We consider the impact of R-parity violating suprsymmetry in the nonleptonic decay B --> pi+ pi-. This is one of the rare instances where new physics contributes to both B-Bbar mixing and B --> pi+ pi- decay. We do a numerical analysis to…
An amplitude analysis of ${B^0\to (\pi^+\pi^-) (K^+\pi^-)}$ decays is performed in the two-body invariant mass regions ${300 < m(\pi^+\pi^-)<1100}$ MeV/$c^2$, accounting for the $\rho^0$, $\omega$, $f_0(500)$, $f_0(980)$ and $f_0(1370)$…

The measurement of CP asymmetries in charged B meson decays might provide the first demonstration of CP violation outside the K system. Among the usual three CP-odd phases $\alpha$, $\beta$ and $\gamma$, the phase $\gamma$ seems to be the…
In this paper, we study the Cabibbo favored three body non-leptonic D^+ \rightarrow K^- \pi^+ \pi^+ decay. We show that the corresponding direct CP asymmetry is so tiny in the framework of the Standard Model and is out of the experimental…
Decay rates of the B-meson are studied through charmless and strangless transitions into pi, rho, omega and gamma systems. The important features of these modes are their clean signatures. The CLEO II collaboration has recently reported the…
I propose an alternative method for measuring the $CP$ violating phase $\phi_2$ ($\alpha$) without ambiguity in an extended SU(2) isospin triangle analysis, which can ultimately be achieved by exploiting interference effects between $B^0…
We investigate the branching ratios and CP asymmetries of the B -> pi pi processes measured in B factory experiments. Fits to the experimental data of this process indicate a large ratio of color-suppressed (C) to color-allowed (T) tree…
We carry out a $U$-spin symmetry analysis for CP violation in $B^- $ decays into three light $\pi^-\pi^-\pi^+$, $\pi^- K^-K^+$, $K^-K^-K^+$ and $K^- \pi^-\pi^+$ mesons. We clarify some subtle points in constructing decay amplitudes with…

The phases of terms of amplitude that arise from the $\pi\pi$ interaction are obtained by using a simple realistic model of $\pi\pi$ interaction via virtual $\rho$-meson, instead of the ChPT. It is shown that the standard ChPT approach…
The direct CP asymmetry in the weak decay process of hadrons is commonly attributed to the weak phase of the CKM matrix and the indeterminate strong phase. We propose a way of creating a strong phase difference between two decay paths…
