The CLEO-c experiment, running at charm threshold, has measured many charmed meson properties. Here I summarize results on leptonic and semileptonic decays of D mesons, as well as measurements hadronic decay strong phases that are relevant…
Combining heavy quark effective theory and the chiral Lagrangian approach we investigate D meson radiative decays. First, we reanalyse $D^{*} \rightarrow D \gamma$ decays using heavy quark spin symmetry, chiral symmetry Lagrangian, but…
We present a measurement of the branching fractions for the Cabibbo-favored radiative decay, $D^{0} \to {\bar K}^{*0} \gamma$, and the Cabibbo-suppressed radiative decay, $D^{0} \to \phi \gamma$. These measurements are based on a data…
This work delves into the phenomenology of electronic inclusive decays of $D$ mesons, encompassing $D^0, D^+, D^+_s\to Xe^{+}\nu$. The theoretical formulas for the decay widths and electron energy moments of these decays are presented as…
A recent update of data on the decays of $D^0$, $D^+$, and $D_s^+$ to pairs of light pseudoscalars calls for a renewed analysis of key decay amplitudes and tests of flavor symmetry. The present data change our previous understanding of…
There are two apparent puzzles connected with the two-body and three-body doubly charmed baryonic B decays. First, earlier calculations based on QCD sum rules or the diquark model predict $Br(\bar B^0\to\Xi_c^+\bar\Lambda_c^-)\approx…
Decays of the type $B\to D hh^\prime$, where a $b$~hadron decays to a neutral charm meson that can be an admixture of $D^0$ and $\overline{D}{}^0$ states together with two light particles that are typically a kaon and a pion, have…

The LHCb experiment recorded data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 $fb^{-1}$ during its first run of data taking. These data yield the largest samples of charmed hadrons in the world and are used to search for CP violation…
The decays of the ground-state charmed baryon $\Lambda_c$ are now close to being completely mapped out. In this paper we discuss some remaining open questions, whose answers can help shed light on weak processes contributing to those…
The decays $\Lambda_b^0 \to \Lambda_c^+\bar{D}^{(*)0}K^-$ and $\Lambda_b^0 \to \Lambda_c^+ D_s^{*-}$ are observed for the first time, in proton-proton collision data at $\sqrt{s}=13$TeV corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.4…
In charged current deep inelastic scattering charm is dominantly produced in scattering events on strange quarks, thereby allowing for an experimental determination of the nucleon's strange sea density. A measurement of the energy spectrum…
We present new CDF results on the branching fractions and time-integrated direct CP asymmetries for $B^0$ and $B^0_s$ decay modes into pairs of charmless charged hadrons (pions or kaons). The data-set for this update amounts to 1…

Photoproduction of $D_s^{\pm}$ mesons has been measured in the ZEUS detector at HERA and compared with predictions of NLO pQCD calculations. The ratio of $D_s^{*\pm}$ to $D^{*\pm}$ cross sections has been compared to results from…
Lattice QCD calculations in charm and bottom physics are particularly important because they can provide the hadronic weak decay matrix elements needed for key constraints on the CKM Unitarity Triangle. I will summarise recent results in…
Charmed baryon strong decays are studied in a chiral quark model. The data for the decays of $\Lambda^+_c(2593)$, $\Lambda^+_c(2625)$, $\Sigma^{++,+,0}_c$ and $\Sigma^{+,0}_c(2520)$, are accounted for successfully, which allows to fix the…
