We report the observation of charmless hadronic decays of charged B mesons to the final state K+K-pi+. Using a data sample of 347.5 fb^-1 collected at the Y(4S) resonance with the BABAR detector, we observe 429+/-43 signal events with a…
In this presentation, we discuss the recent hadronic decays of charmed mesons observed in the BESIII experiment, specifically focusing on the decay processes $D^+ \to K_S^0 \pi^+ \eta$, $D^0 \to \pi^+ \pi^- \eta$, $D^+ \to \pi^+ \pi^0…
We have searched for the decay $K^+ \to \pi^+ \nu \bar\nu$ in the kinematic region with pion momentum below the $K^+ \to \pi^+ \pi^0$ peak. One event was observed, consistent with the background estimate of $0.73\pm 0.18$. This implies an…
With the measurements of the decay $D^+_s \rightarrow K^0_S K^0_S \pi^+$ by the BESIII Collaboration, we investigate this three-body weak decay via the chiral unitary approach for the final state interaction, where the resonances $S(980)$…
In this paper we consider the decay $D^+\to\pi^+\ell^+\ell^-$, addressing in particular the resonance contributions as well as the relatively large contributions from the weak annihilation diagrams. For the weak annihilation diagrams we…
We report a study of the suppressed decays $B^- \to [K^+\pi^-]_D K^-$ and $B^- \to [K^+\pi^-]_D \pi^-$, where $[K^+\pi^-]_D$ indicates that the $K^+\pi^-$ pair originates from a neutral $D$ meson. These decay modes are sensitive to the…
Using an $e^+e^-$ annihilation data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $2.93\,\rm fb^{-1}$ collected at a center-of-mass energy of 3.773 GeV with the BESIII detector, the doubly Cabibbo-suppressed decay $D^+\to…
I present here a selection of preliminary results on charmed hadron decays from BESIII collaboration, including the study of $D^{+}\to K^{-}\pi^{+}e^{+}\nu_{e}$, the measurement of the form factors in $D^{+}\to \omega e^{+}\nu_{e}$ and the…
In this review we give a perspective of the theoretical work done recently on the interpretation of results from $B$, $D$, $\Lambda_b$, $\Lambda_c$ weak decays into final states that contain interacting hadrons, and how it is possible to…
We report the first measurement of the semileptonic decay $D^+_s \rightarrow K^*(892)^0\mu^+\nu_{\mu}$ and an improved measurement of the decay $D^+_s \rightarrow K^*(892)^0 e^+\nu_{e}$ using a sample of $7.33~\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$…
We review the physics of purely leptonic decays of $\pi^\pm$, $K^\pm$, $D^{\pm}$, $D_s^\pm$, and $B^\pm$ pseudoscalar mesons. The measured decay rates are related to the product of the relevant weak-interaction-based CKM matrix element of…
Motivated by some new experimental data, we carry out a phenomenological analysis of D --> K pi decays including both Cabibbo favored and doubly Cabibbo suppressed modes. Two asymmetries, R(D^0) and R(D+), which are generated through…
We study the decay $D^0\rightarrow \bar K^{*0} \pi^- e^+ \nu_e$, using $SU(2)_L \otimes SU(2)_R$ chiral perturbation theory for heavy charmed mesons and vector mesons, in the kinematic regime where $p_M \cdot p_\pi/m_M$ (here $M = D^0$ or…
Large $CP$-violating asymmetry effects in the B+- --> K+ K- K decays have been predicted in the QCD factorization model. The model includes strong K+ K- final-state long-distance interactions in the S-, P-, and also (in the recent analysis)…

A short review of our recent work on amplitude parametrizations of three-body hadronic weak $B$ and $D$ decays is presented. The final states are here composed of three light mesons, namely the various charge $\pi\pi\pi$, $K\pi\pi$ and…
We study the contributions of the resonant states $K_0^{*}(1430)$ and $K_0^{*}(1950)$ in the three-body decays $B\to K\pi h$ (with $h=\pi, K$) in the perturbative QCD approach. The crucial nonperturbative input $F_{K\pi}(s)$ in the…
Dalitz-plot analyses of $B\rightarrow K\pi\pi$ decays provide direct access to decay amplitudes, and thereby weak and strong phases can be disentangled by resolving the interference patterns in phase space between intermediate resonant…
