Rare decays of K mesons are reviewed from the perspective of testing the ``ones'' and ``zeros'' of the standard model. Decays K^+ -> pi^+ nu anti-nu and K_L -> pi^0 nu anti-nu probe the one-loop effective Hamiltonian for s -> d nu anti-nu,…
Effective chiral theory of mesons is applied to study the four decay modes of $\tau\to\rho\pi\pi\nu$. Theoretical values of the branching ratios are in agreement with the data. The theory predicts that the $a_{1}$ resonance plays a dominant…
We present the results of a search for relations between observables that are independent of the Chiral Perturbation Theory (ChPT) Next-to-Next-to-Leading Order (NNLO) Low-Energy Constants (LECs). We have found some relations between…
In framework of the chiral perturbation theory we obtain the phenomenological relations between decay branches of rare radiative kaon to pion and leptons $K^+ \to \pi^+ l^+ l^-$ and $K^0_S \to \pi^0 l^+ l^-$ and meson form factors. The…

$K_{\ell4}$ are for several reasons an especially interesting decay channel of $K$ mesons: $K_{\ell4}$ decays allow an accurate measurement of a combination of $S$-wave $\pi\pi$ scattering lengths, one form factor of the decay is connected…
The $\eta \to \pi^+ \pi^- \pi^0 \gamma$ decay is discussed in the general context of Chiral Perturbation Theory (ChPT), assuming that the low--energy constants (counter--terms) are saturated by vector-meson resonances. The $\eta \to \pi^+…

The \tau \to \omega,\phi \pi^- \nu_\tau decays of the \tau lepton are studied using the method of phenomenological SU(3) * SU(3) chiral Lagrangians. It is shown that the obtained value for the \tau \to \phi \pi \nu_\tau decay probability is…
This paper describes the calculation of the electromagnetic form factor of the K0 meson at order p^6 of chiral perturbation theory which is the next-to-leading order correction to the well-known p^4 result achieved by Gasser and Leutwyler.…
We study the radiative pion decay of $\pi ^{+} \to e^{+}\nu_{e}\gamma$ in the chiral perturbation theory (ChPT) and light front quark model (LFQM). The vector and axial-vector hadronic form factors ($F_{V,A}$) for the $\pi\to\gamma$…
We study the phenomenology of the \tau^- \to \pi^- \nu_\tau \ell^+ \ell^- decays (\ell = e, \mu), predicting the respective branching ratios and di-lepton invariant-mass spectra. In addition to the model-independent (QED) contributions, we…
We study the rho^0 and phi decays into pi^+ pi^- gamma, pi^0 pi^0 gamma and phi into pi^0 eta gamma using a chiral unitary approach to deal with the final state interaction of the M M system. The final state interaction modifies only…

Corrections to $K_{L}^{0}\rightarrow \pi^{0} \gamma \gamma$ decay induced by scalar meson exchange are studied within chiral perturbation theory. In spite of bad knowledge of scalar-mesons parameters, the calculated branching ratio can be…
This work aims to review several aspects of the current status of the rare $\pi^0\to e^+e^-$ decay. A particular emphasis is made on radiative corrections and detailed interpretation of related quantities, some numbers appearing in the…
In this paper we study two kinds of tau decays: (a) tau- --> (rho pi-,omega pi-, phi pi-, K*0 K-) nu(tau), which belong to Delta S=0 processes and (b) Delta S = 1 processes, like tau- --> (rho K-, omega K-, phi K-, \bar{K*0} pi-) nu(tau),…

The N*(1440) -> N pi pi decay is studied by making use of the chiral reduction formula. This formula suggests a scalar-isoscalar pion-baryon contact interaction which is absent in the recent study of Hern{\'a}ndez et al. The contact…
