The renormalizable Abelian quantum field theory model of Kroll, Lee, and Zumino is used to compute the one-loop vertex corrections to the tree-level, Vector Meson Dominance (VMD) pion form factor. These corrections, together with the known…
Pion beta decay, $\pi^+\to \pi^0 e^+\nu(\gamma)$, provides a theoretically clean $\pm 0.3\%$ determination of the CKM matrix element $V_{\text{ud}}$. That value falls short of super-allowed nuclear beta decays where an order of magnitude…

Motivated by the LHCb measurement, we analyze the $B_s\to \pi^+\pi^-\ell^+\ell^-$ decay in the kinematics region where the pion pairs have invariant mass in the range $0.5$-$1.3$ GeV and muon pairs do not originate from a resonance. The…
