We find new sum rules between direct CP asymmetries in $D$ meson decays with coefficients that can be determined from a global fit to branching ratio data. Our sum rules eliminate the penguin topologies $P$ and $PA$, which cannot be…
We describe searches for decays to two-body charmless final states eta' eta, eta' pi0 and eta pi0 of B0 mesons produced in e+e- annihilation. The data, collected with the BaBar detector at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center, represent…
We discuss an improved theoretical description of the semi-inclusive B meson decays $B\to K(K^*)X$. The decay distributions are calculated. Their branching ratios are found to be appreciable. The CP asymmetries in the neutral B modes…
We calculate the branching ratios of the yet unmeasured eta' decays into four pions, based on a combination of chiral perturbation theory and vector-meson dominance. The decays eta' --> 2(pi+ pi-) and eta' --> pi+ pi- 2pi0 are P-wave…
We use three-point QCD sum rules to calculate the form factors governing the rare exclusive decays B \to (K,K^*) \ell^+ \ell^-, B \to (K,K^*) \nu \bar\nu. We predict the branching ratios, the invariant mass distributions of the lepton pair…
Charge-parity (CP) asymmetries in charm decays are extremely suppressed in the Standard Model and may well be dominated by new physics contributions. The LHCb collaboration reported the results of direct CP asymmetry measurements in $D^0\to…
