Abstract
We have studiedD→K *0 π andD→Ka 0 decays in the factorization approximation. The spectator model leads to a color-suppression of\(D^0 \to \bar K_0^{*0} \pi ^0 \). However, due to the smallness off a 0, a similar suppression does not occur for\(D^0 \to \bar K^0 a_0^0 \). We show that the inclusion of annihilation contribution can lift the color-suppression of\(D^0 \to \bar K_0^{*0} \pi ^0 \). We also include final state interactions in a dynamical model whereK (1830) pole in the direct channel dominates the annihilation process.
