The HyperCP collaboration observed three events for the decay Sigma to p mu+ mu-. They suggested that new physics may be required to understand the implied decay rate and the observed dimuon invariant mass distribution. Motivated by this…
The LHCb Collaboration has recently reported evidence for the rare hyperon decay $\Sigma^+\to p\mu^+\mu^-$ that is consistent with the standard model expectation. Motivated by this new result we revisit the calculation of this mode…
We report the first evidence for the decay Sigma+ -> p mu+ mu- from data taken by the HyperCP experiment(E871) at Fermilab. Based on three observed events, the branching ratio is B(Sigma+ -> p,mu+,mu-) = [8.6 +6.6,-5.4(stat) +/-5.5(syst)] x…
The HyperCP collaboration has recently reported the observation of three events for the decay \Sigma^+ \to p mu^+ mu^- with an invariant mass m_{\mu^+\mu^-} for a muon and an anti-muon pair of \sim 214 MeV. They suggest that a new particle…
Motivated by the LHCb measurement of the hyperon decay mode $\Sigma^+\to p\mu^+\mu^-$ and prospects for improvement, we revisit the estimates for the rate and muon forward-backward asymmetry within the standard model and beyond. 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^-.…
A search for the rare decay $\Sigma^+ \to p \mu^+ \mu^-$ is performed using $pp$ collision data recorded by the LHCb experiment at centre-of-mass energies $\sqrt{s} = 7$ and $8$ TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $3 fb^{-1}$.…
A search for $\Sigma^+ \to p \mu^+ \mu^-$ decays with LHCb Run 1 data is presented, yielding an evidence for this decay and a measurement of a branching fraction compatible with the Standard Model. The HyperCP anomaly in the dimuon…
The decay $B^- \to K^- K^- \pi^+$ has been sugested as a test for minimal supersymmetric standard model and for supersymmetric models with R-parity violating couplings, in view of its extreme smallnesss in the standard model. We calculate…
We present a calculation of the rare decay modes D^0 -> e^+ e^- gamma and D^0 -> mu^+ mu^- gamma in the framework of Standard Model. For the short distance part, we have derived QCD corrections to the Wilson coefficients involved, including…
Using data collected with the HyperCP (E871) spectrometer during the 1997 fixed-target run at Fermilab, we report the first observation of the decay K- -> pi- mu+ mu- and new measurements of the branching ratios for K+/- -> pi+/- mu+ mu- .…
The long-distance contribution via the two-photon intermediate state to the forward-backward asymmetries in decays K+ --> pi+ l+ l- (l=e and mu) has been studied within the standard model. In order to evaluate the dispersive part of the K+…
The HyperCP (E871) experiment collected several billion hyperon decays in the 1997 and 1999 Fermilab fixed-target running periods. Using the data from the 1999 run, we report on the observation of three isolated events with reconstructed…
The rare Hyperon decay $\Sigma^+ \to p \ell^+ \ell^-$ is an $s \to d$ flavour changing neutral current process, which is highly suppressed within the Standard Model, and is therefore sensitive to new physics. Due to recent improvements in…
The HyperCP collaboration has observed three events for the decay Sigma^+ -> p mu^+ mu^- which may be interpreted as a new particle of mass 214.3 MeV. However, existing data from kaon and B-meson decays severely constrain this…
The interplay between short- and long-distance contributions to the K_L-->mu+ mu- decay amplitude is analyzed. The long-distance piece is estimated using chiral perturbation theory techniques and large-N_C considerations, leading to a…
The B_s to mu+ mu- decay plays an outstanding role in tests of the Standard Model and physics beyond it. The LHCb collaboration has recently reported the first evidence for this decay at the 3.5 sigma level, with a branching ratio in the…
The LHCb collaboration has recently observed the rare hyperon decay $\Sigma^+\to p\mu^+\mu^-$. It can also measure the corresponding antihyperon channel with comparable precision and is thus in a position to extract information on $CP$…
The rare decay B -> K* (-> K pi) mu+ mu- is regarded as one of the crucial channels for B physics as the polarization of the K* allows a precise angular reconstruction resulting in many observables that offer new important tests of the…
In light of recent experimental information from the CLEO, BaBar, KTeV, and Belle collaborations, we investigate some consequences of the possibility that a light spin-one particle is responsible for the three Sigma^+ -> p mu^+ mu^- events…
