We report on the observation of B0bar -> D*0 pi+ pi+ pi- pi- decays. The branching ratio is (0.30 +/- 0.07 +/- 0.06)%. Interest in this particular mode was sparked by Ligeti, Luke and Wise who propose it as a way to check the validity of…

The main aim of the NA62 experiment at CERN is to study the rare $K^+ \rightarrow \pi^+ \nu \bar{\nu}$ decay and measure its Branching Ratio (BR) with $10%$ precision. Due to its theoretical precision, this decay is an excellent probe to…
