The correlation between the two $\tau$-polarisations is predicted to be opposite $(+-/-+)$ for the $H/A \to \tau^+\tau^-$ signal, while it corresponds to the same sign combinations for the Drell-Yan $(++/--)$ and $t \bar t$ $(--)$…
We report the first observation of $e^+e^- \to \rho^+\rho^-$, in a data sample of 379 $fb^{-1}$ collected with the BABAR detector at the {PEP-II} $e^+e^-$ storage ring at center-of-mass energies near $\sqrt{s} = 10.58 GeV. We measure a…
We calculate the transverse muon polarization in the decay $K^{\pm}\to\pi^0\mu^{\pm}\nu$ induced by the electromagnetic two-photon final-state interaction. For the central part of the Dalitz plot the typical value of this polarization is…
A search for T-violating muon polarization in the $K^+ \to \pi^0 \mu^+\nu$ decay has been performed at KEK using stopped kaons. A new improved limit was obtained, $P_T= -0.0017 \pm 0.0023 (stat) \pm 0.0011 (syst)$, corresponding to a 90 %…
