We analyze production of soft neutrons ($E_n\le 10MeV$) in deep inelastic scattering and conclude that the recent E-665 data indicate strong suppression of the final state interactions in DIS at high energies. Hence we suggest that studies…
We propose to study factorization breaking effects in exclusive b decays where they are strongly enhanced over the factorizing contributions. This can be done by selecting final-state mesons with a small decay constant or with spin greater…
A coupled-channel analysis of BESIII data on radiative $J/\psi$ decays into $\pi\pi$, $K\bar K$, $\eta\eta$ and $\omega\phi$ has been performed. The partial-wave amplitude is constrained by a large number of further data. The analysis finds…
We have observed a Bose-Einstein Condensate in a dilute gas of $^4$He in the $2^3S_1$ metastable state. We find a critical temperature of $(4.7\pm0.5) \mu$K and a typical number of atoms at the threshold of $8\times10^6$. The maximum number…
The B_{s} --> \phi\psi decay is modeled through the inclusive b --> s\psi decay. Using the Vector Meson Dominance model, the amplitude for the chain process B_{s} --> \phi\psi --> \phi\gamma --> \gamma\gamma is estimated and it is found to…
New physics contributions to B_s-\bar{B}_s mixing can be parametrized by the size (r_s^2) and the phase (2\theta_s) of the total mixing amplitude relative to the Standard Model amplitude. The phase has so far been unconstrained. We first…
We consider B to PS decays where P stands for pseudoscalar and S for a heavy (~1500 MeV) scalar meson. We achieve agreement with available experimental data -- which includes a two orders of magnitude hierarchy -- assuming the scalars…
The first direct measurement of the relative phase between the strong and electromagnetic amplitudes for a $J/\psi$ decaying into a vector-pseudoscalar final state is performed using 26 energy points of $e^+e^-$ annihilation data between…
The color-suppressed \bar B^0-> D^{(*)0}\pi^0, D^{(*)0}\eta, D^0\omega decay modes have just been observed for the first time. The rates are all larger than expected, hinting at the presence of final state interactions. Considering \bar…
We review recent advances in the theory of strong-interaction effects and final-state interactions in hadronic weak decays of heavy mesons. In the heavy-quark limit, the amplitudes for most nonleptonic, two-body B decays can be calculated…
A number of $B$ meson decays may proceed only through participation of the spectator quark, whether through amplitudes proportional to $f_B/m_B$ or via rescattering from other less-suppressed amplitudes. An expected hierarchy of amplitudes…
The thermodynamics of the interacting system of relativistic particles and antiparticles in the presence of a Bose-Einstein condensate was investigated within the framework of the mean-field model. It is assumed that the total isospin…
We consider polynomial long-range Ising models in one dimension, with ferromagnetic pair interactions decaying with power $2-\alpha$ (for $0 \leq \alpha < 1$), and prepared with randomly chosen boundary conditions. We show that at low…
We study partial rate asymmetry in decays with single isospin final state. For K meson or hyperon decays, the partial rate asymmetries are always zero if the final states are single isospin states. In B decays the situation is dramatically…
Utilizing the approach recently proposed for the inclusive semi-leptonic decay rate on the lattice, we compute the differential decay rate of a $B_s$ meson for various kinematical channels. The results are compared with the contributions…
There exist many experimental indications that final-state interactions (FSIs) may play a prominent role not only in charmful B decays but also in charmless B ones. We examine the final-state rescattering effects on the hadronic B decay…
Hard-core final state interaction effects in the response function are investigated in the asymptotic limit of momentum transfer q->Infinity. A new treatment of the response is presented, which displays the relevant scattering contribution.…
The role of inelastic final state interactions in CP asymmetries is investigated in single isospin two-body hadronic decays of the B meson. We demonstrate that in a channel where the CP asymmetry vanishes in absence of inelastic final state…
