We present an independent calculation of ${\cal{O}}(\alpha_s)$ matrix elements of the QCD penguin operators for the decays $\bar{B}\to X_{s(d)}\gamma$. The Mellin-Barnes representation technique is applied for the systematic numerical…

We suggest to use operator product expansion and QCD sum rule techniques to estimate the long-distance contribution to the amplitude of the exclusive rare decay $B\to K^* \gamma$. In contrast to a phenomenological description in terms of…

We develop a strategy for computing the $B\to K\ell^+\ell^-$ and $\bar{B}_s\to\gamma\ell^+\ell^-$ decay amplitudes using lattice QCD (where $\ell^\pm$ are charged leptons). We focus on those terms which contain complex contributions to the…

The transformation properties of strong penguin operators under the action of the flavor group change when they are considered as operators in (partially) quenched QCD instead of the unquenched theory. As a result, additional operators and…

We compute for the first time the long-distance penguin contribution to the double radiative $B$-meson decays due to the purely hadronic operators acting with the electromagnetic current in the background soft-gluon field from first…

We complete the calculation of the element $\Gamma_{12}^q$ of the decay matrix in $B_q-\bar{B}_q$ mixing, $q=d,s$, to order $\alpha_s$ in the leading power of the Heavy Quark Expansion. To this end we compute one- and two-loop contributions…

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…

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…

Including corrections of order $O(m_{K^*}/m_B)$, we present an analysis of photonic penguin contributions to the decay $B\to K^* \gamma$ in the perturbative QCD framework. Employing several models of the meson wave functions, we demonstrate…

The ampitude of the $B\to\rho\gamma$ decay induced by the flavour-changing neutral currents contains the penguin contribution and the weak-annihilation contribution generated by the 4-quark operators in the effective Hamiltonian. The…

In the calculation of non-leptonic weak decay rates, a "mismatch" arises when the QCD evolution of the relevant weak hamiltonian down to hadronic scales is performed in unquenched QCD, but the hadronic matrix elements are then computed in…

We perform an isospin analysis of $B$ decays to two pseudoscalars. The analysis extracts appropriate CKM and short distance loop factors to allow for comparison of non-perturbative QCD effects in the reduced matrix elements of the…

The short-distance contribution due to the $c\to u\gamma$ penguin as well as long-distance contributions are considered in an analysis of $D\to V\gamma$ decays, the latter being dominant. The matrix elements for nine $D\to V\gamma$…

Quenching effects in strong penguin matrix elements are investigated. A lattice determination of $\alpha_q^{NS}$, the constant that appears in the quenched ChPT relevant for the lattice analysis of $K\to\pi\pi$ matrix elements, shows that…

Using the next-to-leading order low energy effective Hamiltonian for $|\Delta B|=1$, $\Delta C=\Delta U=0$ transitions, the contributions of electroweak penguin operators in $ B^-(\overline {B_d^0})\rightarrow PP$ and $PV$ decays are…

We calculate the long-distance matrix elements for the decays of the lowest-lying S- and P-wave states of charmonium and bottomonium in quenched lattice QCD, using a nonrelativistic formulation for the heavy quarks. (The short-distance…

We consider two-loop QCD corrections to the element $\Gamma_{12}^q$ of the decay matrix in $B_q-\bar{B}_q$ mixing, $q=d,s$, in the leading power of the Heavy Quark Expansion. The calculated contributions involve one current-current and one…

We point out that chiral transformation properties of penguin operators change in the transition from unquenched to (partially) quenched QCD. The way in which this affects the lattice determination of weak matrix elements can be understood…

We evaluate $B\to K\pi$ decay amplitudes in perturbative QCD picture. It is found that penguin contributions are dynamically enhanced by nearly 50% compared to those assumed in the factorization approximation. It is also shown that…

We analyze the effects of the space-like penguin diagrams in two body B decays $B^-\to K^-{\bar K}^0$ and $B^-\to \pi^-{\bar K}^0$. Special attention is paid to the operator $Q_6$, whose contribution is large in the BSW model, but vanishes…
