Abstract

We investigate the possibility of testing factorization hypothesis in non-leptonic exclusive decays of B-meson. In particular, we considered the non factorizable B0 -> D(*)+ Ds(*)- modes and B0 -> D(*)+ (π-, ρ-) known as well-factorizable modes. By taking the ratios BR(B0-> D(*)+Ds(*)-)/BR(B0-> D(*)+(π-,ρ-)), we found that under the present theoretical and experimental uncertainties there's no evidence for the breakdown of factorization description to heavy-heavy decays of the B meson.
