Semileptonic decays of B mesons may be used in many different ways to probe the CKM matrix. Presented here are several recent results from the CLEO II experiment, all involving the analysis or utilization of semileptonic B decays.
Before it stopped data taking in 2008, CLEO had accumulated a large amount of e+e- data in the bottomonium and charmonium regions. These data have led to valuable contributions in the spectroscopy of both |ccbar> and |bbbar> quarkonia, and…
The CLEO detector is located at the CESR e+e- collider in Ithaca, NY. CLEO's wide range of experimental measurements in b-hadron decays is represented by improved measurements of Vcb and Vub, rare B decays, and bb-bar spectroscopy. New…
In this report I will present the recent results on K mesons from the KLOE experiment at the DAFNE e+e- collider working at the center of mass energy ~1GeV ~m_{phi}. They include V_{us} determinations, the test on the unitarity of the first…
The new proposed experiment CLEO-c in the Wilson Laboratory will explore the physics potential of the CLEO detector and the CESR storage ring operation in the center-of-mass energy range 3 - 5 GeV. The Physics program of CLEO-c can be…
Using a large sample (~11800 events) of D^+ into K^- pi^+ e^+ nu_e and D^+ into K^- pi^+ mu^+ nu_mu decays collected by the CLEO-c detector running at the psi(3770), we measure the helicity basis form factors free from the assumptions of…
We present a study of B decays into semileptonic final states containing charged and neutral $D_1(2420)$ and $D_2^*(2460)$. The analysis is based on a data sample of $208 fb^{-1}$ collected at the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance with the BaBar…
Recent results include the measurement of B->D(*)pi+pi-pi-pi0 decays, with rates of ~1.8% observation of a significant omega pi^- substructure that appears to result from the decay of the rho' resonance, whose mass and width we determine as…
Using 3.3 Million $B\bar B$ pairs accumulated with the CLEO detector CLEO has measured ${\cal B}(B^0\to K^+\pi^-) = (1.5^{+ 0.5}_{-0.4}\pm 0.1\pm 0.1)\times 10^{-5}$, ${\cal B}(B^+\to K^0\pi^+) = (2.3^{+1.1}_{-1.0}\pm 0.2\pm 0.2)\times…
Based on the CLEO II and II.5 data sets CLEO has observed several new rare and hadronic B decays and also updated the b->s+gamma measurement.
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…
In the light of recent experimental data from the CLEO Collaboration we study, the decays of B mesons to a pair of pseudoscalar (P) mesons, and a vector (V) meson and a pseudoscalar meson, in the framework of factorization. In order to…
We report a study of semileptonic B decays to P-wave D** mesons. Semileptonic decay to D*_2 meson is observed for the first time and its product branching ratio is measured to be Br(B+ -> anti-D*0_2 l+nu) x Br(anti-D*0_2 -> D- pi+) = 0.22…
At CLEO, charmonium spectroscopy is pursued both thorugh e+e- annihilation data taken in the Upsilon region and more recently at psi(2S). A nmber of first observations (eta_c', h_c, pi and K form factors) have been made, and numerous high…
Using a sample of 3.3 million B-meson decays collected with the CLEO detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring, we have studied $B^- \to D^0 \ell\nu$ and $\bar{B}^0 \to D^+ \ell\nu$ decays, where $\ell$ can be either an electron or…
Based on $(106.41 \pm 0.86)\times 10^{6}$ $\psi(3686)$ events collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, the branching fractions of $\psi(3686) \to \pi^+\pi^- J/\psi$, $J/\psi \to e^+e^- $, and $J/\psi \to \mu^+\mu^-$ are…
