Recent experimental results in charm and charmonium spectroscopy are reviewed.
Measuring and testing dependence between complex objects is of great importance in modern statistics. Most existing work relied on the distance between random variables, which inevitably required the moment conditions to guarantee the…
We report a sample of recent and topical physics results based on the data recorded with the Belle detector at the KEK B-factory in Japan.
The phenomenon of quantum tunneling is reviewed and an overview of applying approximate methods for studying this effect is given. An approach to a time-dependent formalism is proposed in one dimension and generalized to higher dimensions.…
An experimental procedure for measuring gamma-T has been developed and tested in two different measurements, with the gamma-T quads on and off. The results were compared to MAD calculations. The discrepancy between the measured gamma-T and…
This author's recent proposal of interferometric tests of Planck-scale-related properties of space-time is here revisited from a strictly phenomenological viewpoint. The results announced previously are rederived using elementary…
Utilizing all the experimental measured charmless $B \to PP$, $PV$ decay modes, where $P(V)$ denotes a light pseudoscalar (vector) meson, we extract the CKM angle $\gamma$ by global fit. All the unknown hadronic parameters are fitted with…
We report on the measurement of the decay $B\to K^{\star}\gamma$, lepton-flavor dependent angular analysis of the decay $B\to K^{\star}\ell\ell$, and search for the decays $B\to h\nu\nu$. All these analyses are performed on the 711…
We present the first extensive test of the critical point symmetry X(5) for the gamma degree of freedom, based in part on recent measurements for the gamma-band in 152 Sm. The agreement is good for some observables including the energies…
A model for the cosmological time dependence of weak interactions is discused and some experimental tests suggested.
We present a summary of measurements sensitive to the CKM angle $\phi_2$, performed by the Belle experiment using the final data sample of $772 \times 10^{6}$ $B\bar{B}$ pairs produced at the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance at the KEK asymmetric…
The semileptonic $B$ meson decays of the type $B \to X_u \ell \nu$ are important for measuring the magnitude of the CKM matrix element $V_{ub}$. Recent measurements of inclusive $B \to X_u e \nu_e$ and hadronically tagged $B^0 \to \pi^-…
An overview of plans for the measurement of gamma at the LHCb experiment will be shown. The gamma angle is the least accurately known parameter of the CKM unitary triangle. The LHCb experiment at the CERN LHC aims to perform precision heavy…
The CKM paradigm has been tested thoroughly over the last 40 years in both the neutral $K$ and $B$ systems. The recent discovery of neutral charm meson mixing has prompted the search for CP violation in $D$ decays. We discuss the prospects…
The measurement of $\sin {2\beta}$ from $B_d \to J/\psi K_s$ does not resolve the discrete ambiguities in the angle $\beta$. A measurement of $\cos {2\beta}$ is therefore desirable.This talk is about measuring the CKM angle $\beta(\phi_1)$…
From astrophysics there are indications that the finestructure constant $\alpha $ has changed during the past 10 billion years. Within grand unification one can deduce that also the QCD scale has changed. Tests for a time variation of this…
The proper-time resolution function for the measurement of the time evolution of B mesons with the Belle detector at KEKB is studied in detail. The obtained resolution function is applied to the measurement of B meson lifetimes, the…
