We have searched for the lepton-number violating processes B+ -> h- l+ l+ with h- = K-/pi- and l+ = e+/mu+, using a sample of 471+/-3 million BBbar events collected with the BaBar detector at the PEP-II e+e- collider at the SLAC National…
We study the processes e+e- --> K+ K- pi+pi-gamma, K+ K- pi0pi0gamma, and K+ K- K+ K-gamma, where the photon is radiated from the initial state. About 84000, 8000, and 4200 fully reconstructed events, respectively, are selected from 454…
The study of rare B-decays at SuperB provides unique opportunities to understand the Standard Model and to constrain new physics. It is discussed the new physics potential of the B -> K\nu\nu and B -> K^*\nu\nu system from the proposed…

The rare decay K0(L) --> pi0 pi0 nu nu-bar was studied with the E391a detector at the KEK 12-GeV proton synchrotron. Based on 9.4 x 10^9 K0L decays, an upper limit of 8.1 x 10^{-7} was obtained for the branching fraction at 90% confidence…
The rare kaon decay K^+ --> \pi^+ \nu \bar{\nu} is considered in the framework of the models based on the SU(3)_C X SU(3)_L X U(1)_N (3 - 3 - 1) gauge group. It is shown that a lower bound of the Z' mass in the 3 - 3 - 1 model with…
A sample of 3.73 million hadronic Z decays, recorded with the OPAL detector at LEP in the years 1991-95, has been used to search for a narrow resonance corresponding to the decay of the D*'+/-(2629) meson into D*+/- pi+ pi-. The D*+ mesons…
Rare Kaon decays provide sensitive probes of short distance physics. Among the most promising modes are the K+ --> pi+ nu anti-nu and K(L) --> pi0 nu anti-nu modes due to their theoretical cleanness and the dedicated experiments, NA62 and…
The perspectives of a search for the rare decay $K_L\to\pi^0\nu\bar{\nu}$ at a Phi-factory are discussed. After a general analysis, we focus on the realistic case of KLOE and DAFNE, showing that limits of the order of $10^{-9}$ on…
The NA62 experiment at CERN reports a search for the lepton number violating decays $K^+\to\pi^-e^+e^+$ and $K^+\to\pi^-\mu^+\mu^+$ using a data sample collected in 2017. No signals are observed, and upper limits on the branching fractions…
We investigate the $D_{s}^{+} \rightarrow K^{+} K^{-} \pi^{+}$ decay theoretically with the final state interactions, which is based on the chiral unitary approach and takes into account the external and internal $W$-emission mechanisms at…
The NA62 experiment will begin taking data in 2015. Its primary purpose is a 10% measurement of the branching ratio of the ultrarare kaon decay $K^+ \to \pi^+ \nu \bar{ \nu }$, using the decay in flight of kaons in an unseparated beam with…

We report observations of radiative B meson decays into the K+pi-gamma and K+pi-pi+gamma final states. In the B0 -> K+pi-gamma channel, we present evidence for decays via an intermediate tensor meson state with a branching fraction of B(B0…
The experimental status of the $K \to \pi \nu \bar{\nu}$ search is presented. The $K \to \pi \nu \bar{\nu}$ decay is sensitive to New Physics because it is theoretically pristine and highly suppressed. The $K_L^0 \to \pi^0 \nu \bar{\nu}$…
We present selected new results on leptonic B meson decays from the BaBar experiment: searches for the decays B0->l+l-, B+->l+nu and B0->l+tau-, and B->Knunubar, where l=e or mu. The decay modes imply also their charge conjugations. We…
