In the recent literature, constraints on the CKM angle $\gamma$ arising from the branching ratios for $B^\pm\to\pi^\pm K$ and $B_d\to\pi^\mp K^\pm$ decays received a lot of attention. An important theoretical limitation of the accuracy of…
We present a consistent analysis of final state interactions in ${K\rightarrow 3\pi}$ decays in the framework of Chiral Perturbation Theory. The result is that the kinematical dependence of the rescattering phases cannot be neglected. The…
A short overview of recent progress in describing kaon and pion decays within Chiral Perturbation Theory is presented. Particular attention is devoted to the issues of final-state interactions and isospin breaking in $K \to 2 \pi$, as well…
We present a general parametrization of $B^\pm\to\pi^\pm K, \pi^0K^\pm$ and $B_d\to\pi^0 K, \pi^\mp K^\pm$ decays, taking into account both electroweak penguin and rescattering effects. This formalism allows -- among other things -- an…
The time-dependent CP asymmetry in exclusive B^0(t) -> K^{*0}\gamma decays has been proposed as a probe of new physics in B decays. Recently, this method was extended to radiative decays into multibody hadronic final states such as B^0(t)->…
Coupled-channel final-state-interaction effects for D and B weak decays into \pi \pi and K \bar{K} are discussed in a Regge framework. It is found that the inclusion of coupled-channel effects significantly affects the results obtained…
Final state interactions are considered to formulate the $B$ meson decay amplitude for the $K\pi\pi$ channel. The Faddeev decomposition of the Bethe-Salpeter equation is used in order to build a relativistic three-body model within the…
An analysis of B0->D K*0 decays is presented, where D represents an admixture of D0 and D0b mesons reconstructed in four separate final states: K-pi+, pi-K+, K+K- and pi+pi-. The data sample corresponds to 3.0fb-1 of proton-proton…
We analyse $D$ decays to two pseudoscalars $(\pi,K)$ assuming the dominant source of $\mathrm{SU}(3)_F$ breaking lies in final state interactions. We obtain an excellent agreement with experimental data and are able to predict CP violation…
The ratio of partial decay rates for charged and neutral $B$ mesons to $K \pi$ final states provides information on the weak phase $\gamma \equiv {\rm Arg} (V_{ub}^*)$ when augmented with information on the CP-violating asymmetry in the…
Using rotation in SU(3) space, a set of relations between various decay modes of B_{d} and B_{s} are derived. The decays bar{B}_{d}^{0}-> K^{*-}pi ^{+}(rho ^{+}K^{-}), bar{B}_{s}^{0}-> K^{*-}K^{+} are expressed in terms of decay parameters…
Over the last two decades, $B \to \pi K$ modes have received a lot of attention. They are particularly interesting since the main contribution to these decays comes from QCD penguin topologies. Furthermore, electroweak penguin amplitudes…
We describe possible kaon physics goals to achieve with a high luminosity phi-factory. We motivate the relevance to improve the present bounds on CPT kaon physics quantities. Also, the interferometer machine phi-factory is useful to study…
The recent Belle and Babar measurements of the branching ratios $B^- \to \pi^+ \pi^- K^-$ and $B^- \to K^+ K^- K^-$ and $B^\pm \to \chi_{c0} K^\pm$ have renewed interests in these decays as another mean to look for direct CP violation in B…
The final state interactions (FSI) in Delta S=-1, Delta C=\pm 1, decays of B-meson are discussed. The rescattering corrections are found to be of order of 15-20%. The strong interaction phase shifts are estimated and their effects on…
The effect of the final state Coulomb interaction on particles produced in Pb+Pb collisions at 158 A GeV/c has been investigated in the WA98 experiment through the study of the pi-/pi+ and K-/K+ ratios measured as a function of transverse…
B --> K^* \pi and B --> \rho K decays involve the same quark-level processes as B --> \pi K. Analyzing the measurements of the former decays might be able to shed additional light on the new-physics hints in the current B --> \pi K data. We…
In this article, we study the final-state rescattering effects in the decay $B^0 \to \eta_cK^*$, the numerical results indicate the corrections are comparable with the contribution from the naive factorizable amplitude, and the total…
I discuss some recent results on the systematic behavior of final state rescattering which makes use of the limit of a heavy B meson. The results suggest that soft final state interactions do not disappear in the large $m_B$ limit. Soft and…
