We review recent advances in the theory of strong-interaction effects and final-state interactions in hadronic weak decays of heavy mesons. In the heavy-quark limit, the amplitudes for most nonleptonic, two-body B decays can be calculated…
In the framework of precision experiments, the search for electric dipole moments and the precise determination of magnetic dipole moments (g-2) have since long been of prime interest. Hadronic decays offer the best accuracy, since only the…
We have studied two-body charmless hadronic decays of B mesons into the final states $\pi\pi$, $K \pi$, and $KK$. Using 3.3 million $B\bar{B}$ pairs collected with the CLEO-II detector, we have made the first observation of the decays…

CP violation from physics beyond the Standard Model is investigated in $B_{l4}$ decays: $B\to D\pi l\bar{\nu}_l$. The semileptonic $B$-meson decay to a $D$-meson with an emission of single pion is analyzed with heavy quark effective theory…
