Using 482 pb$^{-1}$ of data taken at $sqrt{s}=4.009$ GeV, we measure the branching fractions of the decays of $D^{*0}$ into $D^0pi^0$ and $D^0gamma$ to be $BR(D^{*0} to D^0pi^0)=(65.5pm 0.8pm 0.5)%$ and $BR(D^{*0} to D^0gamma)=(34.5pm 0.8pm 0.5)%$ respectively, by assuming that the $D^{*0}$ decays only into these two modes. The ratio of the two branching fractions is $BR(D^{*0} to D^0pi^0)/BR(D^{*0} to D^0gamma) =1.90pm 0.07pm 0.05$, which is independent of the assumption made above. The first uncertainties are statistical and the second ones systematic. The precision is improved by a factor of three compared to the present world average values.

Based on a sample of $(1310.6 pm 7.0) times 10^6~J/psi$ events collected with the BESIII detector, we present measurements of $J/psi$ and $eta^prime$ absolute branching fractions using the process $J/psirightarrowgammaeta^prime$. By analyzing events where the radiative photon converts into an $e^+e^-$ pair, the branching fraction for $J/psi rightarrow gamma eta^prime$ is measured to be $(5.27pm0.03pm0.05)times 10^{-3}$. The absolute branching fractions of the five dominant decay channels of the $eta^prime$ are then measured independently for the first time and are determined to be $mathcal{B}(eta^prime rightarrow gamma pi^{+} pi^{-})$ = (29.90$pm$0.03$pm$0.55)%, $mathcal{B}(eta^prime rightarrow eta pi^{+} pi^{-})$ = (41.24$pm$0.08$pm$1.24)%, $mathcal{B}(eta^prime rightarrow eta pi^{0} pi^{0})$ = (21.36$pm$0.10$pm$0.92)%, $mathcal{B}(eta^prime rightarrow gamma omega)$ = (2.489$pm$0.018$pm$0.074)%, and $mathcal{B}(eta^prime rightarrow gamma gamma)$ = (2.331$pm$0.012$pm$0.035)%, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic.

The decays Upsilon(4S) -> BB, followed by B -> D* pi and D* -> D pi, permit reconstruction of all kinematic quantities that describe the sequence without reconstruction of the D, with reasonably low backgrounds. Using an integrated e+e- luminosity of 3.1 fb^{-1} accumulated at the Upsilon(4S) by the CLEO-II detector, we report measurements of BR(B0 -> D*+ pi-) = (2.81 +/- 0.11 +/- 0.21 +/- 0.05) x 10^{-3} and BR(B- -> D*0 pi-) = (4.34 +/- 0.33 +/- 0.34 +/- 0.18) x 10^{-3}.
The decay of the narrow resonance $overline{B}{}_{s2}^{*0}!rightarrow B^- K^+$ can be used to determine the $B^-$ momentum in partially reconstructed decays without any assumptions on the decay products of the $B^-$ meson. This technique is employed for the first time to distinguish contributions from $D^0$, $D^{*0}$, and higher-mass charmed states ($D^{**0}$) in semileptonic $B^-$ decays by using the missing-mass distribution. The measurement is performed using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 fb${}^{-1}$ collected with the LHCb detector in $pp$ collisions at center-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV. The resulting branching fractions relative to the inclusive $B^- !rightarrow D^0 X mu^- overline{ u}_mu$ are $f_{D^0} = mathcal{B}( B^- rightarrow D^0mu^-overline{ u}_mu )/mathcal{B}( B^- rightarrow D^0 X mu^- overline{ u}_mu ) = 0.25 pm 0.06$, $f_{D^{**0}} = mathcal{B}( B^- rightarrow ( D^{**0} rightarrow D^0 X)mu^-overline{ u}_mu )/mathcal{B}( B^- rightarrow D^0 X mu^- overline{ u}_mu ) = 0.21 pm 0.07$, with $f_{D^{*0}} = 1 - f_{D^0} - f_{D^{**0}}$ making up the remainder.
Using a data sample of 980 ${rm fb}^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ annihilation data taken with the Belle detector operating at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+e^-$ collider, we report the results of a study of the decays of the $Omega_c^0$ charmed baryon into had ronic final states. We report the most precise measurements to date of the relative branching fractions of the $Omega_c^0$ into $Omega^-pi^+pi^0$, $Omega^-pi^+pi^-pi^+$, $Xi^-K^-pi^+pi^+$, and $Xi^0K^-pi^+$, as well as the first measurements of the branching fractions of the $Omega_c^0$ into $Xi^-bar{K}^0pi^+$, $Xi^0bar{K}^0$, and $Lambda bar{K}^0bar{K}^0$, all with respect to the $Omega^-pi^+$ decay. In addition, we investigate the resonant substructure of these modes. Finally, we present a limit on the branching fraction for the decay $Omega_c^0toSigma^+K^-K^-pi^+$.
The first observation of the decay $bar{B}^0_s to D^0 K^{*0}$ using $pp$ data collected by the LHCb detector at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 36 pb$^{-1}$, is reported. A signal of $34.4 pm 6.8$ events is obtained and the absence of signal is rejected with a statistical significance of more than nine standard deviations. The $bar{B}^0_s to D^0 K^{*0}$ branching fraction is measured relative to that of $bar{B}^0 to D^0 rho^0$: $frac{{cal B}(bar{B}^0_s to D^0 K^{*0})}{{cal B}(bar{B}^0 to D^0 rho^0)} = 1.48 pm 0.34 pm 0.15 pm 0.12$, where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second systematic and the third is due to the uncertainty on the ratio of the $B^0$ and $B^0_s$ hadronisation fractions.
