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…
Incoherent $\eta$-photoproduction on the deuteron is studied for photon energies from threshold up to 720 MeV. The elementary $\gamma N \to \eta N$ amplitude is constructed in the frame of a conventional isobar model. Effects of final state…
Anomalies in recent LHCb, Belle and Babar measurements of $R_{D^{(*)}}$, and $R_{K^{(*)}}$ in $B$ decays may indicate the new physics beyond the Standard Model (SM). The leptoquarks ($LQ$) that couple to the $3^{\mathrm{rd}}$ generation…
We compute the last missing piece of the two-loop ${\cal O}(\alpha \alpha_s)$ corrections to $\gamma t \bar{t}$ vertex at the $t \bar{t}$ threshold due to the exchange of a $W$ boson and a gluon. This contribution constitutes a building…
Possibilities are discussed for determining the top quark mass $m_t$ from observations on the decay processes for top-antitop pairs produced in antiproton-proton collisions, assuming that the $t \to bW^+$ decay channel is dominant and much…
The effects of the final state interaction phenomenon known as colour reconnection are investigated at centre-of-mass energies in the range sqrt(s) ~ 189-209 GeV using the OPAL detector at LEP. Colour reconnection is expected to affect…
The energy spectrum of the lepton(s) in e^+e^- --> tt-bar --> l^{+-} ...../l^+l^-..... at next linear colliders (NLC) is studied for arbitrary longitudinal beam polarizations as a possible test of new physics in top-quark couplings. The…
I discuss some recent results on the systematic behavior of final state rescattering which makes use of the limit of a heavy B meson. The results suggest that soft final state interactions do not disappear in the large $m_B$ limit. Soft and…
We consider top-antitop quark $(t{\bar t})$ production at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) with subsequent decays into dileptonic final states. We use and investigate a set of leptonic angular correlations and distributions with which all…
The final state interactions (FSI) in Delta S=-1, Delta C=\pm 1, decays of B-meson are discussed. The rescattering corrections are found to be of order of 15-20%. The strong interaction phase shifts are estimated and their effects on…
This paper is an experimental review of the study of processes with a single top quark at the LHC. The pioneering times are over, and this is now a sector of "precision physics" at colliders. Angular distributions of the decay products of…
The final state interactions of pions in decays $K^\pm\to\pi^\pm\pi^0\pi^0$ are considered using the methods of quantum mechanics. We show how to incorporate the electromagnetic effects in the amplitudes of these decays and to work out the…
We present a computation of QCD next-to-leading order corrections to the top production and decay process at linear colliders. The top quarks are allowed to be off-shell and the production and decay subprocesses are treated together, thus…
We calculate the ${\cal O}(\alpha_s)$ radiative corrections to the spin dependent differential decay rates of the process $t\rightarrow b+W^+$. These are needed to study the angular distribution of the energy of hadrons produced in…
The LHCb Collaboration has recently reported the first observation of the decay $\bar B_s^0\to \Lambda_c^+\bar\Lambda_c^-$, along with measurements of the branching fractions for both $\bar B^0\to \Lambda_c^+\bar\Lambda_c^-$ and $\bar…
We present a quantitative study on sensitivities to the top-decay anomalous couplings, taking into account realistic experimental conditions expected at Tevatron and LHC. A double angular distribution of W and charged lepton in the top…

The cross section of top quark pair production is measured in the $\mathrm{t\bar{t}}$ $\to$ $(\ell\nu_{\ell})(\tau_\mathrm{h}\nu_{\tau})\mathrm{b\bar{b}}$ final state, where $\tau_\mathrm{h}$ refers to the hadronic decays of the $\tau$…
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…
