We performed a search for a light pseudoscalar particle $X$ in the decay $K_L^0->pi0pi0X$, $X->gammagamma$ with the E391a detector at KEK. Such a particle with a mass of 214.3 MeV/$c^2$ was suggested by the HyperCP experiment. We found no evidence for $X$ and set an upper limit on the product branching ratio for $K_L^0->pi0pi0X$, $X->gammagamma$ of $2.4 times 10^{-7}$ at the 90% confidence level. Upper limits on the branching ratios in the mass region of $X$ from 194.3 to 219.3 MeV/$c^2$ are also presented.

Based on a sample of 1.31 billion $J/psi$ events collected with the BESIII detector, we perform a search for the rare decay $etarightarrow 4pi^{0}$ via $J/psirightarrowgammaeta$. No significant $eta$ signal is observed in the invariant mass spectrum of 4$pi^{0}$. With a Bayesian approach, the upper limit on the branching fraction of $etarightarrow 4pi^{0}$ is determined to be $mathcal{B}(etarightarrow 4pi^{0})$ $< 4.94times10^{-5}$ at the 90% confidence level, which is a factor of six smaller than the previous experimental limit.
We present the results of a Dalitz plot analysis of D^0 to K^0_S pi^0 pi^0 using the CLEO-c data set of 818 inverse pico-barns of e^+ e^- collisions accumulated at sqrt{s} = 3.77 GeV. This corresponds to three million D^0 D^0-bar pairs from which we select 1,259 tagged candidates with a background of 7.5 +- 0.9 percent. Several models have been explored, all of which include the K^*(892), K^*_2(1430), K^*(1680), the f_0(980), and the sigma(500). We find that the combined pi^0 pi^0 S-wave contribution to our preferred fit is (28.9 +- 6.3 +- 3.1)% of the total decay rate while D^0 to K^*(892)^0 pi^0 contributes (65.6 +- 5.3 +- 2.5)%. Using three tag modes and correcting for quantum correlations we measure the D^0 to K^0_S pi^0 pi^0 branching fraction to be (1.059 +- 0.038 +- 0.061)%.
We search for $CP$ violation in the singly-Cabibbo-suppressed decay $D^{0}rightarrow K^{+}K^{-}pi^{+}pi^{-}$ using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $988text{ }{rm fb}^{-1}$ collected by the Belle detector at the KEKB $e^{+}e^{-}$ collider. We measure a set of five kinematically dependent $CP$ asymmetries, of which four asymmetries are measured for the first time. The set of asymmetry measurements can be sensitive to $CP$ violation via interference between the different partial-wave contributions to the decay and performed on other pseudoscalar decays. We find no evidence of $CP$ violation.
Using a data sample corresponding to 13.7 fb^-1 collected with the CLEO II and II.V detectors, we report new branching fraction measurements for two Cabibbo-suppressed decay modes of the D^+ meson: Br(D^+ to pi^+ pi^0) = (1.3 +/- 0.2) x 10^-3 and Br(D^+ to bar{K}^0 K^+) = (5.2 +/- 0.6) x 10^-3 which are significant improvements over past measurements. The errors include statistical and systematical uncertainties as well as the uncertainty in the absolute D^+ branching fraction scale. We also set the first 90% confidence level upper limit on the branching fraction of the doubly Cabibbo-suppressed decay mode Br(D^+ to K^+ pi^0) < 4.2 x 10^-4.
A search for time-dependent violation of the charge-parity symmetry in $D^0 to K^+ K^-$ and $D^0 to pi^+ pi^-$ decays is performed at the LHCb experiment using proton-proton collision data recorded from 2015 to 2018 at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 6 fb$^{-1}$. The $D^0$ meson is required to originate from a $D^*(2010)^+ to D^0 pi^+$ decay, such that its flavour at production is identified by the charge of the accompanying pion. The slope of the time-dependent asymmetry of the decay rates of $D^0$ and $bar{D}^0$ mesons into the final states under consideration is measured to be $Delta Y_{K^+ K^-} = (-2.3 pm 1.5 pm 0.3) times 10^{-4}$, $Delta Y_{pi^+ pi^-} = (-4.0 pm 2.8 pm 0.4)times 10^{-4}$, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second are systematic. These results are compatible with the conservation of the $CP$ symmetry at the level of 2 standard deviations and improve the precision by nearly a factor of two.
