In this work, we study the semileptonic decay modes $B_s^0\to \pi^+\pi^-\ell^+\ell^-$ and $D_s^+\to \pi^+\pi^-\ell^+ \nu$ in the kinematics region where the $\pi^+\pi^-$ system has a invariant mass in the range $0.5$-$1.3$ GeV. These…
The current knowledge on the $D_{s}^{\ast}$ meson are very limited. Besides the dominant electromagnetic decays, the $D_{s}^{\ast}$ weak decays are legal and offer the valuable opportunities to explore the wanted $D_{s}^{\ast}$ meson. In…
In perturbative QCD approach, we study the direct $CP$ violation in the decay of $\bar{B}_s^0\to\rho(\omega )\phi\to {\pi^+}{\pi^-}\phi$ via isospin symmetry breaking. An interesting mechanism involving the charge symmetry violating between…
The first attempt is made to provide a quantitative theoretical interpretation of the WASA-at-COSY experimental data on the basic double-pion production reactions $pn \to d \pi^0\pi^0$ and $pn \to d \pi^+\pi^-$ in the energy region $T_p =1$…
In an attempt to explain the latest experimental result about the branching ratio of $\omega\to \pi^0\pi^0\gamma$ decay we reexamine the decay mechanism of this decay in a phenomenological framework in which the contributions of VMD, chiral…
We evaluate the model-dependent piece of O(alpha) long-distance radiative corrections to tau^- \to \pi^- \pi^0\nu_{\tau} decays by using a meson dominance model. We find that these corrections to the di-pion invariant mass spectrum are…
In this talk I give a short introduction to hard pion Chiral Perturbation Theory and an overview of the available applications $K\to\pi\pi$, $B,D\to D,\pi,K,\eta$ semileptonic decays and $\chi_{c0,2}\to\pi\pi,KK$. It is pointed out that the…
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…
An enhanced phenomenological model that includes isospin-symmetry breaking is presented in this letter. The model is then used in a number of statistical fits to the most recent experimental data for the radiative transitions $V\!P\gamma$…
Using $2.93\,\rm fb^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ collision data collected at a center-of-mass energy of 3.773\,GeV with the BESIII detector, we present a measurement of the branching fraction of the doubly Cabibbo-suppressed (DCS) decay $D^0\to…
The \tau \to \omega,\phi \pi^- \nu_\tau decays of the \tau lepton are studied using the method of phenomenological SU(3) * SU(3) chiral Lagrangians. It is shown that the obtained value for the \tau \to \phi \pi \nu_\tau decay probability is…
We improve the calculations of the $\eta \to \pi^0 \gamma \gamma$ decay within the context of meson chiral lagrangians. We use a chiral unitary approach for the meson-meson interaction, thus generating the $a_0(980)$ resonance and fixing…
We calculate the direct $CP$ violation for the decay process of ${B}^{0}\rightarrow \pi^{0}\pi^{0}$, ${B}^{+}\rightarrow \pi^{0}\pi^{+}$, ${B}^{0}\rightarrow K^{0}\pi^{0}$ and ${B}^{+}\rightarrow K^{+}\pi^{0}$ via isospin symmetry breaking…
We propose a phenomenological two component model describing the decay amplitude of the process $D_s^{+} \ra 3 \pi$, whose rate has been found surprisingly large. The first component is a constant background $F_{NR}$, and the second one is…
I summarize the results of the complete one--loop chiral perturbation theory calculation performed recently. It is shown that it allows to accurately pin down the isospin two, S--wave $\pi \pi$ scattering length $a_0^2$. On the other hand,…
We present preliminary results of several analyses searching for the effects of CP violation and mixing in the decay of $D^0$ mesons. We find no evidence of CP asymmetry in five different two-body decay modes of the $D^0$ to pairs of light…
We report on the observation of B-> D(*) pi+ pi- pi- pi^o decays. The branching ratios for D*+ and D*o are (1.72+/-0.14+/-0.24)% and (1.80+/-0.24+/-0.27)%, respectively. Each final state has a D* omega pi- component, with branching ratios…
The branching ratios of the measured decay $K_L\to\pi^+\pi^-e^+e^-$ and of the still unmeasured decay $K^+\to\pi^+\pi^0e^+e^-$ are calculated to next-to-leading order in Chiral Perturbation Theory (CHPT). Recent experimental results are…
