We study light-cone distribution amplitudes of heavy-light systems, such as a B-meson. By an explicit computation, we determine how two-parton distribution amplitudes mix with three-parton ones at one loop: \phi_+ is shown to mix only into…
We report recent results of the Dalitz plot analyses of D and D_S decays performed by the BaBar collaboration, and point out some of the important applications of these results.

The decay B^0 -> DK^{*0} is well-known to provide excellent potential for a precise measurement of the Unitarity Triangle angle gamma in future experiments. It is noted that the sensitivity can be significantly enhanced by studying the…
For a precise determination of the m_u and m_d quark masses, it is useful to combine isospin symmetric results of lattice or sum rules QCD techniques with some isospin breaking study performed in chiral perturbation theory (ChPT). The most…
We evaluate masses and semileptonic decay widths for the ground state of doubly heavy $\Xi$ and $\Omega$ baryons in the framework of a nonrelativistic quark model. We solve the three-body problem by means of a variational ansatz made…

The decays of $B$ mesons to two-body hadronic final states are analyzed within the context of broken flavor SU(3) symmetry, extending a previous analysis involving pairs of light pseudoscalars to decays involving one or two charmed quarks…
Under certain circumstances, a three-body decay width can be approximated by an integral involving a product of two off-shell two-body decay widths. This ``angle-average'' approximation is used to calculate the $\pi NN$ decay width of the…
Studies of D and B mesons decays into hadrons have been used to test the standard model in the last fifteen years. A heavy meson decay involves the combined effects of a primary weak vertex and subsequent hadronic final state interactions,…
Based on a sample of $1.31\times10^9$ $J/\psi$ events collected with the BESIII detector, the matrix elements for the decays $\eta^{\prime}\to\eta\pi^{+}\pi^{-}$ and $\eta^{\prime}\to\eta \pi^{0}\pi^{0}$ are determined using 351,016…
We report results of measurement of the unitarity triangle angle $\phi_3$ with $B^+\rightarrow D^{(*)}K^+$ Dalitz plot analysis and related issues with $B^0 \rightarrow D_s^{*+} \pi^-$ and $B^0 \rightarrow D_s^{*-} K^+$ decay processes. The…
The $g$, $h$, and $k$ Dalitz plot parameters, which are coefficients in a series expansion of the squared module of the matrix element $|M(u,v)|^{2} \propto 1 + gu + hu^{2} + kv^{2}$ ($u$, $v$ are invariant variables), have been measured…
We discuss the decays X^* -> Xe^+e^- (``Dalitz decays'') of excited heavy mesons into their ground states and an electron-positron pair. We argue that the measurement of the invariant mass spectrum of the lepton pair gives clear indication…
Uncertainty in the PQCD calculation of B decays is investigated in $B\to \pi$, $B\to D$ transition form factors and $B\to D\pi$ decay amplitudes. $B$ meson distributionamplitude dependence is studied by taking three kinds of distribution…
A new approach to the analysis of three body decays is presented. Model-independent results are obtained for the \swave $K\pi$ amplitude as a function of $K\pi$ invariant mass. These are compared with results from $\Km\pip$ elastic…
