We present a model for the decay $D^+\to K^-\pi^+\pi^+$. The weak interaction part of this reaction is described using the effective weak Hamiltonian in the factorisation approach. Hadronic final state interactions are taken into account…
We investigate the scalar K pi form factor at low energies by the method of unitarity bounds adapted so as to include information on the phase and modulus along the elastic region of the unitarity cut. Using at input the values of the form…
We present a complete analysis of K -> 3 pi gamma decays to O(p^4) in the low-energy expansion of the Standard Model. We employ the notion of "generalized bremsstrahlung" to take full advantage of experimental information on the…
When employing mechanistic models to study biological phenomena, practical parameter identifiability is important for making accurate predictions across wide range of unseen scenarios, as well as for understanding the underlying mechanisms.…
Many statistical problems in causal inference involve a probability distribution other than the one from which data are actually observed; as an additional complication, the object of interest is often a marginal quantity of this other…
We give a pedagogical discussion of the physics underlying dispersion relation-derived parameterizations of form factors describing B -> pi l nu and B -> D l nu. Moments of the dispersion relations are shown to provide substantially tighter…
The $K\pi$ vector form factor, $F_+^{K\pi}$, used to reproduce the Belle spectrum of $\tauKpi$ decays is described by means of a three-times subtracted dispersion relation also incorporating constraints from $K_{l3}$ decays. The slope and…
The rare decay K_L -> pi pi e e that has recently been observed by KTeV is analyzed in chiral perturbation theory at the one-loop level.
Using chiral low energy theorems and elastic unitarity assumption, the $\tau\to\pi K \nu $ decay is investigated. The vector and scalar $\pi K$ form factors are calculated. It is found that the $\pi K$ spectrum is dominated by the $K^*$…
I review the basic idea of $k_{\perp}$-factorization and its relation to collinear factorization. Theoretical results in resummed perturbation theory are summarized and the example of the heavy-flavour structure functions is explicitly…
We propose a novel approach to describe the $D^+\to K^+K^-K^+$ decay amplitude, based on chiral effective Lagrangians, which can be used to extract information about $K\bar{K}$ scattering. Our trial function is an alternative to the widely…
A sample of $2.8 \times 10^4$ $K^{+} \to \pi^{+} \mu^{+} \mu^{-}$ candidates with negligible background was collected by the NA62 experiment at the CERN SPS in 2017--2018. The model-independent branching fraction is measured to be $(9.15…
It has been known for many years that there is a CP-conserving component for the decay mode K_L -> pi0 e+e- and that its magnitude can be obtained from a measurement of the amplitudes in the K_L -> pi0 gamma gamma decay mode. We point out…
We consider the scalar form factor in $\tau \to K\pi \nu_\tau$ decays. It receives contributions both from the scalar resonance $K_0^*(1430)$ and from the scalar projection of off-shell vector resonances. We construct a model for the…
The decays $\tau^-\to K^-\eta\nu_\tau$ and $K^-\eta^\prime\nu_\tau$ are studied in the context of Chiral Perturbation Theory supplemented with the explicit inclusion of resonances. For the required vector-form factors we have explored three…
Agreement between the experimental value $\Gamma (K_S\rightarrow \gamma\gamma)$ and the number predicted via a one-loop chiral perturbation theory calculation has been cited as a success for the latter. On the other hand the one-loop…
We report on a search of relations valid at order $p^6$ in Chiral Perturbation Theory. We have found relations between $\pi\pi$, $\pi K$ scattering, $K_{\ell4}$ decays, masses and decay constants and scalar and vector form factors. In this…
The $\phi \to K^+K^-,K^{0}_{L},K^{0}_{S},K^{0}\bar K^0$ decays are studied using the method of phenomenological chiral Lagrangians. Calculated values for partial widths for these decay channels are compared with available experimental data.
$K\pi$ scattering and $K_{\mu 4}$ decays are studied at leading order of improved chiral perturbation theory. It is shown that high precision $K_{\mu 4}$ experiments at, e.g., DA$\Phi$NE should allow for a direct measurement of the quark…
Our article is devoted to the study of the rare $B\to K^\ast \ell^+\ell^-$~decay where $\ell=e,\mu,\tau$. We compute the relevant form factors in the framework of the covariant quark model with infrared confinement in the full kinematical…
