The $K_{S}^{0}-K_{L}^{0}$ asymmetries in the $D$ meson decays, induced by the interference between the Cabibbo-favored and the doubly Cabibbo-suppressed amplitudes, can help to understand the dynamics of charm decays. All possible processes…
Possible coexistence of kaon condensation and hyperons in highly dense matter [the ($Y+K$) phase] is investigated on the basis of the relativistic mean-field theory combined with the effective chiral Lagrangian. Two coupling schemes for the…
New precise data in B physics and theoretical developments in K physics lead us to reconsider the weak K^0-\bar{K}^0 transition from a large-N_c viewpoint, N_c being the number of colors. In this framework, we infer an upper limit on…
In this talk some of the theoretical aspects of $b \to s \gamma$ transitions are discussed. The focus is on inclusive decays, since these can be computed more reliably. Topics covered are (1) perturbative QCD corrections, (2)…
We develop the notion of "broad-band equilibration" in heavy-ion processes involving dense medium. Given density-dependent \Km-masses we show that the equilibration at GSI energies claimed to hold in previous treatments down to $\sim…
Functional renormalisation group approach is applied to a system of kaons with finite chemical potential. A set of approximate flow equations for the effective couplings is derived and solved. At high scale the system is found to be at the…

Analytic solutions for the evolution of cosmological linear density perturbations in the baryonic gas and collisionless dark matter are derived. The solutions are expressed in a closed form in terms of elementary functions, for arbitrary…
The $\sigma$-terms are calculated at next-to-leading order in heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory by employing a cutoff regularization. The results do not depend on the cutoff value to the order we are working . The baryon masses and…
We calculate the T-matrices of kaon-nucleon ($KN$) and antikaon-nucleon ($\overline{K}N$) scattering to one-loop order in SU(3) heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory (HB$\chi$PT). The low-energy constants (LECs) and their combinations are…
We consider the reconstruction of the support of an unknown perturbation to a known conductivity coefficient in Calder\'on's problem. In a previous result by the authors on monotonicity-based reconstruction, the perturbed coefficient is…
We consider an extension of the one-nucleon sector of baryon chiral perturbation theory beyond the low-energy region. The applicability of this approach for higher energies is restricted to small scattering angles, i.e. the kinematical…
We compare the non-linear matter power spectrum in real space calculated analytically from 3rd-order perturbation theory with N-body simulations at 1<z<6. We find that the perturbation theory prediction agrees with the simulations to better…
We study meson-baryon scattering with strangeness -1 in unitary chiral perturbation theory. Ten coupled channels are considered in our work, namely $\pi^0 \Lambda$, $\pi^0 \Sigma^0$, $\pi^- \Sigma^+$, $\pi^+ \Sigma^-$, $K^- p$, $\bar{K}^0…
Theoretical predictions for inclusive semileptonic B decay rates are rewritten in terms of the Upsilon(1S) meson mass instead of the b quark mass, using a modified perturbation expansion. This method gives theoretically consistent and…
Chiral perturbation theory is the effective field theory of the Standard Model at low energies. After a short introduction and overview, I discuss three topics where the chiral approach leads to a deeper understanding of low-energy hadron…
The issue of consistent power counting in baryon chiral perturbation theory is revisited.
Quantum interference effects between past and future events (neutral kaon transitions, including CP violating decays) are discussed for entangled kaon pairs produced through $\phi \to K^0 \bar{K^0}$ in $\phi$-factories. Contrasting with the…
Within a picture of the $f_1(1285)$ being a dynamically generated resonance from the $ K^*\bar K$ interactions, we estimate the rates for the radiative transitions of the $f_1(1285)$ meson to the vector mesons $\rho^0$,$\omega$ and $\phi$.…
We suggest a novel method to determine the sign of cos(2 beta) in the decays B --> psi K, by creating interference between KL and KS final states via ``regeneration,'' that is propagation through a matter target region to convert some KL to…
