Spectrum of masses of light pseudoscalar ($\pi, K, \eta, \eta'$) and vector ($\rho, K^*, \omega, \phi$) mesons can be explained on the base of the following assumptions: (1) analytical confinement (propagators of quarks and gluons are…
The three-body systems $\eta K^* \bar{K}^*$, $\pi K^* \bar{K}^*$, and $K K^* \bar{K}^*$ are further investigated within the framework of fixed-center approximation, where $K^* \bar{K}^*$ is treated as the fixed-center, corresponding to the…
We study features of the resonances $X(2100)$ and $X(2239)$ by treating them as the axial-vector and vector tetraquarks with the quark content $ss \overline{s}\overline{s}$, respectively. The spectroscopic parameters of these exotic mesons…
Recently, the tetraquark mixing framework has been proposed as a possible structure for the two light-meson nonets in the $J^P=0^+$ channel, the light nonet composed of $a_0(980)$, $K_0^*(700)$, $f_0(500)$, $f_0(980)$, and the heavy nonet…
In a recent letter we proposed a new non-thermal mechanism of Dark Matter production based on vacuum misalignment, where both the Higgs boson and a very light pseudo-scalar $\eta$ emerge from the Dark sector. In this letter, we identify the…
Analysis of the isoscalar S- and D-waves of processes pi-pi-> pi-pi, K-Kbar, eta-eta is carried out aimed at studying the status and QCD nature of scalar and tensor mesons below 2 GeV and 2.3 GeV, respectively. Assignment of these mesons to…

Recently, the KOTO experiment reported their new preliminary result of searching for the decay $K_L\to\pi^0\nu\bar{\nu}$. Three candidate events were observed in the signal region, which exceed significantly the expectation based on the…
Nucleon decays into a lepton and two pseudoscalar mesons represent key channels for probing baryon number violation, complementing conventional two-body modes. In this Letter, we model-independently correlate two- and three-body processes…
The pieces of the hypernuclear strangeness violating potential due to the pseudoscalar meson exchanges are derived using methods which were successfully applied to hyperon nonleptonic decays. The estimates are tested by comparison with…

We report the observation of the $B$ meson decay $B^\pm\to J/\psi \eta K^\pm$ and evidence for the decay $B^0\to J/\psi \eta K^0_S$, using {90} million $BBbar$ events collected at the $\ensuremath{\Upsilon{(4S)}}\xspace$ resonance with the…
The $\eta$-$\eta^\prime$ mixing angle is deduced from an updated phenomenological analysis of $J/\psi$ decays into a vector and a pseudoscalar meson. Corrections due to non-ideal $\omega$-$\phi$ mixing are confirmed to be crucial to find…
The branching ratios of weak decays of $\eta$ mesons are estimated in the framework of the Standard Model. To observe such decays, $\eta$ meson sources with $N_{\eta} > 10^{13}$ per year are needed.
