The treatment of elastic final state interactions (FSI) under a symmetry group is presented. The proposed model is based on Watson's theorem, i.e. on symmetry properties of the S-matrix and on its unitarity. This theorem provides an easy…
The chromo-polarizability of a quarkonium state is a measure of the amplitude of the $E1$-$E1$ chromo-electric interaction of the quarkonium with soft gluon fields and can be measured in the heavy quarkonium decays. Based on the chiral…
We analyze the contribution of pionic final state interactions (FSI) in the weak decay of the hypertriton. Focusing on the $^3$He channel, we find a contribution of the pionic FSI of the order of $18\%$. Assuming a fixed value for the…

We study the final-state interaction (FSI) effects in charmless B_{u,d,s} to PP decays. We consider a FSI approach with both short- and long-distance contributions, where the former are from in-elastic channels and are contained in…
Rescattering of the struck quark in Deep Inelastic Scattering implies that measured parton distributions are not directly related to the Fock state probabilities of the target wave function. The production amplitudes acquire dynamical…

Contrary to wide-spread opinion that the final state interaction (FSI) enhances the amplitude <2\pi;I=0|K^0>, we argue that FSI does not increase the absolute value of this amplitude.
The effects of meson-exchange currents (MEC) are computed for the one-particle one-hole transverse response function for finite nuclei at high momentum transfers $q$ in the region of the quasielastic peak. A semi-relativistic shell model is…
We develop the Glauber theory description of final-state interaction (FSI) in quasielastic $A(e,e'p)$ scattering. The important new effect is an interaction between the two trajectories which enter the calculation of FSI-distorted one-body…

The final state interactions (FSI) model in which soft rescattering of low mass intermediate states dominates is suggested. It explains why the strong interaction phases are large in the $B_d\to\pi\pi$ channel and are considerably smaller…
