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…

We discuss various models and Chiral Perturbation Theory results for the $K_{l4}$ form factors $F$ and $G$. We check in how much a simple parametrization with a few parameters can be used to extract information from experiment.

The decay K_L -> pi0 gamma e+ e- occurs at a it higher rate than the nonradiative process K_L -> pi0 e+ e-, and hence can be a background to CP violation studies using the latter reaction. It also has an interest in its own right in the…

We report the first observation of a manifestly CP violating effect in the K(L)->pi+pi-e+e- decay mode. A large asymmetry was observed in the distribution of these decays in the CP-odd and T-odd angle phi between the decay planes of the…

The decays $K^{+} \rightarrow \pi^{+} e^{+} e^{-}$, $K_{S} \rightarrow \pi^{0} e^{+} e^{-}$ and $K_{L} \rightarrow \pi^{0} e^{+} e^{-}$ are reinvestigated within the framework of chiral perturbation theory. The counterterms induced by…

We present a calculation of the low energy constants describing the real and imaginary parts of the $K \to \pi \pi$ decay amplitudes $A_0$ and $A_2$. Leading and next leading order chiral perturbation theory is used and its applicability…

In this talk, we present our recent work on the $K\ra\pi \bar{l} l$ decays in a combined framework of chiral perturbation theory and Large--$N_c$ QCD under the dominance of a minimal narrow resonance structure. The proposed description…

We calculate the $O(p^6)$ corrections to the anomalous form factors appearing in $\pi^+$, $K^+ \to e^+ \nu \gamma,\ \mu^+\nu\gamma$ and $K_{l4}$ decays in Chiral Perturbation Theory. The relevant dimension $6$ terms of the lagrangian are…

The newly observed $\bar B^0 \to \bar K^0\pi^0$ mode is quite sizable while $\pi^-\pi^+$ is rather small. Data also hint at $\pi^-\pi^0 \gtrsim \pi^-\pi^+$. Though consistent with zero, central values of CP violating asymmetries in…

The phases of terms of amplitude that arise from the $\pi\pi$ interaction are obtained by using a simple realistic model of $\pi\pi$ interaction via virtual $\rho$-meson, instead of the ChPT. It is shown that the standard ChPT approach…

I review the theoretical basis of the prediction that the decay K_L -> pi+ pi- e+ e- should show a large CP- and T-violation, a prediction now confirmed by the KTeV experiment. The genesis of the effect lies in a large violation of CP- and…
