We calculate long distance contributions to $K\to\pi\nu\bar{\nu}\,,\ \pi\pi\nu\bar{\nu}$, and $\pi\pi\pi\nu\bar{\nu}$ modes within the framework of chiral perturbation theory. We find that these contributions to decay rates of $K\to…

We estimate the long distance (LD) contribution to the magnetic part of the $s \to d\gamma$ transition using the Vector Meson Dominance approximation $(V=\rho,\omega,\psi_i)$. We find that this contribution may be significantly larger than…
We investigate the mechanism of K+ -> pi+ l+ l- (l= e, mu) decays in which a virtual photon is emitted either from the incoming K+ or the outgoing pi+. We point out some inconsistencies with and between two previous calculations, discuss…
In this paper we consider the decay $D^+\to\pi^+\ell^+\ell^-$, addressing in particular the resonance contributions as well as the relatively large contributions from the weak annihilation diagrams. For the weak annihilation diagrams we…
We calculate the branching ratio of the non-resonant $B \to D^- \pi^+\pi^+\pi^- $ decay using a simple model based on the framework of the factorization approach. In naive factorization approach, there are only tow tree diagrams for this…
In this work, we study the resonance contributions to the decay $B^-\to K^+K^-\pi^-$, which is dominated by the scalar $f_0(980), K_0^*(1430)$, vector $\rho(1450), \phi(1020), K^*(892)$ and tensor $f_2(1270)$ resonances. The three-body…
The short-distance contribution due to the $c\to u\gamma$ penguin as well as long-distance contributions are considered in an analysis of $D\to V\gamma$ decays, the latter being dominant. The matrix elements for nine $D\to V\gamma$…

We analyse the long-distance contribution to $B\to X_s\ell^+\ell^-$ differential decay rate when the momentum dependence of $\psi$ and $\psi'$-$\gamma$ conversion strength is taken into account. The results indicate that the resonance to…
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…

A measurement of the phase difference between the short- and long-distance contributions to the $B^{+}\to K^{+}\mu^{+}\mu^{-}$ decay is performed by analysing the dimuon mass distribution. The analysis is based on $pp$ collision data…
Neutrinoless double beta decay, if detected, would prove that neutrinos are Majorana fermions and provide the direct evidence for lepton number violation. If such decay would exist in nature, then $\pi^-\pi^-\to ee$ and $\pi^-\to\pi^+ ee$…
