$B$ flavor tagging will be extensively studied at the asymmetric $B$ factories due to its importance in CP asymmetry measurements. The primary tagging modes are the semileptonic decays of the $b$ (lepton tag), or the hadronic $b \to c (\to…
We present a measurement of the time-dependent $CP$ asymmetry in $B^0 \to K_{\rm S}^0 \: \pi^{+} \pi^{-} \gamma$ decays using a data set of 365 fb$^{-1}$ recorded by the Belle II experiment and the final data set of 711 fb$^{-1}$ recorded…
We present the first measurement of $\Upsilon(4S)$ decays to $\pi^+pi^-\Upsilon(1S)$ and $\pi^+pi^-\Upsilon(2S)$ based on a sample of 230$\times10^6$ $\Upsilon(4S)$ mesons collected with the BABAR detector. We measure the product branching…
The CMS collaboration has reported a measurement of $\Upsilon$ decays to ditaus using $61.9~{\rm fb}^{-1}$ of scouting data. If interpreted as the decay of $\Upsilon(1S,2S,3S)$, the measured ditau rate is more than ten times that seen in…
We propose a new method for measuring the CKM phase gamma using the partial rates for CP-tagged Bs decays. Such an experiment could be performed at a very high luminosity symmetric e+e- collider operating at the Upsilon(5S) resonance, where…
