The reaction p p $\to$ p ${\pi^+}X$ was studied at different incident energies around T$_{p}$=2 GeV. Narrow baryonic structures were observed in the missing mass M$_{X}$ and in the invariant mass M$_{p\pi^{+}}$. The masses of these…
A recently reported anomaly in the time structure of signals in the KARMEN neutrino detector suggests the decay of a new particle $x$, produced in $\pi^+ \to \mu^+ x$ with mass $m_x=33.9$ MeV. We discuss the constraints and difficulties in…
The KARMEN collaboration has reported the possible observation of a hitherto unknown neutral and weakly interacting particle x, which is produced in the decay pi -> mu + x with a mass m(x) = 33.9 MeV. We have searched for this hypothetical…
We have searched for the pion decay pi^+ --> mu^+ X, where X is a neutral particle of mass 33.905 MeV. This process was suggested by the KARMEN Collaboration to explain an anomaly in their observed time distribution of neutrino induced…
We perform a model-independent analysis for recently reported data of the $\pi^+\pi^-$ invariant mass spectra in the $\Upsilon(4S)\to\Upsilon(1S,2S)\pi^+\pi^-$ decays and point out that there does exist a broad peak below 0.6 GeV in the…
The $B_s^0\pi^\pm$ invariant mass distribution is investigated in order to search for possible exotic meson states. The analysis is based on a data sample recorded with the LHCb detector corresponding to $3$ fb$^{-1}$ of $pp$ collision data…
Signals of two narrow structures at M=1747 MeV and 1772 MeV were observed in the invariant masses M_{pX} and M_{\pi^{+}X} of the pp->ppX and pp->p\pi^{+}X reactions respectively. Many tests were made to see if these structures could have…
The Karmen anomaly can be interpreted as being due to a heavy neutrino of mass around 137 MeV produced in $\pi_{e 2}$ decays. This interpretation is consistent with the present limits on the couplings of such an object.
New physics can be searched for in deep inelastic scattering experiments. New phenomena, like additional production mechanisms for heavy quarks, manifest themselves through production and decays of short-lived hadrons, which give additional…
Heavy neutrinos were sought in pion decays $\pi^+ \rightarrow \mu^+ \nu$ by examining the observed muon energy spectrum for extra peaks in addition to the expected peak for a massless neutrino. No evidence for heavy neutrinos was observed.…
We present a method of analyzing invariant-mass spectra of kaon pairs resulting from decay of $\phi$ mesons produced in high-energy heavy-ion collisions. It can be used to extract the shifts in the mass and the width ($\Delta M$ and $\Delta…
The difference of the rest masses m(pi^+-) - m(mu^+-) is nearly equal to 1/4 of the rest mass of the pi^(+-) mesons and is equal to the sum of the rest masses of the 0.7 times 10^9 muon neutrinos (respectively anti-muon neutrinos) which are…
The mass distributions of baryon resonances populated in near-central collisions of Au on Au and Ni on Ni are deduced by defolding the $p_t$ spectra of charged pions by a method which does not depend on a specific resonance shape. In…
The origin of neutrino masses remains unknown to date. One popular idea involves interactions between neutrinos and ultralight dark matter, described as fields or particles with masses $m_\phi \ll 10\,\mathrm{eV}$. Due to the large…
Exploring the mass modifications of $\phi$ mesons in nuclei provides insights into the nature of strongly interacting matter. Specifically, $\phi$ meson mass shifts can be related to the in-medium modification of the strange quark…

In this work, we study the long-standing experimental anomaly in muon $(g-2)$ and also recent anomalous excess in $K_L\to \pi^0+\nu\bar\nu$ at the J-PARC KOTO experiment with sgoldstino. After supersymmetry breaking, the interactions…

Non-uniform structures of nuclear matter are studied in a wide density-range. Using the density functional theory with a relativistic mean-field model, we examine non-uniform structures at sub-nuclear densities (nuclear ``pastas'') and at…
