Additional evidence for the rare kaon decay K+ to pi+ neutrino-antineutrino has been found in a new data set with comparable sensitivity to the previously reported result. One new event was observed in the pion momentum region examined, 211<P<229 MeV/c, bringing the total for the combined data set to two. Including all data taken, the backgrounds were estimated to contribute 0.15 pm 0.05 events. The branching ratio is B=1.57^{+1.75}_{-0.82} 10^{-10}.

A search for additional evidence for the rare kaon decay K^+ --> pi^+ nu nubar has been made with a new data set comparable in sensitivity to the previous exposure that produced a single event.
Using $2.93 rm fb^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ collision data collected at a center-of-mass energy of 3.773 GeV with the BESIII detector, the first observation of the doubly Cabibbo-suppressed decay $D^+to K^+pi^+pi^-pi^0$ is reported. After removing decays tha t contain narrow intermediate resonances, including $D^+to K^+eta$, $D^+to K^+omega$, and $D^+to K^+phi$, the branching fraction of the decay $D^+to K^+pi^+pi^-pi^0$ is measured to be $(1.13 pm 0.08_{rm stat} pm 0.03_{rm syst})times 10^{-3}$. The ratio of branching fractions of $D^+to K^+pi^+pi^-pi^0$ over $D^+to K^-pi^+pi^+pi^0$ is found to be $(1.81pm0.15)$%, which corresponds to $(6.28pm0.52)tan^4theta_C$, where $theta_C$ is the Cabibbo mixing angle. This ratio is significantly larger than the corresponding ratios for other doubly Cabibbo-suppressed decays. The asymmetry of the branching fractions of charge-conjugated decays $D^pmto K^pmpi^pmpi^mppi^0$ is also determined, and no evidence of $CP$ violation is found. In addition, the first evidence of the $D^+to K^+omega$ decay, with a statistical significance of 3.3$sigma$, is presented and its decay branching fraction is determined to be $({5.7^{+2.5}_{-2.1}}_{rm stat}pm0.2_{rm syst})times10^{-5}$.
Using a data sample of 980~fb$^{-1}$ collected with the Belle detector operating at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+e^-$ collider, we present evidence for the $Omega(2012)^-$ in the resonant substructure of $Omega_{c}^{0} to pi^+ (bar{K}Xi)^{-}$ ($(ba r{K}Xi)^{-}$ = $K^-Xi^0$ + $bar{K}^0 Xi^-$) decays. The significance of the $Omega(2012)^-$ signal is 4.2$sigma$ after considering the systematic uncertainties. The ratio of the branching fraction of $Omega_{c}^{0} to pi^{+} Omega(2012)^- to pi^+ (bar{K}Xi)^{-}$ relative to that of $Omega_{c}^{0} to pi^{+} Omega^-$ is calculated to be 0.220 $pm$ 0.059(stat.) $pm$ 0.035(syst.). The individual ratios of the branching fractions of the two isospin modes are also determined, and found to be ${cal B}(Omega_{c}^0 to pi^+ Omega(2012)^-) times {cal B}(Omega(2012)^- to K^-Xi^0)/{cal B}(Omega_{c}^0 to pi^+ K^- Xi^0)$ = (9.6 $pm$ 3.2(stat.) $pm$ 1.8(syst.))% and ${cal B}(Omega_{c}^0 to pi^+ Omega(2012)^-) times {cal B}(Omega(2012)^- to bar{K}^0 Xi^-)/{cal B}(Omega_{c}^0 to pi^+ bar{K}^0 Xi^-)$ = (5.5 $pm$ 2.8(stat.) $pm$ 0.7(syst.))%.
We report a study of the suppressed decay B^- -> DK^-, D -> K^+pi^-pi^0, where D denotes either a D^0 or a bar{D}^0 meson. The decay is sensitive to the CP-violating parameter phi_3. Using a data sample of 772 x 10^6 Bbar{B} pairs collected at the Up silon(4S) resonance with the Belle detector, we measure the ratio of branching fractions of the above suppressed decay to the favored decay B^- -> DK^-, D -> K^-pi^+pi^0. Our result is R_{DK} = [1.98 +/- 0.62(stat.) +/- 0.24(syst.)] x 10^{-2}, which indicates the first evidence of the signal for this suppressed decay with a significance of 3.2 standard deviations. We measure the direct CP asymmetry between the suppressed B^- and B^+ decays to be A_{DK} = 0.41 +/- 0.30 (stat.) +/- 0.05 (syst.). We also report measurements for the analogous quantities R_{Dpi} and A_{Dpi} for the decay B^- -> Dpi^-, D -> K^+pi^-pi^0.
The suppressed decay chain B- -> DK-, D -> K+pi-, where D indicates a anti-D0 or D0 state, provides important information on the CP-violating angle phi_3. We measure the ratio R_{DK} of the decay rates to the favored mode B- -> DK-, D -> K-pi+ to be R_{DK} = [1.63^{+0.44}_{-0.41}(stat)^{+0.07}_{-0.13}(syst)] x 10^{-2}, which indicates the first evidence of the signal with a significance of 4.1sigma. We also measure the asymmetry A_{DK} between the charge-conjugate decays to be A_{DK} = -0.39^{+0.26}_{-0.28}(stat)^{+0.04}_{-0.03}(syst). The results are based on the full 772 x 10^6 B anti-B pair data sample collected at the Upsilon(4S) resonance with the Belle detector.
