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…

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,…
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…
The decays of the eta meson are reviewed in the framework of Chiral Perturbation Theory. Particular attention is devoted to the electromagnetic channels involving photons, either in the final or intermediate states.
The following topics are considered. 1. Confinement, chiral dynamics and light scalar mesons. 2. $\phi$-meson radiative decays about nature of light scalar resonances. Arguments in favor of the four-quark model of the $a_0(980)$ and…
We consider the rare decay $\eta\to\pi^0\pi^0\gamma\gamma$ and calculate the non-resonant contribution to the amplitude to one loop in Chiral Perturbation Theory. We display our result as both a diphoton energy spectrum and a partial decay…
Encouraged by a recent observation of the B_c^+ -> B_s^0 + pi^+ decay by the LHCb collaboration we present the meson dominance predictions for other weak decays of the B_c^+ into B_s^0 or B^0 in the form of branching ratios to the observed…
Simple dynamics, few available decay channels, and extremely well controlled radiative and loop corrections, make pion and muon decays a sensitive means for testing the underlying symmetries, the universality of weak fermion couplings, as…

We propose an approach for calculating $K\to\pi\pi$ decays to the next-to-leading order in chiral expansion. A detailed numerical study of this approach is being performed.
