The study of Dalitz plots of heavy-meson decays to multi-hadron final states has received intensified interest by the possibility to gain access to precision investigations of CP violation. A thorough understanding of the hadronic…
The strength of final state interaction (FSI) between struck proton and spectator neutron in $^2\vec{H}(e,e'p)$ scattering depends on the alignment of the deuteron. We study the resulting FSI effects in the tensor analyzing power in detail…
We evaluate the non-resonant decay amplitude of the process $B^\pm\to K^\pm\pi^+ \pi^-$ using an approach based on final state hadronic interactions described in terms of meson exchanges. We conclude that this mechanism generates…
In this paper the decay of $B^+_c$ meson, consisting of two b and c heavy quarks, into the $D^0$ and $K^+$ mesons is studied. Given that the experimental branching ratio for this decay is within the range of $3.72\times 10^{-5}$ to…
We study final-state interactions in nonleptonic weak decays in statistical models by averaging over ensembles of strong interaction S-matrices. The models range from one with completely random strong interactions, which gives extensive…
We explore the contribution of hadronic final state interactions (FSI) to propose a production mechanism and interpret the puzzle on helicity angle distributions in $B^+\to p\bar p \pi^+$ and $B^+\to p\bar p K^+$ decays. Experimental…
We review recent advances in the theory of strong-interaction effects and final-state interactions in hadronic weak decays of heavy mesons. In the heavy-quark limit, the amplitudes for most nonleptonic, two-body B decays can be calculated…
A short review of our recent work on amplitude parametrizations of three-body hadronic weak $B$ and $D$ decays is presented. The final states are here composed of three light mesons, namely the various charge $\pi\pi\pi$, $K\pi\pi$ and…
Two competing models for strong hadronic decays, the $^3P_0$ and $^3S_1$ models, are currently in use. Attempts to rule out one or the other have been hindered by a poor understanding of final state interactions and by ambiguities in the…
Hadron resonances affect nonexotic $D^o$ decays but not $B$ decays which are far from the resonance region. We obtain new information from {\bf exclusive} decays and show that interference between colour favoured and colour suppressed…
We analyze the contribution of pionic final state interactions (FSI) in the weak decay of the hypertriton. Focusing on the $^3$He channel, we find a contribution of the pionic FSI of the order of $18\%$. Assuming a fixed value for the…
The chromo-polarizability of a quarkonium state is a measure of the amplitude of the $E1$-$E1$ chromo-electric interaction of the quarkonium with soft gluon fields and can be measured in the heavy quarkonium decays. Based on the chiral…
The kaons decays to the pairs of charged and neutral pions are considered in the framework of the non-relativistic quantum mechanics. The general expressions for the decay amplitudes to the two different channels accounting for the strong…

The decays $\bar{B}\to \bar{K}D$ and $\bar{B}\to \bar{K}\bar{D}$ taking into account final state interactions are discussed. These decays are described by four strong phases $\delta_0, \delta_1, \tilde{\delta}_0, \tilde{\delta}_1$…
We quantify the important effect of strong final state interactions in the weak $K\to2\pi$ amplitudes, using the measured $\pi$--$\pi$ phase shifts with J=0 and $I=0,2$. The final rescattering of the two pions provides a strong enhancement…
The recent measurements of the color-suppressed modes $\bar B^0\to D^{(*)0}\pi^0$ imply non-vanishing relative final-state interaction (FSI) phases among various $\bar B\to D\pi$ decay amplitudes. Depending on whether or not FSIs are…
We provide succinct covariant amplitude decompositions of 2-body weak hadronic decays, with which to compare data, including exclusive rates, helicity amplitudes and polarizations. For weak decays, the systematic dependence of these…
In this review we give a perspective of the theoretical work done recently on the interpretation of results from $B$, $D$, $\Lambda_b$, $\Lambda_c$ weak decays into final states that contain interacting hadrons, and how it is possible to…
The final state interaction contribution to $D^+$ decays is computed for the $K^-\pi^+\pi^+$ channel within a light-front relativistic three-body model for the final state interaction. The rescattering process between the kaon and two pions…
