Simulation studies are performed to assess the sensitivity of a model-independent analysis of the flavour-tagged decays $D^0 \to K^0_{\rm S}\pi^+\pi^-$ and $D^0 \to K^0_{\rm S}K^+K^-$ to mixing and CP violation. The analysis takes as input…
The 818 fb^-1 dataset collected at the \psi(3770) resonance in the CLEO-c detector offers unique possibilities for measuring strong-phase differences in neutral D decays. We report results for D decays to K_S pi+ pi- and K_S K+ K-. The…
We report the observation of the decay $B^{\pm} \to \phi \phi K^{\pm}$ and find evidence for $B^{0} \to \phi \phi K^{0}$. These results are based on a 414 fb$^{-1}$ data sample that contains $449 \times 10^6$ $B\bar{B}$ pairs, collected…
We review the experimental methods to measure mixing and time-dependent $C\!P$ violation in $D^0$ decays into two hadrons. While these phenomena are usually neglected for $D^0 \to K^- \pi^+$ decays, this approximation is not always…
We report a study of the suppressed $B^-\to DK^-\pi^+\pi^-$ and favored $B^-\to D\pi^-\pi^+\pi^-$ decays, where the neutral $D$ meson is detected through its decays to the $K^{\mp}\pi^{\pm}$ and CP-even $K^+K^-$ and $\pi^+\pi^-$ final…
The decays D^* -> D\pi and D^* -> D\gamma are well described by heavy meson chiral perturbation theory. With the recent measurement of Br(D^{*+} -> D^+ \gamma), the D^{*0}, D^{*+}, and D_s^* branching fractions can be used to extract the…
We study the productions of p-wave mesons $K^*_{0}(1430)$, $K_{1}(1270)$ and $K_{1}(1400)$ in B decays. By the generalized factorization approach, we find that the branching ratios of $B\to K^*_{0}(1430) \phi$ are similar to those of $B\to…
