We provide an extensive study of the lifetimes of singly charmed baryons and mesons, within the heavy quark expansion with all known corrections included. A special attention is devoted to the choice of the charm mass and wavefunctions of heavy baryons. We give our predictions for lifetimes, lifetime ratios, and semileptonic branching ratios of singly charmed baryons. Our results accommodate the experimentally-favoured hierarchy of singly charmed baryon lifetimes \begin{eqnarray*} \tau\left(\Xi_c^{0}\right) < \tau\left(\Lambda_c^{+}\right)< \tau\left(\Omega_c^{0}\right) < \tau\left(\Xi_c^{+}\right)\, \end{eqnarray*} in contrast to earlier theoretical findings. Predictions for charmed meson lifetimes and semileptonic decay rates are in agreement with a recent comprehensive study and experimental results within uncertainties.

Predictions for $b$-baryon lifetimes at NNLO-QCD
NNLO-QCD corrections to the free b-quark decay and NLO corrections to dimension-five operators reduce uncertainties in HQE predictions for b-baryon lifetimes, yielding excellent agreement with experiment.

Study of doubly heavy baryon lifetimes
Lifetimes of Xi_cc++, Xi_cc+, Omega_cc+ are (2.67 ± 0.94, 0.47 ± 0.08, 1.79 ± 0.62) × 10^{-13} s and for Xi_bb0, Xi_bb-, Omega_bb- are (0.75 ± 0.11, 0.92 ± 0.15, 0.93 ± 0.15) × 10^{-12} s, with W-exchange driving larg...

Revisiting lifetimes of doubly charmed baryons
Updated predictions within the heavy quark expansion confirm the lifetime hierarchy τ(Ξ_cc^+) < τ(Ω_cc^+) < τ(Ξ_cc^++) with τ(Ξ_cc^++) = 0.32 ± 0.05 +0.08/-0.07 ps matching LHCb data and provide ratios for the other states.
