We compute the electromagnetic form factor of the pion using non-perturbatively O(a) improved Wilson fermions. The calculations are done for a wide range of pion masses and lattice spacings. We check for finite size effects by repeating…
The decay of photon by the influence of magnetic field is considered. It is shown here that if the photon energy is grater than 1 MeV then photon can decay electron positron pair, but if it remains below 1 MeV then photon decays into…
It has been commonly assumed that pseudoscalar contributions to the leptonic decay of charged mesons, like pions and kaons, is strongly constrained due to the helicity suppression present in the ratio $R_{l/l'} = \Gamma(P \rightarrow…
A pion mean-field approach allows one to investigate light and singly heavy baryons on an equal footing. In the large $N_c$ limit, the light and singly heavy baryons are viewed respectively as $N_c$ and $N_c-1$ valence quarks bound by the…

We suggest that decay properties (branching ratios) of hadronic resonances may become modified in strong external magnetic field. The behavior of $K^{\pm *}\!$, $K^{0*}$ vector mesons as well as $\Lambda^*(1520)$ and $\Xi^{0*}$ baryonic…
In the framework of top-color assisted technicolor(TC2) theory, we study the four decay processes of charged top-pion, i.e., $\Pi^{+}_{t}\to t\bar{b}$, $\Pi^{+}_{t}\to c\bar{b}$, $\Pi^{+}_{t}\to W^{+}\gamma$, $\Pi^{+}_{t}\to W^{+}Z^{0}$,…
Properties of the pion are studied at finite temperature with the help of the PCAC and the QCD sum rule. The pionic mode is treated consistently with the thermal pions which consist of the ground state at finite temperature. The temperature…
We calculate the neutral pion mass in the presence of an external magnetic field of arbitrary strength in the framework of the linear sigma model coupled to quarks at zero temperature. We find nonmonotonic behavior of the pion mass as a…
We present a calculation using lattice QCD of the ratios of decay constants of the excited states of the pion, to that of the pion ground state, at three values of the pion mass between 400 and 700 MeV, using an anisotropic clover fermion…
We investigate the chiral properties of QCD in presence of a magnetic background field and in the low temperature regime, by lattice numerical simulations of N_f = 2 QCD. We adopt a standard staggered discretization, with a pion mass around…
We compute the electromagnetic corrections to neutron beta decay using a low-energy hadronic effective field theory. We identify and compute new radiative corrections arising from virtual pions that were missed in previous studies. The…
We review the physics of purely leptonic decays of $\pi^\pm$, $K^\pm$, $D^{\pm}$, $D_s^\pm$, and $B^\pm$ pseudoscalar mesons. The measured decay rates are related to the product of the relevant weak-interaction-based CKM matrix element of…
