The $pp\to pp\pi^0$ cross section near threshold is computed up to one-loop order including the initial and final state interactions using the hybrid heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory and the counting rule a la Weinberg. With the…
Using a quark model, we study the effect of charge symmetry breaking on the valence quark distributions of the nucleon. The effect due to quark mass differences and the Coulomb interaction of the electrically charged quarks is calculated…
We consider interactions of fermions with the domain wall bubbles produced during a first order phase transition. A new exact solution of the Dirac equations is obtained for a wall profile incorporating a position dependent CP violating…
We give the first full next-to-leading order analytical results in Chiral Perturbation Theory for the charged Kaon K \to 3 pi slope g and decay rates CP-violating asymmetries. We have included the dominant Final State Interactions at NLO…
Leading-order three-nucleon forces that violate isospin symmetry are calculated in Chiral Perturbation Theory. The effect of the charge-symmetry-breaking three-nucleon force is investigated in the trinucleon systems using Faddeev…
We compute the effects of anomalous gauge-boson couplings at high-energy hadron colliders using next-to-leading order $SU(2) \times SU(2)$ chiral perturbation theory. By comparing the yields from the universal $p^2$ terms with those arising…
A study is reported of the same- and opposite-sign charge-dependent azimuthal correlations with respect to the event plane in Au+Au collisions at 200 GeV. The charge multiplicity asymmetries between the up/down and left/right hemispheres…
Dynamical chiral symmetry breaking is a nonperturbative phenomenon that may be studied using QCD's gap equation. Model-independent results can be obtained with a nonperturbative and symmetry preserving truncation. The gap equation yields…
We review to what extent charge independence breaking (\emph{CIB}) in isospin related reactions of the type $NN\to d\pi$ can or could be seen in existing data. In doing this we present fits to global and threshold cross sections including…
Elastic nucleon scattering from the 3He and 3H mirror nuclei is examined as a test of charge symmetry violation. The differential cross-sections are calculated at 500 MeV using a microsopic, momentum-space optical potential including the…
The amplitude for the anomalous transitions gamma pi(+) -> pi(0) pi(+) is analyzed within Chiral Perturbation Theory including electromagnetic interactions. The presence of a t-channel one-photon exchange contribution induces sizeable e^2…
The anomalous dimuon charge asymmetry reported by the D0 Collaboration may be due to the tree-level exchange of some spin-0 particles that mediate CP violation in B_s-\bar{B}_s meson mixing. We show that for a range of couplings and masses,…
In the framework of heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory, we give thIn the framework of heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory, we give the chiral expansion for the $\pi N \to \pi \pi N$ threshold amplitudes $D_1$ and $D_2$ to quadratic…
We reconsider the recent observation by the D0 experiment of a sizable like-sign dimuon charge asymmetry, highlighting that it could be affected by CP-violating New Physics contributions not only in Bd- and Bs-meson mixings, but also in…
Charge independence and charge symmetry are approximate symmetries of nature, violated by the perturbing effects of the mass difference between up and down quarks and by electromagnetic interactions. The observations of the symmetry…
The D\O\ Collaboration has performed a new measurement of the anomalous like-sign dimuon charge asymmetry with 9 fb$^{-1}$ of $p \bar{p}$ collisions. In these proceedings I present a short overview of the measurement that complements the…
The process of secondary baryon production in pi(+-)p collisions at high energies in the central and forward fragmentation regions is considered in the framework of the Quark-Gluon String Model. The contribution of the string-junction…
The D0 Collaboration has published three measurements of the CP-violating like-sign dimuon charge asymmetry in p-pbar collisions at the Fermilab Tevatron collider. These measurements are significantly different from the standard model…
We investigate three models for the charge symmetry breaking (CSB) of the nucleon-nucleon ($NN$) interaction (based upon $\rho$-$\omega$ mixing, nucleon mass splitting, and phenomenology) that all reproduce the empirical value for the CSB…
We measure the inclusive single muon charge asymmetry and the like-sign dimuon charge asymmetry in $p \bar{p}$ collisions using the full data set of 10.4 fb$^{-1}$ collected with the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron. The standard model…
