In this master thesis I discuss how the weak three-body decay B^+ --> pi^- pi^+ K^+ is related to the strong interactions between the final-state particles. Current issues in hadron spectroscopy define a region of interest in a Dalitz plot…
We calculate the decay of pionium atoms into two photons. The pion polarizability gives rise to a 10% correction to the corresponding decay width for pointlike pions. This opens the possibility to obtain the difference between the electric…

We map the phase diagram of gauge theories of fundamental interactions in the flavor-temperature plane using chiral perturbation theory to estimate the relation between the pion decaying constant and the critical temperature above which…

I discuss CLEO-c opportunities in Dalitz plot analyzes with the data samples available now and projected by the end of CESR-c run. Using 281 pb$^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ collisions at mass of $\psi(3770)$ we present results of the Dalitz plot…
The resonant substructures of $B^0 \to \overline{D}^0 \pi^+\pi^-$ decays are studied with the Dalitz plot technique. In this study a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 fb$^{-1}$ of $pp$ collisions collected by the…
Based on $(10087 \pm 44)\times10^6$ $J/\psi$ events collected with the BESIII detector at BEPCII, the double Dalitz decay $\eta'\to e^+e^-e^+e^-$ is observed for the first time via the $J/\psi\to\gamma\eta'$ decay process. The significance…

A review of recent experimental results of Dalitz analyses of charmed meson decays into three-body final states is presented. These analyses can help in understanding the strong interaction dynamics leading to the observed light mesons…
We show that final state interactions are important in shaping Dalitz plots for the decay $D^+ \rar K^- \p^+ \p^+$. The theoretical treatment of this reaction requires a blend of several weak and hadronic processes and hence it is…
The extrapolation of the decay amplitudes of the pseudoscalar mesons into two photons from the soft meson limit where it is obtained from the axial-anomaly to the mass shell involves the contribution of the 0^ - continuum. These chiral…
Using 586 $\textrm{pb}^{-1}$ of $e^{+}e^{-}$ collision data acquired at $\sqrt{s}=4.170$ GeV with the CLEO-c detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring, we report the first observation of $D_{s}^{*+} \to D_{s}^{+} e^{+} e^{-}$ with a…
A chiral field theory of mesons has been applied to study the contribution of the current quark masses to the $\pi^0\rightarrow\gamma\gamma$ decay width at the next leading order. $2\%$ enhancement has been predicted and there is no new…
The first observation of the decay K^+ --> pi^+ gamma gamma is reported. A total of 31 events was observed with an estimated background of 5.1 +- 3.3 events in the pi+ momentum range from 100 MeV/c to 180 MeV/c. The corresponding partial…
We study the possible distortion of phase-space in the decays $K \to \pi \pi \pi$, which may result from final state interference among the decay products. Such distortion may influence the values of slope parameters extracted from the…
We investigate the double Dalitz decays $B_s \to l^+ l^- l'^+ l'^-$ on the basis of the effective Hamiltonian for the transition $b \bar{s} \to l^+ l^-$, and universal form factors suggested by QCD. The correlated mass spectrum of the two…
We use one-loop chiral perturbation theory (ChPT) to compare lattice results for the K+ to pi+ pi0 decay amplitude with the experimental value. Three systematic effects: quenching, finite-volume effects, and the use of unphysical values of…
We present a complete analysis of K -> 3 pi gamma decays to O(p^4) in the low-energy expansion of the Standard Model. We employ the notion of "generalized bremsstrahlung" to take full advantage of experimental information on the…
