The latest search for the rare kaon decay $K^+\to\pi^+\nu\bar\nu$ by the NA62 experiment has produced evidence for it with a branching fraction consistent with the prediction of the standard model. The new result implies that in this decay,…
The decays K_{L,S} -> \pi^o \pi^o \nu \bar{\nu} and K_{L,S} -> \pi^+ \pi^- \nu \bar{\nu} involve the weak transition from a strange to a non-strange quark. Although they have considerably smaller branching ratios than those for the…
We present allowed regions in the space of observables of certain non-leptonic B-meson decays that characterize these modes within the Standard Model. A future measurement of observables lying significantly outside of these regions would…
The process e+e- ->pi+pi- has been studied with the SND detector at VEPP-2M e+e- collider in the vicinity of phi(1020) resonance. From the analysis of the energy dependence of measured cross section the branching ratio…
We propose a method to quantify the Standard Model uncertainty in B to K pi decays using the experimental data, assuming that power counting provides a reasonable estimate of the subleading terms in the 1/mb expansion. Using this method, we…
We report the results of a search for the decay $K^+ \to \pi^+ \nu \bar \nu$ in the kinematic region with $\pi^+$ momentum $140 < P < 195$ MeV/c using the data collected by the E787 experiment at BNL. No events were observed. When combined…
We have searched for the decay $K^+ \to \pi^+ \nu \bar\nu$ in the kinematic region with pion momentum below the $K^+ \to \pi^+ \pi^0$ peak. One event was observed, consistent with the background estimate of $0.73\pm 0.18$. This implies an…
Measurements of the rates for the hadronic decays B^+- -> pi K can be used to derive information on the weak phase gamma=arg(V_ub^*) in a largely model-independent way. Hadronic uncertainties can be reduced to the level of nonfactorizable…
Unparticles proposed by Georgi carry CP conserving phases in their propagators. We demonstrate that these peculiar phases have an important impact on CP violation. Without including the strong QCD phases, we study the unparticle phase…
The effects of the peculiar CP conserving phases in unparticle propagators are explored. We find that the phases have a great impact on CP-violation. We adopt the decays $B_{d}\to \pi^{+} \pi^{-}$ and $B_{d}\to \ell^{-}\ell^{+}$ as the…
Three events for the decay K+ => pi+,nu,nubar have been observed in the pion momentum region below the K+ => pi+,pi0 peak, 140 < P_pi < 199 MeV/c, with an estimated background of 0.93+-0.17(stat.)+0.32-0.24(syst.) events. Combining this…
A massless particle beyond the Standard Model is searched for in the two-body decay $\Sigma^+\rightarrow p+{\rm invisible}$ using $(1.0087\pm0.0044)\times10^{10}$ $J/\psi$ events collected at a center-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s}=3.097$ GeV…
Motivated by the new experimental information reported by the BNL--E787 Collaboration, we analyse the present impact and the future prospects opened by the measurement of $\br(K^+\to\pi^+\nu\bar\nu)$. Although still affected by a large…
We explore the strangeness-changing decays of the lightest hyperons into another baryon plus missing energy within and beyond the standard model (SM). In the SM these processes arise from the loop-induced quark transition $s\to d\nu\bar\nu$…
Using 11.6 pb^{-1} of data collected in the energy range 0.984--1.06 GeV by CMD-2 at VEPP-2M, the cross section of the reaction e+e- to pi+pi-pi+pi- has been studied. For the first time an interference pattern was observed in the energy…
Experiment E949 at Brookhaven National Laboratory studied the rare decay \$K^+\to\pi^+\nu\bar{\nu}$ and other processes with an exposure of $1.77\times 10^{12}$ $K^+$'s. The data were analyzed using a blind analysis technique yielding one…
We present a model for the decay $D^+\to K^-\pi^+\pi^+$. The weak interaction part of this reaction is described using the effective weak Hamiltonian in the factorisation approach. Hadronic final state interactions are taken into account…
The branching fraction of $D^+\to K_{S}^{0} \pi^{0}e^+\nu_e$ is measured for the first time using $7.93~\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ annihilation data collected at the center-of-mass energy $\sqrt{s}=3.773$~GeV with the BESIII detector…
We analyze the decay $K_L \to \pi^0 \nu \bar \nu$ in a model independent way. If lepton flavor is conserved the final state is (to a good approximation) purely CP even. In that case this decay mode goes mainly through CP violating…
The presence of the $(B+L)$-conserving decay modes $n \to K^+ e^-,$ $n \to K^+ \mu^-,$ $p \to K^+ e^- \pi^+$ and $p \to K^+ \mu^- \pi^+$ is shown to be a characteristic feature of a class of models with explicit breaking of $R$-parity.…
