We discuss the role of electroweak penguins in $B$ decays to two light pseudoscalar mesons. We confirm that the extraction of the weak phase $\alpha$ through the isospin analysis involving $B\to\pi\pi$ decays is largely unaffected by such…

We consider the contribution to $K \rightarrow 2 \pi$ decays from the non-diagonal $s \ra d$ quark transition amplitude. First, we calculate the most important part of the $s \rightarrow d$ transition, the so-called self-penguin amplitude…

Recently, we pointed out that chiral transformation properties of penguin operators change in the transition from unquenched to (partially) quenched QCD. As a consequence, new operators appear in (partially) quenched QCD penguins,…

We present the ingredients necessary for the determination of physical K->pi pi decay amplitudes for Delta I=3/2 transitions, from lattice simulations at unphysical kinematics and the use of chiral perturbation theory at next-to-leading…

We consider the matrix elements of the left-handed flavor-conserving four-quark operators in the nucleon and pion states. Using chiral symmetry, we derive relationships among these matrix elements. We argue that the $\Delta I = 1/2$ rule of…

We have combined a new systematic calculation of mesonic matrix elements at O(p^6) from an effective chiral lagrangian approach using Wilson coefficients taken from [G.Buchalla, A.J.Buras, M.E.Lautenbacher, Rev.Mod.Phys. 68 (1996) 1125],…

In this paper we present a calculation of the $\Delta S=1$ effective weak Hamiltonian including next-to-leading order QCD and QED corrections. At a scale $\mu$ of the order of few GeV, the Wilson coefficients of the operators are given in…

We calculate the hadronic matrix elements to $O(p^4)$ in the chiral expansion for the ($\Delta S =1$) $K^0 \to 2 \pi$ decays and the ($\Delta S=2$) $\bar K^0$-$K^0$ oscillation. This is done within the framework of the chiral quark model.…

The QCD corrections to electroweak parameters depend on the renormalization scheme and scales used to define the top-quark mass. We analyze these dependences for the W-boson mass predicted via Delta r to O(alpha alpha_s) and O(alpha…

During the last four years several parameters relevant for the analysis of the CP-violating ratio epsilon'/epsilon improved and/or changed significantly. In particular, the experimental value of epsilon'/epsilon and the strange quark mass…
