To write a review on charm decays is not an easy task because of the large amount (fortunately!) of experimental results in the recent years. I was forced to make a selection of topics. I am going to discuss with the eyes of an…

The measurement of $\sin {2\beta}$ from $B_d \to J/\psi K_s$ does not resolve the discrete ambiguities in the angle $\beta$. A measurement of $\cos {2\beta}$ is therefore desirable.This talk is about measuring the CKM angle $\beta(\phi_1)$…

I review some recent results on hadronic decays of charmed mesons. These decays illuminate a wide range of physics, including the absolute normalizations of b and c decays, the understanding of D^0 mixing, the coupling of heavy mesons to…

The sensitivity of the CKM angle $\gamma$ in $\Lambda_b^0 \to D \Lambda$ decays has been studied using the decay parameter $\alpha$ as an observable in addition to the decay rate asymmetry. Feasibility studies show that adding this…

The LHCb approach for a precise determination of the CKM angle $\gamma$ from tree--level decays is presented. Up to 16 independent determinations, using a variety of beauty and charm mesons decay modes, are available at LHCb. Not all of…

B decays in and beyond the standard model are reviewed. I specifically discuss right-handed B decays, rare B decays, B_c decays, B_s-B_s(bar) mixing, and T violation. (Plenary talk given at the `Workshop on B Physics at Hadron…

The first observations of $B^0\rightarrow\overline{D}^{*}(2007)^{0}K^{+}\pi^{-}$ and $B_s^0\rightarrow\overline{D}^{*}(2007)^{0}K^{-}\pi^{+}$ decays are presented, and their branching fractions relative to that of the…

the KM expectations of large CP asymmetries in $B$ decays are reviewed. I describe some observable signatures for the intervention of New Physics and list benchmarks defining the `ultimate' measurements in beauty physics. I also stress the…

We present recent results of B and charm decays from the BaBar experiment. These results include searches for rare or forbidden charm decays, measurements of $|V_{ub}|$ from inclusive ${\bar B} \rightarrow X_u l {\bar \nu} $ decays,…

Measurements of CKM elements and $CP$-violating observables are sensitive to revealing effects beyond the SM. These proceedings discuss four recent LHCb results. The first one presents $CP$ violation measurements in $B^0_s$ decays.…

In these lectures I review what has been learned from studies of b-quark decays, including semileptonic decays ($V_{ub}$ and $V_{cb}$), $B^o-\overline{B}^o$ mixing and rare B decays. Then a discussion on CP violation follows, which leads to…

We describe two complementary ways to show the presence of higher order effects in the 1/m_Q expansion for inclusive B decays that have been dubbed "Intrinsic Charm". Apart from the lessons they can teach us about QCD's nonperturbative…

In this proceeding I present the latest result by the LHCb collaboration in determining the CKM angle $\gamma$ ($(73^{+9}_{-10})^{\circ}$). The result is determined by combining several $B \to Dh$ analyses, and the latest results from the…

Angular distributions of a B meson decaying into two vector mesons are discussed with emphasis on time evolution effects on the complete set of amplitude bilinears. Time integrated quantities are suggested to observe substantial CP…

Theoretical aspects of rare $B$ decays are reviewed. The focus is on the relation between short-distance interactions and physical observables. It is argued that there remain significant uncertainties in the theoretical treatment of certain…
