We estimate final state interactions in the B-meson decays into two light vector mesons by the Regge model. We consider Pomeron exchange and charmed Regge trajectories that can relate intermediate charmed particles to the final state. The…
We discuss the final state interaction effects at high energies via a multi-channel N/D method. We find that the 2 by 2 charge--exchange final state interactions typically contribute an enhancement factor of a few times $10^{-2}$ in the $B$…
In this paper we try to extract the CKM angle $\gamma$ from the new "mixed" system of $B^+ \to \pi^+ K^0$ and $B_d^0 \to \pi^0 K^0$ decays. We also made an update for the constraints on the angle $\gamma$ from the observables $R$ and $A_0$.…
I give a brief review of final state interactions in meson decays. I describe possible effects of FSI in K, D and B systems, paying particular attention to the description of the heavy meson decays. Available theoretical methods for dealing…
In this proceeding I present the latest result by the LHCb collaboration in determining the CKM angle $\gamma$ ($(73^{+9}_{-10})^{\circ}$). The result is determined by combining several $B \to Dh$ analyses, and the latest results from the…

A method parametrizing all inelastic final state interactions (FSI) in $B\to PP$ decays is presented ($P$ - pseudoscalar meson). The method explicitly shows how rescattering leads to the replacement of the short-distance amplitudes with the…
We study final-state interactions in nonleptonic weak decays in statistical models by averaging over ensembles of strong interaction S-matrices. The models range from one with completely random strong interactions, which gives extensive…
We quantify the important effect of strong final state interactions in the weak $K\to 2\pi$ amplitudes, using the measured $\pi$-$\pi$ phase shifts with J=0 and $I=0,2$. The main results of this analysis, with their implications for…
We predict branching ratios and CP asymmetries of the $B\to KK$ decays using perturbative QCD factorization theorem, in which tree, penguin, and annihilation contributions, including both factorizable and nonfactorizable ones, are expressed…
An attempt is made to identify circumstances under which the weak decays of $D$ and $B$ mesons may display large differences between eigenphases of strong final-state interactions. There are several cases in which rescattering from other…
The large localized CP asymmetries observed by LHCb in three-body charmless decays of $B$ mesons brings new challenge for experimentalists and their traditional models to fit data. With higher statistics, rescattering and three-body…
Recent data from experiment E97-006 at TJNAF using the 12C(e,e'p) reaction at very large missing energies and momenta are compared to a calculation of two-step rescattering. A comparison between parallel and perpendicular kinematics…
We present a model for the decay D+ --> K- pi+ pi+. The weak interaction part of this reaction is described using the effective weak Hamiltonian in the factorisation approach. Hadronic final state interactions are taken into account through…
We extend the formalism for the low-energy analysis of the $\gamma p\rightarrow K^{+}\pi\Sigma$ photoproduction reaction to include the strangeness $S=-1$ meson-baryon p-wave final-state interaction with total angular momentum…
In nuclear physics, it is well known that the electromagnetic (Coulomb) interaction between final state products can drastically effect particle reaction rates. Near thresholds, for example, nuclear alpha decay is suppressed while nuclear…

Measurements of the rates for the hadronic decays B^+- -> pi K can be used to derive information on the weak phase gamma=arg(V_ub^*) in a largely model-independent way. Hadronic uncertainties can be reduced to the level of nonfactorizable…
We investigate the importance of final state interactions in weak nonleptonic hyperon decays within a relativistic chiral unitary approach based on coupled channels. The effective potentials for meson-baryon scattering are derived from a…
The measurement of the time-dependent CP-asymmetry of $B^0 \to K_S^0 \pi^+ \pi^- \gamma$ decays is sensitive to contributions from physics beyond the Standard Model. To translate this measurement into a constraint on new physics, it is…
