Between 1990 and 2001, the CLEO II/II.V/III detectors at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring (CESR) have recorded over of 34 million B decays and nearly 60 million charm decays. A selection of the latest results in the electroweak sector from…
Using 3.1 fb$^{-1}$ of data accumulated at the $\Upsilon$(4S) by the CLEO-II detector, corresponding to 3.3 million $B\bar{B}$ pairs, we have searched for the color-suppressed $B$ hadronic decay processes: $\bar{B}^0 \to D^0 (D^{*0}) X^0$,…
