Nonzero neutrino masses imply the existence of degrees of freedom and interactions beyond those in the Standard Model. A powerful indicator of what these might be is the nature of the massive neutrinos: Dirac fermions versus Majorana fermions. While addressing the nature of neutrinos is often associated with searches for lepton-number violation, there are several other features that distinguish Majorana from Dirac fermions. Here, we compute in great detail the kinematics of the daughters of the decays into charged-leptons and neutrinos of hypothetical heavy neutral leptons at rest. We allow for the decay to be mediated by the most general four-fermion interaction Lagrangian. We demonstrate, for example, that when the daughter charged-leptons have the same flavor or the detector is insensitive to their charges, polarized Majorana-fermion decays have zero forward/backward asymmetry in the direction of the outgoing neutrino (relative to the parent spin), whereas Dirac-fermion decays can have large asymmetries. Going beyond studying forward/backward asymmetries, we also explore the fully-differential width of the three-body decays. It contains a wealth of information not only about the nature of the new fermions but also the nature of the interactions behind their decays.

In the present work, we study the OZI-allowed three body open flavor decay properties of higher vector charmonium and bottomonium states with an extended quark pair creation model. For the bottomonium system, we get that (i) the $BBpi$ and $B^*B^*pi$
partial decay widths of the $Upsilon(5S)$ state are consistent with the experiment, and the $BB^*pi$ partial decay width of the $Upsilon(5S)$ state is smaller but very close to the Belles experiment. Meanwhile, (ii) the $BB^*pi$ and $B^*B^*pi$ decay widths of $Upsilon(11020)$ can reachs $2sim3$ MeV. In addition, (iii) for the most of higher vector charmonium states, the partial decay widths of the $DD^*pi$ and $D^*D^*pi$ modes can reach up to several MeV, which may be observed in future experiments.
We calculate the dominant three body Higgs decays, $H to W^+W^-(Z^0, gamma)$ and $H to toverline{t}(Z^0,gamma ,g)$, in the Standard Model. We find that the branching ratios of these decays are of the order of few percent for large Higgs masses. We co
mment on the behaviour of the partial decay width $Gamma (H to toverline{b}W^-)$ below the $toverline{t}$ threshold. Numerical results of the following three body top decays, $t to W^+b(gamma ,g,Z^0)$ and $t to W^+bH$, are also given. We discuss the feasibility of observing these Higgs and top decays at future high energy colliders.
To date, the weak-phase $gamma$ has been measured using two-body $B$-meson decays such as $Bto D K$ and $Bto Dpi$, whose amplitudes contain only tree-level diagrams. But $gamma$ can also be extracted from three-body charmless hadronic $B$ decays. Sin
ce the amplitudes for such decays contain both tree- and loop-level diagrams, $gamma$ obtained in this way is sensitive to new physics that can enter into these loops. The comparison of the values of $gamma$ extracted using tree-level and loop-level methods is therefore an excellent test for new physics. In this talk, we will show how U-spin and flavor-SU(3) symmetries can be used to develop methods for extracting $gamma$ from $Bto Kpipi$ and $Bto KK{bar K}$ decays. We describe a successful implementation of the flavor-SU(3) symmetry method applied to BaBar data.
We evaluate in the framework of QCD factorization the two-loop vertex corrections to the decays $bar{B}_{(s)}to D_{(s)}^{(ast)+} , L^-$ and $Lambda_b to Lambda_c^+ , L^-$, where $L$ is a light meson from the set ${pi,rho,K^{(ast)},a_1}$. These decays
are paradigms of the QCD factorization approach since only the colour-allowed tree amplitude contributes at leading power. Hence they are sensitive to the size of power corrections once their leading-power perturbative expansion is under control. Here we compute the two-loop ${cal O}(alpha_s^2)$ correction to the leading-power hard scattering kernels, and give the results for the convoluted kernels almost completely analytically. Our newly computed contribution amounts to a positive shift of the magnitude of the tree amplitude by $sim 2$%. We then perform an extensive phenomenological analysis to NNLO in QCD factorization, using the most recent values for non-perturbative input parameters. Given the fact that the NNLO perturbative correction and updated values for form factors increase the theory prediction for branching ratios, while experimental central values have at the same time decreased, we reanalyze the role and potential size of power corrections by means of appropriately chosen ratios of decay channels.
CP asymmetries have been measured recently by the LHCb collaboration in three-body $B^+$ decays to final states involving charged pions and kaons. Large asymmetries with opposite signs at a level of about 60% have been observed in $B^pmto pi^pm({rm o
r} K^pm)pi^+pi^-$ and $B^pm to pi^pm K^+K^-$ for restricted regions in the Dalitz plots involving $pi^+pi^-$ and $K^+K^-$ with low invariant mass. U-spin is shown to predict corresponding $Delta S=0$ and $Delta S=1$ asymmetries with opposite signs and inversely proportional to their branching ratios, in analogy with a successful relation predicted thirteen years ago between asymmetries in $B_sto K^-pi^+$ and $B^0 to K^+ pi^-$. We compare these predictions with the measured integrated asymmetries. Effects of specific resonant or non-resonant partial waves on enhanced asymmetries for low-pair-mass regions of the Dalitz plot are studied in $B^pm to pi^pm pi^+pi^-$. The closure of low-mass $pi^+pi^-$ and $K^+K^-$ channels involving only $pipi leftrightarrow Kbar K$ rescattering may explain by CPT approximately equal magnitudes and opposite signs measured in $B^pmto pi^pmpi^+pi^-$ and $B^pm to pi^pm K^+K^-$.
