We construct hadronic amplitudes for the three-body decays $\eta^{(\prime)}\to\pi^+\pi^-\pi^0$ and $\eta'\to\eta\pi^+\pi^-$ in a non-perturbative fashion, allowing for $C$- and $CP$-violating asymmetries in the $\pi^+\pi^-$ distributions.…

Direct CP violation in the hadronic decays $\Bar{B}^{0} \to \pi^{+}\pi^{-} \pi^{0}$ is investigated near the peak of the $\rho^{0}$ taking into account the effect of $\rho - \omega$ mixing. Branching ratios for processes $B^{\pm,0} \to…
