Standard model mixing and CP violation are expected to be small in the charm sector. Some argue that only in the presence of new physics do we currently expect to observe these effects. Fermilab experiment E791 has the largest sample of…

Bound-systems of $\Xi^-$--$^{14}_{}{\rm N}$ are studied via $\Xi^-$ capture at rest followed by emission of a twin single-$\Lambda$ hypernucleus in the emulsion detectors. Two events forming extremely deep $\Xi^-$ bound states were obtained…

We report the first observation of a number of decay modes of the B meson, namely $B^0 \to D^{*-} (5\pi)^+$, $B^+ \to D^{*-} (4\pi)^{++}$ and $B^+ \to \bar{D}^{*0} (5\pi)^+$, where $(n\pi)$ implies the combination of n charged pions. The…

We report the first observation of the Xi- pi+ decay mode of the Xi0(1690), confirming the existence of this resonance. The Xi0(1690) were produced by Sigma- of 345 Gev/c mean momentum in copper and carbon targets. The mass and width are…

Recently the Belle collaboration has discovered a narrow $S=-3$ baryon, the $\Omega(2012)$. We explore the possibility that the $\Omega(2012)$ is a $\Xi(1530)\,\bar K$ molecule, where the binding mechanism is the coupled channel dynamics…

We present results on CP violation from approximately 2.8 fb^{-1} of data collected by the D0 Experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron. The results presented are: (i) an improved measurement of the B_s^0 CP-violating phase from a flavor-tagged…

We report the results of a search for flavor-changing neutral current, lepton-flavor violating, and lepton-number violating decays of D+, Ds, and D0 mesons (and their antiparticles) into modes containing muons and electrons. Using data from…

A search for $CP$ violation using $T$-odd correlations is performed using the four-body $D^0 \to K^+K^-\pi^+\pi^-$ decay, selected from semileptonic $B$ decays. The data sample corresponds to integrated luminosities of $1.0\,\text{fb}^{-1}$…

The BESIII experiment at the electron-positron collider BEPCII in Beijing (China) is successfully operating since 2008 and has collected large data samples in the tau-mass region, including the world's largest data samples at the $J/\psi$…

The LHCb Collaboration has recently found a large CP-violating rate asymmetry in the $b$-baryon decay $\Lambda^0_b \to pK^-\pi^+\pi^-$. This is the first observation of CP violation in baryon processes, opening a new window to test its…

In these proceedings to the LHCP conference 2013 results are presented on the study of the Higgs-like particle at a mass of 125 GeV decaying into final states consisting of either $\tau^+\tau^-$, or a $b\bar{b}$ quark pair, based on the…

We report the results of the first search for Standard Model and baryon-number-violating two-body decays of the neutral $B$ mesons to $\Lambda^{0}$ and $\Omega^{(*)0}_c$ using 711~${\rm fb^{-1}}$ of data collected at the $\Upsilon(4S)$…

Fermilab operates the world's most intense antiproton source, now exclusively dedicated to serving the needs of the Tevatron Collider. The anticipated 2009 shutdown of the Tevatron presents the opportunity for world-leading low- and…

After an introduction on the peculiarities of flavor-physics measurements at a hadron collider, and on the upgraded Collider Detector at Fermilab (CDF II), I show recent results on two-body B0 and B0s decays into charged, pseudo-scalar,…

Within the framework of the QCD sum rules, we consider the three-point correlation function, work at the limit q^2 -> 0 and m_\pi -> 0, and pick out the singular term ~ {1\over q^2} to extract the pionic coupling constants of the 1^{-+}…

The HyperCP collaboration has observed three events for the decay Sigma^+ -> p mu^+ mu^- which may be interpreted as a new particle of mass 214.3 MeV. However, existing data from kaon and B-meson decays severely constrain this…

We study extensions of the standard model by one generation of vector-like leptons with non-standard hypercharges, which allow for a sizable modification of the h -> gamma gamma decay rate for new lepton masses in the 300 GeV - 1 TeV range.…

Evidence for CP violation in baryonic decays has not been seen in experiments. With large data events accumulated at $e^+e^-$ collider or Large Hadron Collider, the charmed baryon decays would provide a promising laboratory to test the CP…

The radiative hyperon decay $\Lambda\to n\gamma$ is studied using $(10087\pm44)\times 10^6$ $J/\psi$ events collected with the BESIII detector operating at BEPCII. The absolute branching fraction of the decay $\Lambda\to n\gamma$ is…

The NA48/2 and NA62-$R_K$ experiments at the CERN SPS collected large samples of charged kaon decays in flight in 2003--07. The data analysis is still on-going (with over 20 publications produced so far); the recent results from these…
