K^*0 gamma) = (5.2+/-0.82 (stat.) +/- 0.47 (sys.)) x 10^-5. In addition we…

Efforts to predict the rare exclusive decay $B\to K^{\ast}\gamma$ from the well known inclusive decay $b\to s\gamma$ are frustrated by the effect of the large recoil momentum. We show how to reduce the large uncertainty in calculating this…

We report the first search for the penguin-dominated process $B^0 \rightarrow K_S^0 K_S^0 \gamma$ using the full data sample of $772\times 10^6$ $B\bar{B}$ pairs collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+ e^-$…

We compute the rate of the decay $B^- \to \mu^- {\bar \nu}_\mu \gamma$ by a QCD relativistic potential model, with the result: ${\cal B}(B^- \to \mu^- {\bar \nu}_\mu \gamma)=0.9 \cdot 10^{-6}$. We also discuss how this decay mode can be…

Motivated by the observation of the decay B to K* gamma by the CLEO collaboration, we have systematically analyzed the weak radiative decay Lambda_b to Lambda gamma, evaluating the confined effects of quarks in the covariant oscillator…
