Over the last few years lattice techniques have been used to investigate candidate theories of new physics beyond the Standard Model. This review gives a survey of results from these studies. Most of these investigations have been of…
We present for the first time a master formula for $\varepsilon'/\varepsilon$, the ratio probing direct CP violation in $K \to \pi\pi$ decays, valid in any theory beyond the Standard Model (BSM). The formula makes use of hadronic matrix…
After discussing alternative scenarios for the origins of the electroweak symmetry breaking, I briefly review the experimental status of the Standard Model. I explore further both the hints for, and constraints on, supposing that that a…
A summary is given of the present status of the theory and experiment of the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon. A difference between predicted and measured values is an indication of physics beyond the Standard Model. A new experimental…
We present a lattice calculation of the electromagnetic (EM) effects on the masses of light pseudoscalar mesons. The simulations employ 2+1 dynamical flavors of asqtad QCD quarks, and quenched photons. Lattice spacings vary from $\approx…
We have gained enough statistical precision to distinguish signal from noise in matrix elements of all operators relevant for the Delta I=1/2 rule in kaon decays and for the direct CP violation parameter epsilon-prime. We confirm…
The quantities $\epsilon_K^\prime$ and $\epsilon_K$ measure the amount of direct and indirect CP violation in $K\to \pi\pi$ decays, respectively. Using the recent lattice results from the RBC and UKQCD Collaborations and a new compact…
The simplest interpretation of the global success of the Standard Model is that new physics decouples well above the electroweak scale. Supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model offers the possibility of light chargino and the…
We present an improved Standard-Model (SM) prediction for the dilepton decay of the neutral pion. The loop amplitude is determined by the pion transition form factor for $\pi^0\to\gamma^*\gamma^*$, for which we employ a dispersive…
Recently, the exciting new Fermilab (FNAL) Muon g-2 measurement impressively confirmed the final Brookhaven (BNL) result from 2004, and with a result four times more precise, has launched a new serious attack on the Standard Model (SM). On…
We review recent progress in calculating kaon spectrum, pseudoscalar meson decay constants, $B_K$, $\epsilon'/\epsilon$, $K\to \pi\pi$ matrix elements, kaon semileptonic form factors, and moments of kaon distribution amplitudes on the…
Two next generation muon $g-2$ experiments at Fermilab in the US and at J-PARC in Japan have been designed to reach a four times better precision from 0.54 ppm to 0.14 ppm and the challenge for the theory side is to keep up in precision as…
We confront the recent improved measurements of the D_{(s)} (semi) leptonic decays with lattice QCD (LQCD) with n_f=3 flavours and QCD spectral sum rules (QSSR) predictions. D\to\mu\nu_\mu leptonic width data compared with theoretical…
The $K\to\pi\pi$ system is analyzed in the chiral limit within the Standard Model. We discuss how to connect the short-distance running in the $|\Delta S|=1$ case to the matrix-elements calculated in a low-energy approximation in a…
The anomalous magnetic moment of the muon $a_\mu$ is one of the most accurate quantities in Particle Physics. The long-standing discrepancy of about $3.7$ standard deviations between the experimental value and the prediction of the Standard…
The implications of recent precision $Z$-pole, $W$ mass, and weak neutral current data for testing the standard electroweak model, constraining the $t$ quark and Higgs masses, \alsz, and grand unification are discussed. A fit to all data…
Recent calculations have pointed to a 2.8 $\sigma$ tension between data on $\epsilon^{\prime}_K / \epsilon_K$ and the standard-model (SM) prediction. Several new physics (NP) models can explain this discrepancy, and such NP models are…
I give a short presentation of the theoretical prediction of epsilon-prime/epsilon. Short distance and especially long distance aspects of the computation is discussed. I consentrate on the general framework and the chiral quark model…
We analyze the theoretical implications of the new KTeV measurement of direct CP-violation in K->pi pi decays. The result is found consistent with the Standard Model for low values of the strange quark mass m_s. If the hadronic parameters…
We present results for $\varepsilon_K$, the indirect CP violation parameter, calculated in the Standard Model using inputs from lattice QCD: the kaon bag parameter $\hat{B}_K$, and the CKM matrix element $V_{cb}$ from the axial current form…
