The nonleptonic decay $\Xi^0_c \to \Lambda^+_c \pi^-$ with $\Delta C=0$ is systematically studied in the framework of the covariant confined quark model with accounting for both short and long distance effects. The short distance effects…
We describe an approach to understanding exponential decay of correlation functions in asymptotically free theories. This approach is systematic; it does not start from any conjectured mechanism or picture. We begin by studying the metric…
A novel comparison between the data and the theory is proposed for the nonmesonic (NM) weak decay of hypernuclei. Instead of confronting the primary decay rates, as is usually done, we focus attention on the effective decay rates that are…
We discuss the relationship between the graphical amplitudes T, C, P, ... used to parameterize nonleptonic B decay amplitudes, and matrix elements of operators in the soft-collinear effective theory (SCET) at leading order in \Lambda/m_b.…
We develop a method to compute the sphaleron rate in the electroweak broken phase nonperturbatively. The rate is somewhat slower than a perturbative estimate. In SU(2) X U(1) Higgs theory at the physical value of Theta_W, and assuming that…
The octet-baryon axial-vector charges and the g1/f1 ratios measured in the semileptonic hyperon decays are studied up to O(p^3) using the covariant baryon chiral perturbation theory with explicit decuplet contributions. We clarify the role…

In general, perturbative expansions of observables in powers of the coupling constant in quantum field theories are asymptotic series. In many cases it is possible to apply resummation techniques to assign a unique finite value to an…
We investigate the nonperturbative parameters entering the heavy quark expansion for the inclusive decay rates of the $\Lambda_b$ baryon, focusing on the kinetic term $\hat{\mu}_\pi^2$ and the Darwin term $\hat{\rho}_D^3$. Recent…
The static baby Skyrme model is investigated in the extreme limit where the energy functional contains only the potential and Skyrme terms, but not the Dirichlet energy term. It is shown that the model with potential $V=\frac12(1+\phi_3)^2$…
The recent introduction of a deformed non-minimal version of the noncommutative Standard Model in the enveloping-algebra approach, having a one-loop renormalisable gauge sector involving a higher order gauge term, motivates us to consider…
Nonperturbative QCD contributions to the inclusive semileptonic decay of the B meson consist of the dynamic and kinematic components. We calculate the decay width in an approach based on the light-cone expansion and the heavy quark…
Properties of b-baryon decay matrix elements (amplitudes) have been derived in a nonsymmetric quark model without any use of SU(6), SU(3), or SU(2) (isotopic spin) groups. Equalities between pairs of amplitudes are derived, and…
Exact configurations of the four dimensional Skyrme model are presented. The static configurations have the profile which behaves as a kink and, consequently, the corresponding energy momentum tensor describes a domain wall. Furthermore, a…
The elastic hadronic amplitude is calculated using the nonperturbative light-cone dipole representation for gluon bremsstrahlung. The data for large mass diffraction demand a two-scale structure of light hadrons: the gluon clouds of the…
Nonfactorizable contributions to exclusive two-body nonleptonic weak decays of heavy mesons arising from color octet currents, characterized by the parameter $r_2$, are extracted from the data. It is found that $r_2$ is equal to $\sim…
Using the known experimental data for the hyperon semileptonic decay constants, we calculate integrated quark densities $\Delta q_\Lambda$ and $% \Delta \Sigma_\Lambda$ for the hyperon $\Lambda$ with flavor SU(3) symmetry breaking taken…
Generally, natural scientific problems are so complicated that one has to establish some effective perturbation or nonperturbation theories with respect to some associated ideal models. In this Letter, a new theory that combines…
In the heavy-quark limit, the hadronic matrix elements entering nonleptonic $B$-meson decays into two light mesons can be calculated from first principles including ``nonfactorizable'' strong-interaction corrections. The $B\to\pi K,\pi\pi$…
We consider a Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model scenario in which the only light superparticles are a bino-like dark matter candidate and a nearly-degenerate slepton. It is notoriously difficult to probe this scenario at the Large…
