Motivated by the recent measurement of the dimuon asymmetry by the D{\O} collaboration, which could be interpreted as an enhanced decay rate difference in the neutral $B_d$-meson system, we investigate the possible size of new-physics…
A comment to the paper by S. Chen, H. B\"uttner, and J. Voit, [Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 87}, 087205 (2001)].
We reply to a recent comment by Bhattacharya et. al. (cond-mat/9812290) on our previous Letter (PRL 81, 5640 (1998)).
We study potential New Physics effects in the $\bar B \to D^{(*)} \tau \bar\nu$ decays. As a particular example of New Physics models we consider the class of leptoquark models and put the constraints on the leptoquark couplings using the…
In this work, we comment on two special points in the paper by S. Ghosh [Phys. Rev. D 74, 084019 (2006)]. First of all, the Lagrangian presented by the author does not describe the Magueijo- Smolin model of Doubly Special Relativity since…
Right Handed (RH) rotations are not observable in the standard model (SM). The freedom is used to give the phenomenologically correct mass matrices all kind of different forms and this is one of the reasons for the proliferation of models…
We examine the impact of D-Dbar mixing in the extraction of the angle gamma of the unitarity triangle with B- ->D(*)K(*)- and B- ->D(*)pi- decays. We point out that the leading corrections, linear in the small mixing parameters x=Delta…
The possibility of using the charm system to search for new physics is addressed. Phenomena such as $D^0-\bar D^0$ mixing and rare decays of charmed mesons are first examined in the Standard Model to test our present understanding and to…
The UV/IR mixing in the \lambda \phi^4 model on a non-commutative (NC) space leads to new predictions in perturbation theory, including Hartree-Fock type approximations. Among them there is a changed phase diagram and an unusual behavior of…
We show that the numerical code used in the above mentioned paper does not take into account the multiple scattering effects of electromagnetic field properly and is therefore incorrect.
We review the theoretical status of the lifetime ratios $\tau_{B^+} / \tau_{B_d}$, $\tau_{B_s} / \tau_{B_d}$, $\tau_{\Lambda_b} / \tau_{B_d}$ and $\tau_{B_c}$ and of the mixing quantities $\Delta M_s$, $\Delta \Gamma_s$ and $\phi_s$.…
Observables in the $D^0-\bar{D}^0$ mixing can be theoretically analyzed by the operator product expansion (OPE), in which $1/m_c$ is regarded as an expansion parameter. Since the contributions of four-quark operators are strongly suppressed…
The goal of this article is to outline the advantages of the measurement of left-right asymmetries in lepton-lepton ($l^{-}l^{-}\to l^{-}l^{-}$) scattering for performing precision measurements of $\sin^2 \theta_W$ and the discovery of…
In this paper, we present the differential decay distributions for $\bar B \to D^{(*)} \ell \bar{X}$ decays with a massive right-handed neutrino in the low-energy effective field theory framework and show how the massive effects of the RH…
The possibility of using charm meson physics to test the Standard Model (SM) is reviewed. In the case of $D^0-\bar{D}^0$ mixing, the SM contributions are carefully considered and the existence of a window for the observation of new physics…
We show that in TeV-scale left-right (L-R) symmetric seesaw models, there are new dominant contributions to the collider signals of heavy Majorana neutrinos arising from the heavy-light neutrino mixing, which directly probe the seesaw…
At the present time, there are hints of new physics (NP) in several observables involving $b \to c \ell^- {\bar\nu}_\ell$ decays. In this talk, I describe measurable angular distributions for ${\bar B} \to D^* \mu^- {\bar\nu}_\mu$ and…
We review the current status of theoretical predictions for mixing quantities and lifetimes in the $B$-sector. In particular, due to the first non-zero measurement of the decay rate difference in the neutral $B_s$-system, $\Delta \Gamma_s/…
In a series of recent publications, a new approach to the non-relativistic reduction of the electromagnetic current operator in calculations of electro-nuclear reactions has been introduced. In one of these papers, the conjecture that at…
