An amplitude analysis of the final state structure in the Bs->J/psi K+K- decay mode is performed using 1.0/fb of data collected by the LHCb experiment in 7 TeV center-of-mass energy pp collisions produced by the LHC. A modified Dalitz plot analysis of the final state is performed using both the invariant mass spectra and the decay angular distributions. Resonant structures are observed in the K+K- mass spectrum as well as a significant non-resonant S-wave contribution. The largest resonant component is the phi(1020), accompanied by f0(980), f2(1525), and four additional resonances. The overall branching fraction is measured to be B(Bs->J/psi K+K-)=(7.70 +/-0.08 +/- 0.39 +/- 0.60)x 10^(-4), where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second systematic, and the third due to the ratio of the number of Bs to B- mesons produced. The mass and width of the f2(1525) are measured to be 1522.2 +/- 2.8^{+5.3}_{-2.0} MeV and 84 +/- 6^{+10}_{-5} MeV, respectively. The final state fractions of the other resonant states are also reported.

We report an amplitude analysis and branching fraction measurement of $D_{s}^{+} rightarrow K^{+}K^{-}pi^{+}$ decay using a data sample of 3.19 $rm fb^{-1}$ recorded with BESIII detector at a center-of-mass energy of 4.178 GeV. We perform a model-independent partial wave analysis in the low $K^{+}K^{-}$ mass region to determine the $K^{+}K^{-}$ S-wave lineshape, followed by an amplitude analysis of our very pure high-statistics sample. The amplitude analysis provides an accurate determination of the detection efficiency allowing us to measure the branching fraction ${cal B}(D_{s}^{+} rightarrow K^{+}K^{-}pi^{+}) = (5.47pm0.08_{{rm stat}}pm0.13_{{rm sys}})%$.
With $1.06times 10^8$ $psi(3686)$ events collected with the BESIII detector, the branching fraction of $psi(3686) to omega K^+ K^-$ is measured to be $(1.54 pm 0.04 pm 0.11) times 10^{-4}$. This is the most precise result to date, due to the largest $psi(3686)$ sample, improved signal reconstruction efficiency, good simulation of the detector performance, and a more accurate knowledge of the continuum contribution. Using the branching fraction of $J/psi to omega K^+ K^-$, the ratio $mathcal{B}(psi(3868) to K^+K^-) / mathcal{B}(J/psi to K^+K^-)$ is determined to be $(18.4 pm 3.7),%$. This constitutes a significantly improved test of the $12,%$ rule, with the uncertainty now dominated by the $J/psi$ branching fraction.
A search for the decay $B^0_srightarrow J/psi K^{*0}$ with $K^{*0} rightarrow K^-pi^+$ is performed with 0.37 fb$^{-1}$ of $pp$ collisions at $sqrt{s}$ = 7 TeV collected by the LHCb experiment, finding a $Bs to Jpsi K^-pi^+$ peak of $114 pm 11$ signal events. The $K^-pi^+$ mass spectrum of the candidates in the $B^0_s$ peak is dominated by the $K^{*0}$ contribution. Subtracting the non-resonant $K^-pi^+$ component, the branching fraction of BsJpsiKst is $(4.4_{-0.4}^{+0.5} pm 0.8) times 10^{-5}$, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic. A fit to the angular distribution of the decay products yields the Kst polarization fractions $f_L = 0.50 pm 0.08 pm 0.02$ and $f_{||} = 0.19^{+0.10}_{-0.08} pm 0.02$.
Using 6.32 fb$^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ collision data collected by the BESIII detector at the center-of-mass energies between 4.178 and 4.226 GeV,~an amplitude analysis of the $D^{+}_{s}rightarrow K^{0}_{S}K^{-}pi^{+}pi^{+}$ decays is performed for the first time to determine the intermediate-resonant contributions. The dominant component is the $D_s^+ to K^*(892)^+overline{K}^*(892)^0$ decay with a fraction of $(40.6pm2.9_{rm stat}pm4.9_{rm sys})$%. Our results of the amplitude analysis are used to obtain a more precise measurement of the branching fraction of the $D^{+}_{s}rightarrow K^{0}_{S}K^{-}pi^{+}pi^{+}$ decay, which is determined to be $(1.46pm0.05_{rm stat}pm0.05_{rm sys}$)%.
The decay Bs -> J/psi K+ K- is investigated using 0.16/fb of data collected with the LHCb detector using 7 TeV pp collisions. Although the J/psi phi channel is well known, final states at higher K+K- masses have not previously been studied. In the K+K- mass spectrum we observe a significant signal in the f2(1525) region as well as a non-resonant component. After subtracting the non-resonant component, we find B(Bs->J/psi f_2(1525))/B(Bs->J/psi phi)=(26.4 +/- 2.7 +/- 2.4)%.
