Consequences resulting from the D Dbar excess derived indirectly by the NA50 experiment in S+U and Pb+Pb collisions at sqrt(s)=19, 17 GeV, relevant for the identification of the QCD phase transition in these collisions, are discussed. The…

We report on the inclusive branching fractions of $B^-$ and of ${\bar B}^0$ mesons decaying to ${D^0 X}$, ${{\bar D}^0 X}$, ${D^+ X}$, ${D^- X}$, ${D_s^+ X}$, ${D_s^- X}$, ${\Lambda_c^+ X}$, ${{\bar \Lambda}_c^- X}$, based on a sample of…

Due to the presence of the quantum correlation between the pair-produced D0 and D0bar from the decay of the psi(3770), the time-integrated single and double tag decay rates depend on charm mixing amplitudes, doubly-Cabibbo-suppressed…

Based on a dataset acquired by the BaBar experiment running on and near the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance from 1999-2002, limits are set on the rate of $D^0$-- $\kern 0.2em\bar{\kern -0.2em D}{}^0$ mixing using the decay mode $D^{*+} \to D^0…

There are two apparent puzzles connected with the two-body and three-body doubly charmed baryonic B decays. First, earlier calculations based on QCD sum rules or the diquark model predict $Br(\bar B^0\to\Xi_c^+\bar\Lambda_c^-)\approx…

The recent measurements by CLEO Collaboration for the inclusive J/Psi and Psi(2S) production in Upsilon(1S) decay and our previous calculation are analyzed. The J/Psi momentum spectrum and the production ratio of Psi(2S) versus J/Psi favour…

We have searched for CP-violating asymmetries in neutral charm meson decays in 13.7 fb^-1 of e^+e^- collision data at sqrt{s} = 10.6 GeV with the CLEO detector. The measured asymmetries in the rate of D0 and D0bar decays to K0sPi0, Pi0Pi0…

We study radiative charm decays $D \to P_1 P_2 \gamma$, $P_{1,2}=\pi,K$ in QCD factorization at leading order and within heavy hadron chiral perturbation theory. Branching ratios including resonance contributions are around $\sim 10^{-3}$…

We interprete the new double charm baryon state found by the LHCb Collaboration in the invariant mass distribution of the set of final state particles $(\Lambda_c^+\,K^-\,\pi^+\,\pi^+)$ as being at the origin of the decay chain…

Using data collected by the CLEO detector in the Upsilon(4S) region, we report new measurements of the exclusive decays of B mesons into final states of the type Lambda_c^+ p-bar n(pi), where n=0,1,2,3. We find signals in modes with one,…

Preliminary results are presented on a search for several exclusive charmless hadronic B decays, from data collected by the BABAR detector near the Upsilon(4S) resonance. These include two-body decay modes h^{+/-}h^{-/+} three-body decay…

The strong decays of charm-strange baryons up to N=2 shell are studied in a chiral quark model. The theoretical predictions for the well determined charm-strange baryons, $\Xi_c^*(2645)$, $\Xi_c(2790)$ and $\Xi_c(2815)$, are in good…

A list is given of those open questions concerning the dynamics of charm decays where there exists a strong need for an answer. Such a need is based on lessons to be learnt about QCD -- either in their own right or for a better…

Measurements of charm mixing parameters from the decay-time-dependent ratio of D0->K+pi- to D0->K-pi+ rates and the charge-conjugate ratio are reported. The analysis uses data, corresponding to 3 fb^{-1} of integrated luminosity, from…

Using an inclusive method, BR(b -> D\bar{D}X) has been measured in hadronic Z^0 decays with the OPAL detector at LEP. The impact parameter significance of tracks opposite tagged b-jets is used to differentiate b -> D\bar{D}X decays from…

Using a sample of 1.8 million DDbar meson pairs collected at the psi(3770) with the CLEO-c detector, we study the semileptonic decays D^0 -> pi^- e^+ nu_e, D^+ -> pi^0 e^+ \nu_e, D^0 -> K^- e^+ \nu_e, and D^+ -> Kbar^0 e^+ nu_e. For the…

Upsilon (1S) decay to Xi_cc +anything is studied. It is shown that the branching ratio can be as significant as that of Upsilon (1S) decay to J/Psi +anything. The non-relativistic heavy quark effective theory framework is employed for the…
