We discuss the recent literature on the treatment of final state interactions in K -> pi pi. Various approaches are compared and particular emphasis is given to the possibility of combining dispersive methods with lattice input. Recent…
The final state interaction (FSI) contribution to charged $D$ decay into $K\pi\pi$ is computed within a light-front framework, considering $S$-wave $K\pi$ interactions in $1/2$ and $3/2$ isospin states. The convergence of the rescattering…
The low-energy S-wave component of the decay $D^+ \to K^- \pi^+ \pi^+$ is studied by means of a chiral SU(3)XSU(3) effective theory. As far as the primary vertex is concerned, we allow for the possibility of either direct production of…
The decays $K \to \pi l^{+} l^{-}$, $K \to \pi \gamma \gamma $ and $K \to \pi \nu {\bar \nu}$ are investigated using the higher order terms of the chiral perturbation theory. The counterterms induced by strong, weak and electromagnetic…
A kaon decaying into three pions is an example of a weak process. However, since the quarks are confined into mesons, the strong interaction also plays an important part. The reaction is a low-energy one, meaning that it takes place in the…
The semileptonic $D_{l4}$ decay including $D\to K\pi l\nu$ and $D\to \pi\pi l\nu$ have been extensively studied. In these references, the form factors and differential decay rate are explicitly stated. However, we would like to stress that…
A short overview of recent progress in describing kaon and pion decays within Chiral Perturbation Theory is presented. Particular attention is devoted to the issues of final-state interactions and isospin breaking in $K \to 2 \pi$, as well…
We investigate the $D_{s}^{+} \rightarrow K^{+} K^{-} \pi^{+}$ decay theoretically with the final state interactions, which is based on the chiral unitary approach and takes into account the external and internal $W$-emission mechanisms at…
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…
The CP conserving amplitudes for the decays $K\to3\pi$ are calculated in Chiral Perturbation Theory at the next-to-leading order. We present the expressions in a compact form with single parameter functions only. These expressions are then…
The usual theoretical treatments of the near-threshold $pp \rightarrow pp\pi^0$ reaction are based on various phenomenological Lagrangians. In this work we examine the relationship between these approaches and a systematic chiral…
I discuss the effect of final state interactions on the determination of the CKM angle \gamma from B -> K + pi decays. Using a simple Regge-based model for rescattering processes, I argue that such effects could be substantial enough to…
We evaluate energy levels of the K-pi system in the K* channel in finite volume using chiral unitary theory. We use these energy levels to obtain K-pi phase shifts, and then obtain the K* mass and its decay width. We investigate their…
The present status of Chiral Perturbation Theory (ChPT) in the strong mesonic sector is discussed. A very short introduction to ChPT is followed by an overview of existing two-loop calculations and the determination of the…
Careful discussions are made on some points which are met in studying B decay final state interactions, taking the $B^0\to \pi^+ K^-$ process as an example. We point out that $\pi$--exchange rescatterings are not important, whereas for…
This talk gives a short summary of some work \cite{FGEdeR04} realized in collaboration with E. de Rafael and concerning $K\ra\pi \ell^+ \ell^-$ decays, in a combined framework of Chiral Perturbation Theory and Large--$N\_c$ QCD under the…
The significance of final-state interactions in B_d-->\pi\pi decays is phenomenologically demonstrated by taking elastic \pi\pi--\pi\pi and inelastic \pi\pi--D\bar{D} rescattering effects into consideration. We find that the present…
Corrections to $K\rightarrow\pi\pi\pi$ induced by vector and scalar meson exchange are investigated within chiral perturbation theory.
In this article, we study the final-state rescattering effects in the decays $B^0\to \chi_{c0}K^{*0}$ and $B^+ \to \chi_{c0}K^{*+}$, and observe the corrections are zero in the SU(3) limit, which is warranted by the heavy quark symmetry. It…
