The European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) has recently approved a world-unique QCD facility in which an updated version of the external M2 beam line of the CERN SPS in conjunction with a universal spectrometer of the COMPASS…
The NA61/SHINE experiment at the CERN Super Proton Synchrotron is pursuing a rich programme on strong interactions, which covers the study of the onset of deconfinement and aims to discover the critical point of strongly interacting matter…
The interaction of antikaons with nucleons and nuclei in the low-energy regime represents an active research field in hadron physics with still many important open questions. The investigation of light kaonic atoms, in which one electron is…
Rare and flavour-changing neutral current decays of the B meson are an important probe in the search for physics beyond the Standard Model. There have recently been several anomalies in rare B decays, and lepton-universality measurements,…

There is no doubt that in the coming years we will witness the renaissance of kaon flavour physics with crucial measurements of the branching ratios for the rare decays $K^+\rightarrow\pi^+\nu\bar\nu$ and $K_{L}\rightarrow\pi^0\nu\bar\nu$…
$K \rightarrow \pi \ell^+ \ell^-$ decays, $\ell = e, \mu$, will be one of the goals of future kaon facilities, like NA62 (CERN) and K$^0$TO (J-PARC). We review briefly the theoretical status of those processes.
The rare kaon decay $K^+\to\pi^+\nu\bar{\nu}$ is an ideal process in which to search for signs of new physics and is the primary goal of the NA62 experiment at CERN. In this paper we report on a lattice QCD calculation of the long-distance…

NA61/SHINE is a fixed target experiment at the CERN Super-Proton- Synchrotron. The main goals of the experiment are to discover the critical point of strongly interacting matter and to study the properties of the onset of deconfinement. In…
We discuss the opportunities for experiments at the frontier of physics using K-meson beams after the current round of precision experiments looking for CP violation in the K meson decay amplitude and for flavor-changing neutral currents…
Data on low-energy hadron production in collisions of nucleons, pions and kaons with light nuclei are needed for many astrophysical and accelerator applications. Modern simulations have reached a level of accuracy that the lack of detailed…
Kaon decays are an important testing ground of the electroweak flavour theory. They can provide new signals of CP violation and, perhaps, a window into physics beyond the Standard Model. At the same time, they exhibit an interesting…
