I briefly describe the use of the three-body decay modes $B^0 \to D^{(*)-} D^{(*)0} K^+$ to investigate open issues in charmed meson spectroscopy, and of the time dependent $B^0 (\bar {B^0}) (t) \to D^{-} D^{+} \pi^0$ transitions for a…
We present a four-body semileptonic charm decay D^+ into K^-pi^+mu^+nu analysis in the range of 0.65 GeV/c^2 < mkpi < 1.5 GeV/c^2. We observe a low mass scalar contribution of 5.30 +- 0.74 + 0.99 - 0.96 % with respect to the total D^+ into…
