A selection of recent results on hadronic charm and beauty decays from the CLEO experiment are presented. We report preliminary evidence for the existence of final state interactions in B decays and the first observation of the decay B0 ->…
We show that final state interactions are important in shaping Dalitz plots for the decay $D^+ \rar K^- \p^+ \p^+$. The theoretical treatment of this reaction requires a blend of several weak and hadronic processes and hence it is…
New results from the photoproduction experiment FOCUS are reported: Dalitz plot analysis, semileptonic form factor ratios and excited meson spectroscopy.
We have searched for flavor-changing neutral current decays and lepton-number-violating decays of D^+ and D^+_s mesons to final states of the form h^+- e^-+ e^+, where h is either \pi or K. We use the complete samples of CLEO-c open-charm…
I review recent measurements of the branching fractions of hadronic D^0, D^+, and D_s decays and Dalitz analyses of these and other hadronic D decay modes.
In this proceeding, I discuss results from the BaBar and Belle collaborations for searches of direct CP violation in the singly Cabibbo-suppressed decay $\D^\pm\to K^+K^-\pi^\pm$ from $e^+e^-$ annihilation data collected at a center-of-mass…
The amplitude of the Dalitz decay pi0 -> e+ e gamma is studied and its model-independent properties are discussed in detail. A calculation of radiative corrections is performed within the framework of two-flavour chiral perturbation theory,…
Precision results on the leptonic, semileptonic, and hadronic decays of charm mesons are reviewed. These results are important for timely progress in weak flavor physics both in their own right and as checks of theoretical calculations.…
Standard model mixing and CP violation are expected to be small in the charm sector. Some argue that only in the presence of new physics do we currently expect to observe these effects. Fermilab experiment E791 has the largest sample of…
We report the results of a search for flavor-changing neutral current, lepton-flavor violating, and lepton-number violating decays of D+, Ds, and D0 mesons (and their antiparticles) into modes containing muons and electrons. Using data from…
A unitary coupled-channels model is presented for investigating the decays of heavy mesons and excited meson states into three light pseudoscalar mesons. The model accounts for the three-mesons final state interactions in the decay…
A previous analysis of two-body Cabibbo allowed nonleptonic decays of $D^0$ mesons and of Cabibbo allowed and first-forbidden decays of $D^+$ and $D_s^+$ has been adjourned using more recent experimental data and extended to the Cabibbo…
LHCb has observed giant CP violation in localized regions of the Dalitz plots of B to three charmless light mesons. This has been interpreted as an enhancement due to strong two-body final state interactions. In this talk, we show how such…
Preliminary results are presented on a search for several exclusive charmless hadronic B decays, from data collected by the BABAR detector near the Upsilon(4S) resonance. These include two-body decay modes h^{+/-}h^{-/+} three-body decay…
We consider the prospect of using the charm system as a laboratory for probing new physics. The theoretical expectations for rare charm meson decays, $D^0-bar D^0$ mixing, and charm quark asymmetries in $Z$ decays are examined in the…

Using a sample of 1.8 million DDbar meson pairs collected at the psi(3770) with the CLEO-c detector, we study the semileptonic decays D^0 -> pi^- e^+ nu_e, D^+ -> pi^0 e^+ \nu_e, D^0 -> K^- e^+ \nu_e, and D^+ -> Kbar^0 e^+ nu_e. For the…

We present a summary of new experimental results on the status of the charm spectroscopy using inclusive approaches and Dalitz plot analyses of $B$ and $B_s$ decays. We also report on a new determination of the $X(3872)$ quantum numbers.
