Using $448.0 \times 10^6$~$\psi(3686)$ events collected with the BESIII detector, an amplitude analysis is performed for $\psi(3686)\to\gamma\chi_{c1}$, $\chi_{c1}\to\eta\pi^+\pi^-$ decays. The most dominant two-body structure observed is…
Using 281 fb^-1 of data from the Belle experiment recorded at or near the Upsilon(4S) resonance, we have measured the rates of the ``wrong-sign'' decays D0 -> K+ pi- pi0 and D0 -> K+ pi- pi+ pi- relative to those of the Cabibbo-favored…
We present a study of the decays B^{+-} --> D K^{+-} with D mesons reconstructed in the K+pi-pi0 or K-pi+pi0 final states, where D indicates a D0 or a anti-D0 meson. Using a sample of 474 million BBbar pairs collected with the BaBar…
Using the CLEO-c detector and a data sample of 0.8 million D+D- pairs at the Psi(3770) a search has been performed for flavor changing neutral current and lepton number violating decays of D+ mesons to final states with dielectrons. No…
We perform a Dalitz plot analysis of the decay Ds to K+K-pi+ with the CLEO-c data set of 586/pb of e+e- collisions accumulated at sqrt(s) = 4.17 GeV. This corresponds to about 0.57 million D_s+D_s(*)- pairs from which we select 14400…
Recent semileptonic D meson decay results are summarized, including the improved measurements of absolute branching fractions for exclusive D0 semileptonic decays into $K^{-}e^{+}\nu$, $\pi^{-}e^{+}\nu$ and $K^{*-}e^{+}\nu$, and the first…
The $K_S \to 3 \pi^0$ decay is a pure CP violating process which, assuming CPT invariance, allows one to investigate direct CP violation. This decay has not been observed so far, and the best upper limit on the branching ratio $BR(K_S to…
A Dalitz-plot analysis of Bd(t) -> rho pi -> pi+ pi- pi0 decays allows one to obtain the CP-violating phase \alpha. In addition, one can extract the various tree (T) and penguin (P) amplitudes contributing to these decays. By comparing the…
We propose a phenomenological two component model describing the decay amplitude of the process $D_s^{+} \ra 3 \pi$, whose rate has been found surprisingly large. The first component is a constant background $F_{NR}$, and the second one is…
We report updated measurements of indirect and direct CP asymmetry in decays $D^0 \to K^+K^-,\pi^+\pi^-$ and a new measurement of direct and indirect CP asymmetry in decays $D^0 \to \pi^0\pi^0$, using the full data sample of the Belle…
We present an observation and rate measurement of the decay D0 -> K+pi-pi0 produced in 9/fb of e+e- collisions near the Upsilon(4S) resonance. The signal is inconsistent with an upward fluctuation of the background by 4.9 standard…
We present a phenomenological description of the LHCb data for the magnitudes and phases of the $\pi^-\pi^+$ $S$-wave amplitudes in the $D^+\to\pi^-\pi^+\pi^+$ and $D^+_s\to\pi^-\pi^+\pi^+$ decays. We operate within a simple model that…
It is proposed to compute matrix elements for the (unphysical) $K^0\pi^-\to \pi^-$ transition to determine the next-to-leading order low energy constants of the weak chiral Lagrangian. This allows us to evaluate $K\to(\pi\pi)_{I=0}$ decay…
In these proceedings some facts about resonances are discussed focussing on the analytic properties of resonant amplitudes with special emphasis on model independent analyses. As an illustrative example of the latter point the decays B and…
We report the results of a study of charged B decays to the D+- pi-+ pi-+ and D*+- pi-+ pi-+ final states using complete D(*) reconstruction. The contributions of two-body B => D** pi decays with narrow (j=3/2) and broad (j=1/2) D** states…
We investigate the decays $D^0\to\pi^-\ell^+\nu$ and $D^0\to K^-\ell^+ \nu$, where $\ell$ is $e$ or $\mu$, using approximately 7 ${\rm fb}^{-1}$ of data collected with the CLEO III detector. We find $R_0\equiv {\cal B}(D^0\to…
Quantum-correlated $D\bar{D}$ pairs collected by the BESIII experiment at the $\psi(3770)$ resonance, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.93 fb$^{-1}$, are used to study the $D^0 \rightarrow K^{0}_S\pi^{+} \pi^{-} \pi^{0}$ decay…
We construct hadronic amplitudes for the three-body decays $\eta^{(\prime)}\to\pi^+\pi^-\pi^0$ and $\eta'\to\eta\pi^+\pi^-$ in a non-perturbative fashion, allowing for $C$- and $CP$-violating asymmetries in the $\pi^+\pi^-$ distributions.…

The decay mode B -> rho pi is currently studied as a channel allowing, in principle, to measure without ambiguities the angle alpha of the unitarity triangle. It is also investigated by the CLEO Collaboration where a branching ratio larger…
