We compute the electromagnetic corrections to neutron beta decay using a low-energy hadronic effective field theory. We identify and compute new radiative corrections arising from virtual pions that were missed in previous studies. The…
We find that, in the local V-A theory, the radiative corrections to pion beta-decay involving the weak vector current, when evaluated in the current algebra (CA) formulation in which quarks are the fundamental underlying fields, show a…
Pion beta decay, $\pi^+\to \pi^0 e^+\nu(\gamma)$, provides a theoretically clean $\pm 0.3\%$ determination of the CKM matrix element $V_{\text{ud}}$. That value falls short of super-allowed nuclear beta decays where an order of magnitude…
CKM matrix is unitary by construction in the standard model(SM). The recent analyses on the first row of CKM matrix show $ \approx 3\sigma$ tension with unitarity. Nonperturbative calculations of the radiative corrections can reduce the…
Pionic beta decay \pi^+ to \pi^0 e^+ \nu_e is analyzed in chiral perturbation theory with virtual photons and leptons. All electromagnetic corrections up to order e^2 p^2 are taken into account. Theoretical results are confronted with…
In this talk I briefly review the precision test of the first row CKM unitarity, focusing mainly on $V_{ud}$ and $V_{us}$ extracted from pion, kaon, neutron and superallowed nuclear beta decays. I will discuss the current status of several…
We investigate the contributions of the hadronic structure of the neutron to radiative $O(\alpha E_e/m_N)$ corrections (or the inner $O(\alpha E_e/m_N)$ RC) to the neutron beta decay, where $\alpha$, $E_e$ and $m_N$ are the fine-structure…
One of the sensitive probes of physics beyond the standard model is the test of the unitarity of the Cabbibo-Kobyashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix. Current analysis of the first row is based on $|V_{ud}|$ from fourteen superallowed $0^+ \to 0^+$…
Pion $\beta$ decay, $\pi^+ \to\pi^0 e^+ \nu_e$, offers a pristine way to measure the CKM matrix element $V_{ud}$ in a purely mesonic system, with excellent control over the hadronic matrix elements. We review the physics goals and current…
The value of the $V_{ud}$ matrix element of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix can be derived from nuclear superallowed beta decays, neutron decay, and pion beta decay. We survey current world data for all three. Today, the most…
The consistent matching of short-distance contributions and hadronic matrix elements is crucial for precise predictions of weak processes involving hadrons. In this Letter, we address this point for charged-current processes involving two…
The pion beta decay pi^+ -> pi^0 e^+ nu proceeds through pure weak vector hadronic currents and, therefore, the theoretical prediction for it is more reliable than for the processes with axial-vector current contribution. For example,…
We review some recent progress in the theory of electroweak radiative corrections in semileptonic decay processes. The resurrection of the so-called Sirlin's representation based on current algebra relations permits a clear separation…
We study the radiative pion decay of $\pi ^{+} \to e^{+}\nu_{e}\gamma$ in the chiral perturbation theory (ChPT) and light front quark model (LFQM). The vector and axial-vector hadronic form factors ($F_{V,A}$) for the $\pi\to\gamma$…
We propose a model-independent parametrization for the one-pion-to-vacuum matrix elements of the vector and axial vector hadronic currents in the presence of an external uniform magnetic field. It is shown that, in general, these hadronic…
The value of the V_{ud} matrix element of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix can be derived from nuclear superallowed beta decays, neutron decay, and pion beta decay. We survey current world data for all three. Today, the most…
A new method for computing hadronic effects on electroweak radiative corrections to low-energy weak interaction semileptonic processes is described. It employs high order perturbative QCD results originally derived for the Bjorken sum rule…
We study radiative corrections to low-energy charged-current processes involving nucleons, such as neutron beta decay and (anti)neutrino-nucleon scattering within a top-down effective-field-theory approach. We first match the Standard Model…
We describe two recent developments of the radiative correction theory in semileptonic beta decays. For neutron, a novel dispersive analysis of the $\gamma W$-box diagram making use of neutrino scattering data leads to an improved precision…
We analyze the prospective impact of supersymmetric radiative corrections on tests of charged current universality involving light quarks and leptons. Working within the R-parity conserving Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model, we compute…
