Relative branching fractions of [Formula: see text] decays (where h, h′ = K or π) and the direct CP asymmetry [Formula: see text] in the [Formula: see text] mode are measured with 179 ± 11 pb -1 of data collected at [Formula: see text] using the CDF II detector at the Fermilab Tevatron [Formula: see text] collider. The first branching-fraction measurement of a [Formula: see text] meson to two pseudoscalars, [Formula: see text], and a search for the baryon mode [Formula: see text] are also presented, in addition to branching-fraction limits on the rare channels [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], and [Formula: see text].

AbstractA branching fraction measurement of the $${{B} ^0} {\rightarrow }{{D} ^+_{s}} {{\pi } ^-} $$ B 0 → D s + π - decay is presented using proton–proton collision data collected with the LHCb experiment, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $$5.0\,\text {fb} ^{-1} $$ 5.0 fb - 1 . The branching fraction is found to be $${\mathcal {B}} ({{B} ^0} {\rightarrow }{{D} ^+_{s}} {{\pi } ^-} ) =(19.4 \pm $$ B ( B 0 → D s + π - ) = ( 19.4 ± $$1.8\pm 1.3 \pm 1.2)\times 10^{-6}$$ 1.8 ± 1.3 ± 1.2 ) × 10 - 6 , where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second systematic and the third is due to the uncertainty on the $${{B} ^0} {\rightarrow }{{D} ^-} {{\pi } ^+} $$ B 0 → D - π + , $${{D} ^+_{s}} {\rightarrow }{{K} ^+} {{K} ^-} {{\pi } ^+} $$ D s + → K + K - π + and $${{D} ^-} {\rightarrow }{{K} ^+} {{\pi } ^-} {{\pi } ^-} $$ D - → K + π - π - branching fractions. This is the most precise single measurement of this quantity to date. As this decay proceeds through a single amplitude involving a $$b{\rightarrow }u$$ b → u charged-current transition, the result provides information on non-factorisable strong interaction effects and the magnitude of the Cabibbo–Kobayashi–Maskawa matrix element $$V_{ub}$$ V ub . Additionally, the collision energy dependence of the hadronisation-fraction ratio $$f_s/f_d$$ f s / f d is measured through $${{\overline{B}} {}^0_{s}} {\rightarrow }{{D} ^+_{s}} {{\pi } ^-} $$ B ¯ s 0 → D s + π - and $${{B} ^0} {\rightarrow }{{D} ^-} {{\pi } ^+} $$ B 0 → D - π + decays.

First direct measurements of the weak decay constant [Formula: see text] and the [Formula: see text] branching fractions to [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] at the BES experiments in 1990s are reviewed. Referring to the BESIII results of [Formula: see text] and branching fraction [Formula: see text] with best precision1 to date, prospect for challenge on precision measurements of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] at BESIII is presented.
