The $e^+e^- \to \omega \pi^0 \to \pi^0 \pi^0 \gamma$ process was investigated in the SND experiment at the VEPP-2M collider. A narrow energy interval near the $\phi$-meson was scanned. The observed cross-section reveals, at the level of…

Determination of the top-quark Yukawa couplings in the process e+ e- -> t \bar{t} Z has been studied for the high luminosity option (\int L=500\fbinver) of a linear e+e- collider. Polarization of the electron beam has been considered. The…
The $Z\to \gamma \gamma$ and $Z\to gg$ decays are studied in the context of the renormalizable version of the Standard Model Extension. The $CPT$-odd $\bar{\psi}\gamma_5 \gamma^\mu b_\mu\psi$ bilinear interaction, which involves the…
$Z$ production at an $e^+e^-$ collider, associated with production of other particles, can be an accurate source of information of details of electroweak interactions, including possible interactions beyond the standard model. We discuss…
Existing predictions for the branching ratio for $\phi\rightarrow K\bar{K}\gamma$ {\it via} $\phi\rightarrow S\gamma$ (where $S$ denotes one of the scalar mesons $f_0$(975) and $a_0$(980)) vary by several orders of magnitude. Given the…

The rare kaon decay $K^+ \to \pi^+\ell^+\ell^-$ offers insights into Standard Model (SM) physics and beyond. Driven by vector form factor in the SM, it can also probe non-standard contributions. In this letter we study the scalar…
We study the reactions $K \rightarrow \pi \pi \nu \overline{\nu}$ within the minimal standard model. We use isospin symmetry to relate the matrix elements to the form factors measured in $K_{\ell 4}$. We argue that these modes are short…
The $ZZ\gamma$ triple neutral gauge couplings are absent in the Standard Model (SM) at the tree level. They receive no contributions from dimension-6 effective operators, but can arise from effective operators of dimension-8. We study the…

Scalar particles $S$ which are gauge singlets under the Standard Model are generic features of many models of fundamental physics, in particular as possible mediators to a hidden or dark sector. We show that the decay $S\to Zh$ provides a…
