We survey the possibilities of detecting the $s \rightarrow d \gamma$ transition in kaon and hyperon radiative decays. In the more frequent decays, like $K^+ \rightarrow \pi^+ \pi^o \gamma$, $K^+ \rightarrow \pi^+ \ell^+ \ell^-$, the…
Quasi-free photoproduction of $\pi\eta$-pairs has been investigated from threshold up to incident photon energies of 1.4 GeV, respectively up to photon-nucleon invariant masses up to 1.9 GeV. Total cross sections, angular distributions,…
The $d^* \to d \pi \pi$ partial decay width has been calculated in a wave-function model for $d^*$ and $d$. It is found to be smaller than a previous estimate by a factor of 7. A previously proposed dependence on dibaryon sizes is…

We study the $J/\psi \to \gamma \pi^+ \pi^-$, $\gamma \pi^0 \eta$ reactions from the perspective that they come from the $J/\psi \to \phi(\omega) \pi^+ \pi^-, \rho^0\pi^0 \eta$ reactions, where the $\rho^0$, $\omega$, and $\phi$ get…

We study breakup of the deuteron induced by neutrinos in the neutral $\nu d\to \nu np$, $\bar{\nu} d\to \bar{\nu} np$ and the charged $\bar{\nu} d\to e^+ n n$, $\nu d\to e^- pp$ processes. Pionless effective field theory with dibaryon…
We calculate the shape of the $\pi\Sigma$ and $\bar K N$ invariant mass distributions in the $\Lambda_b \to J/\psi\, \pi\Sigma$ and $\Lambda_b \to J/\psi \,\bar K N$ decays that are dominated by the $\Lambda(1405)$ resonance. The weak…
Dielectron production in reactions $\pi^- p \rightarrow n e^+e^-$ and $\pi^- p \rightarrow n e^+e^- \gamma$ at energies less than 1 GeV is studied assuming electron-positron pair production to occur in the virtual time-like photon splitting…
We study the N-Delta-gamma transition in the Dyson-Schwinger approach. The nucleon and Delta baryons are treated as quark-diquark bound states, where the ingredients of the electromagnetic transition current are computed self-consistently…
We develop a new hadronic model for GEANT4 that is specialized for the disintegration of the deuteron by photons, $d\gamma \to n p$. For the description of two-nucleon interactions, we employ a pionless effective field theory with dibaryon…
We study interference patterns in the $\phi\to(\gamma a_0+\pi^0\rho)\to\gamma\pi\eta$ and $\phi\to(\gamma f_0+\pi^0\rho)\to\gamma \pi^0\pi^0$ reactions. Taking into account the interference, we fit the experimental data and show that the…
We report on searches for B- to D0(bar) K- and B- to D*0(bar) K-, with D*0(bar) to D0(bar) pi0 or D*0(bar) to D0(bar) gamma, and D0(bar) to K+ pi- (and charge conjugates). These final states, which we denote as [K+pi-]_D K- and [K+pi-]_D*…
We report the first observation of the doubly-radiative decay mode of pionic hydrogen (pi- p --> gamma gamma n) and and deuterium (pi- d --> gamma gamma X) using the RMC pair spectrometer at TRIUMF. The process is interesting in the context…
We employ the simplest possible models of scalar-fermion interactions that are consistent with the gauge symmetries of the Standard Model and permit no proton decay to analyze the connections possible among processes that break baryon…

We investigate the interactions of the deuteron with light mesons during the hadronic phase in heavy-ion collisions. We treat the deuteron as a weakly bound state and employ the quasi-free approximation to describe the $d\pi$ interaction.…
