The resonant structure of the four pion final state in the decay $\tau \to 3\pi\pi^0\nu_\tau$ is analyzed using 4.27 million $\tau^+\tau^-$ pairs collected by the CLEO II experiment. We search for second class currents in the decay $\tau…
We extract the P-wave pi-pi phase shift for five values of pion relative momenta, which gives information on the rho resonance. The Breit-Wigner formula describes the pi-pi phase shift dependence nicely and we extract m(rho)=792(7)(8) MeV…

The pion mass difference generates a pronounced cusp in K --> 3 pi decays. As has recently been pointed out by Cabibbo and Isidori, an accurate measurement of the cusp may allow one to pin down the S-wave pi pi scattering lengths to high…

Studies of D and B mesons decays into hadrons have been used to test the standard model in the last fifteen years. A heavy meson decay involves the combined effects of a primary weak vertex and subsequent hadronic final state interactions,…

We calculate the decay $\eta\to3\pi$ at next-to-next-to-leading order or order $p^6$ in Chiral Perturbation Theory. The corrections are somewhat larger than was indicated by dispersive estimates. We present numerical results for the Dalitz…
An enhanced phenomenological model that includes isospin-symmetry breaking is presented in this letter. The model is then used in a number of statistical fits to the most recent experimental data for the radiative transitions $V\!P\gamma$…
We consider the impact of isospin violation on the analysis of K-> pi pi decays. We scrutinize, in particular, the phenomenological role played by the additional weak amplitude, of |Delta I|=5/2 in character, incurred by the presence of…
The electric ${\alpha}_{\pi}$ and magnetic ${\beta}_{\pi}$ charged pion Compton polarizabilities are of fundamental interest in the low-energy sector of quantum chromodynamics (QCD). They characterize the induced dipole moments of the pion…

Quasi two-body decays B^0(t)-> a_1^{+-}(1260) pi^{-+} identified by four charged pions determine a phase alpha_eff, which is equal to the weak phase alpha in the limit of vanishing penguin amplitudes. Applying flavor SU(3) to these decays…
