We adopt the heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory (HBChPT) to calculate the scattering lengths of $\phi B_{cc}^{(*)}$ up to $\mathcal{O}(p^3)$, where $\phi$ is the pseudoscalar mesons. The recoil effect and the mass splitting between the…
We present a theoretical framework to study open charm production in relativistic heavy-ion collisions. The coupling strength between the charm quarks and the QGP constituents, quantified by the spatial diffusion coefficient $2\pi TD_{s}$,…
We evaluate the s-wave interaction of pseudoscalar and vector mesons with both charm and beauty to investigate the possible existence of molecular $BD$, $B^*D$, $BD^*$, $B^*D^*$, $B\bar D$, $B^*\bar D$, $B\bar D^*$ or $B^* \bar D^*$ meson…
We study charmed baryon resonances which are generated dynamically within a unitary meson-baryon coupled channel model that treats the heavy pseudoscalar and vector mesons on equal footing as required by heavy-quark symmetry. It is an…
Recently, flavour $SU(3)$ symmetry of strong interactions has been combined with certain dynamical assumptions to derive triangle relations among $B$-meson decay-amplitudes. We show that these relations allow a prediction of the…
Motivated by the possible large direct CP asymmetry of \bar{B}^0_d \to D^+ D^- decay measured by Belle collaboration, we investigate double charm B_{u,d} and B_s decays in the minimal supersymmetric standard model with R-parity violation.…

We report on a direct measurement of the mixing parameter y=(3.42+-1.39+-0.74)% in the D0-D0bar system by measuring the lifetime difference between the CP mixed final state K^+pi^- and the CP even state K^+K^-. We also present a study of…
In the low energy domain, Chiral Perturbation Theory parametrizes the small chiral symmetry breaking effects, produced by the quark masses $m_u$, $m_d$ and $m_s$, in terms of order parameters of massless QCD. The latter can then, in…
We present preliminary results for light, strange and charmed pseudoscalar meson physics from simulations using four flavors of dynamical quarks with the highly improved staggered quark (HISQ) action. These simulations include lattice…
We discuss some new aspects of charm production trigerred by recent observations of the LHCb collaboration. The LHCb collaboration measured small asymmetries in production of $D^+ D^-$ mesons as well as $D_s^+ D_s^-$ mesons. Is this related…
Charmed meson resonances with quantum numbers J^P=0^+ and J^P=1^+ are generated in terms of chiral coupled-channel dynamics. At leading order in the chiral expansion a parameter-free prediction is obtained for the scattering of Goldstone…
We analyze two recent reactions of Belle, producing $D\bar D$ and $D\bar D^*$ states that have an enhancement of the invariant $D\bar D$, $D\bar D^*$ mass distribution close to threshold, from the point of view that they might be indicative…
We present a new QCD sum rule with high sensitivity to the continuum regions of charm and bottom quark pair production. Combining this sum rule with existing ones yields very stable results for the msbar quark masses, m_c(m_c)$ and m_b…
A review of recent experimental measurements of the lifetime and mixing parameters of neutral D and B hadrons is presented. In particular, focus is given to measurements of D mixing and the Lambda_B lifetime.
We evaluate the in-medium $D$ and $\bar D$-meson masses in hot hadronic matter induced by interactions with the light hadron sector described in a chiral SU(3) model. The effective Lagrangian approach is generalized to SU(4) to include…
The formulae for D^0-\bar{D}^0 or B^0-\bar{B}^0 mixing and CP violation at the \tau-charm or B-meson factories are derived, for the case that only the decay-time distribution of one D or B meson is to be measured. In particular, we point…
We discuss recent CLEO results on D0-D0bar and B0d-B0dbar mixing. The principal results are that for the D0 system, allowing for CP violations, the mixing amplitude x'<2.9% (95% C.L.), and for the B0d system, chi=0.198+-0.013+-0.014. We…
