Semileptonic decays of heavy baryons consisting of one heavy (Q=b,c) and two light (q=u,d,s) quarks are considered in the heavy-quark--light-diquark approximation. The relativistic quasipotential equation is used for obtaining masses and…
The transition form factors of $B_{(s)} \to S$, with $S$ denoting a scalar meson, are investigated in the light-cone sum rules approach. The numerical values are approximately twice as large as that estimated in the light-front quark model…

The semileptonic decays $\bar{B}\to D(D^*)\pi\ell\bar{\nu}$ are analyzed by heavy quark and chiral symmetries. The branching ratio is of order of a few percent for $\dpi$, but it is much smaller for $\dstar$, of order $10^{-4}-10^{-5}$. The…
Motivated by the LHCb measurement of the hyperon decay mode $\Sigma^+\to p\mu^+\mu^-$ and prospects for improvement, we revisit the estimates for the rate and muon forward-backward asymmetry within the standard model and beyond. The…
We study lepton number violating (LNV) process of muon-positron conversion in nuclei mediated by the exchange of light and heavy Majorana neutrinos. Nuclear structure calculations have been carried out for the case of experimentally…
We present a QCD-based calculation of the exclusive semileptonic decay Lambda_b -> p l nu-bar. Using the ideas of Heavy Quark Effective Theory, we discuss the factorization of the amplitude. Further, resummed Sudakov effects are put in to…
Recently there has been much interest in the tauonic semileptonic meson decays B -> D + tau + nu_tau and B -> D* + tau + nu_tau where one has found larger rates than what is predicted by the Standard Model. We analyze the corresponding…
We calculate the electron spectrum of semileptonic decays of B-mesons into non-charmed hadrons. The shape of the spectrum obtained from QCD sum rules is in general agreement with quark model calculations. At high electron energies the…
We present limits on Majoron-emitting neutrinoless double-beta decay modes based on an exposure of 112.3 days with 125 kg of Xe-136. In particular, a lower limit on the ordinary (spectral index n = 1) Majoron-emitting decay half-life of…
In models where lepton number is considered to be a spontaneously-broken global symmetry a massless Goldstone boson, the majoron (J), appears. We describe a procedure to explore the muon-electron-majoron coupling using the results from mu-e…
Using data from the NEMO-3 experiment, we have measured the two-neutrino double beta decay ($2\nu\beta\beta$) half-life of $^{82}$Se as $T_{1/2}^{2\nu} = \left[ 9.39 \pm 0.17\,\left(\mbox{stat}\right) \pm…
We report the results of a study of the exclusive semileptonic decays B->pi0lnu, B->pi+lnu, B->rho0lnu, B->rho+lnu and B->omegalnu, where l represents an electron or a muon. The events are tagged by fully reconstructing a second B meson in…
We explore the semileptonic and nonleptonic decays of doubly heavy baryons $(\Omega_{cc}^ {(*) +}, \Omega_{bb}^ {(*)0}, \Omega_{bc}^ {(*) -}, \Omega_{bc}^ {\prime 0}) $ induced by the $s\to u$ transition. Hadronic form factors are…

Deviations from the standard model prediction have been reported in various semileptonic $B$ decays mediated via $b \to c$ charged current interactions. In this context, we analyze semileptonic baryon decays $\Xi_b \to \Xi_c\,\tau\,\nu$…
We conduct a comprehensive study of the semileptonic decay process \(\Lambda \to p\,\ell\,\bar{\nu}_{\ell}\), focusing on the determination of all six vector and axial-vector form factors that govern the low-energy hadronic matrix elements…
A generalisation of the neutrinoless double beta decay process is presented. Neutrinoless double beta decay measures only one out of nine possible effective Majorana neutrino masses in case of three flavours. Limits obtained for all the…

Normal muon decay, $\mu^{+} \to e^{+}\nu_{e}\bar{\nu_{\mu}}$, is studied as a tool to discriminate between the Dirac and Majorana types of neutrinos and to survey the structure of the weak interaction. It is assumed that massive neutrinos…
