Using a sample of 3.8 M psi(2S) events accumulated with the BES detector, the process psi(2S) -> pi^+ pi^- J/psi is studied. The angular distributions are compared with the general decay amplitude analysis of Cahn. We find that the dipion…
The values of $R = \sigma(e^+e^-\to{hadrons})/ \sigma(e^+e^-\to\mu^+\mu^-)$ for 85 center-of-mass energies between 2 and 5 GeV are reported. Preliminary results using partial wave analysis for $J/\psi$ decays to $\gamma \pi^+ \pi^-$,…
Heavy, as yet undiscovered particles, can affect measurements of CP violation in the B system. Measuring CP violation in the Bs system provides an excellent place to observe such effects since Standard Model sources are predicted to produce…

The semileptonic decays, $B_{c}{\longrightarrow}{\chi_c}(h_c)+{\ell}+{{\nu}}_{\ell}$, and the two-body nonleptonic decays, $B_{c}{\longrightarrow}{\chi_c}(h_c)+h$, (here $\chi_c$ and $h_c$ denote $(c\bar c[^3P_J])$ and $(c\bar c[^1P_1])$…
Recent results from the CLEO experiment on decays and partial widths of various bottomonium and charmonium resonances are presented. New measurements of the di-electron partial widths for the 3 bound-state Upsilons and the J/psi are…
In this invited talk I discuss two recent applications of charmonium (Psi) decays to N Nbar m final states, where N is a nucleon and m is a light meson. There are several motivations for studying these decays: 1) They are useful for the…
Vector charmonium states $J/\Psi$ and $\Psi'$ are copiously produced by $e^+e^-$ annihilations at the Beijing Electron Positron Collider (BEPC). Their decays provide an excellent place for studying excited nucleons and hyperons -- $N^*$,…
The Bc --> J/psi pi, etac pi decays are studied with the perturbative QCD approach. It is found that form factors and branching ratios are sensitive to the parameters w, v, f_J/psi and f_etac, where w and v are the parameters of the…
Using samples of 102 million $\Upsilon(1S)$ and 158 million $\Upsilon(2S)$ events collected with the Belle detector, we study exclusive hadronic decays of these two bottomonium resonances to $\ks K^+ \pi^-$ and charge-conjugate (c.c.)…
Using data accumulated with the CLEO detector corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.63 pb^-1 on the peak of the psi(2S) and 20.70 pb^-1 continuum at 3.67 GeV, we report first measurements of the branching fractions for the…
Hadronic decays of the P-wave spin-triplet charmonium states \chi_cJ (J=0,1,2) are studied using a sample of \psi(2S) decays collected by the BES detector operating at the BEPC storage ring. Branching fractions for the decays \chi_c1 going…
We review the physics of purely leptonic decays of $\pi^\pm$, $K^\pm$, $D^{\pm}$, $D_s^\pm$, and $B^\pm$ pseudoscalar mesons. The measured decay rates are related to the product of the relevant weak-interaction-based CKM matrix element of…

We study the two-body decays of mesons using the covariant helicity formalism. In particular, we show how the partial wave analysis of decays constrains the interacting terms entering the Lagrangian describing the decays of mesons with…
Decays of heavy mesons and of heavy hyperons are used to provide tests of the standard model and information about new mixing schemes for the $\eta$ and $\eta^{'}$ mesons. These include the two body decays $B_s \to J / \psi M$ and $B_d \to…
