During the recent years experiments with neutral kaons have yielded remarkably sensitive results which are pertinent to such fundamental phenomena as CPT invariance (protecting causality), time-reversal invariance violation, coherence of…
CP-violating asymmetries in charm provide a unique probe of physics beyond the Standard Model. I review several topics relevant to searches for CP-violation in charmed meson and baryon transitions.
A short overview of theoretical predictions for various kaon decays is presented. Particular attention is devoted to pure and radiative nonleptonic decays in the framework of Chiral Perturbation Theory. The relevance of KLOE's future…
A brief review of the theoretical status of CP violation in decays of neutral kaons is presented. We focus on three important topics: $\varepsilon$, $\varepsilon'/\varepsilon$ and $K_L\to\pi^0\nu\bar\nu$.
The neutral Kaon decays Ks->gamma gamma and Kl->pi0 gamma gamma are very sensitive to higher order loop effects of Chiral Perturbation Theory (ChPT). New measurements of the NA48 experiment show that ChPT contributions of O(p^6) cannot be…
Recent developments in the theory of weak decays of heavy flavours are reviewed. Applications to exclusive semileptonic B decays, the semileptonic branching ratio and charm counting, beauty lifetimes, and hadronic B decays are discussed.
In framework of the chiral perturbation theory we obtain the phenomenological relations between decay branches of rare radiative kaon to pion and leptons $K^+ \to \pi^+ l^+ l^-$ and $K^0_S \to \pi^0 l^+ l^-$ and meson form factors. The…
After listing basic properties of the Standard Model (SM) that play the crucial role in the field of flavour and CP violation, we discuss the following topics: 1) CKM matrix and the unitarity triangle. 2) Theoretical framework in a…
This chapter provides an in-depth analysis of the properties and phenomena associated with neutral K-mesons. Kaons are quantum systems illustrating strange behaviours. We begin by examining the significance of strangeness and charge parity…
Rare flavour changing neutral current decays of strange, charm and beauty hadrons have been instrumental in building up a picture of flavour in the Standard Model. Increasingly precise measurements of these decays allow to search for…
In the first part of the talk, we briefly review the problem of parton-energy loss and thermalization at the Relativistic Heavy-Ion Collider and discuss how heavy quarks (charm and bottom) can help to resolve the existing experimental and…
With the running B, kaon and neutrino physics experiments, flavour physics takes centre stage within today's particle physics. We discuss the opportunities offered by these experiments in our search for new physics beyond the SM and discuss…
In accordance to the aim of the constituing meeting of the COST action CA24159 ``Structure and Spectroscopy of Hadrons Research Project'' to introduce the different groups to the action, in this talk we give an overview over the subjects…
A pedagogically oriented review is given of progress made over the past year in our understanding of physics related to the charm quark. Included are discussions of the R_c deficit, the \psi' anomaly, charm spectroscopy, D nonleptonic…
In this review, we discuss some interesting issues in charm physics which is full with puzzles and challenges. So far in the field there exist many problems which have not obtained satisfactory answers yet and more unexpected phenomena have…
We review several aspects of K-Physics: i) Main targets of the field, ii) The theoretical framework for K-decays, iii) Standard analysis of the unitarity triangle, iv) epsilon'/epsilon, v) Rare and CP violating K-decays, vi) Comparision of…
We discuss prospects for detecting the two charm-related phenomena of $D^0$-${\bar D}^0$ mixing and weak radiative decays of $D$ mesons ({\it e.g.} $D\to K^* + \gamma$). A general update of particle-antiparticle mixing for the pseudoscalar…
After a brief introduction to the so-called flavour problem, we discuss the role of rare K decays in probing the mechanism of quark-flavour mixing. Particular attention is devoted to the formulation of the Minimal Flavour Violation…
After sketching heavy quark expansions as applied to heavy flavour decays I emphasize the relevance of nonperturbative dynamics at the charm scale for exclusive $b\to c$ modes. I address the issue of quark-hadron duality for charm and…
We review some recent theoretical results on rare kaon decays. Particular attention is devoted to establish the short distance (direct CP violating) contribution to K_L => \pi^0 e \bar{e}. This is achieved by a careful study of the long…
