Within the frameworks of the light-front quark model (LFQM) and chiral perturbation theory (ChPT) of $O(p^6)$, we reevaluate the form factors of the $K^+ \to \gamma$ transition. We use these form factors to study the decay of $K^+ \to e^+…
We study the radiative leptonic $D$ meson decays of $D^+_{(s)}\to \l^+\nu_{\l}\gamma$ ($\l=e,\mu,\tau$), $D^0\to \nu\bar{\nu}\gamma$ and $D^0\to \l^+\l^-\gamma$ ($l=e,\mu$) within the light front quark model. In the standard model, we find…
We calculate the rates and lepton (l) invariant mass distributions for decays of the form 0^{-+}->l^+l^-\gamma, which are important radiative corrections to the purely leptonic decays 0^{-+}->l^+l^-. Our approach uses the loop diagrams…
We calculate the momentum dependent form factors of $P \to \gamma^* \gamma^*$($P=\pi^{0}, \eta$) within the light-front quark model. Using the form factors, we examine the decays of $P \to l^+ l^-$, $P \to l^+ l^- \gamma$ and $P \to l^+ l^-…
We study the $K_L$ and $K_S$ decays into four leptons ($e\bar{e}e\bar{e}, \, \mu\bar{\mu}\mu\bar{\mu},\, e\bar{e}\mu\bar{\mu}$) where we use a form factor motivated by vector meson dominance, and show the dependence of the branching ratios…
The double lepton pair decay modes of the K_L meson are analyzed including all contributions of order p^6 in Chiral Perturbation Theory. The experimentally established e^+ e^- e^+ e^- mode and the recently observed e^+ e^- mu^+ mu^- mode…
We discuss the amplitude of the $B\to l^+l^-l'\nu'$ decays and the differential decay rate $d^2\Gamma/dq^2dq'^2$, $q$ the momentum of the $l^+l^-$ pair emitted from the electromagnetic vertex and $q'$ the momentum of the $l'\nu'$ pair…
We present a comprehensive calculation of the $K_L\to\gamma^*\gamma^*$ form factor in dispersion theory, using input from the leptonic decays $K_L\to\ell^+\ell^-\gamma$, $K_L\to \ell_1^+\ell_1^-\ell_2^+\ell_2^-$, the hadronic mode $K_L\to…
We calculate the transition formfactors for the B -> K l(+) l(-) decay in the framework of the light cone QCD sum rules. The invariant dilepton mass distribution and the final lepton longitudinal polarization asymmetry are investigated. The…
We have observed the decay $K_L\to \mu^+\mu^- \gamma \gamma$ at the KTeV experiment at Fermilab. This decay presents a formidable background to the search for new physics in $K_L\to\pi^0\mu^+\mu^-$. The 1997 data yielded a sample of 4…
A complete experiment on decay $K_L \to l^+ l^-$ will not only consist of measurement of the decay rates but also lepton polarization etc. These additional observations will yield tests of CP invariance in these decays. In $K_L$ and $K_S$…
We study the decays of $B_{s,d} \to l^+ l^- \gamma (l=e, \mu,\tau)$ within the light-front model. We calculate the tensor type form factors and use these form factors to evaluate the decay branching ratios. We find that, in the standard…
We investigate the transition formfactors for the B -> K^* l^+ l^- (l = mu, tau) decay in the light cone QCD. It is found that the light cone and 3-point QCD sum rules analyses for some of the formfactors for the decay B -> K^* l^+ l^- lead…
The decay $K_L \to \gamma \nu \bar{\nu}$ is analyzed within the standard model. Short-distance contributions are found to dominate, yielding a branching ratio of $\sim 0.7 \times 10^{-11}$. We examine the possibility that non-standard model…

We have collected a 43 event sample of the decay $K_L\to e^+e^-\mu^+\mu^-$ with negligible backgrounds and measured its branching ratio to be $(2.62 \pm 0.40 \pm 0.17)\times 10^{-9} $. We see no evidence for CP violation in this decay. In…
The lepton-flavour-violating decay K_L --> e \mu is studied in detail within the context of SU(2)_R x SU(2)_L x U(1)_(B-L) models, which include heavy Majorana neutrinos. Particular attention is paid to the gauge independence of this decay…
We consider the axial-vector mesons $K_1(1270)$ and $K_1(1400)$ as a mixture of two $|^3P_1\rangle$ and $|^1P_1\rangle$ states with the mixing angle $\theta$ that equal to $(-34\pm 13)^\circ$. We calculate the light-front distribution…
