The production of $\phi$ mesons in the reaction $e^{+}p \rightarrow e^{+} \phi p$ ($\phi \rightarrow K^{+}K^{-}$) at a median $Q^{2}$ of $10^{-4} \ \rm{GeV^2}$ has been studied with the ZEUS detector at HERA. The differential $\phi$…
Coherent photoproduction of vector mesons is sensitive to the shape of the target nucleus, as probed at four-momentum scale $Q^2 \propto (M_V/2)^2$. Previously STAR presented a high-statistics measurement of $d\sigma_c/dt$ for coherent…
We consider the prospects for the indirect detection of low mass dark matter which couples dominantly to quarks. If the center of mass energy is below about 280 MeV, the kinematically allowed final states will be dominated by photons and…
We calculate the cross section for diffractive photoproduction of opposite-charge pseudoscalar meson pairs $M^+M^- = \pi^+ \pi^-$, $K^+ K^-$, $D^+ D^-$ and $B^+ B^-$ in a broad range of center-of-mass energies relevant for GlueX/Hall D,…
Predictions for the diffractive photoproduction of the $\Upsilon$-family at HERA energies, within the framework of the analysis by Frankfurt, Koepf and Strikman, are presented. Two novel effects lead to a significant enhancement of the…

We present results from Fermilab experiment E791. We extracted the fractions of resonant components in the $\Lambda_c^+\to p K^- \pi^+$ decays, and found a significant polarization of the $\Lambda_c^+$ using a fully 5-dimensional resonant…
We present an update of the MILC studies of the physics of light pseudoscalars using improved staggered fermions. New runs at lighter quark mass, as well as increased statistics for older sets, are enabling us to improve the results for…
