We give the first full next-to-leading order analytical results in Chiral Perturbation Theory for the charged Kaon K \to 3 pi slope g and decay rates CP-violating asymmetries. We have included the dominant Final State Interactions at NLO…
We consider spontaneous CP violation in the Next to Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model, without the usual $Z_3$ discrete symmetry. CP violation can occur at tree level, raising a potential conflict with the experimental bounds on the…
In this paper, we analyze the possible anomalous $tcZ$ coupling effects in the $b \to s $ mediated decays $\bar B \to \bar K^* \mu^+ \mu^-$ and $B_s \to \mu^+ \mu^-$. After exploiting the available experimental data, the combined…
The quantum interference between the decays of entangled neutral kaons is studied in the process $\phi\rightarrow K_S K_L \rightarrow\pi^+\pi^-\pi^+\pi^-$, which exhibits the characteristic Einstein--Podolsky--Rosen correlations that…
The NA48/2 experiment at CERN collected a large sample of charged kaon decays into final states with multiple charged particles in 2003--2004. A new upper limit on the rate of the lepton number violating decay…
We study analytically the dynamics of a $d$-dimensional Klein-Gordon lattice with periodic boundary conditions, for $d \leq 3$. We consider initial data supported on one low-frequency Fourier mode. We show that, in the continuous…
Low-energy experiments studying single beta decay can serve as sensitive probes of Lorentz invariance that can complement interferometric searches for deviations from this spacetime symmetry. Experimental signatures of a dimension-three…
The success of the quantum level predictions of the Standard Model on the $Z$ boson properties, on $\mw$ and on $\mt$, which makes use of the muon lifetime as an input, implies a stringent constraint on new physics contributions to the…
Rare Kaon decays and CP violation are important tools to test the Standard Model and its extensions. We describe kaon physics observables testing CP violation and more generally short distance physics. Channels under consideration will be K…
The present status of CP violation in decays of neutral kaons is reviewed. In addition selected rare decays of both K and B mesons are discussed. The emphasis is in particular on observables that can be reliably calculated and thus offer…
We consider the distribution of the non-Gaussian signal induced by weak lensing on the primary total intensity cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropies. Our study focuses on the three point statistics exploiting an harmonic analysis…
A massive neutrino which decays after recombination (t > 10^{13} sec) into relativistic decay products produces an enhanced integrated Sachs-Wolfe effect, allowing constraints to be placed on such neutrinos from present cosmic microwave…
The Grossman-Nir bound concept is robust, but the common perception of $K_L \to \pi^0\nu\bar\nu < 1.4 \times 10^{-9}$ may be circumvented. Because of the blinding $K\pi2$(3) decay, $K^+$ decay experiments such as E787/E949 and the currently…
We re-investigate the radiative charged kaon decay K+- --> pi0 e+- nu_e gamma in chiral perturbation theory, merging the chiral expansion with Low's theorem. We thoroughly analyze the precision of the predicted branching ratio relative to…
Neutral kaons oscillations in a Schwarzschild spacetime are analyzed. The interplay between two oscillations: (i) mixing associated with second order weak coupling and (ii) strange quark's zitterbewegung, introduces a coupling responsible…
Non-leptonic kaon decays are often described through an effective chiral weak Hamiltonian, whose couplings ("low-energy constants") encode all non-perturbative QCD physics. It has recently been suggested that these low-energy constants…
The exclusive (B -> K_2 l^+ l^-) decay is studied using the most general, model independent four-fermion interaction. The sensitivity of the ratio of the decay widths when K_2 meson is longitudinally and transversally polarized, the…
The semileptonic kaon decays $K_{l2\gamma}$ and $K_{l3}$ are considered. We use the most general forms of the matrix elements for these decays. Additional terms could arise as a result of new tensor interactions between quarks and leptons.…
We present an analysis of the cosmological evolution of matter sources with small anisotropic pressures. This includes electric and magnetic fields, collisionless relativistic particles, gravitons, antisymmetric axion fields in low-energy…
In this report I will present the recent results on K mesons from the KLOE experiment at the DAFNE e+e- collider working at the center of mass energy ~1GeV ~m_{phi}. They include V_{us} determinations, the test on the unitarity of the first…
