A nonconventional $U(1)_{e-\mu}$ gauge model is proposed to explain the unexpected anomalous magnetic moments of the electron and muon (lepton $g-2$), where only the right-handed electron and muon in the standard model carry the…

We analyze $K \to \pi\pi\gamma$ decays in the framework of Chiral Perturbation Theory. We study the different Dalitz plot distributions, trying to find regions where o($p^6$) contributions could be more easily detected. To fulfill this…
K -> Pi Pi decays are investigated in the framework of the SU(2)left x U(1) gauge theory of J=0 mesons proposed in ref.[1], to which is added an interaction between mesons respecting the two symmetries generally attributed to strong…
The entropy properties are analyzed by Ma's coincidence method in $\pi^{+}\rp$ and $\rK^{+}\rp$ collisions of the NA22 experiment at 250 GeV/$c$ incident momentum. By using the R\'{e}nyi entropies, we test the scaling law and additivity…
Using data from the FOCUS (E831) experiment at Fermilab, we present a new measurement for the branching ratios of the Cabibbo-suppressed decay modes D0-->Pi-Pi+ and D0-->K-K+. We measured: Gamma(D0-->K-K+)/Gamma(D0-->Pi-Pi+) = 2.81 +/-…
We present preliminary results of a partial-wave analysis of $\tau^-\to\pi^-\pi^-\pi^+\nu_\tau$ using data from the Belle experiment at the KEKB $\mathrm{e}^+\mathrm{e}^-$ collider. We validate our model with a model-independent analysis.…
We calculate the radiative corrections to the decays $\tau\to M \nu_\tau$ and $\pi \to l \nu_\l$, where the meson $M$ is $M=\pi$ or $K$ and the lepton $l$ is $l = e$ or $\mu$. We perform a complete calculation, which includes internal…
We present the matrix elements for the semileptonic kaon decays $K_{l2\gamma}$, $K_{l2l^+l^-}$, $K_{l2l'^+l'^-}$, $K_{l3}$, $K_{l3\gamma}$ and $K_{l4}$ at next-to-leading order in chiral perturbation theory and compare the predictions with…
The very clean theoretical predictions for the rare decays K --> pi nu nu_bar and KL --> pi0 l+ l- are reviewed, and their various theoretical inputs summarized. The less favorable situation for KL --> mu+ mu- is also commented.
The leading-order electromagnetic and strong isospin-breaking corrections to the ratio of $K_{\mu 2}$ and $\pi_{\mu 2}$ decay rates are evaluated for the first time on the lattice, following a method recently proposed. The lattice results…
We study the $K \to 2 \pi$ decays using the $U_L(3) \times U_R(3)$ version of the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model with the effective $\Delta S = 1$ nonleptonic weak interaction. The $\Delta I = {3/2}$ amplitude is in reasonable agreement with…
We have calculated the O(alpha) radiative corrections to the tau decay tau -> pi (K) nu, taking into account both the point meson contribution and the structure dependent radiation. We find for the ratio Gamma(tau -> pi nu (gamma)) /…

A recent lattice evaluation of $\varepsilon'/\varepsilon$, finding a 2.1 $\sigma$ deviation from the experimental value, has revived the old debate about a possible $\varepsilon'/\varepsilon$ anomaly. The unfounded claims of a too low…
We study the $K_L$ and $K_S$ decays into four leptons ($e\bar{e}e\bar{e}, \, \mu\bar{\mu}\mu\bar{\mu},\, e\bar{e}\mu\bar{\mu}$) where we use a form factor motivated by vector meson dominance, and show the dependence of the branching ratios…
A review of the experimental and theoretical determinations of the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon is given. The anomaly is defined by a=(g-2)/2, where the Land\'e g-factor is the proportionality constant that relates the spin to the…
We perform a full amplitude analysis of B0 -> psi' K+ pi- decays, with psi' -> mu+ mu- or e+ e-, to constrain the spin and parity of the Z(4430)-. The J^P=1+ hypothesis is favored over the 0-, 1-, 2- and 2+ hypotheses at the levels of 3.4…
The deviation of the measurement of $R_{D}$ ($R_{D^{*}}$) from the Standard Model (SM) expectation is $2.3\sigma$ ($3.1\sigma$). $R_{D}$ ($R_{D^{*}}$) is the ratio of the branching fraction of $\overline{B} \rightarrow…
