We discuss precision tests of the standard model in radiative and semileptonic rare B-decays and CP-violating asymmetries, and possible signatures of supersymmetry in these processes. Motivated by current data, and with an eye on the…
Semileptonic decays of the $\Xi_b$ baryon are studied in the framework of the relativistic quark-diquark model based on the quasipotential approach. The weak decay form factors are calculated with the comprehensive account of all…
After a short introduction to the nonmesonic weak decay (NMWD) $\Lambda N\go nN$ of $\Lambda$-hypernuclei we discuss the long-standing puzzle on the ratio $\Gamma_n/\Gamma_p$, and some recent experimental evidences that signalized towards…
Recent measurements of $CP$-related comparisons of the weak-interaction parameters that describe the decays of the $\Xi^-$ and the $\bar{\Xi}^+$ doubly strange hyperon and antihyperon are reviewed and their significance is discussed.
If CP is violated in any decay process involving leptons it will signify the existense of a new force (called the X boson) responsible for CP violation that may be the key to understanding matter-antimatter asymmetry in the universe. We…
We investigate a minimal extension of the Leptogenesis framework that simultaneously explains the observed baryon asymmetry and dark matter (DM) abundance through the decay of a heavy Majorana neutrino. In this scenario, CP violation arises…
It is important to explore the potential existence of lepton asymmetry in the neutrino sector. Conducting a joint analysis of DESI DR2 BAO data and \emph{Planck} 2018 CMB data, we obtain the upper limits on the neutrino degeneracy…
We compute for the first time the decay width of lambda-hypernuclei in a relativistic mean-field approximation to the Walecka model. Due to the small mass difference between the lambda-hyperon and its decay products---a nucleon and a…
We have measured the energy spectra of pions and protons emitted in the weak decay of 12_Lambda_C, 28_Lambda_Si, and Lambda_Fe hypernuclei produced via the (pi+, K+) reaction. The decay widths of the pi- mesonic decay (Lambda -> p + pi-)…
Within the framework of R-parity violating minimal supergravity model, at least three relatively large lepton-number violating $\l'$ type trilinear couplings at the GUT scale, not directly related to neutrino physics, can naturally generate…
We study the nonmesonic weak decay (NMWD) $\Lambda N \to nN$ of the ${}^{12}_{\Lambda} C$ hypernucleus induced by the nucleon $N=n,p$ with transition rate $\Gamma_N$. The nuclear process is described by the interplay of two models; one…
We review the mechanism of weak decay of hypernuclei, with emphasis on the non-mesonic decay channels. Various theoretical approaches are discussed and the results are compared with the available experimental data.
Recently, several hints of lepton non-universality have been observed in the semileptonic B meson decays in terms of both in the neutral current ($b\to s l \bar{l}$) and charged current ($b\to c l \bar{\nu_{l}}$) transitions. Motivated by…
Decays of charmonium into hyperon and antihyperon pairs provide a pristine laboratory for exploring hyperon properties, such as their polarization and decay parameters, and for conducting tests of fundamental symmetries. This brief review…
It is shown that the R-parity violating decays of the lighter top squarks (${\widetilde t}_1$) triggered by the lepton number violating couplings $\lambda^{\prime}_{i33}$, where the lepton family index i = 1-3, can be observed at the LHC…
We study the trend of the nuclear symmetry energy in relativistic mean-field models with appearance of the hyperon and quark degrees of freedom at high densities. On the pure hadron level, we focus on the role of $\Lambda$ hyperons in…
We suppose that the lightest supersymmetric particle (LSP) in the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM) is the dark matter. The bino-like LSP can decay through the SO(10) gauge interactions, if one right-handed (RH) neutrino…
Non-leptonic two-body weak decays of baryons are an important tool to probe the combined charge-conjugation--parity symmetry (CP) violation. We explain why the decays of strange baryons provide complementary information to the decays of…
The first observation of $CP$ violation in baryon decays was recently reported by the LHCb collaboration in $\Lambda_b^0\to pK^-\pi^+\pi^-$ with $A_{CP} = (2.45 \pm 0.46 \pm 0.10)\%$, which inspires the study on baryon non-leptonic decays.…
Top pair production at LHC is the ideal place to search for nonstandard Wtb couplings in t -> W b -> l nu b decays. The lb forward-backward asymmetry in the W rest frame is very sensitive to sigma_{mu nu} couplings, and can spot one-loop…
