We summarize theoretical calculations of B_c decays and lifetime in the framework of QCD sum rules and compare the results with the estimates by the methods of Operator Product Expansion in the inverse heavy quark masses as well as of…
The lifetime of the B_c-meson is estimated with consistent considerations on all of the heavy mesons ($B^0, B^\pm, B_s, D^0, D^\pm D_s$) and the double heavy meson B_c. In the estimate, the framework, where the non-spectator effects for…
We calculate the semileptonic branching ratio and the charm counting of inclusive $B$ meson decays using the perturbative QCD formalism. For the nonleptonic decays, we employ the modified factorization theorem, in which Wilson coefficients…
The Standard Model decay rate of the $B_c$ meson is discussed together with a novel approach that uses experimental data in combination with an operator product expansion. In the new method differences of $B,\,D$ and $B_c$ meson decay rates…
The Standard Model prediction of the $B_c$ lifetime is discussed, together with the dominant uncertainties and strategies on how to improve them. Furthermore, a new method to compute the $B_c$ lifetime based on the operator product…
Using an operator product expansion (OPE) approach an updated Standard Model prediction of the $B_c$ lifetime is presented. The computation in three different mass schemes for the heavy quarks leads to three different values consistent with…
We in terms of optical theorem estimate the lifetime of $B_c-$meson with the parameters which are deturmined by fitting the data for the lifetimes and inclusive semilepton-decays of various $B$ and $D$ mesons. In the estimate, we find that…
Inclusive heavy-flavour decays can be described through $1/m_Q$ expansions derived from QCD with the help of an operator product expansion. I sketch their methodology and apply them first to semileptonic B decays; $|V(cb)|$ can be extracted…
Even if new data indicate that direct CP violation in D-meson decays is compatible with the standard model expectation, it has triggered a lot of interest, and charm phenomenology will remain an essential part of new physics searches due to…
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 Standard Model prediction of the $B_c$ lifetime is discussed, together with the dominant uncertainties and strategies on how to improve them. Furthermore, a new method to compute the $B_c$ lifetime based on the operator product…
The QCD-based operator-product-expansion technique is systematically applied to the study of charmed meson lifetimes. We stress that it is crucial to take into account the momentum of the spectator light quark of charmed mesons, otherwise…
The mass spectrum of $c \bar b$ meson is investigated with an effective quark-antiquark potential of the form $\frac{-\alpha_c}{r}$ + $A r^{\nu}$ with $\nu$ varying from 0.5 to 2.0. The S and P-wave masses, pseudoscalar decay constant, weak…
We determine masses and decay constants of heavy-heavy and heavy-charm pseudoscalar mesons as a function of heavy quark mass using a fully relativistic formalism known as Highly Improved Staggered Quarks for the heavy quark. We are able to…
We derive the $k_T$ resummation for doubly heavy-flavored $B_c$ meson decays by including the charm quark mass effect into the known formula for a heavy-light system. The resultant Sudakov factor is employed in the perutrbative QCD study of…
Semileptonic and nonleptonic decays of the B_c meson are studied in the framework of the relativistic quark model. The heavy quark expansion in inverse powers of the heavy (b,c) quark mass is used to simplify calculations while the light…
A phenomenological analysis of lifetimes of bottom and charmed hadrons within the framework of the heavy quark expansion is performed. The baryon matrix element is evaluated using the bag model and the nonrelativistic quark model. We find…
Phenomenological models of heavy flavour decays differ significantly in their predictions of global features of $B_c$ decays, like the $B_c$ lifetime or the relative weight of $c\ra s$ and $b\ra c$ transitions. The $1/m_Q$ expansion which…
The B meson lifetime ratios are calculated to the order of $1/m_b^3$ in the heavy quark expansion. The predictions of those ratios are dependent on four unknown hadronic parameters $B_1$, $B_2$, $\epsilon_1$ and $\epsilon_2$, where $B_1$…
We review the theory and phenomenology of heavy-quark symmetry, exclusive weak decays of B mesons, inclusive decay rates and lifetimes of b hadrons.
