Relativistic mean field calculations of multi-$\bar{K}$ hypernuclei are performed by adding $K^-$ mesons to particle-stable configurations of nucleons, $\Lambda$ and $\Xi$ hyperons. For a given hypernuclear core, the calculated $\bar{K}$…
The baryon magnetic and transition magnetic moments are computed in heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory in the large-N_c limit, where N_c is the number of colors. One-loop nonanalytic corrections of orders m_q^{1/2} and m_q ln m_q are…
We find that the phase appearing in the unitarity relation between $\mathcal{B}(K_L\rightarrow \mu^+\mu^-)$ and $\mathcal{B}(K_L\rightarrow \gamma\gamma)$ is equal to the phase shift in the interference term of the time-dependent…
We perform the complete regularization of all Green functions with a single incoming and outgoing baryon to order q^3 in the low energy expansion for the SU(3) meson-baryon system in chiral perturbation theory. The divergences can be…
We evaluate the matrix elements for the radiative kaon decays $K^+ \to l^+\nu_l\gamma$, $l^+ \nu_l l'^+ l'^-$ and $K \to \pi l \nu_l\gamma$ \ ($l,\ l' = e,\mu$) to next-to-leading order in chiral perturbation theory. We calculate total…

We apply a forward dispersion relation to the regeneration amplitude for kaon scattering on 12C using all available data. The CPLEAR data at low energies allow the determination of the net contribution from the subthreshold region which…
The article reviews the physics related to kaon and antikaon production in heavy ion reactions at intermediate energies. Chiral dynamics predicts substantial modifications of the kaon properties in a dense nuclear environment. The status of…
We study phase transitions and the behavior of kaons in hot and dense matter, giving special attention to the role of strange quarks. At T=0, it is found that the fraction of the strange valence quarks affects the energy per particle of the…
That the exact quantum S-matrix of $\text{T}\bar{\text{T}}$-deformed field theories is known has interesting consequences for their perturbative renormalisation. Recent investigations into the interplay between renormalisation and…
We develop an alternative approach to time independent perturbation theory in non-relativistic quantum mechanics. The method developed has the advantage to provide in one operation the correction to the energy and to the wave function,…
Compton scattering on the deuteron is studied in the framework of baryon chiral perturbation theory to third order in small momenta, for photon energies of order the pion mass. The scattering amplitude is a sum of one- and two-nucleon…
The processes of production and subsequent decay of W- and Z-bosons in $e^+ e^-$ collisions are considered in a recently proposed modified perturbation theory (PT), based on a direct expansion of probabilities instead of amplitudes. In such…
K0-K0bar oscillations are extremely sensitive to the K0 and K0bar energy at rest. Even assuming m_K0=m_K0bar, the energy is not granted to be the same if gravitational effects on K0 and K0bar slightly differ. We consider various gravitation…
We review some results obtained by us and others concerning the structure of higher order perturbation series in perturbative QCD and their resummation using the renormalization group equation. We illustrate our results by a number of…
We discuss the time dependent interferences between $K_L$ and $K_S$ in the decays in $3\pi$ and $\pi\pi\gamma$, to be studied at interferometry machines such as the $\phi$-factory and LEAR. We emphasize the possibilities and the advantages…
The properties of strange hadrons, i.e. of kaons and hyperons, in the nuclear medium are discussed in connection with neutron star properties and relativistic heavy-ion collisions. Firstly, the relevant medium modifications of a kaon in a…
We investigate the influence of primordial perturbations of the energy density and space--time metric on the generation of the lepton and baryon asymmetries. In the weak and strong washout regimes baryon isocurvature perturbations with…
The vacuum spectrum of the $\phi$-meson is characterized by its decay into $K{\bar K} $. Modifications of the $K {\bar K}$-loops in baryonic matter change this spectrum. We calculate these in-medium modifications taking both s- and p-wave…
We revisit $B\to K^*\pi$ and $B\to K\rho$ decay processes using the modified perturbative QCD approach, which is developed based on the perturbative QCD approach with a few improvements. A critical infrared cutoff scale $\mu_c$ is…
