It is shown that the threshold productions of $\pi^0 pp$, $\pi^+ np$ and $\pi^+ d$ from $pp$ collisions can be consistently described by a model consisting of a pion s-wave rescattering and $N\bar N$ pair-terms of heavy-meson exchanges. The…
We use a recently proposed non-perturbative model, based on an effective strong coupling constant and free from tunable parameters, to study c-flavoured hadron production in e+e- annihilation. Charm-quark production is described in the…

We discuss a search for CPT violation in neutral charm meson oscillations. The data come from the Fermilab fixed-target experiment FOCUS. While flavor mixing in the charm sector is predicted to be small by the standard model, it is still…
The reaction $NN \to NN \pi$ offers a good testing ground for chiral effective field theory at intermediate energies. It challenges our understanding of the first inelastic channel in nucleon-nucleon scattering and of the charge-symmetry…
