The recently observed $B^-\to K^- \pi^0$, $\bar K^0 \pi^-$ and $\bar B^0 \to K^- \pi^+$ decay modes appear to have nearly equal branching ratios. This suggests that tree and electroweak penguins play an important role, and inclusion of the…
We derive constraints for $B\to VV$ modes ($V= vector meson) that allow aquantitative assessment of the contributions from electroweak penguins (EWP) and/or new physics. Interplay of direct CP with oscillation studies then leads to the…
The large branching ratios for $B \to K\pi$ decays as observed by the CLEO Collaboration indicate that penguin interactions contribute a major part to the decay rates and provide an interference between the Cabibbo-suppressed tree and…
An analysis of $B \to K\pi$ decays is given, assuming a small elastic $\pi K $ rescattering phase difference.Using factorization model only for the tree-level and electroweak penguin amplitudes, we show that the strong penguin amplitude,…
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…
The ratio of partial decay rates for charged and neutral $B$ mesons to $K \pi$ final states provides information on the weak phase $\gamma \equiv {\rm Arg} (V_{ub}^*)$ when augmented with information on the CP-violating asymmetry in the…
Electroweak penguin (EWP) amplitudes are studied model-independently in $B$ meson decays to charmless final states consisting of a vector meson ($V$) and a pseudoscalar meson ($P$). A set of SU(3) relations is derived between EWP…
In this paper, we perform a global analysis of $B \to PP$ and $PV$ decays with the QCD factorization approach. It is encouraging to observe that the predictions of QCD factorization are in good agreement with experiment. The best fit…
Using a theoretical framework based on the next-to-leading order QCD-improved effective Hamiltonian and a factorization Ansatz for the hadronic matrix elements of the four-quark operators, we reassess branching fractions in two-body…
Based on the most recent data in charmless B decays including the very recently reported large direct CP violations, it is shown that the weak phase gamma can well be extracted without two-fold ambiguity even only from two decay modes…
Using the $SU(3)$ flavour symmetry of strong interactions, we propose strategies for extracting both the CKM-angle $\gamma$ and the $\bar b\to\bar uu\bar s$ tree-level amplitude $T'$. We present also an approximate approach using the…
We demonstrate that the polarization fractions of most tree-dominated $B\to VV$ decays can be simply understood by means of kinematics in the heavy-quark or large-energy limit. For example, the longitudinal polarization fractions $R_L$ of…
We note that it is possible to determine the weak phase \gamma from the time dependent measurements of the decays $B_s^0(t) (\bar B_s^0 (t)) \to \bar D^0 \phi without any hadronic uncertainties. These decays are described by the color…
The Standard-Model interpretation of the ratios of charged and neutral B-> pi K rates, R_c and R_n, respectively, points towards a puzzling picture. Since these observables are affected significantly by colour-allowed electroweak (EW)…
A general parametrization of the $B^+\to\pi^+ K^0$ and $B_d^0\to\pi^- K^+$ decay amplitudes is presented. It relies only on the isospin symmetry of strong interactions and the phase structure of the Standard Model and involves no…
We analyse the $B \to K\pi$ decays using the factorisation model with final state interaction phase shift included. We find that factorisation seems to describe qualitatively the latest CLEO data. For a test of the factorisation model, we…
Using the QCD factorization approach, we reexamine the two-body hadronic charmless $B$-meson decays to final states involving a pseudoscalar~($P$) and a vector~($V$) meson, with inclusion of the penguin contractions of spectator-scattering…
Determinations of the CKM phase $\gamma$ from weak nonleptonic $B$ decays are affected by electroweak (EW) penguins and rescattering effects. In this talk it is explained how the EW penguin effects can be controlled with the help of SU(3)…
Based on the low energy effective Hamiltonian with generalized factorization, we calculate the new physics contributions to the branching ratios and CP-violating asymmetries of the two-body charmless hadronic decays $B \to PP, PV$ from the…
We report on recent progress in studying two aspects of $B$ physics, in which penguin amplitudes play an important role: (1) Bounds on penguin pollution in $B^0(t) \to \pi^+\pi^-$ constraining CKM parameters, and a lower bound on $B^0 \to…
