Heavy Flavor Physics [bottom, charm, tau]

Using the entire CLEO-c psi(3770) --> DDbar event sample, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 818 pb-1 and approximately 5.2 million DDbar events, we present a study of the decays D0 --> pi- e+ nu, D0 --> K- e+ nu, D+ --> pi0 e+ nu, and D+ --> K0bar e+ nu. Using a tagged analysis technique, in which one D is fully reconstructed in a hadronic mode, absolute partial rates for...

Heavy Flavor Physics [bottom, charm, tau]

We study the decay properties of the D_s^+ using a large data sample collected by the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric energy $e^+ e^-$ collider. Measurements of the relative branching fractions of K_S pi and K_S K states and the observation of the doubly Cabibbo-suppressed decay Ds+ -> K+K+pi- are presented.

Heavy Flavor Physics [bottom, charm, tau]

We report recent results on hadronic decays of D0, D+, and Ds mesons. Results include branching fractions for D0, D+, and Ds decays to two pseudoscalars; the first measurements of absolute branching fractions for Ds decay; exclusive Ds --> omega X decays; inclusive hadronic Ds decays; and Dalitz analyses of Ds --> K+ K- pi+ and D+ --> K+ K- pi+ decays.
