We report on a search for the decay $B^0\to\rho^0\rho^0$ and other charmless modes with a $\pi^+\pi^-\pi^+\pi^-$ final state, including $B^0\to\rho^0\pi^+\pi^-$, non-resonant $B^0\to 4\pi^{\pm}$, $B^0\to\rho^0f_0(980)$, $B^0\to…
We overview recent measurements in B -> rho rho decays which are based on data samples collected at the PEP-II and KEKB asymmetric-energy e+e- colliders with the BABAR and Belle detectors. Special emphasis is given to the determination of…
Measurements of the rates for the hadronic decays B^+- -> pi K along with the CP-averaged B^+- -> pi^+- pi^0 branching ratio can be used to bound and extract the weak phase gamma=-arg(V_ub). Using preliminary CLEO data, we obtain the bounds…
We search for the decays B0->rho0rho0, B0->rho0f0, and B0->f0f0 in a sample of about 384 million Upsilon(4S)->BBbar decays collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy e+e- collider at SLAC. We find evidence for…
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…
Using a 281 pb^{-1} data sample collected at the psi(3770) with the CLEO-c detector, we present the first absolute branching fraction measurement of the decay D^0 rightarrow K^-pi^+pi^-e^+nu_e at a statistical significance of about 4.0…
The ratio of branching fractions between $B^{0} \rightarrow J/\psi \pi^{0}$ and $B^{+} \rightarrow J/\psi K^{*+}$ decays is measured with proton-proton collision data collected by the LHCb experiment, corresponding to an integrated…
We present preliminary measurements of branching fractions and CP-violating charge asymmetries in B-meson decays to rho pi. The data sample comprises 89 million Y(4S) --> BBbar decays collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II…
We report a measurement of the branching fraction for the decay $B^+ \to \rho^+\pi^0$ based on a 140 ${\rm fb}^{-1}$ data sample collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric $e^+e^-$ collider. We measure the branching fraction…
We discuss the uses of conversion electron pairs for extracting photon polarization information in weak radiative B decays. Both cases of leptons produced through a virtual and real photon are considered. Measurements of the angular…
The experimental branching ratio for the radiative decay $\rho^{0}\to\pi^{+}+\pi^{-}+\gamma$ is used to estimate the coupling constant $g_{\rho\sigma\gamma}$ for a set of values of $\sigma$-meson parameters M$_{\sigma}$ and…
We present a study of the decays B+ -> rho+ gamma, B0 -> rho0 gamma, and B0 -> omega gamma. The analysis is based on data containing 347 million BBbar events recorded with the BaBar detector at the PEP-II asymmetric B factory. We measure…
We present a feasibility study for a new analysis for extracting the angle gamma of the Unitarity Triangle from the study of the neutral B meson decays. We reconstruct the decay channel B0 ->D0 K*0 with the K*0->K+pi- and the D0 -> KSpipi…
LHCb will collect large samples of Bd and Bs decays. Combining the CP-violating observables of the decays Bd-->pi+pi- and Bs-->K+K- it is possible to extract the gamma angle of the unitarity triangle. The selection of these decays within…
Using proton-proton collision data collected by the LHCb experiment at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb^{-1}, the ratio of branching fractions of the B0 -> D*- pi+ pi- pi+ decay relative to the B0 -> D*-…
Measurements of D0 meson strong-phase parameters in quantum-correlated psi(3770) -> D0 D0bar decays by the CLEO collaboration are presented. These measurements play an important role in the determination of the unitarity triangle angle…
We show that the angle $\alpha_{ds}$ of the ``flattest'' unitarity triange can be directly measured using the decays $\overline{B}_{d}\to \phi \overline{K}^{(*)0}$ and $\overline{B}_{s}\to \phi{K}^{(*)0}$. Using both $\overline{B}_{d}$ and…
We discuss how to extract the weak phase alpha from present data on B--> rho+- pi-+ decays. Introducing alpha_{eff} and constraining the difference from alpha using flavor SU(3), one arrives at alpha=(95+- 16) degrees, if a testable…
The decay Bc+ --> J/psi pi+pi-pi+ is observed for the first time, using 0.8 fb-1 of pp collisions at sqrt{s}=7 TeV collected by the LHCb experiment. The ratio of branching fractions BR(Bc+ --> J/psi pi+pi-pi+)/BR(B_c+ --> J/psi pi+) is…
Using a data sample with integrated luminosity of about 3.9 fb^{-1} collected in e+ e- annihilation with the CLEO-II detector at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring, we have measured the branching ratios for the decay modes Ds -> (eta, eta')…
