The mixing between nonstrange and strange quark wavefunctions in the $\omega$ and $\phi$ mesons leads to a small predicted branching ratio $\b(D_s^+ \to \omega e^+ \nu_e) = {\cal O}(10^{-4})(\delta/3.34^\circ)^2$, where $\delta$ is the…
The decay width of the $\omega$ meson at finite temperature is calculated using the Gell-Mann Sharp Wagner model of $\rho$ pole dominance. Effective masses of the $\rho$ and $\omega$ are determined within the framework of real-time…
A high statistics data sample of the decays of $K^+$ mesons to three charged particles was accumulated by the OKA experiment in 2012 and 2013. This allowed to select a clean sample of about 450 events with…
We report on the observation of B0bar -> D*0 pi+ pi+ pi- pi- decays. The branching ratio is (0.30 +/- 0.07 +/- 0.06)%. Interest in this particular mode was sparked by Ligeti, Luke and Wise who propose it as a way to check the validity of…
The arguments are put forward that the many pion decays omega ->2 pi^+ 2 pi^- pi^0 and pi^+ pi^- 3 pi^0 provide an ideal test site for testing the predictions of chiral models of the vector meson decays into many pions. Using the approach…
We calculate the branching ratio of the non-resonant $B \to D^- \pi^+\pi^+\pi^- $ decay using a simple model based on the framework of the factorization approach. In naive factorization approach, there are only tow tree diagrams for this…
We study the nonresonant three-body decays of $B^{+}\to D^{(*)-}_{s} K^{+} \pi^{+}$ and $B_{d}\to D_{s}^{(*)-} K^{0} \pi^{+}$. We find that these decays can provide the information on the time-like form factors of $D^{(*)}_{s} K$. We also…
Some atomic decays of elementary particles with pionium ($\pi^+\pi^-$-dimesoatom) in the final state are considered. Only for K-meson atomic decays are the corresponding branching ratios big enough to make their experimental study…
Two body decays of B mesons are studied by decomposing their amplitude into a sum of factorizable and non-factorizable ones. The former is estimated by using a naive factorization while the latter is assumed to be dominated by dynamical…
The first observation of the $D^0 \to \pi^+\pi^-\mu^+\mu^-$ and $D^0 \to K^+K^-\mu^+\mu^-$ decays is reported using a sample of proton-proton collisions collected by LHCb at a center-of-mass energy of 8$\,$TeV, and corresponding to…
The measurements of psi(2S) -> omega pi0 and psi(2S) -> pi+ pi- in e+e- experiments are examined. It is found that the non-resonance virtual photon annihilation gives large contributions to the observed cross sections of these two…
A new approach to the analysis of three body decays is presented. Measurements of the S-wave K pi amplitude are made in independent ranges of invariant mass from threshold up to the upper kinematic limit in D+ to K-pi+pi+ decays. These are…
The decay rates and spectroscopy of the $D$ and $D_s$ mesons are computed in a nonrelativistic phenomenological quark-antiquark potential of the type $V(r)=-{4/3}\frac{\alpha_s}{r}+A r^{\nu}$ with different choices of $\nu$. Numerical…
We report the first observation of the decay B^0->D+-D*-+ with the Belle detector at the KEKB e^+e^- collider operated at the Upsilon(4S) resonance. The sum of branching fractions B(B^0->D+D*-)+B(B^0->D-D*+) is measured to be…
The resonant substructure of the decay $D^{0} \rightarrow \pi^{+} \pi^{-} \pi^{+} \pi^{-}$ is studied by performing a full five-dimensional amplitude analysis. Preliminary results based on data collected by the CLEO-c detector are…
We report the first observation of a number of decay modes of the B meson, namely $B^0 \to D^{*-} (5\pi)^+$, $B^+ \to D^{*-} (4\pi)^{++}$ and $B^+ \to \bar{D}^{*0} (5\pi)^+$, where $(n\pi)$ implies the combination of n charged pions. The…
The low-energy S-wave component of the decay $D^+ \to K^- \pi^+ \pi^+$ is studied by means of a chiral SU(3)XSU(3) effective theory. As far as the primary vertex is concerned, we allow for the possibility of either direct production of…
