Experiment E04-113 at Jefferson Lab Hall C plans to measure the beam-target double-spin asymmetries in semi-inclusive deep-inelastic $\vec p(e, e^\prime h)X$ and $\vec d(e, e^\prime h)X$ reactions ($h=\pi^+, \pi^-, K^+$ or$K^-$) with a 6…

We report the first observation of a near-threshold enhancement in the $D^0\bar{D}^0\pi^0$ system from $B \to D^0\bar{D}^0\pi^0 K$ decays using a 414 $\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ data sample collected at the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance. The enhancement…

We carry out a systematic flavor SU(3) analysis of D-meson decays including the leading order symmetry breaking effects. We find that SU(3) breaking can easily account for the recent LHCb measurement of the difference in CP asymmetries in…

We provide results for the open-flavor strong decays of open-charm ($D$ and $D_{\rm s}$) and open-bottom ($B$, $B_{\rm s}$ and $B_{\rm c}$) mesons. The decays are calculated in a modified version of the $^3P_0$ pair-creation model, assuming…

We identify a new spin-flavor entanglement structure in $\Lambda_b\to\Lambda D$ decays, formed by the correlation between the $\Lambda$ spin and the $D$ flavor states ($D=D^0,\overline D^0,D_1,D_2$). The entanglement information is encoded…

An analysis of B0->D K*0 decays is presented, where D represents an admixture of D0 and D0b mesons reconstructed in four separate final states: K-pi+, pi-K+, K+K- and pi+pi-. The data sample corresponds to 3.0fb-1 of proton-proton…

Inspired by the potential prospects of high-luminosity dedicated colliders and the high enthusiasms in searching for new physics in the flavor sector at the intensity frontier, the ${\Upsilon}(1S)$ ${\to}$ $D^{-}{\pi}^{+}$,…

We provide updated predictions for the hadronic decays $\bar{B}_s^0\to D_s^{(*)+} \pi^-$ and $\bar{B}^0\to D^{(*)+} K^-$. They are based on $\mathcal{O}(\alpha_s^2)$ results for the QCD factorization amplitudes at leading power and on…

In this paper, recent STAR heavy flavor measurements in proton-proton and heavy-ion collisions are highlighted. We report studies of open charm mesons, reconstructed directly from hadronic decay products, and studies of electrons from…

Using 226 million $B\bar{B}$ events recorded on the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance with the BABAR detector at the SLAC $e^+e^-$ storage rings PEPII, we reconstruct $B^-\to D^{*0} e^-\bar\nu_e$ decays using the decay chain $D^{*0}\to{}D^0{}\pi^0$…

Amplitude models are constructed to describe the resonance structure of ${D^{0}\to K^{-}\pi^{+}\pi^{+}\pi^{-}}$ and ${D^{0} \to K^{+}\pi^{-}\pi^{-}\pi^{+}}$ decays using $pp$ collision data collected at centre-of-mass energies of 7 and 8…

We present a study of resonances in exclusive decays of $B$ mesons to $\bar{D}^{(*)} D^{(*)} K$. We report the observation of the decays $B \to \Dbar^{(*)} D^+_{s1}(2536)$ where the $D^+_{s1}(2536)$ is reconstructed in the $D^{*0}K^+$ and…

The final-state phases in $\bar{B} \to D \pi, D^* \pi$, and $D \rho$ decays appear to follow a pattern similar to those in $D \to \bar{K} \pi$, $\bar{K}^* \pi$, and $\bar{K} \rho$ decays. Each set of processes is characterized by three…

In this contribution, we discuss the results of a QM calculation of the open-flavor strong decays of **** light nucleon resonances. These are the results of a recent calculation, where we used a modified $^3P_0$ model for the amplitudes and…

Isospin and flavor SU(3) set stringent bounds on penguin pollution in $B^0(t)\to \rho^+\rho^-$, providing a theoretically precise determination of $\alpha\equiv \phi_2 $, $\alpha = (91\pm 7_{\rm exp}\pm 3_{\rm th})^\circ$. Isospin breaking…

I review recent measurements of the branching fractions of hadronic D^0, D^+, and D_s decays and Dalitz analyses of these and other hadronic D decay modes.

The open-flavor strong decays are studied based on the interaction of potential quark model. The decay process is related to the s-channel contribution of the same scalar confinment and one-gluon-exchange(OGE) interaction in the quark…

We present a search for the ``wrong-sign'' decay D0 -> K+ pi- pi+ pi- using 9 fb-1 of e+e- collisions on and just below the Upsilon(4S) resonance. This decay can occur either through a doubly Cabibbo-suppressed process or through mixing to…

The 3-loop heavy flavor corrections to deep-inelastic scattering are essential for consistent next-to-next-to-leading order QCD analyses. We report on the present status of the calculation of these corrections at large virtualities $Q^2$.…

We report the first observation of the decay B^0->D+-D*-+ with the Belle detector at the KEKB e^+e^- collider operated at the Upsilon(4S) resonance. The sum of branching fractions B(B^0->D+D*-)+B(B^0->D-D*+) is measured to be…
