We report on a search for the rare decay K_L -> pi^0 nu nubar in the KTeV experiment at Fermilab. We searched for two-photon events whose kinematics were consistent with an isolated pi^0 coming from the decay K_L -> pi^0 nu nubar. One…
We calculate the branching ratios of the $K^+ \to \pi^0 l^+ \nu_l\gamma (l = e, \mu)$ decays, and the T-odd triple momenta correlations $\xi=\vec{q}\cdot[\vec{p}_l \times \vec{p}_\pi]/M^3_K$, due to the electromagnetic final state…
An event consistent with the signature expected for the rare kaon decay K+ --> pi+ nu anti-nu has been observed. In the pion momentum region examined, 211<P<230 MeV/c, the backgrounds are estimated to contribute 0.08 +/- 0.03 events. If the…
We have performed a search for the angular-momentum forbidden decay K+ -> pi+ gamma with the E787 detector at BNL. No events were observed in the pi+ kinematic region around 227 MeV/c. An upper limit on the branching ratio for the decay is…

A sample of 400000 events from the decay K+->pi+pi-e+nu(e)(K(e4)) has been collected in experiment E865 at the Brookhaven AGS. The analysis of these data yields new measurements of the K(e4) branching ratio (4.11+-0.01+-0.11)*10**(-5)), the…
We investigate the mechanism of K+ -> pi+ l+ l- (l= e, mu) decays in which a virtual photon is emitted either from the incoming K+ or the outgoing pi+. We point out some inconsistencies with and between two previous calculations, discuss…
Experiment 865 at the Brookhaven AGS obtained 410 K+ -> e+ nu e+e- and 2679 K+ -> mu+ nu e+e- events including 10% and 19% background. The branching ratios were measured to be (2.48+-0.14(stat.)+-0.14(syst.))x10^-8 (m_ee>150 MeV) and…

A search for the decay B+- to K+-K+-pi-+ was performed using data collected by the OPAL detector at LEP. These decays are strongly suppressed in the Standard Model but could occur with a higher branching ratio in supersymmetric models,…
Based on 3.26 fb$^{-1}$ data sample collected at CLEO III, we study the decay $\tau^-\to K^+K^-\pi^-\nu_\tau$, and improve the measurement of the branching ratio ${\cal B}(\tau^-\to K^+K^-\pi^-\nu_\tau)= (1.59\pm0.06\pm0.13)\times10^{-3}$,…
I review the theoretical basis of the prediction that the decay K_L -> pi+ pi- e+ e- should show a large CP- and T-violation, a prediction now confirmed by the KTeV experiment. The genesis of the effect lies in a large violation of CP- and…
