We report a new sensitive search for CPT violation, which includes improved measurements of the CPT-violating parameter z and the total decay-width difference normalized to the averaged width DeltaGamma_d/Gamma_d of the two Bd mass…
Precision measurements in allowed nuclear beta decays and neutron decay are reviewed and analyzed both within the Standard Model and looking for new physics. The analysis incorporates the most recent experimental and theoretical…
We report on new tests that improve our previous (2009-2010) estimates of the electron-to-proton mass ratio variation, mu = m_e/m_p. Subsequent observations (2011-2013) at the Effelsberg 100-m telescope of a sample of eight molecular cores…
A search for double $\beta$ decay of dysprosium was realized for the first time with the help of an ultra low-background HP Ge $\gamma$ detector. After 2512 h of data taking with a 322 g sample of dysprosium oxide limits on double beta…
Using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.93 fb$^{-1}$ collected at a center-of-mass energy $\sqrt{s}=3.773$ GeV by the BESIII detector, the decay $D^0 \to\omega\phi$ is observed for the first time. The branching…
If the weak equivalence principle (WEP) is broken, the measured values of the parametrized post-Newtonian parameter $\gamma$ from photons with left- and right-handed circular polarizations should differ slightly, leading to the arrival-time…
In the Standard Model (SM) we calculate the decay rate of the neutron radiative beta decay to order "O(\alpha^2/\pi^2 ~ 10^{-5})", where "\alpha$"is the fine--structure constant, and radiative corrections to order "O(\alpha/\pi ~ 10^{-3})".…
The time-dependent CP asymmetries in fully reconstructed B0 --> D(*)pi/rho decays (new preliminary result), and in partially reconstructed B0 --> D(*)pi decays, are measured with the BaBar detector at the PEP-II asymmetric B factory at…
A precise measurement of the neutron decay $\beta$-asymmetry $A_0$ has been carried out using polarized ultracold neutrons (UCN) from the pulsed spallation UCN source at the Los Alamos Neutron Science Center (LANSCE). Combining data…
We give predictions for the neutrinoless double beta decay rate in a simple variant of the A_4 family symmetry model. We show that there is a lower bound for the neutrinoless double beta decay amplitude even in the case of normal…
The BESIII collaboration here reports the first observation of polarized $\Lambda$ and $\bar{\Lambda}$ hyperons produced in two different processes: i) the resonant $e^+e^- \to J/\psi\to\Lambda\bar{\Lambda}$, using a data sample of 1.31…
Experimental studies of neutron decay, $n\to pe\bar\nu$, exhibit two anomalies. The first is a 8.6(2.1)s, roughly $4\sigma$ difference between the average beam measured neutron lifetime, $\tau_n^\text{beam}=888.0(2.0)$s, and the more…
A novel test of time-reversal invariance in proton-deuteron scattering is planned as an internal target transmission experiment at the cooler synchrotron COSY. The P-even, T-odd observable is the polarization correlation $A_{y,xz}$ of the…
Present probes do not exclude that the neutron ($n$) oscillation into mirror neutron ($n'$), a sterile state exactly degenerate in mass with the neutron, can be a very fast process, in fact faster than the neutron decay itself. This process…
The isovector time-reversal- and parity-violating pion-nucleon coupling $\bar{g}_{\pi}^{(1)}$ is uniquely sensitive to dimension six interactions between right-handed light quarks and the Standard Model Higgs doublet that naturally arises…
An indirect CP-violation neutrino factory experiment is studied, including simul taneous correlations of errors of the six oscillation parameters and a matter ef fect normalisation parameter, C. It is found that for larger values of…

Recently, it was proposed to use measurements of Bd(t) -> D(*)+ D(*)- and Bd -> Ds(*)+ D(*)- decays to measure the CP phase gamma. In this paper, we present the extraction of gamma using this method. We find that gamma is favored to lie in…
