The decay of the optical phonon into the two phonons of smaller energy is calculated for Si nanocrystals. The rate of the process is in the range of 1 to 10 ps. Such anharmonic phonon decay may control the energy relaxation rate of excited…
We make use of recent accurate results obtained for the pion and kaon vector form factors within a chiral unitary approach in order to calculate the decay widths of the $\tau$ lepton to these mesons and also to evaluate the contribution of…
Radiative muon decay in the kinematics similar to the neutrinoless decay $\mu\to e\gamma$ is considered. Radiative corrections due to 1-loop virtual photons and emission of additional soft or hard photons are taken into account. Analytical…
We calculate the photon pair production rate in strong magnetic field created in off-central heavy-ion collisions. Photon decay leads to depletion of the photon yield by a few percent at RHIC and by as much as 20% at the LHC. It also…
