We estimate the form factors that parametrise the hadronic matrix elements of proton-to-pion transitions with the help of light-cone sum rules. These form factors are relevant for semi-leptonic proton decay channels induced by baryon-number…
We use the light front ``machinery'' to study the behavior of a relativistic free particle and obtain the quantum commutation relations from the classical Poisson brackets. We argue that their usual projection onto the light-front…

In this paper, the reaction of electron-positron annihilation into $\Lambda_c^+\bar{\Lambda}_c^-$ is investigated. The $\Lambda_c^+\bar{\Lambda}_c^-$ scattering amplitudes are obtained by solving the Lippmann-Schwinger equation. The…
A modular representation for the semileptonic decays of baryons originating from spin polarized and correlated baryon-antibaryon pairs is derived. The complete spin information of the decaying baryon is propagated to the daughter baryon via…
We discuss the angular distribution of the lepton pair in the Drell-Yan process, hadron+hadron -> \gamma^* X -> l^+ l^- X. This process gives information on the spin-density matrix \rho^{(q,\bar{q})} of the annihilating quark-antiquark pair…
Soft hadron production is described as a two-step process, where the interaction of the partonic constituents of the colliding hadrons leads to the production of intermediate subsystems (fireballs), which decay subsequently into hadrons.…
We compute the rates for $q \bar{q}$ annihilation into charginos and neutralinos by taking into account the effects of supersymmetric soft phases. In particular, the phase of the $\mu$ parameter gains direct accessibility via the production…
The pseudoscalar decays into lepton pairs $P\rightarrow\overline{\ell}\ell$ are analyzed with the machinery of Canterbury approximants, an extension of Pad\'e approximants to bivariate functions. This framework provides an ideal…
Antiproton-nucleus optical potentials fitted to $\bar p$-atom level shifts and widths are used to calculate the recently reported very low energy ($p_{L}<100$ MeV/c) $\bar p$ cross sections for annihilation on light nuclei. The apparent…
The general properties of antiproton-proton annihilation at rest are presented, with special focus on the two-meson final states. The data exhibit remarkable dynamical selection rules : some allowed annihilation modes are suppressed by one…
Thermal pair annihilation of heavy particles, such as dark matter or its co-annihilation partners, can be strongly influenced by attractive interactions. We investigate the case that pair annihilation proceeds through a velocity-suppressed…

In the heavy quark limit, the form factors for semileptonic and rare radiative B decays into light mesons are related by heavy quark spin symmetry. Here we compute the leading corrections of order \Lambda/m_Q to these symmetry relations,…
We point out that the so-called ``soft leptogenesis'' can occur at TeV scale if the $B$ term is generated through radiative corrections which involve two-loop diagrams with the gaugino exchange. This mechasnism requires the non-trivial CP…
We discuss the physical picture that a parton interaction with a coherent group of partons can lead to more jet quenching effect in the hot and dense matter created by heavy ion collisions at RHIC and LHC energies. We came to this picture…
The simultaneous investigation of the pion electromagnetic form factor in the space- and time-like regions within a light-front model allows one to address the issue of non-valence components of the pion and photon wave functions. Our…
