The NA48/2 experiment at CERN reports the first observation of the $K^{\pm} \rightarrow \pi^{0} \pi^{0} \mu^{\pm} \nu$ decay based on a sample of 2437 candidates with 15% background contamination collected in 2003--2004. The decay branching…
The processes $D^0\to K^0 K^-\pi^+$ and $D^0\to\ok K^+\pi^-$ involve intermediate vector resonances whose amplitudes and phases are related to each other via flavor SU(3) symmetry. A closer look at Dalitz plots for these two processes is…
The $B^0 \to K^0_S K^+ K^- $ decay amplitude is derived within a quasi-two-body QCD factorization framework in terms of kaon form factors and $B^0$ to two-kaon-transition functions. The final state kaon-kaon interactions in the $S$, $P$,…
We calculate the long-distance radiative corrections \delta^e_{LD} and \delta^{\mu}_{LD} to the K^0 -> \pi^- e^+ \nu_e and the K^0 -> pi^- \mu^+ \nu_{\mu} decay rates. This analysis includes contributions to the long-distance radiative…

The branching ratio of $B^-\to h_c+K^-$ is re-evaluated in the PQCD approach. In this theoretical framework all the phenomenological parameters in the wavefunctions and Sudakov factor are priori fixed by fitting other experimental data, and…
The branching ratio of the rare decay pi^0 -> e^+e^- has been measured in E799-II, a rare kaon decay experiment using the KTeV detector at Fermilab. The pi^0's were produced in fully-reconstructed K_L -> 3 pi^0 decays in flight. We observed…

The long-term goal of NA62 is to measure the ultra rare K+/- -> pi+/- nu anti-nu decay with a sensitivity of 10^-12 per event. This is done by using the decay - in - flight technique which allows a signal acceptance of ~10% . The aim is to…
