We take up the point of view that Yukawa couplings can be either 0 or 1, and the mass patterns of fermions are generated purely from the structure of the Yukawa matrices. We utilize such neutrino as well as charged leptonic textures which…
The $K^+$ and $K^0$ meson mass difference induces the mixing of the $a^0_0(980)$ and $f_0(980)$ resonances, the amplitude of which, between the $K^+K^-$ and $K^0\bar K^0$ thresholds, is large in magnitude, of the order of $…
In this paper, the branching ratios and the direct CP-violating asymmetries for decays $\bar B^0\to f_0(980)\bar K^{*0}$ and $B^-\to f_0(980)K^{*-}$ by employing the perturbative QCD factorization approach are studied. In the two-quark…
The high-statistical KLOE data on the $\phi\to\pi^0\pi^0\gamma$ decay are described simultaneously with the data on $\pi\pi$ scattering and the $\pi\pi\to K\bar K$ reaction. The description is carried out taking into account the chiral…
We phenomenologically build a neutrino mass matrix obeying $\mu-\tau$ symmetry with only two parameters, Cabibbo angle $(\lambda)$ and a flavour twister parameter $(\eta)$. For vanishing $\eta$, the model assumes TBM mixing. When…
This is a brief overview of light scalar meson spectroscopy, addressing longstanding problems, recent developments and future perspectives. In particular, a new comprehensive data analysis is introduced which will help to unravel the…
The evidences for sigma(600) and kappa(900) observed in our analyses on the pi pi and K pi scattering phase shift data are described, briefly. The analysis have been performed by the interfering amplitude method, which satisfies the…
New high-statistics Belle data on the reaction \gamma\gamma\to\pi^0\eta are analyzed to clarify the two-photon production mechanisms and the nature of the a_0(980) meson. The obtained solution for the amplitude \gamma\gamma\to\pi^0\eta is…
In this work, we have investigated the process $D_s^+\to K^+ K^- \pi^+$, taking into account the contributions from the $S$-wave pseudoscalar-pseudoscalar interaction within the chiral unitary approach, and also the intermediate $\phi$…
We present a model of self-interacting dark matter based on QCD-like theories and inspired by the proximity of $a_0(980\pm 20)$ to the $K\bar{K}(990)$ threshold. Dark matter is comprised of dark pions which self-scatter via the $\sigma$…
In a previous work, we have reanalyzed the I=0 S-wave \pi\pi-scattering phase-shift through a new method of Interfering Breit-Wigner amplitudes, and have shown the existence of a light scalar, \sigma particle, accompanied by a negative…
The Standard Model (SM), when extended with a leptoquark (LQ) and right-handed neutrinos, can have interesting new implications for Higgs physics. We show that sterile neutrinos can induce a boost to the down-type quark Yukawa interactions…
The $\rho\rho$ scattering has been studied by two groups which both claimed a dynamical generated scalar meson, most likely to be $f_0(1370)$. Here we investigate the influence of coupled-channels of pseudoscalar mesons, i.e., $\pi\pi$ and…
We propose a seesaw scenario that possible corrections to the tribimaximal pattern of lepton mixing are due to the small phase splitting of the right-handed neutrino mass matrix. we show that the small deviations can be expressed…
On the basis of a simultaneous description of the isoscalar s-wave of $\pi\pi$ scattering (from the threshold up to 1.9 GeV) and of $\pi\pi\to K\bar{K}$ process (from the threshold to $\sim$ 1.4 GeV) in the model-independent approach, it is…
We argue that adding gauge-singlet real scalars to the Standard Model can both ameliorate the little hierarchy problem and provide a realistic source of Dark Matter. Masses of the scalars should be in the 1-3 TeV range, while the lowest…
We study the behaviour of a scalar field coupled to a noncommutative black hole which is described by a $\kappa$-cylinder Hopf algebra. We introduce a new class of realizations of this algebra which has a smooth limit as the deformation…
Large neutrino event numbers in future experiments measuring coherent elastic neutrino nucleus scattering allow precision measurements of standard and new physics. We analyze the current and prospective limits of a light scalar particle…
The most recent data on differential cross sections and photon beam asymmetries $\Sigma$ from the LEPS2/BGOegg Collaboration for the $\gamma p \to f_0(980) p$ reaction are analyzed within a tree-level effective Lagrangian approach. The…
In the case of three quark flavors, (pseudo)scalar diquarks transform as antiquarks under chiral transformations. We construct four spin-1/2 baryonic multiplets from left- and right-handed quarks as well as left- and right-handed diquarks.…
