Motivated by extensive new high-precision experimental data, we present an updated analysis of the two-body charm decays $D \to PV$ (with $P =\pi,K, \eta^{(\prime)}$ and $V =\rho, K^*, \omega, \phi$) within the factorization-assisted…
The non-$D \bar D$ decays of the $\ppp = \psi(3770)$ resonance are reviewed and possibilities for further measurements are noted. These decays can shed light on S--D mixing, the ``missing'' $\psi' = \psi(3686)$ decays, a possible…
The importance of measuring the non-$D \bar D$ decays of the $\psi'' = \psi(3770)$ resonance is discussed. These decays can shed light on a possible discrepancy between the total and $D \bar D$ cross sections at the $\psi''$, and on a…

Recent results on Dalitz analysis of three-pseudoscalar decays are discussed in the context of probing charm hadronic-decay mechanisms: the role of FSI effects, which create phase shifts between the interfering resonant channels, can be…

Isospin and flavor SU(3) relations in charmless hadronic B decays $B\to \pi \pi, \pi K$ are investigated in detail with paying attention to the SU(3) symmetry breaking effects in both amplitudes and strong phases. In general, the isospin…
We perform a comprehensive SU(3)-flavor analysis of charmed mesons decaying to two pseudoscalar SU(3)-octet mesons. Taking into account SU(3)-breaking effects induced by the splitting of the quark masses, m_s != m_{u,d}, we find that…
Evidence of CP violation in the charm sector has been observed recently by the LHCb and CDF Collaborations. Adopting the topological diagram approach, we study flavor SU(3) symmetry breaking effects in the weak decay tree amplitudes of…
We investigate to what extent the recently measured value for a non-vanishing direct CP asymmetry in D0 -> K+ K- and D0 -> pi+ pi- decays can be accommodated in the Standard Model (SM) or extensions with a constrained flavour sector, for…
We present a systematic study of the final-state interaction (FSI) effects in $D(e,e'p)$ scattering in the CEBAF energy range with particular emphasis on the phenomenon of the angular anisotropy of the missing momentum distribution. We find…
Several modes of $B$ decays into three pseudoscalar octet mesons PPP have been measured. These decays have provided useful information for B decays in the standard model (SM). Some of powerful tools in analyzing B decays are flavor $SU(3)$…

Using flavor SU(3) symmetry, we perform a model-independent analysis of charmless $\bar B_{u,d} (\bar B_s) \to PP, ~PV$ decays. All the relevant topological diagrams, including the presumably subleading diagrams, such as the QCD- and…
We discuss the correlations of charming penguin contributions to $B\to\pi\pi$, $\pi K$ and KK using approximate flavor SU(3) symmetry. Strong constraints are found from the direct CP asymmetries especially in $\pi K$ modes. We make a global…
Several $B$ and $B_s$ decays have been observed which have been cited as evidence for exchange ($E$), penguin annihilation ($PA$) and annihilation ($A$) processes, such as $\bar b d \to \bar u u$, $\bar b s \to \bar u u$ and $\bar b u \to…

In this paper the decay of $B^+_c$ meson, consisting of two b and c heavy quarks, into the $D^0$ and $K^+$ mesons is studied. Given that the experimental branching ratio for this decay is within the range of $3.72\times 10^{-5}$ to…
Inelastic rescattering effects in B decays into a pair $PP$ of pseudoscalar mesons ($PP = \pi \pi$ or $K\bar{K}$) are discussed. It is assumed that $B$ meson decays through a short-distance tree-diagram process into two jet-like states…
