We report our theoretical calculations on the branching fractions for the semileptonic $B$ and $B_s$ decays, i.e., $B (B_s) \to (P,\, V,\, S,\,A) \ell \nu_\ell$, where $P$ and $V$ denote the pseudoscalar and vector mesons, respectively,…

In this note, recent results of studies of semileptonic B meson decays from \babar are discussed and preliminary results given. In particular, a recent measurement of $\mathcal{B}(B \to D^{(*)}\tau \nu)$ and the ratio $\mathcal{B}(B \to…

The study on the charmed scalar meson spectroscopy has become a hot topic both experimentally and theoretically. The $B_{(s)}$ decays provide an ideal place to study their property. We employ the $B$-meson light-cone sum rules to compute…

I review some of the recent developments in the theoretical description of weak inclusive decays of heavy mesons. The topics cover the value of $|V_{cb}|$ as extracted from semileptonic inclusive decays and a short discussion of the…

We compare (i) nonfactorizable charm-quark loops in exclusive FCNC B-decays and (ii) three-particle contributions to the amplitude of semileptonic B-decay. Both amplitudes are given in the heavy-quark limit, $m_b\to\infty$, by a convolution…

We study semileptonic decays $B^\pm \to \eta^{(\prime)} l \nu$, which are suggested to be used to extract the hadronic form factors of $B$ meson decays to $\eta(\eta^{\prime})$ and the angle of $\eta-\eta^{\prime}$ mixing. This would be of…

I review the status of theoretical aspects of B-decays. The principal difficulty in interpreting the wealth of experimental data is the control of non-perturbative QCD effects, and the talk is focused on attempts to control these effects.…

We report a measurement of the inclusive charmless semileptonic branching fraction of B mesons in a sample of 89 million BBbar events recorded with the BABAR detector at the Y(4S) resonance. Events are selected by fully reconstructing the…

I review the recent theoretical progress on the study of tree-level semileptonic $b\to c$ decays. After briefly reviewing the latest developments on the exclusive determinations of $|V_{cb}|$, I discuss the hints on lepton flavor…

Two of the elements of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa quark mixing matrix, $|V_{ub}|$ and $|V_{cb}|$, are extracted from semileptonic B decays. The results of the B factories, analysed in the light of the most recent theoretical…

The semileptonic decays $B_c^+\rightarrow P(V) +\ell^++\bar{\nu}_\ell$ and the nonleptonic decays $B_c^+\rightarrow P(V)+L$, where $P(V)$ denotes a pseudoscalar (vector) charmonium or ($\bar{b}s$)-meson, and $L$ denotes a light meson, are…

Recent developments in the theory of weak decays of heavy flavours are reviewed. Applications to exclusive semileptonic B decays, the semileptonic branching ratio and charm counting, beauty lifetimes, and hadronic B decays are discussed.

We investigate the semileptonic and nonleptonic decays of $B_s$ mesons. We work within the context of nonrelativistic constituent quark models. We calculate the different form factors that parameterize the hadron matrix elements.

We present a study of B decays into semileptonic final states containing charged and neutral $D_1(2420)$ and $D_2^*(2460)$. The analysis is based on a data sample of $208 fb^{-1}$ collected at the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance with the BaBar…

Precision results on the leptonic, semileptonic, and hadronic decays of charm mesons are reviewed. These results are important for timely progress in weak flavor physics both in their own right and as checks of theoretical calculations.…

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 and D decay, and…

In these proceedings, we explore the possible reach of the LHCb dataset in the area of charm semileptonic decays. Specifically, we give prospects for the measurement of $|V_{cs}|/|V_{cd}|$ using $\mathcal{B}(D^0\to…

The most recent b-physics results from the OPAL experiment at LEP are reviewed. A measurement of semileptonic B meson decays to narrow orbitally-excited charm mesons is presented first, followed by a study of charm production in b-hadron…

Estimates of the branching ratios for B_{d,s}->J/psi eta and B_{d,s}->eta l+l- are obtained by SU(3) relation to B_d->J/psi K and B_d->K l+l-, respectively, as functions of the eta mixing parameter, theta_P. Based on these estimates, a…

With the generalized factorization approximation, we calculate the branching ratios and CP asymmetries in B meson decays into two charmless pseudoscalar mesons. We give a new estimation of the matrix elements of (S+P)(S-P) current products…
