We present a systematic survey of possible short-distance new-physics effects in (semi)leptonic charged- and neutral-current charmed meson decays. Using the Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT) to analyze the most relevant…
BESIII has recently accumulated a large data sample near the $\psi(3770)$ production threshold corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $20\text{ fb}^{-1}$. Neutral $D^0\bar{D}^0$ pairs produced at the $\psi(3770)$ are in a $C$-odd…
A large amount of data on hadronic two body weak decays of anti-triplet charmed baryons $T_{c\bar 3}$ to an octet baryon $T_8$ and an octet or singlet pseudoscalar meson $P$, $T_{c \bar 3} \to T_8 P$, have been measured. The SU(3) flavor…
Non-leptonic charm decays provide insights into both electro-weak and strong dynamics. This includes the study of long-distance hadronic effects, the approximate symmetries of strong interactions, and precision tests of the Standard Model.…
We report the results of a blind search for flavor-changing neutral current, lepton-flavor violating, and lepton-number violating decays of D+, D(s)+, and D0 mesons (and their antiparticles) into modes containing muons and electrons. Using…
We obtain tree-level estimates of various differential branching ratios of heavy baryon decays with massive sterile neutrinos $\nu_{x}$ in the final state. Heavy sterile neutrinos can be searched for in heavy baryon decays with missing mass…

Charmed baryon strong decays are studied in a chiral quark model. The data for the decays of $\Lambda^+_c(2593)$, $\Lambda^+_c(2625)$, $\Sigma^{++,+,0}_c$ and $\Sigma^{+,0}_c(2520)$, are accounted for successfully, which allows to fix the…
We review the experimental measurements and theoretical descriptions of leptonic and semileptonic decays of particles containing a single heavy quark, either charm or bottom. Measurements of bottom semileptonic decays are used to determine…
We report the results of a search for flavor-changing neutral current, lepton-flavor, and lepton-number violating decays of the 3 and 4-body decay modes of D0 (and its antiparticle) containing muons and electrons. Using data from Fermilab…
We estimate coupling constants for effective Lagrangians of $D$-meson, charmed, and light baryons from charmed baryon decay processes. First, we calculate decay widths for the processes $\Lambda_{c} \to DN$, $\Sigma_{c} \to D \Delta$,…

Two recently discovered excited charm baryons are studied within the framework of Heavy Hadron Chiral Perturbation Theory. We interpret these new baryons which lie $308 \MeV$ and $340 \MeV$ above the $\Lambda_c$ as $I=0$ members of a P-wave…
We study the singly charmed baryon two-body decays of $\mathbf{B}_c \rightarrow \mathbf{B}_D P$ under $SU(3)_{F}$ flavor symmetry, where ${\bf B}_{c}$ refers to anti-triplet singly charmed baryons, and ${\bf B}_{D}$ and $P$ denote decuplet…

Charm and bottom baryons and mesons are studied within the framework of a relativistically covariant 3D reduction of the Bethe-Salpeter equation. We carry out an analysis of semileptonic decays of heavy hadrons within this framework using…
