Aspects of non leptonic $B_s$ decays

Abstract

I discuss a model independent determination of the widths of a class of two-body $\bar{B}_s^0 $ decays induced by $b \to c \bar u d$ and $b \to c \bar u s$ transitions. The analysis is based on $SU(3)_F$ symmetry and exploits existing information on $\bar B \to D_{(s)} P$ and $\bar B \to D_{(s)} V$ decays, with $P$ and $V$ a light pseudoscalar or vector meson. The results are relevant for the $B_s$ physics programmes at the hadron colliders and at the $e^+ e^-$ factories running at the peak of $Î¥(5S)$.
