We consider B to PS decays where P stands for pseudoscalar and S for a heavy (~1500 MeV) scalar meson. We achieve agreement with available experimental data -- which includes a two orders of magnitude hierarchy -- assuming the scalars mesons are two quark states. The contribution of the dipolar penguin operator O_{11} is quantified.

A search for $B^{+} to D_s^{+}K^{+}K^{-}$ decays is performed using $pp$ collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 4.8 fb$^{-1}$, collected at centre-of-mass energies of 7, 8 and 13$,$TeV with the LHCb experiment. A significant sign al is observed for the first time and the branching fraction is determined to be begin{equation*} mathcal{B}(B^{+} to D_s^{+}K^{+}K^{-} ) = (7.1 pm 0.5 pm 0.6 pm 0.7) times 10^{-6}, end{equation*} where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second systematic and the third due to the uncertainty on the branching fraction of the normalisation mode $B^{+} to D_s^{+} overline{kern -0.2em D}^{0}$. A search is also performed for the pure annihilation decay $B^{+} to D_s^{+}phi$. No significant signal is observed and a limit of begin{equation*} mathcal{B}(B^{+} to D_s^{+}phi) < 4.9 times 10^{-7}~(4.2 times 10^{-7}) end{equation*} is set on the branching fraction at 95$%$ (90$%$) confidence level.
While the factorization assumption works well for many two-body nonleptonic $B$ meson decay modes, the recent measurement of $bar Bto D^{(*)0}M^0$ with $M=pi$, $rho$ and $omega$ shows large deviation from this assumption. We analyze the $Bto D^{(*)}M $ decays in the perturbative QCD approach based on $k_T$ factorization theorem, in which both factorizable and nonfactorizable contributions can be calculated in the same framework. Our predictions for the Bauer-Stech-Wirbel parameters, $|a_2/a_1|= 0.43pm 0.04$ and $Arg(a_2/a_1)sim -42^circ$ and $|a_2/a_1|= 0.47pm 0.05$ and $Arg(a_2/a_1)sim -41^circ$, are consistent with the observed $Bto Dpi$ and $Bto D^*pi$ branching ratios, respectively. It is found that the large magnitude $|a_2|$ and the large relative phase between $a_2$ and $a_1$ come from color-suppressed nonfactorizable amplitudes. Our predictions for the ${bar B}^0to D^{(*)0}rho^0$, $D^{(*)0}omega$ branching ratios can be confronted with future experimental data.
We propose a method to quantify the Standard Model uncertainty in B to K pi decays using the experimental data, assuming that power counting provides a reasonable estimate of the subleading terms in the 1/mb expansion. Using this method, we show that present B to K pi data are compatible with the Standard Model. We analyze the pattern of subleading terms required to reproduce the B to K pi data and argue that anomalously large subleading terms are not needed. Finally, we find that S(KS pi0) is fairly insensitive to hadronic uncertainties and obtain the Standard Model estimate S(KS pi0)=0.74 +- 0.04.
At present, the measurements of $R_{D^{(*)}}$ and $R_{J/psi}$ hint at new physics (NP) in $b to c tau^- {bar u}$ decays. The angular distribution of ${bar B} to D^* (to D pi) , tau^{-} {bar u}_tau$ would be useful for getting information about the NP , but it cannot be measured. The reason is that the three-momentum ${vec p}_tau$ cannot be determined precisely since the decay products of the $tau^-$ include an undetected $ u_tau$. In this paper, we construct a measurable angular distribution by considering the additional decay $tau^- to pi^- u_tau$. The full process is ${bar B} to D^* (to D pi) , tau^{-} (to pi^- u_tau) {bar u}_tau$, which includes three final-state particles whose three-momenta can be measured: $D$, $pi$, $pi^-$. The magnitudes and relative phases of all the NP parameters can be extracted from a fit to this angular distribution. One can measure CP-violating angular asymmmetries. If one integrates over some of the five kinematic parameters parametrizing the angular distribution, one obtains (i) familiar observables such as the $q^2$ distribution and the $D^*$ polarization, and (ii) new observables associated with the $pi^-$ emitted in the $tau$ decay: the forward-backward asymmetry of the $pi^-$ and the CP-violating triple-product asymmetry.
We extract the Glauber divergences from the spectator amplitudes for two-body hadronic decays $B to M_1 M_2$ in the $k_T$ factorization theorem, where $M_2$ denotes the meson emitted at the weak vertex. Employing the eikonal approximation, the diverg ences are factorized into the corresponding Glauber phase factors associated with the $M_1$ and $M_2$ mesons. It is observed that the latter factor enhances the spectator contribution to the color-suppressed tree amplitude by modifying the interference pattern between the two involved leading-order diagrams. The first factor rotates the enhanced spectator contribution by a phase, and changes its interference with other tree diagrams. The above Glauber effects are compared with the mechanism in elastic rescattering among various $M_1 M_2$ final states, which has been widely investigated in the literature. We postulate that only the Glauber effect associated with a pion is significant, due to its special role as a $q bar q$ bound state and as a pseudo Nambu-Goldstone boson simultaneously. Treating the Glauber phases as additional inputs in the perturbative QCD (PQCD) approach, we find a good fit to all the $B to pipi$, $pirho$, $piomega$, and $pi K$ data, and resolve the long-standing $pipi$ and $pi K$ puzzles. The nontrivial success of this modified PQCD formalism is elaborated.
