Preliminary values for the K+ -> pi+ mu+ mu- branching ratio and form factor are reported, based on 400 events, a factor of 2 more in total events and 100 times the present world sample of fully reconstructed events. The results are…
We study the resonant contributions in the process $\bar{B}^0\to K^- \pi^+\mu^+\mu^-$ with the $K^-\pi^+$ invariant mass square $m_{K\pi}^2\in [1, 5] {\rm GeV}^2$. Width effects of the involved strange mesons, $K^*(1410), K_0^*(1430),…
Using a large sample of D+ -> K- pi+ mu+ nu decays collected by the FOCUS photoproduction experiment at Fermilab, we present the first measurements of the helicity basis form factors free from the assumption of spectroscopic pole dominance.…
Dalitz decays of $\omega$ and $\rho$ mesons, $\omega\to \pi^0\gamma^*\to\pi^0 e^+e^-$ and $\rho^0\to \pi^0\gamma^*\to\pi^0 e^+e^-$, produced in $pp$ collisions are calculated within a covariant effective meson-nucleon theory. We argue that…
The experimental situation with regard to measurements of the pion charge form factor is reviewed. Both existing data and planned experiments are discussed.
In the region of large mu^+ mu^- invariant mass, the decay spectrum of K_L -> mu^+ mu^- gamma deviates from the Dalitz pair spectrum, as a result of interference between conversion (K_L -> gamma^* gamma -> mu^+ mu^- gamma) and…
The measurements of psi(2S) -> omega pi0 and psi(2S) -> pi+ pi- in e+e- experiments are examined. It is found that the non-resonance virtual photon annihilation gives large contributions to the observed cross sections of these two…
We employ a dispersion relation that allows to recover the phase of the electromagnetic form factor of the pion from its absolute value above threshold. Compared to alternative approaches building on the phase, this approach builds on…
We improve the description of pion-photon interactions in the radiative return process $e^+e^-\to \pi^+\pi^-\gamma$ at the next-to-leading order by including the pion form factor in the Feynman rules. We present a general calculation of the…
We discuss the time dependent interferences between $K_L$ and $K_S$ in the decays in $3\pi$ and $\pi\pi\gamma$, to be studied at interferometry machines such as the $\phi$-factory and LEAR. We emphasize the possibilities and the advantages…
We present a unified method for analysing form factors in B -> pi l nu-bar_l and B -> K* gamma decays. The analysis provides consistency checks on the q^2 and 1/M extrapolations necessary to obtain the physical decay rates. For the first…
We argue that there could be large, SU(3) violating resonance contributions to D -> K pi decays which would affect the extraction of the D0-anti-D0 mixing parameters from experiment. Such contributions can induce a large strong phase in the…
The activation gap $\Delta$ of the fractional quantum Hall states at constant fillings $\nu =2/3$ and 2/5 has been measured as a function of the perpendicular magnetic field $B$. A linear dependence of $\Delta$ on $B$ is observed while…
The pion electromagnetic form factor is calculated at lower and higher momentum transfer in order to explore constituent quark models and the differences among those models. In particular, the light-front constituent quark model is utilized…
Usually, B->pi+pi- decays are expressed in terms of weak amplitudes explicitly dependent on the CKM weak phase alpha or gamma. In this letter, we show that the weak amplitudes can be rewritten such that a manifest dependence on beta emerges…
We investigate the pion and kaon (pi^+, K^+, K^0) electromagnetic form factors in the space-like region: Q^2 ~< 1 GeV, based on the gauged low-energy effective chiral action from the instanton vacuum in the large N_c limit. Explicit flavor…
