We analyze the quasi-two-body decays $B^+\to\pi^+\rho(770,1450)^0 \to\pi^+ K^+K^-$ in the perturbative QCD approach. The results in this work do not support that large branching fractions contributed by the resonances $\rho(770,1450)^0$ in…

The decay widths of four-body double-pion decays $\ds\to pn \pi^0\pi^0$, $\ds\to pn \pi^+\pi^-$, and iso-scalar parts of $\ds\to pp \pi^0\pi^-$ and $\ds\to nn \pi^+\pi^0$ are explicitly calculated with the help of the $d^*$ wave function…
