Recently the radiative B decay to the strange axial-vector mesons, B --> K1(1270) gamma, has been observed with rather large branching ratio. This process is particularly interesting as the subsequent K1 decay into its three body final…
The long-awaited $B_s\to \mu^+\mu^-$ mode has finally been observed at rate consistent with Standard Model, albeit lower by 1.2$\sigma$. There is some hint for New Physics in the rarer $B_d^0 \to \mu^+\mu^-$ decay, especially if the…
The LHCb measurements on the B ->$ K^*$$\mu^+ \mu^-$ angular observables have shown slight deviations from their Standard Model predictions. The significance of the deviations in the B -> $K^*$$\mu^+ \mu^-$ decay depends on the assumptions…
In the heavy quark limit, both vector mesons in the charmless B -> VV decay should have zero helicity and the corresponding amplitude is proportional to the form factor difference $(A_1-A_2)$. The first observed charmless $B\to VV$ mode,…
The photon polarization in B -> V gamma is a sensitive probe of right-handed currents. In the time dependent decay rate of B_s -> phi gamma the coefficients S and H in front of the sin(Delta m_s t) and the sinh(Delta Gamma_s /2 t) terms are…
We report the first observation of radiative decay B^0 -> \phi K^0 \gamma using a data sample of 772x10^6 BBar pairs collected at the Y(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e+e- collider. We observe a signal…
The theoretical study of cross sections for polarized--target measurements of $ \pi N \to \pi \pi N $ reactions gives evidence that the interplay between the strong contribution from OPE mechanism and the one from isobar exchanges, which is…
The problem of quantizing the canonical pair angle and action variables phi and I is almost as old as quantum mechanics itself and since decades a strongly debated but still unresolved issue in quantum optics. The present paper proposes a…
The Stokes V parameter characterizes asymmetry of amplitudes between right- and left-handed waves, and non-vanishing value of the V parameter yields a circularly polarized signal. Cosmologically, V parameter may be a direct probe for parity…
We perform a comprehensive study of the impact of new-physics operators with different Lorentz structures on decays involving the b -> s mu+ mu- transition. We examine the effects of new vector-axial vector (VA), scalar-pseudoscalar (SP)…
Observation of top quark flavor changing neutral process $t\to c +\gamma$ at the LHC would be the signal of physics beyond the Standard Model. If anomalous $t\to c\gamma$ coupling exists, it will affect the precisely measured…
The first full angular analysis of the $B^0 \to D^{*-} D_s^{*+}$ decay is performed using 6 fb$^{-1}$ of $pp$ collision data collected with the LHCb experiment at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. The $D_s^{*+} \to D_s^+ \gamma$ and…
Possible anomalous top-quark couplings induced by SU(2) x U(1) gauge-invariant dimension-6 effective operators were studied in the process of t t-bar productions and decays at polarized gamma gamma colliders. Two CP-violating asymmetries, a…
Using the general, model independent form of the effective Hamiltonian, the general expressions of the longitudinal, normal and transversal polarization asymmetries for (l^-) and (l^+) and combinations of them for the exclusive (B -> K l^+…
The available data on $|\Delta B| = |\Delta S| = 1$ decays are in good agreement with the Standard Model when permitting subleading power corrections of about 15% at large hadronic recoil. Constraining new-physics effects in…

We predict high-order harmonics in which the polarization within the spectral bandwidth of each harmonic varies continuously and significantly. For example, the interaction of counter-rotating circularly-polarized bichromatic drivers having…
We study primordial gravitational waves (PGWs) in the Horava-Lifshitz (HL) theory of quantum gravity, in which high-order spatial derivative operators, including the ones violating parity, generically appear in order for the theory to be…
We analyze the $K^-p\to K^+\Xi^-$ and $K^-p\to K^0\Xi^0$ processes in the energy region $1.8<\sqrt{s}<2.8$ GeV within an effective Lagrangian approach. The $\Lambda(1800)$ and $\Sigma(2250)$ resonances, along with the ground states $\Sigma$…
