The width of three-body single-pion decay process $d^*\to NN\pi^{0,\pm}$ is calculated by using the $d^*$ wave function obtained from our chiral SU(3) constituent quark model calculation. The effect of the dynamical structure on the width…
The pionic decay of a possible d'-dibaryon in the process d' --> pi + N + N is studied in the microscopic quark shell model and with a single-quark transition operator describing the transition q --> pi + q'. For the d' with quantum numbers…
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…
The decay widths of the $\ds\to d \pi^0\pi^0$ and $\ds\to d \pi^+\pi^-$ processes are explicitly calculated in terms of our chiral quark model. By using the experimental ratios of cross sections between various decay channels, the partial…
We study the pionic decay of a possible dibaryon d' --> N N \pi in the microscopic quark shell model. The initial d' dibaryon wave function (J^P=0^-, T=0) consists of one 1\hbar\omega six-quark shell-model s^5p[51]_X configuration. The most…
Under certain circumstances, a three-body decay width can be approximated by an integral involving a product of two off-shell two-body decay widths. This ``angle-average'' approximation is used to calculate the $\pi NN$ decay width of the…
The decays B -> D^{**} pi, where D^{**} is a narrow p-wave charm resonance, are investigated in the context of a generalized factorization hypothesis, including the leading nonfactorizable corrections. The decay rates for these processes…
The D^+ --> omega + pi^+ decay is studied by decomposing its amplitude into a sum of factorizable and non-factorizable ones. Its rate is predicted as a function of mass and width of a hypothetical hybrid meson.
Evidence has recently been presented for the existence of a dibaryon of mass 2380 MeV/c^2 and width 70 MeV/c^2, which decays strongly into the d pi0 pi0 channel [M. Bashkanov et al., Phys.Rev.Lett. 102 (2009) 052301; P. Adlarson et al.,…
We stress that, although the $D^*$ is very narrow (one hundred of keV), the difference between the full $D^*$ contribution to $B \to \bar{D} \pi \pi$ and its zero width limit, which stems from the resonance tail, is surprisingly large~:…
Heavy flavour decay to light hadrons is the key to understanding many aspects of the SM from CP violation to strong dynamics. It is often presumed in line with the simple quark spectator model of D decay to Kpipi that the Kpi system has…
We investigate the production of the novel $P$-wave mesons $D^{*}_{0}$ and $D^{\prime}_{1} (D_{1})$, identified as $J^{P}=0^+$ and $1^+$, in heavy $B$ meson decays, respectively. With the heavy quark limit, we give our modelling wave…
We report on analyses of $B^-$ mesons decaying into $D^{*+}\pi^-\pi^-$ and $D^+\pi^-\pi^-$ final states using 89 million $B^-$ decays collected by the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy $B$ Factory. Preliminary measurements are…
The mass estimate of the $d^* (IJ^P=03^+)$ dibaryon is improved by a dynamical calculation in the quark delocalization, color screening model. The partial decay width of $d^*$ into an $NN$ D-wave state is also obtained. The mass obtained is…
The decays D^* -> D\pi and D^* -> D\gamma are well described by heavy meson chiral perturbation theory. With the recent measurement of Br(D^{*+} -> D^+ \gamma), the D^{*0}, D^{*+}, and D_s^* branching fractions can be used to extract the…
We report on the observation of B->D{*}pi+pi-pi-pio decays. The branching ratios for D*+ and D*o are (1.72+/-0.14+/-0.24)% and (1.80+/-0.24+/-0.25)%, respectively. Each final state has a D{*} omega pi- component, with branching ratios…
We perform a phenomenological analysis of the decays $B \to D^{**}\pi$, where $D^{**}$ is a $P$-wave excited meson with total angular momentum $j = {1 \over 2}$ or ${3 \over 2}$ for the light cloud, recently measured by the Belle…
We report the first observation of color-suppressed $\bar{B}{}^0 \to D^0 \pi^0$, $D^{*0} \pi^0$, $D^{0} \eta$, and $D^{0}\omega$ decays and evidence for $\bar{B}{}^0 \to D^{*0} \eta$ and $D^{*0}\omega$. The branching fractions are found to…
Using data from FOCUS (E831) experiment at Fermilab, we present a model independent partial-wave analysis of the $K^-\pi^+$ S-wave amplitude from the decay $D^+ \to K^-\pi^+\pi^+$. The S-wave is a generic complex function to be determined…
