The rare decays $\eta^{(\prime)}\to\ell^+\ell^-$, $\ell\in\{e,\mu\}$, are highly suppressed in the Standard Model, both by their chirality structure and the required loop attaching the lepton line to the $\eta^{(\prime)}\to\gamma^*\gamma^*$…

If massive sterile neutrinos exist, their decays into photons and/or electron-positron pairs may give rise to observable consequences. We consider the possibility that MeV sterile neutrino decays lead to the diffuse positron annihilation…

Neutrinoless double beta decay, if detected, would prove that neutrinos are Majorana fermions and provide the direct evidence for lepton number violation. If such decay would exist in nature, then $\pi^-\pi^-\to ee$ and $\pi^-\to\pi^+ ee$…

We present an analysis of the process $e^+e^-\to V^*\to\pi\pi\gamma$, where $V=\gamma$ or $V=Z$ boson, in the kinematical region where $\sqrt{s}$, the c.m. energy of the $e^+e^-$ pair, is large but much below the $Z$-pole. The subprocess…

The $\Delta$-excitation in $\overline{p}d$ annihilation at rest was studied. The annihilation amplitude from the statistical model and the $\pi N$ amplitude from the resonance model were adopted in our calculations. We analyze the invariant…

The \bar{nu}e^- --> pi^- pi^0 and nu e^+ --> pi^+ pi^0 reaction have a resonant structure whenever the energy of the s--channel equals the mass of a J^P=1^- vector meson. The resonant cross sections are of the order 10^{-38} cm^2 and…

Recent measurements by the Belle Collaboration of the exclusive production of two charmonia in e^+ e^- annihilation differ substantially from theoretical predictions. We suggest that a significant part of the discrepancy can be explained by…

The excitation curve for the $\tau^+ \, \tau^-$ production in electron positron annihilation near the threshold is revisited with the aim of updating and extending a previous work. We find that the corrections of the relative magnitude…
