The experimental determination of low energy pi K scattering phase shifts would assist in determining scattering lengths as well as low energy constants of chiral perturbation theory for which sum rules have been constructed. The FOCUS…
For direct CP-violation in $K\to\pi\pi$ decays, the usual isospin-breaking effects at the percent level are amplified by the dynamics behind the $\Delta I=1/2$ rule and conventionally encoded in $\Omega_{\rm IB}$ parameters. The updated…
An extended $U(3)_L\bigotimes U(3)_R$ chiral theory which includes pseudoscalar and vector meson nonets as dynamic degrees of freedom is presented. We combine a hidden symmetry approach with a general procedure of including the $\eta'$…
We report the first observation of the decay $D_s^+ \to \pi^+\pi^0\pi^0\eta$ in a data set corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 7.33 fb$^{-1}$, collected in $e^+e^-$ collisions by the BESIII detector at center-of-mass energies…
Based on our previous work about the role of $a_0(1710)$ in the $D_s^+\to\pi^+K_S^0K_S^0$ decay [Phy. Rev. D 105, 116010 (2022)], we perform a further theoretical study of $a_0(1710)^+$ in the process $D^+_s \to \pi^0 a_0(1710)^+ \to \pi^0…
In e+e- collisions recorded using the CLEO II.V detector we have studied the Cabibbo suppressed decay of D0 -> pi+pi-pi0 with the initial flavor of the D0 tagged by the decay D*+ -> D0pi+. We use the Dalitz-plot analysis technique to…
In this work, we perform a detailed study of the $\tau^-\to\pi^-\pi^0\gamma\nu$ decay process within the resonance chiral theory. We pay special attention to the triple-product asymmetry in the $\tau^-\to\pi^-\pi^0\gamma\nu$ process. The…
The contribution of a $K^*(1430)$ $0^+$ resonance to $D^0\to K^-\pi^+$ is calculated by applying the soft pion theorem to $D^+ \to K^* \pi^+$, and is found to be about 30% of the measured amplitude and to be larger than the $\Delta I=3/2$…
Using non relativistic effective Lagrangian techniques, we analyze the hadronic decay of the pi+pi- atom and the strong energy-level shift of pionic hydrogen in the ground state. We derive general formulae for the width and level shift,…
We make a thermal analysis of the light scalar susceptibilities using SU(3)-Chiral Perturbation Theory to one loop taking into account the QCD source of isospin breaking (IB), i.e corrections coming from $m_u\neq m_d$. The value of the…
We report on analyses of $B^-$ mesons decaying into $D^{*+}\pi^-\pi^-$ and $D^+\pi^-\pi^-$ final states using 89 million $B^-$ decays collected by the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy $B$ Factory. Preliminary measurements are…
The branching fraction of the decay $\eta' \to \pi\rho$ is calculated in the chiral quark NJL model. The decay exists due to the mass difference between $u$- and $d$-quarks leading to $\pi^{0}-\eta^{'}$ mixing. Two different approaches are…
The decay $\eta \to \pi^0 \gamma \gamma$ is discussed in the framework of SU(3) chiral perturbation theory. The process is dominated by the ${\cal{O}}(p^6)$ in the momentum expansion where tree-level amplitudes from the effective Lagrangian…
We consider various contributions to the nonresonant decay $B^\pm\rightarrow \pi^+\pi^-\pi^\pm$, both of the long-distance and short-distance types with the former providing for most of the branching ratio, predicted to be…
We study the axion and axion-like particle production from the $\eta\to\pi\pi a$ decay within the $SU(3)$ chiral perturbation theory up to the one-loop level. The conventional $SU(3)$ chiral low energy constants are found to be able to…
We use chiral perturbation theory (ChPT) to calculate the $\pi^- d$ scattering length with an accuracy of a few percent, including isospin-violating corrections both in the two- and three-body sector. In particular, we provide the technical…
Using isospin relations, we predict the Standard-Model correlation between S_{pi^0 K_S}=(sin 2beta)_{pi^0 K_S} and A_{pi^0 K_S}, the mixing-induced and direct CP asymmetries of B^0-> pi^0 K_S. The calculation uses flavour SU(3) only to fix…
We use the QCD sum rules to analize the hadronic decay $D_{sJ}^{+}(2317)\to D_s^+\pi^0$, in the hypotesis that the $D_{sJ}^{+}(2317)$ can be identified as a four-quark state. We use a diquak-antidiquark current and work to the order of…
We study the decays $K\to\pi\pi$ in one-loop two-flavour Chiral Perturbation Theory. We provide arguments why the calculation of the coefficient of the pionic chiral logarithm $\logm = M^2\log M^2$ is unique and then perform the…
