It is shown that the ratio of the production rates of the pairs (B+ B-) and (B0 anti-B0) should experience a substantial and rapid variation with energy within the width of the Upsilon(4S) resonance, crossing the value of one near the…
We report the first evidence for isospin violation in $B \to K^* \gamma$ and the first measurement of difference of $CP$ asymmetries between $B^+ \to K^{*+} \gamma$ and $B^0 \to K^{*0} \gamma$. This analysis is based on the data sample…
We revisit the problem of interplay between the strong and the Coulomb interaction in the charged-to-neutral yield ratio for $B {\bar B}$ and $D {\bar D}$ pairs near their respective thresholds in $e^+e^-$ annihilation. We consider here a…
We consider production of overall neutral pairs consisting of heavy $D^{(*)}$ or $B^{(*)}$ meson and antimeson in the processes, where the pair can be created in an $S$-wave, such as $e^+e^- \to \pi^0 \, D^* \bar D^{(*)}$ and $e^+e^- \to…

We study the effect of isospin degree of freedom on balance energy throughout the mass range between 50 and 350 for two sets of isobaric systems with N/A = 0.5 and 0.58. Our fndings indicate that different values of balance energy for two…
The energy dependence of the cross sections of $p\bar p$, $n\bar n$, and meson production in $e^+e^-$ annihilation in the vicinity of the $p\bar p$ and $n\bar n$ thresholds is studied. The proton-neutron mass difference and the $p\bar p$…

We present results on the pseudoscalar meson masses from a fully dynamical simulation of QCD+QED. We concentrate particularly on violations of isospin symmetry. We calculate the $\pi^+$-$\pi^0$ splitting and also look at other isospin…
Production cross sections of K$^+$ and K$^-$ mesons have been measured in C+C collisions at beam energies per nucleon below and near the nucleon-nucleon threshold. At a given beam energy, the spectral slopes of the K$^-$ mesons are…

Strong interactions preserve an approximate isospin symmetry between up ($u$) and down ($d$) quarks, part of the more general flavor symmetry. In the case of $K$ meson production, if this isospin symmetry were exact, it would result in…
