The study of Dalitz plots of heavy-meson decays to multi-hadron final states has received intensified interest by the possibility to gain access to precision investigations of CP violation. A thorough understanding of the hadronic…
By using very general and well established features of soft strong interactions we show, contrary to conventional expectations, that (i) soft final state interactions (FSI) do not disappear for large $m_B$, (ii) inelastic rescattering is…
We analyze the contribution of pionic final state interactions (FSI) in the weak decay of the hypertriton. Focusing on the $^3$He channel, we find a contribution of the pionic FSI of the order of $18\%$. Assuming a fixed value for the…
We have calculated the finite-frequency current noise of a superconductor-ferromagnet quantum point contact (SF QPC). This signal is qualitatively affected by the spin-dependence of interfacial phase shifts (SDIPS) acquired by electrons…
For coupled channels $D^0K^+$, $D^+K^0$, $D_s^+\eta$, and $D_s^+\pi^0$, the $S$-wave scattering amplitudes are constructed taking into account the mixing of the isoscalar resonance $D^*_{s0}(2317)^+$ with nonresonance amplitudes with…
We investigate the low-energy interactions between the charmonium state $J/\psi$ and the light pseudoscalar mesons ($\pi$ and $K$) within the framework of dispersion relations.We demonstrate that the symmetry-breaking terms in the chiral…
Pion-kaon ($\pi K$) pairs occur frequently as final states in heavy-particle decays. A consistent treatment of $\pi K$ scattering and production amplitudes over a wide energy range is therefore mandatory for multiple applications: in…
Charged B decays to three charged kaons are analysed in the framework of the QCD factorization approach. The strong final state K+K-interactions are described using the kaon scalar and vector form factors. The scalar non-strange and strange…
We briefly review the recent results obtained by Fermilab experiment E791 on the Dalitz plot analysis of the decay D+ -> K- pi+ pi+, where indication for a light Kpi scalar resonance, the kappa, was found. We also present preliminary…
Motivated by the resent BESIII Collaboration measurements of the process $D^+\to\pi^+\eta\eta$, we investigate this process by considering the contribution from the resonance $a_0(980)$, which is generated by $S$-wave pseudoscalar…
A new approach to the analysis of three body decays is presented. Model-independent results are obtained for the \swave $K\pi$ amplitude as a function of $K\pi$ invariant mass. These are compared with results from $\Km\pip$ elastic…
We study the excitation spectrum of light and strange mesons in diffractive scattering. We identify different hadron resonances through partial wave analysis, which inherently relies on analysis models. Besides statistical uncertainties,…
We attempt to understand the final-state interaction in the two-body nonleptonic decay of a heavy particle for which many multibody decay channels are also open. No matter how many multibody channels couple to the two-body channels, the…
We develop a model to study the $D^0 \to K^- \pi^+ \eta$ weak decay, starting with the color favored external emission and Cabibbo favored mode at the quark level. A less favored internal emission decay mode is also studied as a source of…
This work presents the results of a revised analysis of the low-energy (pion laboratory kinetic energy T(sub pi) < 100 MeV) pi+ p data using recently obtained electromagnetic corrections. The measurements are analyzed assuming extended…
We present a calculation of the direct CP asymmetry, $A_{CP}^{dir}$, for the process $B^+ \to \pi^+ K^0$ including the effects of long-range inelastic final-state interactions (FSI). We admit three channels in our calculation: $B^+ \to…
Present status of the study of the low energy $\pi\pi$ interaction is reviewed, including the recent results on reactions $\pi N \to\pi\pi N$ near threshold. Current experimental values of s-wave $\pi\pi$ scattering lengths are compared…
We propose to study the $a_0(980)$ and the $\Lambda(1670)$ resonances in the $\Lambda^+_c \to \pi^+ \eta \Lambda$ decay via the final state interactions of the $\pi^+ \eta$ and $\eta \Lambda$ pairs. The weak interaction part proceeds…
The BaBar collaboration has recently reported the observation of the decay mode $B^-\to D_s^+ K^- \pi^-$. We investigate the role played by the $D^{\star\star}$ resonances in this decay mode using HQET. Although these resonances cannot…
We perform the first amplitude analysis of $D^+_s \to \pi^+\pi^+\pi^-\pi^0$ decays, based on data samples of electron-positron collisions recorded with the BESIII detector at center-of-mass energies between 4.128 and 4.226~GeV,…
