We study the possibility that the $Z^+(4430)$ state observed by Belle is a $D_1D^*$ (or $D_1'D^*$) resonance in S-wave. Focusing on its decays, We find that the open-charm decay into $D^*D^*\pi$ is dominant. Furthermore, we use the…

We search for the process $B^0 \to \pi^- \tau^+ \nu_\tau$ using the full Belle data set of $711\,{\rm fb}^{-1}$, corresponding to $772 \times 10^6 B\bar{B}$ pairs, collected at the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance with the Belle detector at the…

Using J/psi -> mu^+ mu^- decays from a sample of approximately 4 million psi(2S) events collected with the BESI detector, the branching fractions of psi(2S) -> eta J/psi, pi^0 pi^0 J/psi, and anything J/psi normalized to that of psi(2S) ->…

We report a search for the decays B- -> K+ pi- pi- and B- -> K- K- pi+, which are highly suppressed in the Standard Model. Using a sample of (467 +/- 5) x 10^6 BBbar pairs collected with the BaBar detector, we do not see any evidence of…

Recent LHCb's amplitude analysis on $B^+\to J/\psi \phi K^+$ suggests the existence of exotic $X$ and $Z_{cs}$ hadrons, based on an assumption that Breit-Wigner resonances describe all the peak structures. However, all the peaks and also…

We report an improved measurement of the partial-rate CP asymmetry in B+ => K0pi+ and B- => K0bar pi- decays. The analysis is based on a data sample of 85 million BBbar pairs collected at the Upsilon(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at…

The observation of the $Y(4140)$ structure in $B^\pm\rightarrow J/\psi\,\phi K^\pm$ decays produced in $\bar{p} p $ collisions at $\sqrt{s}=1.96~\TeV$ is reported with a statistical significance greater than 5 standard deviations. A fit to…

We present updated measurements of the CP-violating parameters S_pipi and C_pipi in B0 -> pi+pi- decays. Using a sample of 227 million Y(4S) -> BBbar decays collected with the BaBar detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy e+e- collider at…

Using 58 million J/psi decays obtained by BESII, a charged kappa particle is observed in the analysis of the Kspi+- system recoiling against K*(892)-+ selected in J/psi -> KsKspi+pi-. The mass and width values of the charged kappa are…

We report a measurement of the branching fraction for the leptonic decay $B^+\to\mu^+\nu_\mu$. This work presents the first $B^+\to\mu^+\nu_\mu$ result using Belle~II data, an updated Belle measurement that supersedes the previous result,…

We report on a comparison of two possible $\Lambda_c^+$ spin hypotheses, $J=\frac{1}{2}$ and $\frac{3}{2}$, via the process $e^+e^-\to\Lambda_c^+\bar\Lambda_c^-$, using the angular distributions of $\Lambda_c^+$ decays into $pK_S^0$,…

New Focus data on Dplus -> Kminus piplus piminus are fitted to the kappa, together with earlier data from LASS, E791 and BES 2. There is a clear low mass K-pi peak due to the kappa pole. Inclusion of the I=3/2 K-pi amplitude gives only a…

Several years ago, it was pointed out that the U-spin-related decays $B_d\to\pi^+\pi^-$, $B_s\to K^+K^-$ and $B_d\to\pi^\mp K^\pm$, $B_s\to \pi^\pm K^\mp$ offer interesting strategies for the extraction of the angle gamma of the unitarity…

Since its discovery in 1977, the spin-parity of $\Xi(2030)$ has not been fully determined experimentally. The latest Particle Data Group (PDG) listing suggests it may be a baryon with $J=5/2$. Therefore, studying the mass spectrum and decay…
