The decays and mixing of $K$ mesons are remarkably sensitive to the weak interactions of quarks and leptons at high energies. They provide important tests of the standard model at both first and second order in the Fermi constant $G_F$ and…
Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) is a firmly established part of the Standard Model, yet its long distance properties remain challenging at a conceptual level. In recent years significant experimental and theoretical progress has been made…
We review recent experimental progress in the domain of rare radiative, semileptonic and leptonic B decays. The statistical precision attained for these decays has reached a level where they start to impose meaningful constraints on the…

We present an overview of the recent neutral current $B$ decays focusing on the deviations with respect to the Standard Model predictions that are observed in $b \to s \ell^+\ell^-$ transitions, and discuss their implications for new…
Rare decays were essential in the discovery of the CKM mechanism of flavour and CP violation and are highly sensitive probes of physics beyond the Standard Model. In this summary the current status and future prospects of experimental…
The rare decays of the $K$ meson have had a long tradition as a laboratory for testing the symmetry properties of the weak interactions, and the manner in which these symmetries are broken by higher order effects. Present--day interest is…
A brief review on the recent theoretical progress in hot/dense QCD is given. Special emphasis is put on the non-perturbative aspects of QCD plasma and the modification of hadron proporties near the critical temperature of chiral transition.
I discuss developments in the area of nucleon resonance excitations that are necessary to bring our understanding of nucleon structure in the regime of strong QCD to a qualitatively new level. They involve the collection of high quality…

We review current issues in exclusive semileptonic tau decays. We present the formalism of structure functions, and then discuss predictions for final states with kaons, for decays into four pions and for radiative corrections to the decay…
We report a first, complete lattice QCD calculation of the long-distance contribution to the $K^+\to\pi^+\nu\bar{\nu}$ decay within the standard model. This is a second-order weak process involving two four-Fermi operators that is highly…
In Ref [1] we have presented the results of an exploratory lattice QCD computation of the long-distance contribution to the $K^+\to\pi^+\nu\bar{\nu}$ decay amplitude. In the present paper we describe the details of this calculation, which…
Rare radiative decays based on b->s+gamma transitions are among the most prominent examples of flavor-changing neutral current processes. They benefit from good theoretical control and experimental accessibility, large sensitivity to…
Meson decays offer a good opportunity to probe new physics. The rare kaon decay $K^+ \rightarrow \pi^+ \nu\bar{\nu}$ is one of the cleanest of them and, for this reason, is rather sensitive to new physics, in particular, vector mediators.…
We discuss several recent measurements of rare charmed hadron decays. Focus is placed on radiative and annihilation topologies highlighting their sensitivity to new physics and pointing out the strengths and weaknesses of different…
