We report corrected results on a study of the electromagnetic Dalitz decay $J/\psi \to e^+e^- \eta$ and search for di-electron decays of a light dark gauge boson ($\gamma'$) in $J/\psi \to \gamma' \eta$ with the two $\eta$ decay modes $\eta…
We show that final state interactions are important in shaping Dalitz plots for the decay $D^+ \rar K^- \p^+ \p^+$. The theoretical treatment of this reaction requires a blend of several weak and hadronic processes and hence it is…
We report the first observation of the Dalitz decay $\eta' \to \gamma e^+e^-$, based on a data sample of 1.31 billion $J/\psi$ events collected with the BESIII detector. The $\eta'$ mesons are produced via the $J/\psi \to \gamma \eta'$…

Two of the most powerful methods currently used to determine the angle $\gamma$ of the CKM Unitarity Triangle exploit $B^+ \to DK^+$, $D \to K_{\rm S}^0\pi^+\pi^-$ decays and $B^0 \to DK^+\pi^-$, $D \to K^+K^-$, $\pi^+\pi^-$ decays. It is…
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 $K^-K^+\pi^\pm$…
