We express the amplitudes for charmless three-body B decays in terms of diagrams. In addition, we show how to use Dalitz-plot analyses to obtain decay amplitudes which are symmetric or antisymmetric under the exchange of two of the…

Intriguing B --> K eta' decays provide a unique opportunity to study a joining of two-gluon configurations arising from the penguin b --> sG and b --> sGG transitions, with those inherent to the eta' particle. We employ the heavy-light…

The effects due to soft-photon emission (and the related virtual corrections) in multi-body decays of B, D, and K mesons are analysed. We present analytic expressions for the universal O(alpha) correction factors which can be applied to all…

We describe a recently developed heavy-light chiral quark model and show how it can be used to calculate decay amplitudes for heavy mesons. In particular, we discuss B- antiB mixing, B -> D antiD, B -> D eta' and the beta term for D* -> D…

We present a new technique to extract information on the Unitarity Triangle from the study of Bs -> K pi pi Dalitz plot. Using isospin symmetry and the possibility to access the decay amplitudes from Dalitz analyses, we propose a new…

We study the radiative decay B -> gamma l nu_l in the framework of QCD factorization. We demonstrate explicitly that, in the heavy-quark limit and at one-loop order in perturbation theory, the amplitude does factorize, i.e. that it can be…

We have studied, with the KLOE detector at the DA$\Phi$NE $\Phi$-Factory, the dynamics of the decay $\eta\to\pi^+\pi^-\pi^0$ using data from the radiative $\phi\to\eta\gamma$ decay for an integrated luminosity $L = 450 \textrm{pb^{-1}}$.…

We use a factorization theorem from the soft-collinear effective theory along with heavy quark symmetry to make model independent predictions for B-> D^(*)M where M={eta,eta',phi, omega}. Gluon production of these isosinglet mesons is…

Dalitz analyses in charm give access to both magnitudes and phases of the charm decay amplitudes. They play a significant role in charm-mixing measurements, in the measurement of the CP-violating phase gamma in B decays to charm, and in the…

The considerable influx of new data on B decays offers opportunities to determine some of the smaller contributions to the decay process, such as suppressed diagrams, and to test the relations between decay amplitudes implied by (broken)…
