Using the CLEO II detector, we have measured the differential cross sections for exclusive two-photon production of light pseudoscalar mesons 0 , , and Ј. From our measurements we have obtained the form factors associated with the electromagnetic transitions ␥*␥→meson. We have measured these form factors in the momentum transfer ranges from 1.5 to 9, 20, and 30 GeV 2 for 0 , , and Ј, respectively, and have made comparisons to various theoretical predictions. ͓S0556-2821͑98͒01001-7͔

We have observed the decays B° -» K*(892)°j and B~ -> K*(892)~ry, which are evidence for the quark-level process b -• 57. The average branching fraction is (4.5 ± 1.5 ± 0.9) x 10~5. This value is consistent with standard model predictions from electromagnetic penguin diagrams. PACS numbers: 13.40.Hq, 14.40.Jz One-loop, flavor-changing neutral current diagrams, meson decays [1].

CLEO has studied B decays to the nal states ` , ` , and !` , wherè = e or. We fully reconstruct these modes using a measurement of the missing energy and momentum in each event to infer the neutrino momentum. With the B 0 and B + modes combined according to isospin predictions for the relative partial widths, we obtain B(B 0 ! ?`+) = (1:8 0:4 0:3 0:2) 10 ?4 and B(B 0 ! ?`+) = (2:5 0:4 +0:5 ?0:7 0:5) 10 ?4 , where the errors are statistical, systematic and the estimated model-dependence. We also estimate jV ub j = (3:3 0:2 +0:3 ?0:4 0:7) 10 ?3 .
