Charmless Non-Leptonic Multi-Body B decays

Abstract

I review the theoretical and phenomenological status of two- and three-body charmless non-leptonic B decays, with an emphasis on factorization approaches. Most of the material presented here is based on talks given by the participants of the workshop "Future Challenges in Non-Leptonic B Decays: Theory and Experiment", held at Bad Honnef in February 2016.
