We present preliminary results from a search for the rare, flavor-changing neutral current decays B to K l+ l- and B to K* l+ l-, where l+ l- is either an e+ e- or mu+ mu- pair. The data sample comprises (84.4 +- 0.9) X 10e6 upsilon(4S) to…
We give detailed results of $\mathcal{O}(\alpha)$ QED corrections (both real emission and virtual corrections) to $B\to K\ell^+\ell^-$ modes. Requiring the real emission to be gauge invariant, the structure of the contact term(s) is fixed.…

The radiative decay $K^+ \to \pi^+ \pi^0 \gamma$ ($K_{\pi 2 \gamma}$) has been measured with stopped positive kaons. A $K_{\pi 2 \gamma}$ sample containing 4k events was analyzed, and the $K_{\pi 2 \gamma}$ branching ratio of the direct…
Inverse muon decay ($\nu_\mu e^- \to \nu_e \mu^-$) is a promising tool to constrain neutrino fluxes with energies $E_{\nu} \ge 10.9~\mathrm{GeV}$. Radiative corrections introduce percent-level distortions to energy spectra of outgoing muons…
The effects due to soft-photon emission (and the related virtual corrections) in multi-body decays of B, D, and K mesons are analysed. We present analytic expressions for the universal O(alpha) correction factors which can be applied to all…

Radiative corrections to $B \to D \ell \nu_{\ell}$ decays can have an impact on predictions and measurements of the lepton universality ratios $\mathcal{R}(D^+)$ and $\mathcal{R}(D^0)$. These proceedings summarise a study on the comparison…
We have recalculated the Mikaelian and Smith radiative corrections to the Dalitz decay $\pi^0\to e^+e^-\gamma$ beyond the soft-photon approximation, i.e. over the whole range of the Dalitz plot and with no restrictions on the radiative…
We consider the O(alpha^2) hadronic corrections to the energy spectrum of the decay electron in muon decay. We find that the correction can be described, within good approximation, by a linear function in the electron energy. Explicit…
We show that the radiative corrections containing terms up to order $\alpha q / \pi M_1$ for unpolarized semileptonic decays of baryons with positron emission can be obtained by simply reversing the sign of the axial-vector form factors in…
We evaluate the O(alpha) QED corrections to the recoil electron energy spectrum in the process nu_l + e --> nu_l + e (+gamma), where (+gamma) indicates the possible emission of a photon and l=e, mu or tau. The soft and hard bremsstrahlung…
