We review here the physics of purely leptonic decays of pi-, K-, D+, Ds+, and B- pseudoscalar mesons. The measured decay rates are related to the product of the relevant weak interaction based CKM matrix element of the constituent quarks…
We present a theoretical study of $a_0(1710)$, the isovector partner of $f_0(1710)$, in the process $D^+_s \to \pi^+ K^0_SK^0_S$. The weak interaction part proceeds through the charm quark decay process: $c(\bar{s}) \to (s + \bar{d} +…
We perform quantum-correlated measurements of the decay $D \to K^{0}_{\rm S}\pi^{+}\pi^{-}\pi^{0}$ using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 0.82 fb$^{-1}$ collected at the $\psi(3770)$ resonance by the CLEO-c…
We develop a model to reproduce the mass distributions of pairs of mesons in the Cabibbo-suppressed $D^+_s \to K^+ \pi^+ \pi^-$ decay. The largest contributions to the process comes from the $D^+_s \to K^+ \rho^0$ and $D^+_s \to K^{*0}…
Inspired by the invariant mass distributions for the decays $D^{0} \rightarrow K_S^{0} \pi^{0} \eta$ and $D^{0} \rightarrow K_S^{0} \pi^{0} \pi^{0}$ reported by the BESIII Collaboration, we investigate these processes with an unified final…
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 report the observation of the doubly Cabibbo-suppressed decay $D^+\to K^+ \pi^- \pi^+$ in data from Fermilab charm hadroproduction experiment E791. With a signal of 59 \pm 13 events we measured the ratio of the branching fraction for…
A search for $D^0$ meson decays to the $\pi^+\pi^-e^+e^-$ and $K^+K^-e^+e^-$ final states is reported using a sample of proton-proton collisions collected by the LHCb experiment at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, corresponding to an…
We review the experimental methods to measure mixing and time-dependent $C\!P$ violation in $D^0$ decays into two hadrons. While these phenomena are usually neglected for $D^0 \to K^- \pi^+$ decays, this approximation is not always…
Hadronic phase in $\pi \pi$ and $K \bar K$ channels are calculated a la Regge. At the D mass one finds $\delta_{\pi \pi} \approx \pi/3$ and $\delta_{K \bar K} \approx -\pi/6$ in good agreement with the CLEO data while at the B mass these…
We study the $D^{*}_s \bar D^*$ system in connection with the $J/\psi K^*$ in coupled channels and observe that, within reasonable values of the cut-off used to regularize the loops, the system does not develop a bound state. However, the…
We report the first observation of the doubly Cabibbo-suppressed decay $D^+_s\to K^+K^+\pi^-$ using 605 fb$^{-1}$ of data collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+e^-$ collider. The branching ratio with respect to…
We propose a phenomenological three component model describing the decay amplitude of the process $D_{s}^{+} \ra 3\pi$. The first component is a constant background, the second one is a Breit-Wigner amplitude associated to a quasi two-body…
We propose a model for $D^+ \to \pi^+ \pi^- \pi^+$ decays following experimental results which indicate that the two-pion interaction in the $S$-wave is dominated by the scalar resonances $f_0(600)/\sigma$ and $f_0(980)$. The weak decay…
Using $e^+e^-$ data taken at the center-of-mass energy of 3.773 GeV with the BESIII detector, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 20.3 fb$^{-1}$, we report the first measurement of the decay dynamics of the semileptonic decays…
The final state interaction (FSI) contribution to charged $D$ decay into $K\pi\pi$ is computed within a light-front framework, considering $S$-wave $K\pi$ interactions in $1/2$ and $3/2$ isospin states. The convergence of the rescattering…

We study the quasi-two-body decays $B\to D K^*(892) \to D K\pi$ by employing the perturbative QCD approach. The two-meson distribution amplitudes $\Phi_{K\pi}^{\text{$P$-wave}}$ are adopted to describe the final state interactions of the…
