It has been shown by H. Bethe more than 70 years ago that the number of excited states of a Fermi gas grows, at high excitation energies $Q$, like the exponential of the square root of $Q$. This result takes into account only the average…
Properties of single beauty baryons ($\Sigma_{b},\Lambda_{b}$) are studied based on the quark-diquark structure. The confinement potential is assumed as two body colour coulomb plus power potential with exponent $\nu$. We find a strong…
We consider the decay $\pi^- \to l \, \bar{\nu}_l$ ($l=e^-,\,\mu^-$) in the presence of an arbitrary large uniform magnetic field, using the symmetric gauge. The consequences of the axial symmetry of the problem and the issue of angular…
The decay width of the $\omega$ meson at finite temperature is calculated using the Gell-Mann Sharp Wagner model of $\rho$ pole dominance. Effective masses of the $\rho$ and $\omega$ are determined within the framework of real-time…
The capability of string theories to reproduce at low energy the observed pattern of quark and lepton masses and mixing angles is examined, focusing the attention on orbifold constructions, where the magnitude of Yukawa couplings depends on…
We improve the calculations of the $\eta \to \pi^0 \gamma \gamma$ decay within the context of meson chiral lagrangians. We use a chiral unitary approach for the meson-meson interaction, thus generating the $a_0(980)$ resonance and fixing…
With the advent of the LHC there is widespread interest in the discovery potential for physics beyond the standard model. In TeV-scale open string theory, the new physics can be manifest in the excitation and decay of new resonant…
In this work, we have investigated the physical properties like decay constants, radiative transitions, decay widths, and branching ratios for the ground and radially excited charmonia states. For the numerical calculations, we have adopted…
All extensions of the standard model that generate Majorana neutrino masses at the electro-weak scale introduce some "heavy" mediators, either fermions and/or scalars, weakly coupled to leptons. Here, by "heavy" we understand implicitly the…
We study the perturbation of bound states embedded in the continuous spectrum which are unstable by the Fermi Golden Rule. The approach to resonance theory based on spectral deformation is extended to a more general class of quantum systems…
We analyze the possibility of universality violation in diagonal leptonic decays of the $Z$ boson, in the context of interfamily "see-saw" models. In a minimal extension of the Standard Model with right-handed neutrino fields, we find that…
A list is given of those open questions concerning the dynamics of charm decays where there exists a strong need for an answer. Such a need is based on lessons to be learnt about QCD -- either in their own right or for a better…
In the dilute limit, the properties of fermionic lattice models with short-range attractive interactions converge to those of a dilute Fermi gas in continuum space. We investigate this connection using mean-field and we show that the…
The radiative decays D^0 -> K^0(bar) P^0 gamma with nonresonant K^0(bar) P^0 (P^0 = pi^0, eta, eta') are considered within the framework which combines heavy quark effective theory and the chiral Lagrangian. Due to neutral mesons the…
Medium modifications of the $\pi \omega \rho$ vertex are analyzed in context of the $\omega \to \pi^0 \gamma^\ast$ and $\rho \to \pi \gamma^\ast$ decays in nuclear matter. A relativistic hadronic model with mesons, nucleons, and…
Higgs boson radiative decays of the form $H\rightarrow f\bar{f}\gamma$ are calculated in the Standard Model using the complete one-loop expressions for the decay amplitudes. Contributions to the radiative width from leptons and light quarks…
We discuss the theoretical framework required for the computation of radiative corrections to semileptonic decay rates in lattice simulations, and in particular to those for $K_{\ell3}$ decays. This is an extension of the framework we have…
In this article, we assume the two nonets of scalar mesons below and above 1 GeV are all $\bar{q}q$ states, and study the semi-leptonic decays $B\to S\ell^-\bar{\nu}_{\ell}$, $B\to S\ell^+\ell^-$ and $B\to S\bar{\nu}\nu$ both in the…
We calculate the electromagnetic (EM) decay widths of the $B^{\pm}_c(2S)$ meson, which is observed recently by the ATLAS Collaboration. The main EM decay channels of this particle are $1{^3S_1}\gamma$ and $1{P}\gamma$, which, in literature,…
We present a general analysis of the lepton polarizations in the rare Bs ->\gamma \ell^+ \ell^- decays by using the most general model independent form of the effective Hamiltonian. The sensitivity of the longitudinal, transverse and normal…
