We report measurements of the branching fractions and CP asymmetries for B^+- -> eta h^+- (h = K or pi) and the observation of the decay B^0 -> eta K^0 from the final data sample of 772x10^6 BBbar pairs collected with the Belle detector at…
We search for CP violation in a sample of 20000 Cabibbo-suppressed decays, $D^+\rightarrow K^+K^0_S\pi^+\pi^-$, and 30000 Cabibbo-favored decays, $D_s^+\rightarrow K^+K^0_S\pi^+\pi^-$. We use 520 $fb^{-1}$ of data recorded by the BaBar…
It has recently been shown that by measuring the transverse polarizations of the final particles in $\mu^- \to e^- e^+ e^-$, it is possible to extract information on the phases of the effective couplings leading to this decay. We examine…

I will here make some brief comments on the T- and CP- odd asymmetry observed by KTeV in the KL -> pi^+pi^-e^+e^- decay.
The CP asymmetry in $B^0\to K^+\pi^-$ is expected to be similar to that in $B^+\to K^+\pi^0$. The experimental data however show $\sim 5\sigma$ difference between the two, leading to the so called $\Delta {A}_{K\pi}$ puzzle. Employing sum…
Forward-backward correlations are explored within the two-component clan model of multiparticle production. It is found that existing data are well described, and, in hh collisions, that clans must be allowed to leak particles from one…
We study the polarized lepton pair forward-backward asymmetries in (B -> K^* l^+ l^-) decay using a general, model independent form of the effective Hamiltonian. We present the general expression for nine double-polarization…

We consider the process $e^+e^-\to\ti\chi^+_i\ti\chi^-_j$ at a linear collider with transverse $e^{\pm}$ beam polarization. We investigate the influence of the CP phases on azimuthal asymmetries in $e^+e^-\to\ti\chi^+_i\ti\chi^-_j$ with…
The mass eigen states $K_1(1270)$ and $K_1(1400)$ are mixture of the strange members of two axial-vector SU(3) octet, $^3P_1(K_1^A)$ and $^1P_1(K_1^B)$. Taking into account this mixture, the forward-backward asymmetry and branching ratio of…

We study the decay B -> K* l+ l- in the QCD factorization approach and propose a new integrated observable whose dependence on the form factors is almost negligible, consequently the non--perturbative error is significantly reduced and…
We discuss the orientation of e+e- -> q qbar g events in terms of the polar and azimuthal angles of the event plane w.r.t. the electron beam direction. We define an asymmetry of the azimuthal-angle distribution, which, along with the…
