The relative abundance of the three decay modes $B_d to D^- K^+$, $B_d to D^- pi^+$ and $B_s to D_s^- pi^+$ produced in 7 TeV $pp$ collisions at the LHC is determined from data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35 pb$^{-1}$. The branching fraction of $B_d to D^- K^+$ is found to be $cal B (B_d to D^- K^+) = (2.01 pm 0.18^{textrm{stat}} pm 0.14^{textrm{syst}})times 10^{-4}$. The ratio of fragmentation fractions fsfdt is determined through the relative abundance of $B_s to D_s^- pi^+$ to $B_d to D^- K^+$ and $B_d to D^-pi^+$, leading to $f_s/f_d = 0.253 pm 0.017 pm 0.017 pm 0.020$, where the uncertainties are statistical, systematic, and theoretical respectively.

The asymmetry in the production cross-section sigma of D+/- mesons, A_P = (sigma(D+) - sigma(D-))/(sigma(D+) + sigma(D-)), is measured in bins of pseudorapidity eta and transverse momentum p_T within the acceptance of the LHCb detector. The result is obtained with a sample of D+ -> K_S pi+ decays corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb^-1, collected in pp collisions at a centre of mass energy of 7 TeV at the Large Hadron Collider. When integrated over the kinematic range 2.0 < p_T < 18.0 GeV/c and 2.20 < eta < 4.75, the production asymmetry is A_P = (-0.96+/-0.26+/-0.18)%. The uncertainties quoted are statistical and systematic, respectively. The result assumes that any direct CP violation in the D+ -> K_S pi+ decay is negligible. No significant dependence on eta or p_T is observed.
The ratio of the $B^0_s$ and $B^0$ fragmentation fractions, $f_s/f_d$, in proton-proton collisions at the LHC, is obtained as a function of $B$-meson transverse momentum and collision centre-of-mass energy from the combined analysis of different $B$- decay channels measured by the LHCb experiment. The results are described by a linear function of the meson transverse momentum, or with a function inspired by Tsallis statistics. Precise measurements of the branching fractions of the $B^0_s to J/psi phi$ and $B^0_s to D^-_s pi^+$ decays are performed, reducing their uncertainty by about a factor of two with respect to previous world averages. Numerous $B^0_s$ decay branching fractions, measured at the LHCb experiment, are also updated using the new values of $f_s/f_d$ and branching fractions of normalisation channels. These results reduce a major source of systematic uncertainty in several searches for new physics performed through measurements of $B^0_s$ branching fractions.

Using 13.53/fb of CLEO data, we have measured the ratios of the branching fractions R+(e) = BF(D+ --> K*0bar e+ nu_e) / BF(D+ --> K- pi+ pi+), R+(mu) = BF(D+ --> K*0bar mu+ nu_mu) / BF(D+ --> K- pi+ pi+) and the combined branching fraction ratio R+(l ) = BF(D+ --> K*0bar l+ nu_l) / BF(D+ --> K- pi+ pi+). We find R+(e) = 0.74 +- 0.04 +- 0.05, R+(mu) = 0.72 +- 0.10 +- 0.06 and R+(l) = 0.74 +- 0.04 +- 0.05, where the first and second errors are statistical and systematic respectively. The known branching fraction BF(D+ --> K- pi+ pi+) leads to: BF(D+ --> K*0bar e+ nu_e) = (6.7 +- 0.4 +- 0.5 +- 0.4)%, BF(D+ --> K*0bar mu+ u_mu) = (6.5 +- 0.9 +- 0.5 +- 0.4)% and BF(D+ --> K*0bar l+ nu_l) = (6.7 +- 0.4 +- 0.5 +- 0.4)%, where the third error is due to the uncertainty in BF(D+ --> K- pi+ pi+).
We report a study of the decay $D^0 to K^0_S K^0_S$ using 921~fb$^{-1}$ of data collected at or near the $Upsilon(4S)$ and $Upsilon(5S)$ resonances with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric energy $e^+e^-$ collider. The measured time-integrated $CP$ asymmetry is $ A_{CP}(D^0 to K^0_S K^0_S) = (-0.02 pm 1.53 pm 0.02 pm 0.17) %$, and the branching fraction is $mathcal{B} (D^{0}rightarrow K_{S}^{0}K_{S}^{0})$ = (1.321 $pm$ 0.023 $pm$ 0.036 $pm$ 0.044) $times$ 10$^{-4}$, where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second is systematic, and the third is due to the normalization mode ($D^0 to K_S^0 pi^0$). These results are significantly more precise than previous measurements available for this mode. The $A_{CP}$ measurement is consistent with the standard model expectation.
