The preliminary results of PIBETA experiment strongly suggest the presence of non V-A anomalous interactions in the radiative pion decay. We assume that they arise as a result of the exchange of new intermediate chiral spin-1 bosons which…
Recently a strong indication for a deviation from the standard model (SM) has been obtained by PIBETA Collaboration. Namely, SM fails to describe the energy distribution and the branching ratio of the radiative decays of the positive pions…
The recent results of the PIBETA experiment strongly suggest the presence of a non-(V-A) anomalous interaction in the radiative pion decay. The same interaction should inevitably contribute to the neutron decay and in particular it should…

We review the recent measurements of the rare pion decays: Pi+ -> Pi0 e+ Nu [pion beta, Pi_(e3), or Pi_beta decay], radiative decay Pi+ -> e+ Nu Gamma [Pi_(e2Gamma) or RPD], and Pi+ -> e+ Nu [Pi_(e2)] decay, as well as the radiative muon…

The strength of the interaction of three pions and a photon, $F_{3\pi}$ is predicted by the axial anomaly in terms of the pion decay constant, a relation that is frequently used to constrain low-energy radiative processes involving pions,…

Effective three meson couplings, based in flavor U(3) quark-antiquark interactions, are considered to describe two light neutral axial meson Strong decays, $A \sim f_1(1285)$ and $f_{1S} (1420)$, and the charged rho meson decay in the…
In this paper new predictions for the spontaneous pion emission accompanied by fission are presented for all nuclei with Z between 100 and 108. The bimodal fission as an indirect experimental evidence for the pionic radioactivity is…
