We propose formulas of the nuclear beta-decay rate that are useful in a practical calculation. The decay rate is determined by the product of the lepton and hadron current densities. A widely used formula relies upon the fact that the…

We comment on a recent paper by Giacosa, Gutsche, and Lyobovitskij, in which it is argued that a quarkonium interpretation of the $\sigma$ meson should give rise to a much smaller two-photon decay width than commonly assumed. The reason for…
Hadronic tau decays represent a clean laboratory for the precise study of quantum chromodynamics (QCD). Observables (sum rules) based on the spectral functions of hadronic tau decays can be related to QCD quark-level calculations to…

Two-loop QED corrections to the decay rate of parapositronium (p-Ps) into two photons are presented. We find Gamma(p-Ps --> 2 photons) = 7989.64(2)/microsec. The non-logarithmic O(alpha^2) corrections turn out to be small, contrary to some…
