We have studied hadronic four-body decays of $D^+$ and $D^+_s$ mesons with a $K_S$ in the final state using data recorded during the 1996-1997 fixed-target run at Fermilab high energy photoproduction experiment FOCUS. We report a new…

We calculate the predicted width for the radiative decay of a $1^{++}$ heavy meson via the channel $1^{++} \to 1^{--} +\gamma$ in the covariant light-front quark model. Specifically, we compute the decay widths for $\chi_{c1}(1P) \to J/\psi…

We discuss radiative transitions $D_{s1}\rightarrow D_s\gamma$ and $D_{s1}\rightarrow D_s^*\gamma$ of $p$-wave mesons. Since $D_{s1}$ mesons have no a certain $C$-parity, and the masses of quarks in these mesons differ significantly, then…
