The phenomenon of neutrino flavor oscillations motivates searches for sterile neutrinos in a broad range masses and mixing-parameter values. A $N$ that mixes predominantly with the $\tau$ is particularly challenging experimentally. To address this challenge, we propose new method to search $\nu_\tau$-mixing lighter than lepton. uses large $e^+e^-\to\tau^+\tau^-$ samples collected at $B$-factory experiments produce $\tau$-lepton decays. We exploit long lifetime mass suppress background apply...

Quantum-correlated psi(3770)->DDbar decays collected by the CLEO-c experiment are used to perform first measurements of F+, fractional CP-even content self-conjugate D->pi+pi-pi0 and D->K+K-pi0. Values 0.968 +/- 0.017 0.006 0.731 0.058 0.021 obtained for pi+pi-pi0 K+K-pi0, respectively. It is demonstrated how modes this sort can be cleanly included in unitarity triangle angle gamma using B+/- -> D K+/- decays. The high pi+pi-pi0, particular, makes a promising mode improving precision on gamma.
