A method parametrizing all inelastic final state interactions (FSI) in $B\to PP$ decays is presented ($P$ - pseudoscalar meson). The method explicitly shows how rescattering leads to the replacement of the short-distance amplitudes with the…
The recent measurements of the color-suppressed modes $\bar B^0\to D^{(*)0}\pi^0$ imply non-vanishing relative final-state interaction (FSI) phases among various $\bar B\to D\pi$ decay amplitudes. Depending on whether or not FSIs are…
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…
We study CP violation and the contribution of the strong pion-pion interactions in the three-body B+- --> pi+- pi-+ pi+- decays within a quasi two-body QCD factorization approach. The short distance interaction amplitude is calculated in…
We explore the role of final-state interactions (FSI) in inclusive deep-inelastic scattering from the deuteron. Relating the inclusive cross section to the deuteron forward virtual Compton scattering amplitude, a general formula for the FSI…
The $\sigma$ resonance was observed as a conspicuous $\pi^+\pi^-$ peak in hadronic decays like $J/\psi\to \pi^+\pi^-\omega$ or $D^+\to\pi^+\pi^-\pi^+$. The phase of the $\sigma\to\pi^+\pi^-$ amplitude, extracted from production data within…
Motivated by recent lattice QCD studies, we explore the effects of interactions on strangeness fluctuations in strongly interacting matter at finite temperature. We focus on S-wave $K\pi$ scattering and discuss the role of the $K_0^*(800)$…
We present the first lattice QCD study of coupled isoscalar $\pi\pi,K\overline{K},\eta\eta$ $S$- and $D$-wave scattering extracted from discrete finite-volume spectra computed on lattices which have a value of the quark mass corresponding…
We present a quantitative demonstration that, without additional theoretical and experimental efforts, realistic variations in final-state-interaction (FSI) modeling may alter reconstructed neutrino-energy spectra at next-generation…
We explore the contribution of hadronic final state interactions (FSI) to propose a production mechanism and interpret the puzzle on helicity angle distributions in $B^+\to p\bar p \pi^+$ and $B^+\to p\bar p K^+$ decays. Experimental…
Dispersive effects from strong $\pi\pi$ rescattering in the final state (FSI) of weak $K\to\pi\pi$ decays are revisited with the goal to have a global view on their {\it relative} importance for the $\Delta I=1/2$ rule and the ratio…
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…
I discuss the effect of final state interactions on the determination of the CKM angle \gamma from B -> K + pi decays. Using a simple Regge-based model for rescattering processes, I argue that such effects could be substantial enough to…
Hadron resonances affect nonexotic $D^o$ decays but not $B$ decays which are far from the resonance region. We obtain new information from {\bf exclusive} decays and show that interference between colour favoured and colour suppressed…
A simple Regge pole model for $K\pi$ scattering explains the large $e^{i \delta}$ between isospin amplitudes which is observed at the D meson mass ($\delta \approx \pi/2$). It predicts $\delta \approx 14^{\circ}- 20^{\circ}$ at the B mass.…
The color-suppressed \bar B^0-> D^{(*)0}\pi^0, D^{(*)0}\eta, D^0\omega decay modes have just been observed for the first time. The rates are all larger than expected, hinting at the presence of final state interactions. Considering \bar…
I give a brief review of final state interactions in meson decays. I describe possible effects of FSI in K, D and B systems, paying particular attention to the description of the heavy meson decays. Available theoretical methods for dealing…
In the theory of deep inelastic scattering (DIS) the final state interaction (FSI) between the struck quark and the remnants of the target is usually assumed to be negligible in the Bjorken limit. This assumption, still awaiting a full…
The $D^+ \to K^-\pi^+\pi+$ decay have been observed in LHCb collaboration with thousands of events per second from $K\pi$ threshold. The theoretical treatment of this decay includes a rich dynamic behaviour that mix weak and strong…
It has been long-understood that final state rescattering effects provide $\mathcal{O}(1)$ corrections to hadronic meson decays rates, such as $\eta\to\pi\pi\pi$ and $\eta^{\prime}\to\eta\pi\pi$. Hence, one would expect that such effects…
