The dependence of the $K^+ \to \pi^0 l^+ \nu_l \gamma$ decay width on the $T$-odd kinematical variable, $ \xi = {\vec q \cdot [\vec p_l \times \vec p_\pi]} / {M^3}$, is studied at the tree and one-loop levels of Standard Model. It is shown…

We compute the next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) QCD corrections to the decay $t(\uparrow) \to X_b +W^+$ of a polarized top quark. The spin-momentum correlation in this quasi two-body decay is described by the polar angle distribution…
We discuss the three-body decays stop_1 -> W^+ b neutralino_1, stop_1 -> H^+ b neutralino_1, stop_1 -> b slepton_i neutrino_l, and stop_1 -> b sneutrino_l l^+$ ($l =e,\mu,\tau$) of the lighter top squark within the minimal supersymmetric…
The top quark decays before it hadronizes. Before its spin state can be changed in a process of strong interaction, it is directly transferred to the top quark decay products. The top quark spin can be deduced by studying angular…
Using factorization, we compute, within the standard model, the T-violating triple-product correlations in the charmless decays Lambda_b -> F_1 F_2, where F_1 is a light spin-1/2 baryon and F_2 is a pseudoscalar (P) or vector (V) meson. We…
The one-loop supersymmetric QCD corrections to the top quark semileptonic decays $t\to b \bar{l} {\nu_l}$ are considered. The corrections are found to reduce the decay width. In the still acceptable parameter space the corrections to the…
We calculate the next-to-leading order inclusive total cross sections for the associated production processes $pp\to \tilde{t}_i\tilde{\chi}_k^-+X$ in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model at the CERN LHC. Our results provide the…
We present a complete calculation of the QCD corrections (of the order $\alpha_s$) to the width of the decay $H^+ \to t \bar{b}$ within the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. We find that the QCD corrections are quite important, and…
We investigate the semileptonic decay of the scalar tetraquark $T_{bs; \overline{u}\overline{d}}^{-}$ to final state $T_{cs;\overline{u}\overline{d} }^{0} l \overline{\nu}_l$, which proceeds due to the weak transition $b \to c l…
We present a fully differential next-to-next-to-leading order calculation of t-channel single top-quark production and decay at the LHC under narrow-width approximation and neglecting cross-talk between incoming protons. We focus on the…
We consider the combined measurements of CP-averaged decay rates and direct CP asymmetries of $B^\pm\to K^\pm \ell^+ \ell^-$ and $B^\pm\to \pi^\pm \ell^+ \ell^-$ to probe (non-local) four-quark operator matrix element contributions to rare…
We present a calculation of O(\alpha_s) contributions to the process of t-channel single-top production and decay, which include virtual and real corrections arising from interference of the production and decay subprocesses. The…
Fermionic decays of the scalar leptoquarks $ S=S_1^{(+)}, S_1^{(-)}, S_m $ and of the scalar gluons $F=F_1, F_2$ predicted by the four color symmetry model with the Higgs mechanism of the quark-lepton mass splitting are investigated. Widths…
The results of a search for a supersymmetric partner of the top quark (top squark), pair-produced in proton-proton collisions at sqrt(s) = 8 TeV, are presented. The search, which focuses on R-parity violating, chargino-mediated decays of…
We show two asymmetric estimates, one on the number of collinear triples and the other on that of solutions to $(a_1+a_2)(a_1^{\prime\prime\prime}+a_2^{\prime\prime\prime})=(a_1^\prime+a_2^\prime)(a_1^{\prime\prime}+a_2^{\prime\prime})$. As…
We present a detailed study of the decays of the Higgs bosons $H^+$, $H^0$, and $A^0$ within the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model including SUSY--QCD corrections. We find that the supersymmetric modes $\tilde t \bar{\tilde b}$ ($\tilde…
Precise measurements of the properties of the top quark test the Standard Model (SM) and can be used to constrain new physics models. The top quark pair charge asymmetry is an asymmetry predicted to occur beyond leading-order QCD in the SM,…
We discuss the effects of QCD corrections to the on-shell decay $t \to b W$. We resolve the scale ambiguity using the Brodsky-Lepage-Mackenzie scheme, and find that the appropriate coupling constant is $\alpha_{s}^{ \overline{MS}}…
