Low energy $\pi^+$ emission in hypernuclear weak decays is studied in the soft pion limit. It is found that the $\pi^+$ decay amplitude is dominated by the $\Delta I=3/2$ part of nonmesonic weak decays according to the soft pion theorem.…

We study inclusive di-pion decays using a sample of 108 x 10^6 Upsilon(3S) events recorded with the BABAR detector. We search for the decay mode Upsilon(3S) --> pi+ pi- h_b(1P) and find no evidence for the bottomonium spin-singlet state…

We review the physics of purely leptonic decays of $\pi^\pm$, $K^\pm$, $D^{\pm}$, $D_s^\pm$, and $B^\pm$ pseudoscalar mesons. The measured decay rates are related to the product of the relevant weak-interaction-based CKM matrix element of…
