The differential cross sections for $\pi^- p \to \gamma n$ and $\pi^+ n \to \gamma p$ are computed up to $O(p^3)$ in heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory (HBChPT). The expressions at $O(p)$ and $O(p^2)$ have no free parameters. There are…
The cross-sections of the $\gamma p-\gamma' N'$, $\gamma p-\pi' N'$ and $\gamma p-\gamma'\pi' N'$ reactions are calculated in the framework of the field-theoretical one-particle ($\pi,\omega,\rho$-mesons, nucleon and $\Delta$-resonance)…

Charged and neutral B decays into two charged pions and a charged or a neutral kaon are analyzed within the QCD factorization scheme where final state interactions before and after hadronization are included. The K*(892) and K*(1430)…
We evaluate energy levels of the K-pi system in the K* channel in finite volume using chiral unitary theory. We use these energy levels to obtain K-pi phase shifts, and then obtain the K* mass and its decay width. We investigate their…
We use chiral perturbation theory to evaluate the scattering amplitude for the process Pi^+ K^- to Pi^+ K^- at leading and next-to-leading orders in the chiral counting and in the presence of isospin breaking effects. We also discuss the…
Recent theoretical studies of the e+ e- --> K + K- gamma process are described. Three main reaction mechanisms are considered: the initial state radiation, the final state radiation and the strong interaction between the outgoing K+ K-…
The modeling of coupled-channel effects has become increasingly important due to the availability of highly precise data for a large variety of hadronic (re)scattering processes. The K-matrix is a powerful, yet comparatively simple, method…
A coupled channel model with $\gamma N$, $KY$ and $\pi N$ channels has been used to analyze the recent data of $\gamma p \to K^+ \Lambda$. The non-resonant interactions within the subspace $KY \oplus \pi N$ are derived from effective…
We present an analysis of the radiative decay $\phi \to \gamma \pi^0 \pi^0$ in a dispersive framework, where the two-pion subsystem undergoes strong final-state interactions that cover the $f_0(500)$ and $f_0(980)$ regions. We employ a…
We investigate the two-body reactions $\bar K N\rightarrow \bar K N$, $\bar K N\rightarrow \pi \Lambda$, and $\bar K N\rightarrow \pi \Sigma$ via single-energy partial-wave analyses in the c.m.\ energy range 1480 to 2100 MeV. The…
We calculate the one-loop contributions to the difference \Delta_{\pi K} between the isoscalar on-shell pion-kaon scattering amplitude at the Cheng-Dashen point and the scalar form factor \Gamma_K (2M_\pi^2) in the framework of three flavor…
Using chiral low energy theorems and elastic unitarity assumption, the $\tau\to\pi K \nu $ decay is investigated. The vector and scalar $\pi K$ form factors are calculated. It is found that the $\pi K$ spectrum is dominated by the $K^*$…
Using simple arguments, we show that charge-exchange reactions at high energies go through the hard scattering of fast quarks. On this basis we describe $\pi^- p \to M^0 n$ and $K^- p \to M^0 \Lambda$, $M^0 =\pi^0, \eta, \eta'$, in a…
We investigate p-wave pion production in nucleon-nucleon collisions up to next-to-next-to-leading order in chiral effective field theory. In particular, we show that it is possible to describe simultaneously the p-wave amplitudes in the…
