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…
Rare decays of $B$ mesons to radiative final states serve as an ideal ground to search for New Physics effects from short range contributions. Observed by CLEO in the early 1990s as one of the first transitions of the electroweak penguin…

Beta-delayed proton emission may occur at very low rates in the decays of the light nuclei $^{11}$Be and $^8$B. This paper explores the potential physical significance of such decays, estimates their rates and reports on first attempts to…
We study the charmless two-body decays of $b$-baryons $(\Lambda_b$, $\Xi_b^-$, $\Xi_b^0)$. We find that ${\cal B}(\Xi_b^-\to \Lambda \rho^-)=(2.08^{+0.69}_{-0.51})\times 10^{-6}$ and ${\cal B}(\Xi_b^0\to \Sigma^+…

Future asymmetric e+e- --> Upsilon(4S) B factories are being constructed to search for CP violation in B0 decays. It is hoped that a CP asymmetry may be observed in B0-B0bar mixing in analogy with that found in neutral kaons. In this mixing…
