The study of cosmic reionization has acquired increasing significance over the last few years because of various reasons. On the observational front, we now have good quality data of different types at high redshifts (quasar absorption…
Theoretical aspects of kaon and muon decays are reviewed. In particular, three topics on kaon and muon decays, namely $K \to \pi\nu \bar{\nu}$ processes, T violation in $K^+ \to \pi^0\mu^+ \nu$ decay and lepton flavor violation in muon…
I discuss the exciting prospects for exploring a wide range of new physics at a low-energy muon collider.
The current status of rare kaon decay experiments is reviewed. New limits in the search for Lepton Flavor Violation are discussed, as are new measurements of the CKM matrix.

The status of rare kaon decay experiments is reviewed. With the current generation of experiments now finishing, several exciting new results are available. New limits in the search for Lepton Flavor Violation (LFV) will be discussed, as…
We introduce and discuss basic topics in the theory of kaons and charmed particles. In the first part, theoretical methods in weak decays such as operator product expansion, renormalization group and the construction of effective…
We discuss theoretical issues in radiative rare kaon decays. The interest is twofold: to extract useful short-distance information and understand the underlying dynamics. We emphasize channels where either we can understand non-perturbative…
I will first give a brief but comprehensive review of the status of our knowledge in neutrino physics. With reference to a not too far future I will then discuss the perspectives that appear to me to be most important and promising.
There is no doubt that in the coming years we will witness the renaissance of kaon flavour physics with crucial measurements of the branching ratios for the rare decays $K^+\rightarrow\pi^+\nu\bar\nu$ and $K_{L}\rightarrow\pi^0\nu\bar\nu$…
This paper has been withdrawn by the author, because a profoundly overhauled and improved version, also with a new title and two more authors, has now been submitted to the arXiv, with no. hep-ph/0310059. In view of the elapsed time and the…
During the recent years experiments with neutral kaons have yielded remarkably sensitive results which are pertinent to such fundamental phenomena as CPT invariance (protecting causality), time-reversal invariance violation, coherence of…
This is an update of the two articles (H.Y. Cheng, 2009; Cheng, 2015) in which charmed baryon physics around 2007 and 2015, respectively, were reviewed. In this review we emphasize the experimental progress and the theoretical development…
Kaon experiments are now focusing on searching for new physics beyond the standard model. For example, CERN NA62, J-PARC KOTO and J-PARC TREK-E36 experiments are starting up to study K->pi nu nu-bar decay modes, a lepton flavor violation,…
Recent results and future prospects of rare kaon-decay experiments at KEK, BNL, CERN and FNAL are reviewed. Topics include lepton flavor violation, T-violating transverse muon polarization in K+{mu3}, exotic decays, K0 -> pi0 ell+ ell-, and…
With the running B, kaon and neutrino physics experiments, flavour physics takes centre stage within today's particle physics. We discuss the opportunities offered by these experiments in our search for new physics beyond the SM and discuss…
An overview of KAON 99 with commentary is presented. Emphasis is placed on the state of CKM mixing and CP violation. The Jarlskog invariant, J_{CP}, is shown to provide a useful quantitative comparison of K and B phenomenology. The…
