I discuss low energy aspects of heavy meson decays, where there is at least one heavy meson in the final state. Examples are $B -\bar{B}$ mixing, $B \to D \bar{D}$, $B \to D \eta'$, and $B \to D \gamma$. %and $B \to D W $ (Isgur-Wise…
We report on a study of $B$ mesons decaying into one of the narrow P-wave charm resonances, $D_2^{*}(2460)^{0}$ and $D_1(2420)^0$. Our preliminary results are based on 89 million \BB pairs collected with the \babar detector at the PEP-II…
We study the nine possible rare charm meson decays D->Pl^+l^- (P=pi,K,eta,eta') using the Heavy Meson Chiral Lagrangians and find them to be dominated by the long distance contributions. The decay D^+ -> pi^+l^+l^- with the branching ratio…
The decays D^* -> D\pi and D^* -> D\gamma are well described by heavy meson chiral perturbation theory. With the recent measurement of Br(D^{*+} -> D^+ \gamma), the D^{*0}, D^{*+}, and D_s^* branching fractions can be used to extract the…
