  3. FACTORIZATION SCHEME Factorization is the assumption that the two-body hadronic decays of B mesons can be expressed as the product of two independent hadronic currents. The decay amplitude is given by Three classes of the decays: • Class I transition (caused by color favored), • Class II transition (caused by color suppressed) and • Class III transition (caused by both color favored and color suppressed diagrams).

  7. There have been many theoretical efforts to study the bottom meson emitting decays involving s-wave mesons (B PP/PV/VV) i.e. pseudoscalar (P) and vector (V) mesons using the factorization scheme. However, B mesons being heavy, can also emit p-wave mesons i.e. axial-vector (A), tensor (T) and scalar (S) mesons, which we have studied in the next chapters.

  23. CALCULATION OF THE FORM FACTORS IN ISGW II MODEL

  24. So far, theoretical focus has also been on the s-wave mesons i.e., pseudoscalar and vector mesons emitting decays. However, the bottom mesons and uniquely observed bottom-charm mesons, being heavy, can also emit p-wave mesons i.e., axial-vector, tensor and scalar mesons. • The hadronic weak currents are expressed in the terms of the form factors which are usually calculated from the phenomenological models, we have employed BSW model to calculate the BP form factors which match well with the experimental information.

  25. We have also studied the hadronic weak decays of uniquely observed bottom-charm (Bc) meson made up of both heavy quarks • For the BcA transition form factors appearing in the decay matrix elements, we employ ISGW II model because it provide the more reliable form factors. We obtained the decay amplitude and consequently predicted the branching ratios for BcPAdecays. • In case of Bc meson, one naively expects the bottom conserving modes (c -> u, s transitions) to be kinematically suppressed in comparison to the bottom changing ones. However, the large CKM angle involved in the charm changing modes overcomes the kinematics suppression.Consequently, bottom changing decays get suppressed in comparison to bottom conserving decays. Measurements of their branching ratios provide a useful test of our model.

  26. We look to extend the present approach to calculate Bc VA decays. • Here also, we look forward to calculate to use the ISGW II model form factors to calculate Bc V transition form factors. • It may be pointed out that so for these transition formfactors have not been used by any one.

  27. The matrix element for various Bc A and Bc V transition are given by

  28. Since, final states of BcVA carry spin degrees of freedom, the decay amplitudes in terms of helicities, like those in the BcVVdecays, can be generally described by Because, Bc is a pseudoscalar, the two outgoing vector mesons A and V have to carry the same helicity. Consequently, the amplitudes with different helicities can be decomposed as where p is the magnitude of vector momenta of vector mesons.

  29. In addition, we can also write the amplitudes in terms of polarizations as Accordingly, the polarization fractions can be defined to be representing longitudinal, transverse parallel and transverse perpendicular components, respectively. In sum, the decay rate expressed by polarization amplitudes is given by
