We evaluate the rare radiative kaon decays K_{L,S} -> 3 gamma. Applying the requirements of gauge invariance and Bose symmetry, we derive a general form of the decay amplitude, including both parity-conserving and parity-violating…

The Standard Model predicts a branching ratio for the decay mode Bs -> mu mu of (3.4 +/- 0.5)10e-9, while some SUSY models predict enhancements up to 2 orders of magnitude. It is expected that at the end of its life Tevatron will set and…

Branching fractions for decays from the $P_{3/2}$ level in $^{138}$Ba$^+$ have been measured with a single laser-cooled ion. Decay probabilities to $S_{1/2}$, $D_{3/2}$ and $D_{5/2}$ are determined to be $0.741716(71)$, $0.028031(23)$ and…
