Using 11.6 1/pb of data collected in the energy range 0.864-1.06 GeV by CMD-2 at VEPP-2M, the rare decay mode phi to eta' gamma was observed via the decay chain eta' to pi+pi- eta, eta to pi+pi-pi0 or eta to pi+pi- gamma. The following…
Following our earlier work we establish kinematic endpoint relations for baryon decays using the Wigner-Eckart theorem and apply them to $\frac{1}{2} \to \frac{1}{2}$ and $\frac{1}{2} \to \frac{3}{2}$ baryon transitions. We provide angular…
We study the rare radiative dileptonic decays $B^0(B_s)\to \gamma\ell^+\ell^-$ ($\ell=e,\mu$) in the standard model. By using the $B$ meson wave function constrained by non-leptonic decays, the branching ratios turn out to be of the order…
In the Standard Model (SM) charmless hadronic decays $B_s^0 \rightarrow \eta^\prime \eta$ proceed via tree-level $b\to u$ and penguin $b\to s$ transitions. Penguin transitions are sensitive to Beyond-the-Standard-Model (BSM) physics…

We consider the ``second-class current'' decay $\tau^-\to\pi^-\eta\nu_\tau$ from several points of view. We first focus on the decay rate as expected within standard weak interaction and QCD due to isospin violation. The decay contributions…
We calculate the electromagnetic corrections to the decays $\eta \rightarrow 3\pi$ in next to leading order in the chiral expansion. We find that the corrections are small in accordance with Sutherland's theorem and modify neither rate nor…
The decays $\eta'\to3\pi^{0}$ and $\pi^{0}\pi^{+}\pi^{-}$ were consider in isobar model approach. Branching ratio and Dalitz-plot shape of the decay $\eta'\to3\pi^{0}$ can be explain by $a0$- and $\sigma$-meson contributions. The $\sigma$…
The electromagnetic transition form factors of $\eta$ and $\eta'$ are calculated in the light-cone perturbation theory. We show that it is unreliable to determine the \eta-\etap'$ mixing angle without any additional normalization conditions…
The $\eta$ transition form factor is analysed for the first time in both space- and time-like regions at low and intermediate energies in a model-independent approach through the use of rational approximants. The $\eta\rightarrow…
Exclusive semi-leptonic decay stands as a pivotal channel in the exploration of heavy flavor physics, primarily due to its straightforward experimental measurability. In this work, we delve into the hadron matrix element and hadron tensor…

Recently, the BESIII Collaboration reported two new decay processes $h_c(1P)\to \gamma \eta$ and $\gamma \eta^\prime$. Inspired by this measurement, we propose to study the radiative decays of $h_c$ via intermediate charmed meson loops in…
