The radiative decays of hyperons are studied in the framework of the bound state soliton model. Detailed predictions for the total decay widths and the E2/M1 ratios corresponding to decuplet--to--octet electromagnetic transitions are…
Recent results involving hadronic decays of charmed mesons and baryons are reviewed. Information relevant to decay mechanisms and to light quark scalar mesons is discussed.
We review recent experimental results on lifetimes and hadronic decays of hadrons that contain $c$ and $b$ quarks. The theoretical implications of these results are also considered. An understanding of hadronic decays of heavy quarks is…
The simple independent quark models have difficulties explaining simultaneously the totality of the known hyperon magnetic moments and hyperon semi-leptonic decay rates. We show that both the Goldstone boson loop contributions and the…
We recalculate the leading nonanalytic contributions to the amplitudes for hyperon nonleptonic decays in chiral perturbation theory. Our results partially disagree with those calculated before, and include new terms previously omitted in…
We investigate the semileptonic and nonleptonic decays of $B_s$ mesons. We work within the context of nonrelativistic constituent quark models. We calculate the different form factors that parameterize the hadron matrix elements.
Problems associated with the nonextensivity of a hadron gas were discussed some time ago. Recently the topic has come to light again and here earlier results are re-examined in the light of new knowledge and attention is drawn to problems…
The leptons are viewed as composite objects, exhibiting anomalous magnetic moments and anomalous flavor-changing transition moments. The decay \mu \to e \gamma is expected to occur with a branching ratio of the same order as the present…
The physics of the weak decay of hypernuclei is briefly reviewed from a theoretical point of view. Special regard is devoted to the recent progress concerning the determination of the non--mesonic decay widths and the asymmetry parameters.…
Recent lattice studies on (semi-)leptonic kaon decays towards a precise determination of V_us are reviewed. Attention is given to recent unquenched calculations and consistency of their results with chiral perturbation theory.
Selected results on hadronic decays of the tau lepton from the TAU98 Workshop are reviewed. A comprehensive picture emerges for strange particle branching fractions, and exploration of resonant substructure of both strange and non-strange…
I review some of the recent developments in the theoretical description of weak inclusive decays of heavy mesons. The topics cover the value of $|V_{cb}|$ as extracted from semileptonic inclusive decays and a short discussion of the…
Despite measurements which date more than 20 years ago, no straightforward solution of the ratio of the parity-conserving (P-wave) to parity- violating (S-wave) decays of the hyperons has been obtained. Here we use two 2-point methods in…
We discuss theoretical issues in radiative rare kaon decays. The interest is twofold: to extract useful short-distance information and understand the underlying dynamics. We emphasize channels where either we can understand non-perturbative…
A few aspects of the $\Lambda$ mesonic and non-mesonic decay in nuclei are shortly addressed.
In this article we will review the role and properties of hyperons in finite and infinite nuclear systems. In particular, we will revise different production mechanisms of hypernuclei, as well as several aspects of hypernuclear $\gamma$-ray…
Exclusive hadronic decays of the tau lepton provide an excellent framework to study the hadronization of QCD currents in a non-perturbative energy region populated by many resonances. I give a short review both on the main theoretical tools…
Searches for new physics using muons are reviewed. Particular attention is paid to muon number non-conserving processes, like the decay muon-->e+gamma and muon-electron conversion in muonic atoms. Also, experimental determinations and…
We briefly review the theoretical and experimental results concerning decays of positronium. Possible solutions of the "orthopositronium lifetime puzzle" are discussed. Positronium annihilation into neutrinos is examined and disagreement is…
We discuss issues in rare and radiative kaon decays. The interest is to extract useful short-distance information and uncover underlying dynamics. We emphasize channels where either we can understand non-perturbative aspects of QCD or there…
