The two-body decay rate of a weakly decaying particle (such as the kaon) is shown to be proportional to the square of a well-defined transition matrix element in finite volume. Contrary to the physical amplitude, the latter can be extracted…
Long-distance contributions to the $D^0$-$\bar D^0$ mixing parameters $x$ and $y$ are evaluated using latest data on hadronic $D^0$ decays. In particular, we take on two-body $D \to PP$ and $VP$ decays to evaluate the contributions of…

We pursue a new method, based on lattice QCD, for determining the quantities $\bar{\Lambda}$, $\lambda_1$, and $\lambda_2$ of heavy-quark effective theory. We combine Monte Carlo data for the meson mass spectrum with perturbative…

L\"uscher's method is routinely used to determine meson-meson, meson-baryon and baryon-baryon s-wave scattering amplitudes below inelastic thresholds from Lattice QCD calculations - presently at unphysical light-quark masses. In this work…
We discuss a number of old and new methods for computing $K\to\pi\pi$ amplitudes on the lattice. They all involve a non-perturbative determination of matching coefficients. We show how problems related to operator mixing can be greatly…

The vacuum--polarization contributions of ${\cal O}(b^{n-1} \al_s^n)$ to the relation between the pole--mass $M$ of a quark and the \MS parameter $\mh (M)$ are evaluated by a straightforward method. They are found to approximate very well…
Two pion decays of K mesons, K_L-K_S mass difference, two photon and the Dalitz decays of K_L are studied systematically by assuming that their amplitude is given by a sum of factorizable and non-factorizable ones. The former is estimated…
