Based on the flavor structure of four-quark effective operators, we develop an automatic computation program to calculate hadronic two-body $B$ meson decay amplitudes, and apply it to their global analysis in the perturbative QCD (PQCD)…
We present Dalitz plot analyses for the decays of $B$ mesons to $D^- D^0 K^+$ and $\overline{D}^0 D^0 K^+$. We report the observation of the $D^{*}_{s1}(2700)^+$ resonance in these two channels and obtain measurements of the mass…
We discuss the three-body decay mechanisms of many-body resonances. R-matrix sequential description is compared with full Faddeev computation. The role of the angular momentum and boson symmetries is also studied. As an illustration we show…
Methods for extracting the Unitarity Triangle angle $\phi_3$ from B decays to final states incluing a $D$ meson are reviewed. The current experimental status and future prospects are summarized.
A precise measurement of the angle $\alpha$ in the CKM triangle is very important for a complete test of Standard Model. A theoretically clean method to extract $\alpha$ is provided by B$^0 \to \rho \pi$ decays. Monte Carlo simulations to…
Resonance-mediated many body decays of heavy mesons are analyzed. We focus on some particular processes, in which the available phase space for the decay of the intermediate resonance is very narrow. It is shown that the mass selection…
We study charmless two-body baryonic B decays in a diagramatic approach. Relations on decay amplitudes are obtained. In general there are more than one tree and more than one penguin amplitudes. The number of independent amplitudes can be…
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…
The resonant structure of the doubly Cabibbo-suppressed decay $D^+ \to K^-K^+K^+$ is studied for the first time. The measurement is based on a sample of pp-collision data, collected at a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV with the LHCb detector…
Theoretical efforts to describe and explain the $\eta\to 3\pi$ decays reach far back in time. Even today, the convergence of the decay widths and some of the Dalitz plot parameters seems problematic in low energy QCD. In the framework of…
LHCb Collaboration studied the resonant structure of $B_s\to \overline{D}^0K^-\pi^+$ decays using the Dalitz plot analysis technique, based on a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $3.0{\rm fb}^{-1}$ of $pp$ collision.…
In this work, we systematically study the two-body strong decay of the $\rho/\rho_3$ states, which are observed and grouped into the $\rho/\rho_3$ meson family. By performing the phenomenological analysis, the underlying properties of these…
We perform a Dalitz plot analysis of about 100,000 Ds+ decays to K+ K- pi+ and measure the complex amplitudes of the intermediate resonances which contribute to this decay mode. We also measure the relative branching fractions of Ds+ --> K+…
Meson-meson amplitudes are important on their own and also play key roles in analyses of heavy-meson and tau decays. In this work we propose a new phenomenological model suited to all $SU(3)$ mesonic two-body final state interactions up to…
We review recent advances in the theory of strong-interaction effects and final-state interactions in hadronic weak decays of heavy mesons. In the heavy-quark limit, the amplitudes for most nonleptonic, two-body B decays can be calculated…
We present a Dalitz plot analysis of B- --> D+ pi- pi- decays, based on a sample of about 383 million Y(4S) --> BBbar decays collected by the BaBar detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy B Factory at SLAC. The analysis has been published…
LHCb has observed giant CP violation in localized regions of the Dalitz plots of B to three charmless light mesons. This has been interpreted as an enhancement due to strong two-body final state interactions. In this talk, we show how such…
A binned Dalitz plot analysis of $B^\pm \to D K^\pm$ decays, with $D \to K^0_{\rm S} \pi^+\pi^-$ and $D \to K^0_{\rm S} K^+ K^-$, is performed to measure the CP-violating observables $x_{\pm}$ and $y_{\pm}$ which are sensitive to the CKM…
We present Dalitz plot analyses for the decays of $B$ mesons to $D^-D^0K^+$ and $\overline{D}^0D^0K^+$. [Charge conjugate reactions are implicitly assumed throughout.] We report the observation of the $D^*_{s1}(2700)^+$ resonance in these…
