We investigate the decay $\phi\to\pi^+\pi^-\pi^0$ in an effective-Lagrangian framework that keeps the dominant $\rho\pi$ mechanism and the direct three-pion term explicitly separated at the amplitude level. The resonant contribution is…

We report on a measurement of $b$-hadron lifetimes in the fully reconstructed decay modes B^+ -->J/Psi K+, B^0 --> J/Psi K*, B^0 --> J/Psi Ks, and Lambda_b --> J/Psi Lambda using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 4.3 ${\rm…

The radiative hyperon decay $\Lambda\to n\gamma$ is studied using $(10087\pm44)\times 10^6$ $J/\psi$ events collected with the BESIII detector operating at BEPCII. The absolute branching fraction of the decay $\Lambda\to n\gamma$ is…

Nonresonant three-body decays of D and B mesons are studied. It is pointed out that if heavy meson chiral perturbation theory (HMChPT) is applied to the heavy-light strong and weak vertices and assumed to be valid over the whole kinematic…

We report about the studies of the decay channels B- -> D0 K-, B0 -> D*- a1+ and B0 -> Ds(*)- pi+ with a sample of 62.10^6 Upsilon(4S) decays into B meson pairs collected with the BaBar detector at the PEP II asymmetric e+ e- collider.

We have observed new channels for $\tau$ decays with an $\eta$ in the final state. We study 3-prong tau decays, using the $\eta\to\gamma\gamma$ and $\eta\to 3\piz$ decay modes and 1-prong decays with two $\piz$'s using the…

We derive general explicit expressions for a shell-model calculation of the intrinsic asymmetry parameter, $a_\Lambda$, in nonmesonic weak hypernuclear decay. They include the effects of three-body kinematics in the final states of the…

A search for decays of the Higgs and Z boson to pairs of J/$\psi$ or $\Upsilon$(nS) (n = 1, 2, 3) mesons, with their subsequent decay to $\mu^+\mu^-$ pairs, is presented. The analysis uses data from proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s} =$…

The semileptonic transition of $\Lambda_b$ baryon is studied using the Hypercentral constituent quark model. The six-dimensional hyperradial $Schr\ddot{o}dinger$ equation is solved in the variational approach to get masses and wavefunctions…

We characterize the $L^2$ decay rate of solutions to the 3D magneto-micropolar system in terms of the decay character of the initial datum. Due to a linear damping term, the micro-rotational field has a faster decay rate. We also address…

Ratios of charmed meson and baryon semileptonic decay rates appear to be satisfactorily described by considering only the lowest-lying (S-wave) hadronic final states and assuming the kinematic factor describing phase space suppression is…

The effect of isoscalar S-wave multi-channel pion-pion scattering ($\pi\pi\to\pi\pi,K\bar{K},\eta\eta$) is considered in the analysis of data on decays of the $\Upsilon$-meson family -- $\Upsilon(2S)\to\Upsilon(1S)\pi\pi$,…

We report on measurements of the mass and lifetime of the Xi_b^- baryon using about 1800 Xi_b^- decays reconstructed in a proton-proton collision data set corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 fb^{-1} collected by the LHCb…

We present a phenomenological description of the LHCb data for the magnitudes and phases of the $\pi^-\pi^+$ $S$-wave amplitudes in the $D^+\to\pi^-\pi^+\pi^+$ and $D^+_s\to\pi^-\pi^+\pi^+$ decays. We operate within a simple model that…

Using $e^+e^-\to\Lambda_c^+\bar\Lambda_c^-$ production from a 567 pb$^{-1}$ data sample collected by BESIII at 4.6 GeV, a full angular analysis is carried out simultaneously on the four decay modes of $\Lambda_c^+\to pK_S^0$, $\Lambda…

We re-examine the puzzling $\pi^+$ emission from the weak decay of $^4_\Lambda$He and propose an explanation in terms of a three-body decay of the virtual $\Sigma^+$. Such a resolution of the $\pi^+$ decay puzzle is consistent with the…

We review the physics of purely leptonic decays of $\pi^\pm$, $K^\pm$, $D^{\pm}$, $D_s^\pm$, and $B^\pm$ pseudoscalar mesons. The measured decay rates are related to the product of the relevant weak-interaction-based CKM matrix element of…

The decay of $\Lambda_b\to\Sigma_c^{(*)}\pi l{\bar\nu}$ processes are calculated in the framework of heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory with help of the $1/N_c$ expansion. The decay rate distributions over $v\cdot v^{\prime}$ where $v$…
