The decays B0 --> D*+D*-, B0 --> D*+D- and B0 --> D+D- are studied in 9.7 million Y(4S) --> BBbar decays accumulated with the CLEO detector. We determine Br(B0 --> D*+D*-) = (9.9+4.2-3.3+-1.2)e-4 and limit Br(B0 --> D*+D-) < 6.3e-4 and…
Simulation studies are performed to assess the sensitivity of a model-independent analysis of the flavour-tagged decays $D^0 \to K^0_{\rm S}\pi^+\pi^-$ and $D^0 \to K^0_{\rm S}K^+K^-$ to mixing and CP violation. The analysis takes as input…

The contribution of a $K^*(1430)$ $0^+$ resonance to $D^0\to K^-\pi^+$ is calculated by applying the soft pion theorem to $D^+ \to K^* \pi^+$, and is found to be about 30% of the measured amplitude and to be larger than the $\Delta I=3/2$…
In this work, we make a systematical study on the four-body $B_{(s)} \to (\pi\pi)(\pi\pi)$ decays in the perturbative QCD approach, where the $\pi\pi$ invariant mass spectra are dominated by the vector resonance $\rho(770)$ and the scalar…
Decays $D\to\pi^+\pi^-e^+\nu_e$ and $D_s\to\pi^+ \pi^-e^+\nu_e$ serve as probes that check the existence of constituent $q\bar q$ components in the wave functions of scalar mesons decaying into $\pi^+\pi^-$. There exists a great deal of…
