We report on dispersive and finite energy sum rule analyses of the electroweak penguin matrix elements < (pi pi) | Q_{7,8} | K > in the chiral limit. We accomplish the correct perturbative matching (scale and scheme dependence) at NLO in…
We perform a finite energy sum rule analysis of the flavor ud two-point V-A current correlator, Delta Pi (Q^2). The analysis, which is performed using both the ALEPH and OPAL databases for the V-A spectral function, Delta rho, allows us to…
It is shown that the K -> pi pi matrix elements of the four-quark operator Q_7, generated by the electroweak penguin-like diagrams of the Standard Model, can be calculated to first non-trivial order in the chiral expansion and in the 1/Nc…
We compare recent theoretical determinations of weak matrix elements of the electroweak penguin operators Q7 and Q8. We pay special attention to the renormalization scheme dependence of these determinations as well as to the influence of…
We study the correlation between $\epe$ and $\Delta I=1/2$ rule in the framework of non-linear $\sigma$ model including scalar mesons. The matrix elements of QCD and Electroweak (EW) penguin operators are computed within factorization…
We present results for Delta I=3/2 and Delta S=2 matrix elements relevant for CP violation in K->Pi Pi decays and for the K_S-K_L mass difference in the standard model and beyond. They were obtained with Neuberger fermions on quenched gauge…
We present the calculation of $K\to\pi\pi$ matrix elements of electroweak penguin operators {\it i.e.} $Q_7$ and $Q_8$. In the numerical simulation, we use the gauge configurations generated by the combination of $N_f=2$ domain-wall…
We calculate the O(alpha_s) corrections to the Z^0-penguin and electroweak box diagrams relevant for non-leptonic Delta F = 1 decays with F = S, B. This calculation provides the complete O(alpha_w alpha_s) and O(alpha_w alpha_s sin^2…
We present a numerical computation of matrix elements of DI=3/2 K-->pi pi decays by using Wilson fermions. In order to extrapolate to the physical point we work at unphysical kinematics and we resort to Chiral Perturbation Theory at the…
The one-loop corrections to K->pi and K->2pi matrix elements of the electroweak penguin operator are calculated. General next-to-leading order relations between the K->pi and K->2pi amplitudes are obtained. The fractional shift Delta_2 =…
We extend in several respects our earlier work on O(p^2) corrections to matrix elements of the electroweak penguin operator O_{ewp}. First, to facilitate comparison with certain lattice studies we calculate O(p^2) corrections to…
We present results for the \Delta S=2 matrix elements which are required to study neutral kaon mixing in the standard model (SM) and beyond (BSM). We also provide leading chiral order results for the matrix elements of the electroweak…
Exact analytical expressions for the $\Delta S=1$ coupling $\im G_E$ in terms of observable spectral functions are given. This coupling determines the size of the $\Delta I=3/2$ contribution to $\epsilon'$. We show analytically how the…
I review some progress made on the problem of calculating electroweak processes of mesons at low energy with the use of an approximation to large-Nc QCD which we call the Minimal Hadronic Approximation. An update of results for the matrix…

We present new results for the matrix elements of the Q_6 and Q_4 penguin operators, evaluated in a large-Nc approach which incorporates important O(N_c^2\frac{n_f}{N_c}) unfactorized contributions. Our approach shows analytic matching…
I review the progress made in the calculation of the electroweak penguins Q_{7,8} in the framework of the Hadronic Approximation to large-Nc QCD, and give an update of results.
We reconsider the dispersive evaluation of the weak matrix elements <2pi_{I=2}|Q_{7,8}|K0> in the chiral limit. The perturbative matching is accomplished fully within the scheme dependence used in the two loop weak OPE calculations. The…
In the calculation of non-leptonic weak decay rates, a "mismatch" arises when the QCD evolution of the relevant weak hamiltonian down to hadronic scales is performed in unquenched QCD, but the hadronic matrix elements are then computed in…
