The low-energy S-wave component of the decay $D^+ \to K^- \pi^+ \pi^+$ is studied by means of a chiral SU(3)XSU(3) effective theory. As far as the primary vertex is concerned, we allow for the possibility of either direct production of…
We report on the progress of our ongoing project to quantify the role of the charm quark in the non-leptonic decay of a kaon into two pions. The effect of its associated mass scale in the dynamics underlying the \Delta I = 1/2 rule can be…
The role of the charm quark in the dynamics underlying the \Delta I = 1/2 rule for kaon decays can be understood by studying the dependence of kaon decay amplitudes on the charm quark mass using an effective \Delta S = 1 weak Hamiltonian in…
The contributions of subleading shape functions to inclusive decay distributions of B mesons are derived from a systematic two-step matching of QCD current correlators onto soft-collinear and heavy-quark effective theory. At tree-level, the…
In the heavy-quark limit, the hadronic matrix elements entering nonleptonic $B$-meson decays into two light mesons can be calculated from first principles including ``nonfactorizable'' strong-interaction corrections. The $B\to\pi K,\pi\pi$…
Recent results on Dalitz analysis of three-pseudoscalar decays are discussed in the context of probing charm hadronic-decay mechanisms: the role of FSI effects, which create phase shifts between the interfering resonant channels, can be…
Recent measurements in the charm sector at BaBar are reviewed. The scope of the presentation includes the observation of two new narrow mesons in the D+(s)pi0 and D+(s)pi0gamma final states as well as the measurement of D0-D0bar mixing…
We calculate the ratios R_{e/mu}^{(P)} = Gamma(P -> e nu)/Gamma (P -> mu nu) (P=pi,K) in Chiral Perturbation Theory to order e^2 p^4. We complement the one- and two-loop effective theory results with a matching calculation of the local…
Using chiral low energy theorems and elastic unitarity assumption, the $\tau\to\pi K \nu $ decay is investigated. The vector and scalar $\pi K$ form factors are calculated. It is found that the $\pi K$ spectrum is dominated by the $K^*$…
We present the first theoretical calculation of nonfactorizable charm-quark loop contributions to the $B_s\to \gamma l^+l^-$ amplitude. We calculate the relevant form factors, $H_{A,V}^{\rm NF}(k'^2,k^2)$, and provide convenient…
The LHCb bounds on the branching ratio of rare decay $D^0 \to \mu^+ \mu^-$ and the constraints on the branching ratio of $D^+ \to \pi^+ \mu^+ \mu^-$ in the nonresonant regions enable us to improve constraints on new physics contributions.…
We present a model-independent analysis of $K^+\to\pi^+\ell^+\ell^-$ and $K_S\to\pi^0\ell^+\ell^-$ decays, including $K\to 3 \pi$ unitarity corrections and a general decomposition of the dispersive amplitude. From the existing data on…
The production of wrong sign charmed mesons b -> \bar D_{(s)} X, D_{(s)}=(D0,D+,D_s), is studied using the data collected by the DELPHI experiment in the years 1994 and 1995. Charmed mesons in Z -> b bbar events are exclusively…
The decays $K \to \pi l^{+} l^{-}$, $K \to \pi \gamma \gamma $ and $K \to \pi \nu {\bar \nu}$ are investigated using the higher order terms of the chiral perturbation theory. The counterterms induced by strong, weak and electromagnetic…
The flavor changing transitions in the c->u gamma, c->u gamma gamma and c->u l+ l- offer the possibility to search for new physics in the charm sector. We investigate dominant decay mechanisms in the radiative decays D->V gamma, D->P(V) l+…
It is shown that the K -> pi pi matrix elements of the four-quark operator Q_7, generated by the electroweak penguin-like diagrams of the Standard Model, can be calculated to first non-trivial order in the chiral expansion and in the 1/Nc…
In Ref [1] we have presented the results of an exploratory lattice QCD computation of the long-distance contribution to the $K^+\to\pi^+\nu\bar{\nu}$ decay amplitude. In the present paper we describe the details of this calculation, which…
We present a four-body semileptonic charm decay D^+ into K^-pi^+mu^+nu analysis in the range of 0.65 GeV/c^2 < mkpi < 1.5 GeV/c^2. We observe a low mass scalar contribution of 5.30 +- 0.74 + 0.99 - 0.96 % with respect to the total D^+ into…
Suppose that the weak interaction Hamiltonian of four-flavour SU(4) chiral effective theory is known, for a small charm quark mass m_c. We study how the weak Hamiltonian changes as the charm quark mass increases, by integrating it out…
An event consistent with the signature expected for the rare kaon decay K+ --> pi+ nu anti-nu has been observed. In the pion momentum region examined, 211<P<230 MeV/c, the backgrounds are estimated to contribute 0.08 +/- 0.03 events. If the…
