We study the spin correlations to probe time-reversal~(T) asymmetries in the decays of $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda V ~(V=\phi, \rho^0, \omega, K^{*0})$. The eigenstates of the T-odd operators are obtained along with definite angular momenta. We…

The main open problem in the physics of Lambda-hypernuclei is the lack of a sound theoretical interpretation of the large experimental values for the ratio G_n/G_p. To approach the problem, we have incorporated a Lambda N-> nN…

The standard model weak interactions can be described by four-fermion V-A operators at low energies. New physics at the TeV scale can, however, generate the other Lorentz structures. In this talk, we review the constraints on such…

New physics (NP) in charmless strangeness-changing $B$ and $B_s$ decays, which are dominated by the $b \to s$ penguin amplitudes, can either preserve isospin or change it by one unit. A general formalism is presented studying pairs of…
