Within the framework of the QCD sum rules, we consider the three-point correlation function, work at the limit q^2 -> 0 and m_\pi -> 0, and pick out the singular term ~ {1\over q^2} to extract the pionic coupling constants of the 1^{-+}…

Several methods proposed to measure the angle $\gamma$ in the KM unitarity triangle assumed that the tree contribution to $B^-\to \pi^-\bar K^0 $ is purely due to annihilation contributions and is negligibly small. This assumption has to be…

This letter is the first report of the KL -> pi+- e-+ nu e+ e- decay. Based on 19208+-144 events, we determine the branching fraction, B(KL -> pi+- e-+ nu e+ e-; Mee > 5 MeV/c^2, E*ee > 30 MeV) = (1.285+-0.041)x10^-5, and Gamma(Ke3ee; Mee…

The $K_L \to \pi^0 \nu \bar\nu$ decay is analyzed in a model independent way. When lepton flavor is conserved, this decay mode is a manifestation of CP violating interference between mixing and decay. Consequently, a theoretically clean…

We propose to measure the $\tau^-\to K_1^-\nu_\tau \to (K^-\omega) \nu_\tau\to (K^- \pi^+\pi^-\pi^0)\nu_\tau $ decay in order to determine the $K_1$ axial vector mixing angle $\theta_{K_1}$. We derive, for the first time, the differential…
