The anomaly (cusp) in the mass spectrum of two neutral pions from the three-pion decays of charged kaon has been observed in the NA48/2 experiment. Using the recently developed interpretation of this effect in terms of Chiral Perturbative…
In arxiv: 2102.05575 a two-step process $pn \to (pp) \pi^- \to (\Delta N) \pi^- \to (d \pi^+) \pi^-$ was calculated by using experimental total cross sections for the single-pion production processes $pn \to pp \pi^-(I=0)$ and $pp \to d…
We develop a theory of the EPR-like effects due to neutrino oscillations in the $\pi \to \mu\nu$ decays. Its experimental implications are space-time correlations of neutrino and muon when they are both detected, while the pion decay point…
The decay widths of four-body double-pion decays $\ds\to pn \pi^0\pi^0$, $\ds\to pn \pi^+\pi^-$, and iso-scalar parts of $\ds\to pp \pi^0\pi^-$ and $\ds\to nn \pi^+\pi^0$ are explicitly calculated with the help of the $d^*$ wave function…
A search for mixing in the neutral D meson system was performed using semileptonic D^0 -> K- e+ nu decays. The flavor of neutral D mesons at production was tagged by the charge of the slow pion from the decay D*+ -> D^0 \pi+. The…

The single-pion production reactions $pp\to d\pi^+$, $pp\to np\pi^+$ and $pp\to pp\pi^0$ were measured at a beam momentum of 0.95 GeV/c ($T_p \approx$ 400 MeV) using the short version of the COSY-TOF spectrometer. The central calorimeter…
We present measurements of decay matrix elements for hadronic transitions of the form Upsilon(nS) -> pi pi Upsilon(mS) where (n, m) = (3, 1), (2, 1), and (3, 2). We reconstruct charged and neutral pion modes with the final state Upsilon…
By analyzing an electron-positron collision data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $2.93\,\rm fb^{-1}$ taken at the center-of-mass energy of 3.773 GeV with the BESIII detector, we obtain for the first time the absolute…
In the paper, we investigate the charmed meson rare decay process $D^+ \to \pi^+\nu\bar\nu$ by using QCD sum rules approach. Firstly, the pion twist-2 and twist-3 distribution amplitude $\xi$-moments $\langle\xi_{2;\pi}^n\rangle|_\mu$ up to…
We report a study of the decay $B^0\rightarrow D K^+\pi^-$ followed by $D\rightarrow K^-\pi^+$, where $D$ indicates $D^0$ or $\bar{D}^0$. We reconstruct the $D K^+\pi^-$ state in a phase space corresponding to $D K^{*}(892)^0$. The…
The dynamics of the process $ e^+e^- \to \pi^+\pi^-\pi^0 $ is studied in the energy region from 1.15 to 2.00 GeV using data accumulated with the SND detector at the VEPP-2000 $e^+e^-$ collider. The Dalitz plot distribution and $\pi^+\pi^-$…
We present a determination of the mass, width and coupling of the strange resonances appearing in pion-kaon scattering below 1.8 GeV, namely the much debated $K^*_0(800)$ or $\kappa$, the scalar $K^*_0(1430)$, the $K^*(892)$ and $K^*(1410)$…
The pion decay constants of the lowest orbitally excited states of the nucleon and the $\Delta(1232)$ along with the corresponding axial transition form factors are calculated with Poincar\'e covariant constituent-quark models with instant,…
We study rare three- and four-body kaon decays as a probe of light vector and axial-vector bosons coupled to non-conserved currents. We find that searches for $K_L \to \pi^0 \pi^0 (X\to e^+e^-)$ decays constrain the couplings of light $X$…
We present our result for the $K\to\pi\pi$ decay amplitudes for both the $\Delta I=1/2$ and $3/2$ processes with the improved Wilson fermion action. Expanding on the earlier works by Bernard {\it et al.} and by Donini {\it et al.}, we show…
In order to directly compute physical two-pion K-decay amplitudes using lattice methods we must prepare a two-pion state with non-zero relative momentum. Building upon a proposal of Lellouch and L\"uscher, we describe a finite-volume method…
A separable potential model of three coupled channels (pion-pion, kaon-antikaon and an effective four pion) has been constructed and applied in the analysis of the isoscalar S-wave pion-pion and kaon-antikaon phase shifts and inelasticities…
