TThe LHCb collaboration has recently reported evidence for non-zero CP asymmetries in $B^+$ decays into $\pi^+ K^+ K^-,\; \pi^+\pi^+\pi^-,\; K^+ K^+ K^- $ and $K^+\pi^+\pi^-$. The branching ratios for these decays have also been measured…
We perform a comprehensive SU(3)-flavor analysis of charmed mesons decaying to two pseudoscalar SU(3)-octet mesons. Taking into account SU(3)-breaking effects induced by the splitting of the quark masses, m_s != m_{u,d}, we find that…
The LHCb collaboration has recently measured the first direct CP violation in $B^0_s$ decays with a rate asymmetry $A_{CP}(B^0_s\to K^- \pi^+)$ given by $0.27 \pm 0.04(stat)\pm 0.01(syst)$. At the same time they also made the most precise…
The recent LHCb measurements of the $B_s \to K^-\pi^+$ and $B_s \to K^+K^-$ rates and CP asymmetries are in agreement with U-spin expectations from $B_d \to K^+\pi^-$ and $B_d \to \pi^+\pi^-$ results. We derive the complete set of isospin,…
In this talk we briefly present a flavor-SU(3) technique to study branching ratios and direct CP asymmetries $D$-meson decays. The first part of the talk is meant to set up a foundation, based on previous work, to deal with flavor-SU(3)…
We investigate to what extent the recently measured value for a non-vanishing direct CP asymmetry in D0 -> K+ K- and D0 -> pi+ pi- decays can be accommodated in the Standard Model (SM) or extensions with a constrained flavour sector, for…
Flavor symmetry and symmetry breaking, K^0-\bar{K}^0 mixing and possible effects of new physics on CP violation in weak decay modes D^{\pm} \to K_{S,L} + X^{\pm}, (K_{S,L} + \pi^0)_{K^*} + X^{\pm} (for X =\pi, \rho, a_1) and D^{\pm}_s \to…
Motivated by the recent 3.9$\sigma$ evidence for CP violation from the LHCb collaboration in decays of an anti-triplet beauty baryon to a charmonium, an octet baryon, and a pseudoscalar meson, we perform, for the first time, a systematic…
I present a consistent way to include $\eta$-$\eta^\prime$ mixing in global analyses of two-body decays of heavy hadrons employing the approximate flavour-SU(3) symmetry of QCD. The framework is applied to $D\to P \eta^\prime$ decays, where…
We study implications of a recent observation of non-leptonic $B^+_c\to D^0 K^+$ decay and a bound on $B^+_c\to D^0 \pi^+$ transition on CP-violating asymmetries in $B_c$ decays. In the U-spin symmetry limit, we derive a relation between…
Flavor SU(3) symmetry, including $30\%$ first order SU(3) breaking, has been shown to describe adequately a vast amount of data for charmed meson decays to two pseudoscalar mesons and to a vector and a pseudoscalar meson. We review a recent…
Global fits to charmless B --> PP decays in the framework of flavor SU(3) symmetry are updated and improved without reference to the \sin2\beta measured from the charmonium decay modes. Fit results directly constrain the (\bar\rho,\bar\eta)…
The decay rates of $D^+\to\pi^+\pi^0$ and $D^0\to K^+\pi^-$ recently measured by CLEO give the ratios $R_1=2|V_{cs}/V_{cd}|^2\Gamma(D^+\to \pi^+\pi^0)/\Gamma(D^+\to\bar{K}^0 \pi^+)=3.29\pm 1.16$ and…
We review $CP$-violating observables in flavor tagged and untagged $D^0 \rightarrow K^{-}\pi^{+}$ decays and evaluate the $CP$ asymmetry difference between the two decays. We note that this commonly neglected difference is not zero in…
We present a comprehensive study of anti-triplet charmed baryon decays into octet baryons and pseudoscalar mesons using the $SU(3)_F$ flavor symmetry framework. By decomposing the flavor structure, all decay amplitudes are parametrized with…
CP asymmetries in $B^0(t)\to \pi^+ \pi^-$ are studied by relating this process in broken flavor SU(3) with $B^+\to K^0\pi^+$ and $B^0\to K^+\pi^-$. Using two different scenarios for SU(3) breaking, we show that the range of values of the…
Charge-parity (CP) asymmetries in charm decays are extremely suppressed in the Standard Model and may well be dominated by new physics contributions. The LHCb collaboration reported the results of direct CP asymmetry measurements in $D^0\to…
We explore the breaking effects of the $SU(3)$ flavor symmetry in the singly Cabibbo-suppressed anti-triplet charmed baryon decays of ${\bf B}_c\to {\bf B}_n M$, with ${\bf B}_c=(\Xi_c^0,\Xi_c^+,\Lambda_c^+)$ and ${\bf B}_n(M)$ the baryon…
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…
Many exclusive $c\to d/s\ell^+\nu_\ell~(\ell=e,\mu,\tau)$ transitions have been well measured, and they can be used to test the theoretical calculations. Motivated by this, we study the $D\to P/V/S\ell^+\nu_\ell$ decays induced by the $c\to…
