The study of Dalitz plots of heavy-meson decays to multi-hadron final states has received intensified interest by the possibility to gain access to precision investigations of CP violation. A thorough understanding of the hadronic…
I briefly describe the use of the three-body decay modes $B^0 \to D^{(*)-} D^{(*)0} K^+$ to investigate open issues in charmed meson spectroscopy, and of the time dependent $B^0 (\bar {B^0}) (t) \to D^{-} D^{+} \pi^0$ transitions for a…
Some years ago, a method was proposed for measuring the CP-violating phase gamma using pairs of two-body decays that are related by U-spin reflection (d <-> s). In this paper we adapt this method to charmless B -> PPP decays. Time-dependent…

We study the Dalitz plot of the Cabibbo-favored charmed-meson decay $D^+\to K^-\pi^+\pi^+$ using dispersion theory. The formalism respects all constraints from analyticity and unitarity, and consistently describes final-state interactions…
An analysis of the Dalitz plots for the decays $D^+\to K^-\pi^+\pi^+$ and $D^+\to\pi^-\pi^+\pi^+$ indicates that structure with significant phase variation is required in the s-wave $K^-\pi^+$ and $\pi^-\pi^+$ systems in the region below 1…
We describe Dalitz plots arising in studies of $D$-meson decays, and what we have learned from them in recent years. After some mention of technique and history, we focus on decay of the $D^\pm$ and $D_s^\pm$ mesons to the $K^-K^+\pi^\pm$…
