A measurement of the rate for the "wrong-sign" decay D0 -> K+ pi- pi+ pi- relative to that for the "right-sign" decay D0 -> K- pi+ pi+ pi- is presented. Using 791 fb-1 of data collected with the Belle detector, we obtain a branching…
LHCb observes the $B^+_c \to D^0 K^+$ decay with $R_{D^0 K} = f_c/f_u \times {\cal B}(B^+_c \to D^0 K^+)=(9.3^{+2.8}_{-2.5} \pm 0.6)\times 10^{-7}$. The corresponding branching ratio (BR) of the decay can be estimated as ${\cal B}(B^+_c \to…
The decay K_L -> pi0 gamma e+ e- occurs at a it higher rate than the nonradiative process K_L -> pi0 e+ e-, and hence can be a background to CP violation studies using the latter reaction. It also has an interest in its own right in the…
We perform a Dalitz plot analysis of D^+ -> K^-pi^+pi^+ decay with the CLEO-c data set of 572 pb^-1 of e^+e^- collisions accumulated at the psi(3770). This corresponds to 1.6 million D^+D^- pairs from which we select 140793 candidate events…

We report the first observation of the doubly Cabibbo-suppressed decay $D^+_s\to K^+K^+\pi^-$ using 605 fb$^{-1}$ of data collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+e^-$ collider. The branching ratio with respect to…
We have searched for the decay $K^+ \to \pi^+ \nu \bar\nu$ in the kinematic region with pion momentum below the $K^+ \to \pi^+ \pi^0$ peak. One event was observed, consistent with the background estimate of $0.73\pm 0.18$. This implies an…

We study both CP conserving and violating contributions to the decay $K_L\to\pi^+\pi^-\nu\bar{\nu}$. We find that the decay branching ratio is dominated by the CP conserving part. In the standard CKM model, we estimate that for $m_t\sim…
