We study CP violation and the contribution of the strong kaon-pion interactions in the three body B --> K pi+ pi- decays. We extend our recent work on the effect of the two-pion S- and P-wave interactions to that of the corresponding…
The recent observation of B^0_d->\pi^0\pi^0 and \bar{B}^0_d->\pi^0\pi^0 decay modes allows us to make a fresh isospin analysis of B->\pi\pi transitions. We find that current experimental data can impose some model-independent constraints on…
We study the decay modes of B_{s}^{0}(\bar{B}_{s}^{0})-->D_{s}^{\pm} K^{\mp}, B_{s}^{0}(\bar{B}_{s}^{0})-->D^{\pm} \pi^{\mp} and B^{0}(\bar{B}^{0})-->D^{\pm} \pi^{\mp} in the perterbative QCD approach based on k_T factorization, including…
In this work, we systematically study the OZI-allowed two-body strong decay properties of $1P$- and $1D$-wave $\Sigma_c$ baryons within the $j $-$j$ coupling scheme in the framework of the quark pair creation model. For a comparison, we…
Determination of the CP-violating parameters \sin 2\beta and \sin 2\beta' is shown to be possible from B^0_d vs \bar{B}^0_d \to D^{*+}D^{*-} and B^0_s vs \bar{B}^0_s \to D^{*+}_sD^{*-}_s decays {\it without} doing the angular analysis. The…
We present preliminary results of several analyses searching for the effects of CP violation and mixing in the decay of D0 mesons. We find no evidence of CP asymmetry in five different two-body decay modes of the D0 to pairs of light…
The $s-$wave meson-baryon scattering is analyzed for the strangeness S=0 sector in a Bethe-Salpeter coupled channel formalism incorporating Chiral Symmetry. Four channels have been considered: $\pi N$, $\eta N$, $K \Lambda$, $K \Sigma$. The…
Motivated by the recent 3.9$\sigma$ evidence for CP violation from the LHCb collaboration in decays of an anti-triplet beauty baryon to a charmonium, an octet baryon, and a pseudoscalar meson, we perform, for the first time, a systematic…
It is a long-standing puzzle why the {\it CP} violation (CPV) in the baryon system has not yet been definitively established as in the meson one. We demonstrate that individual partial-wave CPV in the $\Lambda_b\to p\pi^-$ and $pK^-$ decays…
We develop a generalized version of heavy-baryon chiral perturbation theory to describe pion-nucleon scattering in a kinematic domain that extends continuously from threshold to the delta-isobar peak. The $P$-wave phase shifts are used to…
Lattice QCD studies of hadron-hadron interactions are performed by computing the energy levels of the system in a finite box. The shifts in energy levels proportional to inverse powers of the volume are related to scattering parameters in a…
CP violation in the charm sector is highly sensitive to new physics due to its small predicted value within the standard model. By this work, we investigated the CP violation in the cascade decay process $D^0(t_1) \to \pi^0 K(t_2) \to…
We propose a new method to extract the CP violating weak phase $\gamma$ (the phase of $V_{ub}^*$) in the CKM paradigm of the Standard Model, using $B^- \rightarrow D^0 \pi^- \rightarrow f \pi^-$ and $B^- \rightarrow \bar D^0 \pi^-…
The scattering lengths of the pi Sigma systems are key quantities in understanding the structure of the Lambda(1405) resonance and the subthreshold extrapolation of the barK N interaction. We demonstrate that the pi Sigma scattering lengths…
In this proceeding, results of searches for CP violation in charm decays using the full BABAR dataset are discussed. The parameter $A_{CP}$ in the decay $D^\pm\to\KS\pi^\pm$ is determined to be $(-0.39 \pm 0.13 \pm 0.10)%$. Meaurements of…
A difference of several tenths of a percent has been observed between the direct CP asymmetries of $D^0\to K^+K^-$ and $D^0\to \pi^+\pi^-$. It has been noted recently that CP asymmetries in such singly-Cabibbo-suppressed (SCS) decays can…
The abundant $\psi'$ events have been collected at the Beijing Electron Positron Collider-II (BEPCII) that could undoubtedly provide us with a great opportunity to study the more attractive charmonium decays. As has been noticed before, in…
CP violation from physics beyond the Standard Model is investigated in $B_{l4}$ decays: $B\to D\pi l\bar{\nu}_l$. The semileptonic $B$-meson decay to a $D$-meson with an emission of single pion is analyzed with heavy quark effective theory…
Non-leptonic two-body weak decays of baryons are an important tool to probe the combined charge-conjugation--parity symmetry (CP) violation. We explain why the decays of strange baryons provide complementary information to the decays of…
A first study of CP violation in the decay modes $B^\pm\to [K^0_{\rm S} K^\pm \pi^\mp]_D h^\pm$ and $B^\pm\to [K^0_{\rm S} K^\mp \pi^\pm]_D h^\pm$, where $h$ labels a $K$ or $\pi$ meson and $D$ labels a $D^0$ or $\overline{D}^0$ meson, is…
