Inspired by the recent observation of the $\Xi_{cc}^{++}$ by LHCb collaboration, we explore the "decay constants" of doubly heavy baryons in the framework of QCD sum rules. With the $\Xi_{cc}, \Xi_{bc}, \Xi_{bb}$, and $\Omega_{cc},…

Based on 1.35 million polarized $\Xi^{-}$ events, we measure the parameter $\phi_{\Xi}$ to be $-1.61^{\circ} \pm 2.66^{\circ} \pm 0.37^{\circ}$ for $\Xi^{-} \to \Lambda \pi^{-}$ decay. New results for the parameters $\beta_{\Xi}$ and…

This review contains an overview of strong interaction effects in weak decays starting with a historical introduction. It contains a short overview of semileptonic decays and their relevance for measuring CKM matrix elements. The main part…

The BESIII detector on the BEPCII collider collected the world's largest dataset at the peaks of $J/\psi$, $\psi(3686)$ and $\psi(3770)$. The use of polarization and entanglement states in multidimensional angular distribution analysis can…

Using the recent measurement of the $\Xi ^0 \to \Lambda \gamma $ asymmetry as an input, we reanalyse nonleptonic and weak radiative hyperon decays in a single symmetry-based framework. In this framework the old S:P problem of nonleptonic…

The quantum entangled $J/\psi \to \Sigma^{+}\bar{\Sigma}^{-}$ pairs from $(1.0087\pm0.0044)\times10^{10}$ $J/\psi$ events taken by the BESIII detector are used to study the non-leptonic two-body weak decays $\Sigma^{+} \to n \pi^{+}$ and…

We revisit the theory and constraints on axion-like particles (ALPs) interacting with leptons. We clarify some subtleties in the constraints on ALP parameter space and find several new opportunities for ALP detection. We identify a…

Very recently, the LHCb collaboration has observed in the final state $\Lambda_c^+ K^-\pi^+\pi^+$ a resonant structure that is identified as the doubly-charmed baryon $\Xi_{cc}^{++}$. Inspired by this observation, we investigate the weak…

After the discovery of the double-charm baryon $\Xi_{cc}^{++}$ by LHCb, one of the most important topics is to search for the bottom-charm baryons which contain a $b$ quark, a $c$ quark and a light quark. In this work, we study the two-body…

Since the LHCb collaboration announced the observation of the doubly charmed baryon $\Xi_{cc}^{++}$, a series of studies of doubly heavy baryons have been presented. In this work, I analyse the non-leptonic weak decays of doubly heavy…

While indirect & direct CP violations (CPV) had been established in the decays of strange & beauty mesons, none have been done for baryons. There are different "roads" for finding CP asymmetries in the decays of strange baryons; they are…

We analyze joint angular distributions of a charmonium decay to the $\Xi\bar\Xi$ pair using the $\Xi\to\Lambda\pi\to p\pi^-\pi$ weak decay chain for the cascade and the charge conjugated mode for the anticascade. The decays allow a direct…

Differences in the behaviour of matter and antimatter have been observed in $K$ and $B$ meson decays, but not yet in any baryon decay. Such differences are associated with the non-invariance of fundamental interactions under the combined…

$CP$ violation experiments, new measurements of the parameters of the neutral \K\ system and searches for rare decays are summarized. Perspectives for the near future are presented.

Using data collected with the CLEO II detector we have performed a search for direct CP violation in the $\Xi$ hyperon system. CP violation gives rise to an asymmetry, A, between the parity-violating angular distributions of the decay…

This study introduces a complete joint angular distribution analysis for the process $e^{+}e^{-}\to J/\psi\to B(\to B_1\pi)\bar{B}(\to \bar{B}_1\pi)$ with polarized beams, where $B$ and $B_{1}$ are hyperons. We consider both transverse and…

Weak radiative hyperon decays are discussed in the diquark-level approach. It is pointed out that in the general diquark formalism one may reproduce the experimentally suggested pattern of asymmetries, while maintaining Hara's theorem in…

Weak decays of heavy-quark baryons offer an attractive laboratory to search for effects beyond the Standard Model (SM), complementary to searches in meson decays. However, the properties of these baryons are not well understood. In…

Based on a sample of $(10087 \pm 44) \times 10^6$ $J/\psi$ events collected with the BESIII detector at BEPCII, we report the first observation of the decay $J/\psi \rightarrow K^- \Sigma^0 \bar{\Xi}^++c.c.$. A partial wave analysis is…

The existence of doubly heavy flavor baryons has not been well established experimentally so far. In this Letter we systematically investigate the weak decays of the doubly charmed baryons, $\Xi_{cc}^{++}$ and $\Xi_{cc}^{+}$, which would be…
