Using the CLEO-c detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring, we have measured inclusive and exclusive cross sections for the production of D+, D0 and Ds+ mesons in e+e- annihilations at thirteen center-of-mass energies between 3.97 and…
We have studied two-body charmless decays of the $B$ meson into the final states $\rho^0 \rho^0$, $K^{*0} \rho^0$, $K^{*0} K^{*0}$, $K^{*0} \bar{K^{*0}}$, $K^{*+} \rho^0$, $K^{*+} \bar{K^{*0}}$, and $K^{*+} K^{*-}$ using only decay modes…
Color-suppressed decays of $B$ mesons to final states with $\psi(2S)$ mesons have been observed with the CLEO detector. The branching fractions for the decays $B^+ \to \psi(2S) K^+$, $B^+ \to \psi(2S) K^*(892)^+$, $B^0 \to \psi(2S) K^0$,…

The latest results on chi_cJ(1P) decays from BESIII and CLEO-c are reviewed and compared to theoretical predictions. The experimental results use the final samples of chi_cJ(1P) decays from CLEO-c, obtained from 26 million psi(2S) decays,…
The Belle experiment at the KEKB asymmetric energy e+e- collider recorded large data sets of both, B and Bs decays. Semileptonic decays B(s) -> X l nu (l = electron or muon) constitute approximately one fifth of the total decay width of…
Using an inclusive method, BR(b -> D\bar{D}X) has been measured in hadronic Z^0 decays with the OPAL detector at LEP. The impact parameter significance of tracks opposite tagged b-jets is used to differentiate b -> D\bar{D}X decays from…
The search for new physics beyond the standard model is proceeding nowadays intensively along experimental and theoretical lines. We review here the sector of charm radiative decays in this context. The calculation of $D\to V\gamma$, $D\to…
Determinations of CKM matrix elements are clouded by uncertainties in nonperturbative QCD parameters that relate measurable quantities to the underlying parton-level processes. A principal goal of the CLEO-c program is to provide precision…
Belle II is an experiment designed to study billions of $\tau$-lepton, $b$- and $c$-quark decays observed with low background in asymmetric-energy electron-positron collisions at the SuperKEKB $B$-factory. In March 2019, the newly completed…
Some recent Babar results on semileptonic decays are presented. They focus on the determination of the CKM matrix elements |V_{ub}| and |V_{cb}| in inclusive and exclusive b --> u l nu and b--> c l nu decays, and on form factors measurement…
We have studied two-body charmless hadronic decays of $B$ mesons into the final states phi K and phi K^*. Using 9.7 million $B\bar{B}$ pairs collected with the CLEO II detector, we observe the decays B- -> phi K- and B0 -> phi K*0 with the…
The most sensitive method to measure the CKM angle gamma is to exploit interference in B(+/-)->DK(+/-) decays, with the D-meson decaying to a hadronic final state. The analysis of quantum-correlated decays of the psi(3770) at CLEO-c…

Moments of B -> X l nu and B -> Xs gamma decays can determine nonperturbative QCD parameters that relate the semileptonic decay width to Vcb. CLEO pioneered measurement of these moments, determined the relevant QCD parameters from the…
