The observed strong phase difference of 30^{o} between I=(3/2) and I=(1/2) final states for the decay B to D Pi is analyzed in terms of rescattering like D^{∗}Pi to D Pi, etc. It is concluded that for the decay B^{o}to D^{+} Pi^{-}…
The final-state phases in $\bar{B} \to D \pi, D^* \pi$, and $D \rho$ decays appear to follow a pattern similar to those in $D \to \bar{K} \pi$, $\bar{K}^* \pi$, and $\bar{K} \rho$ decays. Each set of processes is characterized by three…
Motivated by some new experimental data, we carry out a phenomenological analysis of D --> K pi decays including both Cabibbo favored and doubly Cabibbo suppressed modes. Two asymmetries, R(D^0) and R(D+), which are generated through…
The scattering amplitude of D Pi at the energy of the B mass can be calculated using Regge theory. Recent papers have used this to calculate the final state strong phases in the decays B to D Pi. It is argued that while the Regge amplitude…
Assuming SU(3) symmetry for the strong phases in the four decay modes $B\rarrow \pi^-\pi^+, \pi^0 \pi^+, \pi^- K^+, \pi^- \bar{K}^0$ and ignoring the relative small electroweak penguin effects in those decays, the weak phase $\gamma$ and…
We present a general analysis on charmless B-meson decays $B\to \pi\pi$ and $\pi K$. It is noticed that the final state interactions and inelastic rescattering effects must be significant in order to understand the consistency of the…
We analyze the decay processes B \to DK, DK^*, D\pi, and D\rho in a model-independent way. Using the quark diagram approach, we determine the magnitudes of the relevant amplitudes and the relative strong phase shifts. In order to find the…
We study $D \to \pi\pi$ decays with final state interactions considered in one-particle-exchange method. A clear physical picture for final state interactions based on quark and hadronic level diagrams is presented. A strong phase is…
The first observation of the color-suppressed decay mode \bar{B}^0_d --> D^(*)0 \pi^0 by the Belle and CLEO Collaborations makes a quantitative analysis of the isospin relations for the amplitudes of B --> D^(*)\pi possible. The strong…
We study quasi-elastic rescattering effects in B_{u,d,s}(bar) to DP, D(bar)P decays, where P is a light pseudoscalar. The updated measurements of B_{u,d}(bar) to DP decays are used to extract the effective Wilson coefficients a^{eff}_1 ~…
The sign of $A_{\rm CP}(K^-\pi^+) < 0$, the evidence for $\bar B^0 \to \pi^0\pi^0$, and the possibly sizable $A_{\pi\pi}$ and $S_{\pi\pi}$ in $\bar B^0 \to \pi^+\pi^-$ all suggest that final state rescattering may be needed in $\bar B\to…
By use of current experimental data, we carry out an isospin analysis of the weak decays $B\rightarrow D\pi, D^{*}\pi$ and $D\rho$. It is found that only in $B\rightarrow D\rho$ the strong phase shift of two different isospin amplitudes can…
We show that both the weak phase \beta and the strong phase \delta_d can be determined from the time-dependent measurement of B_d -> D^{*\pm} D^{\mp} decays, whose final states are non-CP eigenstates. It is also possible to extract \beta…
Using rotation in SU(3) space, a set of relations between various decay modes of B_{d} and B_{s} are derived. The decays bar{B}_{d}^{0}-> K^{*-}pi ^{+}(rho ^{+}K^{-}), bar{B}_{s}^{0}-> K^{*-}K^{+} are expressed in terms of decay parameters…
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…
In this paper, I report the preliminary results of the strong phase difference $\cos\delta_{K\pi}$ between the doubly Cabibbo-suppressed process $\overline{D}{}^0\to K^- \pi^+$ and Cabibbo-favored $D^0\to K^- \pi^+$ at BESIII. In addition,…
An attempt is made to identify circumstances under which the weak decays of $D$ and $B$ mesons may display large differences between eigenphases of strong final-state interactions. There are several cases in which rescattering from other…
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.…

CP-violating signals in weak $ \Xi\to \pi \Lambda$ decay require the knowledge of $\pi \Lambda$ $S$- and $P$-wave scattering phases at ${m}_{\Xi}$ center-of-mass energy. We have calculated these phases in baryon chiral perturbation theory…
