We investigate semileptonic sum rules in heavy-to-light charm decays, motivated by analogous relations in $b \to c$ and $b \to u$ transitions. Focusing on the $c \to d\overline{\ell}\nu$ decays, $D \to \pi\overline{\ell}\nu$, $D \to…

We reconsider the semileptonic decays of $B\to D_1^{(\prime)}l\bar \nu_l$. The previous theoretical calculations predict a significantly smaller rate for the semileptonic decay of $B$ to $D'_1(J_l=\frac{1}{2})$ compared with that to the…

The $B_c$ meson, a unique bound state comprising of two open heavy flavors, charm and bottom, offers a rich avenue for probing the predictions of the Next Decade - Standard Model (ND-SM) physics properties due to its heavy mass. With recent…

The study of mesons and baryons which contain at least one charm quark is referred to as open charm physics. It offers the possibility to study up-type quark transitions. Since the $c$ quark can not be treated in any mass limit, theoretical…

The semileptonic decays of $B_q$ mesons ($q=u,d,s$) to $J^P=2^+$ charmed mesons are investigated. The form factors parametrising the hadronic matrix elements of the weak vector and axial-vector quark currents are evaluated using light-cone…

In these lectures I review what has been learned from studies of b-quark decays, including semileptonic decays ($V_{ub}$ and $V_{cb}$), $B^o-\overline{B}^o$ mixing and rare B decays. Then a discussion on CP violation follows, which leads to…

We describe two complementary ways to show the presence of higher order effects in the 1/m_Q expansion for inclusive B decays that have been dubbed "Intrinsic Charm". Apart from the lessons they can teach us about QCD's nonperturbative…

Updated standard model predictions for $D_{(s)} \to P l^+ l^-$, $l=e,\mu$, $P=\pi,K$ and inclusive decays are presented. Model-independent constraints on $|\Delta C|=|\Delta U|=1$ Wilson coefficients are worked out. New physics (NP)…

We present results for the semi-leptonic and leptonic decays of B mesons. These non-perturbative matrix elements are important for constraining the CKM matrix. Results are presented for the pseudoscalar and vector decay constants, as well…

The semileptonic decay form factors of the double heavy $B_{c}$ meson provide a unique opportunity to study the strong interactions between two heavy quarks. A fully relativistic model, with effective non-local quark-meson interactions, is…

Based on the low energy effective Hamiltonian with naive factorization, we calculate the branching ratios(BRs) and CP asymmetries (CPAs) for the twenty three double charm decays $B/B_s \to D^{(*)}_{(s)} D^{(*)}_{(s)}$ in both the standard…

We review some recent developments in charm meson physics. In particular, we discuss theoretical predictions and experimental measurements of charmed meson decays to leptonic, semileptonic, and hadronic final states and implications of such…

In this talk we summarize the status of theoretical predictions for the average number of charm quarks in a B-hadron decay.

We have obtained the differential decay rate and calculated the branching ratios of the exclusive semileptonic decays $B(D) \to Xl\nu$, where $X$ is a p-wave meson, using the nonrelativistic ISGW quark model. Our results are compared with…

We perform an analysis of two-body non leptonic decays of $B$ and $B_s$ mesons in the factorization approximation. We make use of the semileptonic decay amplitudes previously calculated on the basis of an effective lagrangian satisfying…

The ground vector $B_{c}^{\ast}$ meson has not yet been experimentally discovered until now. Besides the dominant electromagnetic decays, nonleptonic weak decays provide another choice to search for the mysterious $B_{c}^{\ast}$ mesons.…

In this work, we investigate the semileptonic decays of $B_{c}$ meson to $\eta_{c}(1S,2S,3S)$, $\psi(1S,2S,3S)$ and $X(3872)$ within the framework of covariant light-front quark model (CLFQM). We combine the helicity amplitudes via the…

The parton model for semileptonic B meson decays is studied with special attention to the decay distributions. We find that the spectra show dramatic variations when we introduce cuts on the hadronic energy or invariant mass of hadrons.…

Based on the method of solving the complete Salpeter equation, we study the semileptonic decays of a $0^-$ heavy meson to $1P$, $2P$, or $3P$ heavy tensor mesons, $B_q \to (\bar c q)(nP) \ell^+ \nu_\ell$ $(q=u,d,s,c;n=1,2,3)$. The obtained…

We discuss the role of so-called "intrinsic-charm" operators in semi-leptonic B-meson decays, which appear first at order 1/m_b^3 in the heavy quark expansion. We show by explicit calculation that -- at scales mu <= m_c -- the contributions…
