The rare decay B0 -> gamma gamma is searched for in 104 fb^-1 of data, corresponding to 111 x 10^6 BBar pairs, collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e+ e- collider. No evidence for the signal is found, and an upper…
We present preliminary results of improved measurements of the CP-violating asymmetries and branching fractions in the decays B0 -> pi+ pi-, B0 -> K+ pi-, B0 -> pi0 pi0, and B0 -> K0 pi0. This update includes all data taken at the Y(4S)…
Fermilab experiment E835 has observed proton-antiproton annihilation production of the charmonium state chi_c0 and its subsequent decay into pi^0 pi^0. Although the resonant amplitude is an order of magnitude smaller than that of the…
In this write-up, we summarize our recent analysis of radiative decays involving light scalar mesons. Our analysis using the vector meson dominance model at tree level indicates that it may be difficult to distinguish $qq\bar{q}\bar{q}$…

Using the CLEOIII detector at CESR, we have measured the branching ratio of the decay Xic0 to pK-K-pi+ relative to Xic0 to Xi- pi+. We find B(Xic0 to pK-K-pi+)/B(Xic0 to Xi-pi+)= 0.35+/-$0.08(stat)+/-0.05(syst). In the resonant substructure…
We consider the decay K^0 (K^0 bar) -> pi^+ pi^- e^+ e^- of a neutral K meson prepared in a state of strangeness +1 (-1). The time evolution of the state produces remarkable time-dependent effects in the angular distribution of the pi^+…
The radiative decays D^0 -> K^0(bar) P^0 gamma with nonresonant K^0(bar) P^0 (P^0 = pi^0, eta, eta') are considered within the framework which combines heavy quark effective theory and the chiral Lagrangian. Due to neutral mesons the…
We search for the $B^0\to p\bar{\Sigma}^0\pi^-$ decay with $\bar{\Sigma}^0 \to \bar{\Lambda}\gamma$, where the $\gamma$ is not measured, using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 711 $\rm{fb^{-1}}$ which contains 772…
A sample of 3984 candidates of the $K^+\to\pi^+\gamma\gamma$ decay, with an estimated background of $291\pm14$ events, was collected by the NA62 experiment at CERN during 2017-2018. In order to describe the observed di-photon mass spectrum,…

A quark model calculation of the processes gamma gamma -> pi+ pi- and gamma gamma -> pi0 pi0 is performed. At tree level, only charged pions couple to the initial state photons and neutral pions are not expected in the final state. However,…
We report on the first observation of the decay KL -> pi0 ee gamma by the KTeV E799 experiment at Fermilab. Based upon a sample of 48 events with an estimated background of 3.6 +/- 1.1 events, we measure the KL -> pi0 ee gamma branching…
