We report the first direct measurement of the $^{14}\text{O}$ superallowed Fermi $\beta$-decay $Q_{EC}$-value, the last of the so-called "traditional nine" superallowed Fermi $\beta$-decays to be measured with Penning trap mass…
We present the first combined analysis of the statistical rate function f in superallowed beta decays with ab initio calculations and data. We focus on C10 to 10B, 14O to 14N and 26mAl to 26Mg, all of which are important channels for the…
We employ, within the framework of Skyrme energy-density functional theory, the subtracted second random-phase approximation, recently developed for charge-exchange excitations, to compute $\beta$-decay half-lives in four nuclei, $^{24}$O,…
We perform a thorough analysis of the $\eta-\eta'$ mixing effects on the $\Lambda_b\rightarrow \Lambda \eta^{(')}$ decays based on the perturbative QCD (PQCD) factorization approach. Branching ratios, up-down and direct $CP$ asymmetries are…

Nuclear weak-interaction rates are known to exert a prominent effect in the late-stages of stellar collapse. Despite their importance, most studies to date on core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe) have focused primarily on the effects of…
We report on the calculation of the neutrinoless double-beta decay nuclear matrix element for 76Ge within the framework of the realistic shell model. The effective shell-model Hamiltonian and the two-body transition operator describing the…
Refined calculations of the radial mismatch correction, $\delta_{C2}$, to superallowed $0^+\rightarrow0^+$ nuclear $\beta$ decay are performed using the shell model with realistic Woods-Saxon radial wave functions. Two important…
The rare decay $\bar B_d^0\to J/\psi \phi$ can proceed in four distinct mechanisms: (i) production of the $\phi$ via tri-gluon fusion, (ii) photoproduction of the $J/\psi$ or $\phi$, (iii) final-state rescattering of $D_s^{(*)}D_s^{(*)}$…
We analyze the recent data on the non-mesonic decays of light Lambda-hypernuclei up to ^12_Lambda C using the phenomenological model of Block and Dalitz. Fitting the spin-isospin dependent Lambda N -> NN reaction rates to six data points,…
The $\beta$ and double-$\beta$ decay channels, which are not accompanied by excitation of the electron shells, are suppressed due to the nonorthogonality of the electron wave functions of the parent and daughter atoms. The effect is…
We explore the validity of vector meson dominance in the radiative decay of the $b_1(1235)$ meson. In order to explain the violation of the vector meson dominance hypothesis in this decay process, we investigate a model where the $b_1$…
It was recently shown that our peculiar velocity \beta with respect to the CMB induces mixing among multipoles and off-diagonal correlations at all scales which can be used as a measurement of \beta, which is independent of the standard…
A systematic analysis of the L-dependence of the J/psi-suppression in the data of the CERN NA38 and NA50 experiments shows that the anomalous suppression in the 1995 Pb-Pb data is at best a 4$\sigma$ effect at any of the L-values for the…
