$B_{(s)} \rightarrow D^{**}_{(s)}$ form factors in HQEFT and model independent analysis of relevant semileptonic decays with NP effects

The form factors of $B_{(s)}$ decays into P-wave excited charmed mesons (including $D^*_0(2300)$, $D_1(2430)$, $D_1(2420)$, $D^*_2(2460)$ and their strange counterparts, denoted generically as $D^{**}_{(s)}$) are systematically calculated via the QCD sum rules in the framework of heavy quark effective field theory (HQEFT). We consider contributions up to the next leading order of heavy quark expansion and give all the relevant form factors, including the scalar and tensor ones only relevant for possible new physics effects. The expressions for the form factors in terms of several universal wave functions are derived via heavy quark expansion. These universal functions can be evaluated through QCD sum rules. Then, the numerical results of the form factors are presented. With the form factors given here, a model independent analysis of relevant semileptonic decays $B_{(s)} \rightarrow D^{**}_{(s)} l \barν_l$ is performed, including the contributions from possible new physics effects. Our predictions for the differential decay widths, branching fractions and ratios of branching fractions $R(D^{**}_{(s)})$ may be tested in more precise experiments in the future.

Strong decays of the $X(2500)$ newly observed by the BESIII Collaboration

Basing on the observation of a new $J^{PC}=0^{-+}$ state, $X(2500)$, in the partial wave analysis of the decay $J/ψ\rightarrowγX\rightarrow γϕϕ$ performed by the BESIII Collaboration, we have evaluated the strong decays of the $X(2500)$ as the $4^1S_0$ and $5^1S_0$ $s\bar{s}$ states in the $^3P_0$ meson decay model. The predicted total decay width for the $4^1S_0$ $s\bar{s}$ is about 894.5 MeV, and the one for the $5^1S_0$ $s\bar{s}$ is about 271.1 MeV, which is in agreement with the experimental data $Γ_{X(2500)}=230^{+64+56}_{-35-33}$ MeV. By considering the mass and the total strong decay width of the $X(2500)$, we propose that the $X(2500)$ state can be interpreted as a candidate of the $5^1S_0$ $s\bar{s}$ state.

Excited bottom and bottom-strange mesons in the quark model

In order to understand the possible $q\bar{q}$ quark-model assignments of the $B_J(5840)$ and $B_J(5960)$ recently reported by the LHCb Collaboration, we evaluate mass spectra, strong decays, and radiative decays of bottom and bottom-strange mesons in a nonrelativistic quark model. Comparing these predictions with the relevant experimental results, we suggest that the $B_J(5840)$ and $B_J(5960)$ can be identified as the $B(2^1S_0)$ and $B(1^3D_3)$, respectively, and the $B(5970)$ reported by the CDF Collaboration can be interpreted as the $B(2^3S_1)$ or $B(1^3D_3)$. Further precise measurements of the width, spin and decay modes of the $B(5970)$ are needed to distinguish these two assignments. These predictions of bottom and bottom-strange mesons can provide useful information to further experimental investigations.
