A brief overview of the recent measurements of the branching ratio of the rare $K_L^0 \to \mu^+ \mu^-$ decay in the context of their agreement with the Standard Model (SM) is given. It is shown that KEK result well correlates with the SM…
We analyse the rare kaon decays $K_S \to \gamma\gamma$ and $K_S \to \gamma\ell^+\ell^-$ $(\ell = e \mbox{ or } \mu)$ in a dispersive framework in which the weak Hamiltonian carries momentum. Our analysis extends predictions from lowest…
We analyze the dominant decay mechanisms in the radiative decays D -> V gamma, D -> P(V) l+ l-, D -> gamma gamma, D -> l+ l- gamma, and we discuss possible chances to observe the effects of new physics in these decays. Then we comment on…

The present status of Kaon physics is summarized from a theory point of view. Focus is laid on $\Delta S=2$, $\Delta S=1$ as well as on rare Kaon decays, where progress has been made for instance in the case of $\varepsilon_K$ and $K_S\to…
We review the recent measurements of the rare pion decays: Pi+ -> Pi0 e+ Nu [pion beta, Pi_(e3), or Pi_beta decay], radiative decay Pi+ -> e+ Nu Gamma [Pi_(e2Gamma) or RPD], and Pi+ -> e+ Nu [Pi_(e2)] decay, as well as the radiative muon…

I discuss recent developments on non-leptonic and radiative kaon decays mainly related to direct CP-violation within the combined ChPT and 1/N_c expansion approaches. In particular, I review the status of K -> pi pi, epsilon_K', direct…

Rare kaon decays are an important testing ground of the electroweak flavor theory: They can provide new signals of CP-violating phenomena. The interplay of long-distance QCD effects in strangeness-changing transitions can be analyzed with…

The rare kaon decays K_L -> pi^0 nu {bar nu}, K^+ -> pi^+ nu {bar nu}, K_L -> pi^0 e^+ e^- and K_L -> pi^0 mu^+ mu^- are theoretically very clean and, being strongly CKM suppressed, highly sensitive to New Physics (NP). Recent Flavour…
