The recently developed relativistically covariant formulation of wave function reduction is illustrated for Lipkin's proposal to study CP violation in the coherent decay of kaon pairs. Covariant results are obtained in agreement with an…
We review recent experimental progress in the domain of rare radiative, semileptonic and leptonic B decays. The statistical precision attained for these decays has reached a level where they start to impose meaningful constraints on the…
In the recent year many new results from kaon decays have been reported from both the NA48 experiment at CERN and the KTeV experiment at Fermilab. Both experiments have new and improved measurements of the parameter Re(epsilon'/epsilon) of…
The present report of the RF2 Topical Group to Snowmass 2021 describes the physics case for the studies of weak decays of strange and light quarks. Ongoing and proposed precision measurements of kaon, hyperon, pion and $\eta^{(\prime)}$…
We review some recent developments in top quark production and decay at current and future colliders.
I discuss some theoretical aspects of rare $K$, $D$ and $B$ decays focusing mainly on their potential as tests of the one loop structure of the standard model. I concentrate on flavor changing neutral current processes and compare our…
We study the rare kaon decays in the framework of general SUSY models. Unlike the results in the literature, we find the contributions from the gluino exchange to the branching ratio of $K^+\to \pi^+ \nu \bar{\nu}$ can reach the central…
Recent results in Quarkonia are reviewed, including updates on spectroscopy and $\alpha_s$, and a first look at quarkonium annihilation decays.
Kaon decays have played a key role in the construction of the Standard Model and continue to be an important testing ground of the electroweak flavour theory. They can provide new signals of CP-violation phenomena and, perhaps, a window…
The experimental program for the study of the rare kaon decays, K -> pnn, is summarized. A review of recent results is provided along with a discussion of prospects for the future of this program. The primary focus of the world-wide kaon…
Despite not being designed for it, the LHCb experiment has given world-leading contributions in kaon and hyperon physics. In this contribution I review the prospects for kaon physics at LHCb exploiting the already acquired data and the…
Some recent results and problems in the theory of particles containing heavy quarks ar reviewed.
We consider weak decays of heavy hadrons (bottom and charmed) where the heavy quark acts as a spectator. Theses decays are heavily phase-space suppressed but may become experimentally accessible in the near future. These decays are…
We describe possible kaon physics goals to achieve with a high luminosity phi-factory. We motivate the relevance to improve the present bounds on CPT kaon physics quantities. Also, the interferometer machine phi-factory is useful to study…
We review the prospects for B decay studies at the LHC.
A brief review of the latest developments in the spectroscopy of heavy quarks is presented. The current status of the recently `discovered' pentaquarks is also discussed.
The first search for the rare kaon decay $\kppnn$ has been performed by the E391a collaboration at the KEK 12-GeV proton synchrotron. An upper limit of $4.7\times10^{-5}$ at the 90 % confidence level was set for the branching ratio of the…
We present an overview of rare K, D and B decays. Particular attention is devoted to those flavour-changing neutral-current processes of K and B mesons that offer the possibility of new significant tests of the Standard Model. The…
We have determined in detail the electron spectrum in the decay of bound muons. These results are especially relevant for the upcoming muon-electron conversion experiments.
Recent discoveries of manifestly exotic, narrow baryon resonances present a fundamental challenge for our theoretical understanding of low-energy QCD. This is a brief survey of their interpretation, emphasizing the possibility that diquark…
