Chiral perturbation theory makes definitive predictions for the extrinsic behavior of hadrons in external electric and magnetic fields. Near the chiral limit, the electric and magnetic polarizabilities of pions, kaons, and nucleons are…
We introduce an effective chiral Lagrangian with a dilaton responsible for the trace anomaly in QCD. As the "dilaton limit" is taken, which drives a system to near chiral restoration density, a linear sigma model emerges from the highly…
We explain the difference between the measured decay widths of $b \to c \tau \nu$ processes and of $B\to K\nu\bar{\nu}$ and their values predicted in the Standard Model by introducing the right-handed interactions both to quarks and to…
The isovector time-reversal- and parity-violating pion-nucleon coupling $\bar{g}_{\pi}^{(1)}$ is uniquely sensitive to dimension six interactions between right-handed light quarks and the Standard Model Higgs doublet that naturally arises…
In addition to temperature and baryon chemical potential there are other parameters that matter in the real quark matter. One of them is isospin asymmetry which does exist in nature, for example, in the compact stars and in heavy ion…
We present a strategy for a lattice evaluation of the neutron electric dipole moment induced by the strong CP violating term of the QCD Lagrangian. Our strategy is based on the standard definition of the electric dipole moment, involving…
We theoretically investigate the role of chiral-transitions in the quantum friction force that acts on a two-level atom that moves with relative velocity v parallel to a planar metallic surface. We find that the friction force has a…
We review different definitions of the $\epsilon'$ parameter describing direct CP violation in neutral kaon decays, which was precisely measured in recent experiments, and point out the inconsistency of some of them due to a CPT constraint.…
We propose a model with the left-handed and right-handed continuous Abelian gauge symmetry; $U(1)_L\times U(1)_R$. Then three right-handed neutrinos are naturally required to achieve $U(1)_R$ anomaly cancellations, while several mirror…
Strong correlations between leptogenesis and low energy CP violating leptonic processes have been shown by us to exist in the minimal left-right symmetric model with spontaneous CP violation. In this note, we investigate the implications of…
The current theoretical status in the analysis and interpretation of low-mass dilepton measurements in (ultra-) relativistic heavy-ion experiments is reviewed. Special emphasis is put on potential signals of (partial) restoration of…
In lattice QCD it is possible, in principle, to determine the parameters in the effective chiral lagrangian (including weak interaction couplings) by performing numerical simulations in the $\epsilon$--regime, i.e. at quark masses where the…
We compute the collisional energy loss of an {energetic} massive fermion crossing a chiral plasma at finite temperature characterized by an imbalance between the populations of left-handed and right-handed fermions. We find a new…
The LHCb collaboration recently announced preliminary evidence for CP violation in D meson decays. We discuss this result in the context of the standard model (SM), as well as its extensions. In the absence of reliable methods to evaluate…
This work discusses reliability, possible obstacles and the future perspective of chiral extrapolation of lattice results. In the first part, chiral perturbation theory fits to lattice calculations of the nucleon mass are thoroughly…
The first lattice result from the RBC and UKQCD Collaborations and improved perturbative calculations of $\varepsilon^{\prime}_K / \varepsilon_K$ have implied that the Standard-Model (SM) expectation deviates from measured values at the…
Rare kaon decays are an important testing ground of the electroweak flavor theory: They can provide new signals of CP-violating phenomena. The interplay of long-distance QCD effects in strangeness-changing transitions can be analyzed with…
Since the standard model contribution is virtually absent, any observation of direct CP violation in the Cabibbo-favored charmed meson decays would be evidence of new physics. In this paper, we conduct a quantitative study on direct CP…
Left-right (LR) symmetric theories predict right-handed charged currents whose flavor structure encodes the realization of parity. While the right-handed quark mixing matrix closely tracks its left-handed counterpart, the leptonic sector…
We use one-loop chiral perturbation theory (ChPT) to compare lattice results for the K+ to pi+ pi0 decay amplitude with the experimental value. Three systematic effects: quenching, finite-volume effects, and the use of unphysical values of…
