Weak gravitational lensing observations probe the spectrum and evolution of density fluctuations and the cosmological parameters which govern them. The non-linear evolution of large scale structure produces a non-Gaussian signal which is…
We investigate the time modulation of weak nuclear decays as a method to probe axion dark matter. To this end, we develop a theoretical framework to compute the $\theta$-dependence of weak nuclear decays, including electron capture and…
Strong-flavor and parity a priori mixing in hadrons are shown to describe well the experimental evidence on weak radiative decays of hyperons. An independent determination of the a priori mixing angles is performed. The values obtained for…
Medium modifications of the $\pi \omega \rho$ vertex are analyzed in context of the $\omega \to \pi^0 \gamma^\ast$ and $\rho \to \pi \gamma^\ast$ decays in nuclear matter. A relativistic hadronic model with mesons, nucleons, and…
Measurements of the rates for the hadronic decays B^+- -> pi K along with the CP-averaged B^+- -> pi^+- pi^0 branching ratio can be used to bound and extract the weak phase gamma=-arg(V_ub). Using preliminary CLEO data, we obtain the bounds…
The quasielastic weak production of $\Lambda$ and $\Sigma$ hyperons from nucleons and nuclei induced by antineutrinos is studied in the energy region of some ongoing neutrino oscillation experiments in the intermediate energy region. The…
In this work we consider the energy subcritical 3D wave equation $\partial_t^2 u - \Delta u = \pm |u|^{p-1} u$ and discuss its (weakly) non-radiative solutions, i.e. the solutions defined in an exterior region $\{(x,t): |x|>|t|+R\}$ with…
The aim of this paper is to establish regularity for weak solutions to the nondiagonal quasilinear degenerate elliptic systems related to H\"{o}rmander's vector fields, where the coefficients are bounded with vanishing mean oscillation. We…
The limited angular resolutions and sensitivities historically available below 300 MHz have made it difficult to define the low end of the electron energy distribution, N(gamma). We extrapolate down from the well observed segments of radio…
Cabibbo allowed two-body hadronic weak decays of Lambda b baryons are analyzed in the factorization approximation. We use the covariant oscillator quark model to evaluate the heavy to heavy and heavy to light form factors. When applied in…
We consider weak gravity at accelerations $\alpha<a_H$ when Rindler and cosmological horizon collude at $R_H=c/H$, where $c$ is the velocity of light and $H$ is the Hubble parameter. This is manifest in reduced inertia $m$, below the value…
A quadrangle relation is shown to be satisfied by the amplitudes for $B^+ \to \pi^0 K^+,~\pi^+ K^0,~\eta K^+$, and $\eta' K^+$. By comparison with the corresponding relation satisfied by $B^-$ decay amplitudes, it is shown that the relative…
In 2015, Archdeacon proposed the notion of Heffter arrays in view of its connection to several other combinatorial objects. In the same paper he also presented the following variant. A weak Heffter array $\mathrm{W}\mathrm{H}(m,n;h,k)$ is…
We report on the result of some investigations concerning the radiative decays of decuplet baryons and the non-leptonic weak decays of the octet baryons in the context of topological chiral soliton models. Our results are compared with…
The differential decay spectrum $d\Gamma/dE_e dq^2$ for the semileptonic decay of an unpolarized hadron containing a b-quark, and the decay spectrum $d\Gamma/dE_e dq^2 d\!\cos\theta$ for polarized $\Lambda_b$ decay are computed to second…
We are at the verge of a new impact from hypernuclear experiments planned or already operative at various laboratories all over the world. The complementary of these different experimental approaches to hypernuclei provides a wide basis for…
Very recently, the LHCb collaboration has observed in the final state $\Lambda_c^+ K^-\pi^+\pi^+$ a resonant structure that is identified as the doubly-charmed baryon $\Xi_{cc}^{++}$. Inspired by this observation, we investigate the weak…
We calculate the self-energy and the vertex radiative corrections to the effect of parity nonconservation in heavy atoms. The sum of the corrections is of the form ${\cal A}\ln(\lambda_C/r_0)+{\calB}$, where ${\cal A}$ and ${\cal B}$ are…

We study CP violation in b-baryon decays of $\Xi_b^- \to \Xi^- D$ with $D = D^0, \bar{D}^0$ and $D_i~(i=1,2)$. We find that these baryonic decay processes provide an ideal opportunity to measure the weak phase due to the absence of the…
