Non-leptonic hyperon weak decays are investigated in the SU(3) Skyrme model. We use a collective coordinate scheme, following the approach in which the symmetry breaking terms in the strong effective action are diagonalized exactly. To…
Hyperon non-leptonic weak decay amplitudes are studied in the chiral perturbation theory. We employ the low energy effective weak Hamiltonian which contains the perturbative QCD correction. To include the non-perturbative QCD effect, quark…

Within the resonance chiral theory, we have studied the process of a tau lepton decaying into a vector resonance plus a pseudo-Goldstone meson and a tau neutrino. Two kinds of processes are discussed: (a) tau- --> (rho pi-,omega pi-, phi…
We analyse the semileptonic decay D+ -> K- pi+ l+ nu(l) using an effective Lagrangian developed previously to describe the decays D -> P l nu(l) and D -> V l nu(l). Light vector mesons are included in the model which combines the heavy…
This work is devoted to investigating the $1/2\to3/2$ weak decays of singly heavy baryons. Due to the orthogonality between the spin wavefunctions of antitriplet baryons and spin-3/2 baryons, the weak decay amplitude for such processes…
Exclusive semi-leptonic decays of the tau lepton offer a clean probe to study the hadronization of QCD currents in its non-perturbative regime and learn about resonance dynamics, which drives strong interactions in these processes. In this…
Nonleptonic $\Omega^{-}$ decay branching ratios are estimated by means of the QCD enhanced effective weak Hamiltonian supplemented by the SU(3) Skyrme model used to estimate the nonperturbative matrix elements. The model has only one free…
In this paper we study two kinds of tau decays: (a) tau- --> (rho pi-,omega pi-, phi pi-, K*0 K-) nu(tau), which belong to Delta S=0 processes and (b) Delta S = 1 processes, like tau- --> (rho K-, omega K-, phi K-, \bar{K*0} pi-) nu(tau),…
Strong isospin-breaking (IB) effects in CP-even and CP-odd K-->pi pi decays are computed to next-to-leading order (NLO) in the chiral expansion. The impact of these corrections on the magnitude of the Delta I=1/2 Rule and on the size of the…
The CP conserved non leptonic $K\to \pi \pi \pi$ decays are discussed within the chiral quark model, including chiral perturbation theory corrections. All amplitudes are parameterized in terms of quark and gluon condensate and the…
We report on the progress of our ongoing project to quantify the role of the charm quark in the non-leptonic decay of a kaon into two pions. The effect of its associated mass scale in the dynamics underlying the \Delta I = 1/2 rule can be…
We carry out a theoretical and Monte Carlo study on the $J/\psi$ decays into $\omega\pi\pi$ and $K\bar{K}\pi$ through intermediate subthreshold $\rho$ meson by using SU(3)-symmetric Lagrangian approach. It is found that the subthreshold…
The nonleptonic decay $\Xi^0_c \to \Lambda^+_c \pi^-$ with $\Delta C=0$ is systematically studied in the framework of the covariant confined quark model with accounting for both short and long distance effects. The short distance effects…
The role of higher meson resonances with spin 1 and 2 is investigated quantitatively in the decay processes of $\rho \to \pi^0\pi^0 \gamma$ and $\omega \to \pi^0 \pi^0 \gamma$. Among the higher resonances, we find that the $f_2(1270)$…
We consider two-body and quasi-two-body decays of the type $f_1 \to f_2 B$, where $f_1$ and $f_2$ are spin-1/2 fermions and $B$ a spin-0 or spin-1 boson. After recalling the non-covariant formalism for decay amplitudes, we derive the…
The weak decays of hyperons and hypernuclei are studied from the chiral symmetry viewpoint. The soft pion relations are useful in understanding the isospin properties of the weak hyperon decays. Recent development on the short-range part of…
Heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory is briefly reviewed, paying particular attention to the role of the spin 3/2 delta resonances. The concept of resonance saturation for the baryonic sector is critically discussed. Starting from a…

Non-leptonic kaon decays are often described through an effective chiral weak Hamiltonian, whose couplings ("low-energy constants") encode all non-perturbative QCD physics. It has recently been suggested that these low-energy constants…
