Observables in the $D^0-\bar{D}^0$ mixing can be theoretically analyzed by the operator product expansion (OPE), in which $1/m_c$ is regarded as an expansion parameter. Since the contributions of four-quark operators are strongly suppressed…

The D^0-D^0(bar) mixing is analyzed in a weak gauged U(4)_L x U(4)_R chiral lagrangian model where the electroweak interaction is introduced as a gauge theory over the meson degrees of freedom. This model allows a particular realization of…

We study the Standard Model prediction for the mass difference between the two neutral D meson mass eigenstates, $\Delta m$. We derive a dispersion relation based on heavy quark effective theory that relates $\Delta m$ to an integral of the…

The decays D^0 -> gamma gamma, $mu^+ mu^- are highly suppressed in the Standard Model (SM) with the lion's share of the rate coming from long distance dynamics; D^0 -> mu^+ mu^- is driven predominantly by D^0 -> gamma gamma -> mu^+ mu^-.…

We provide a comprehensive, up-to-date analysis of possible New Physics contributions to the mass difference $\Delta M_D$ in $D^0$-${\bar D}^0$ mixing. We consider the most general low energy effective Hamiltonian and include leading order…

We study local quark-hadron duality and its violation for the $D^0-\bar{D}^0$, $B^0_d-\bar{B}^0_d$ and $B^0_s-\bar{B}^0_s$ mixings in the 't Hooft model, offering a laboratory to test QCD in two-dimensional spacetime together with the…

Mixing in the D0 system may provide a sensitive probe for new physics beyond the Standard Model (SM) but has so far eluded experimental observation. The SM predictions are typically small (< 10^{-3}) for the mixing parameters x, y which, in…

Theoretical predictions for the $D^0\overline{D^0}$ mixing parameters fall significantly short of experimental measurements, with discrepancies spanning several orders of magnitude. This gap is mainly due to the Glashow-Iliopoulos-Maiani…

We study the contributions of physics beyond the standard model to the short-distance s->d gamma transition in Omega^- -> Cascade^- gamma decay. We explore the possibility that the new interactions remove the chirality suppression which…

The main challenge in the Standard Model calculation of the mass and width difference in $D^0 - \bar D^0$ mixing is to estimate the size of SU(3) breaking. We prove that mixing occurs in the Standard Model only at second order in SU(3)…

We use local quark-hadron duality to estimate the purely nonperturbative soft contribution to the $\gamma^*p\to \Delta$ form factors. Our results are in agreement with existing experimental data. We predict that the ratio…

We present an elementary introduction to the problem of quark-hadron duality and its practical limitations, in particular as it concerns local duality violation in inclusive B meson decays. We show that the accurate definition of duality…

A study of hadron pair production mechanism is motivated by the recent observed decays $\bar B^0\to D^{(*)+}K^-K^0$. One novel phenomenon is threshold enhancement of the kaon pair production. We show that these decays in the heavy quark…

Various light-quark channel current-current correlators are subjected to the concept of a non-perturbative component of coarse graining in operator product expansions introduced in a parallel work. This procedure allows for low-energy…

The Standard Model contribution to D0-anti-D0 mixing is dominated by the contributions of light s and d quarks. Neglecting the tiny effects due to b quark, both mass and lifetime differences vanish in the limit of SU(3) symmetry. Thus, the…

We present main results of the investigation of the rare decay mode D^0 -->gamma gamma, in which the long distance contributions are expected to be dominant. Using the Heavy Quark Chiral Lagrangian we have considered the anomaly…

The various decay modes of the type $B \to \gamma D^* $ are dynamically different. In general there are factorizable contributions, and there are pole diagrams and pseudoscalar exchange contributions at meson level. The purpose of this…

Recent results relevant for the B-physics phenomenology, obtained from lattice QCD simulations by the APE Collaboration, are reviewed. This includes the B0-B0bar mixing amplitude, B-> pi semileptonic decay and the relative width difference…

We re-visit the problem of non-perturbative contribution to the mass difference in D0-D0bar mixing within the Standard Model (SM). There are two known approaches to take this contribution into account. In the long long-distance approach one…

We present a calculation of the rare decay mode D^0 -> gamma gamma, in which the long distance contributions are expected to be dominant. Using the Heavy Quark Chiral Perturbation Theory Lagrangian with a strong g coupling as recently…
