True muonium ($\mu^+\mu^-$) is the heaviest and smallest bound state not involving quantum chromodynamics, after true tauonium ($\tau^+\tau^-$) and mu-tauonium ($\mu^\pm\tau^\mp$). Unlike atoms containing $\tau$ particles, the muon lifetime…
We study the effect of medium on radioactive alpha decay and other similar decays. The initial state in these type of decays is a quasi-bound state with energy greater than zero. Such a state has very large amplitude in the nuclear region…
Predictions for the muon decay spectrum are usually derived from the derivative-free Hamiltonian. However, it is not the most general form of the possible interactions. Additional simple terms with derivatives can be introduced. In this…
We determine the $\mathcal{O}(\alpha)$ correction to the energy spectrum of electrons produced in the decay of muons bound in atoms. We focus on the high-energy end of the spectrum that constitutes a background for the muon-electron…
We examine the muonium ($\mu ^+e^-$)-antimuonium ($\mu ^-e^+$) system in the models which accomodate the dilepton gauge bosons, and study their contributions to the ground state hyperfine splitting in ``muonium''. We also consider the…
Possibilities to test the Lorentz invariance of the weak interaction in muon decay are considered. We derive the direction-dependent muon-decay rate with a general Lorentz-violating addition to the W-boson propagator. We discuss…
The lifetime of the $\tau$-lepton is measured using the process $e^+e^-\rightarrow\tau^+\tau^-$, where both $\tau$-leptons decay to $3\pi\nu_\tau$. The result for the mean lifetime, based on $711\,\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ of data collected with…
It is shown that the non-zero transition magnetic moment ($\mu_{tran}$) between the sterile neutrino ($\nu_{s}$) and the muon neutrino ($\nu_{\mu}$) could be effectively searched for via the Primakoff effect, in the process of $\nu_{\mu} Z…
The structure and decay of $^{26}$O are investigated in a three-body $^{24}$O+$n+n$ model suitable for studies of the long-lived (including radioactivity timescale) states. We have found extremely strong effect of the subbarrier…
The results of evaluation of mixed QED X QCD corrections to R(s) in e^+e^- annihilation and R_{\tau} in hadronic decay of the \tau lepton to O(\alpha^n\alpha_s^m), m+n \leq 3, are presented. The net effect on \alpha_s(M_Z) from the Z decay…
In this study, we theoretically investigated x-ray spectra from the radiative decay of muonic deuterium molecules in resonance states dd$\mu^\ast$, which plays an important role in a new kinetic model of muon catalyzed fusion ($\mu$CF). The…
We consider the possibility of solar neutrino decay as a sub-leading effect on their propagation between production and detection. Using current oscillation data, we set a new lower bound to the $\nu_2$ neutrino lifetime at $\tau_2\, /\,…
The spectrum of electrons from muons decaying in an atomic bound state is significantly modified by their interaction with the nucleus. Somewhat unexpectedly, its first measurement, at the Canadian laboratory TRIUMF, differed from basic…
A prominent effective description of particles interacting with the quantum properties of gravity is through modifications of the general relativistic dispersion relation. Such modified dispersion relations lead to modifications in the…
We examine the magnetic field dependence of the muonium($\mu^+ e^-$) - antimuonium($\mu^- e^+$) conversion in the models which accommodate the dilepton gauge bosons. The effective Hamiltonian for the conversion due to dileptons turns out to…
Ordinary muon capture provides a benchmark for the nuclear physics models of neutrinoless double beta decay under comparable momentum transfer conditions. The total capture strength defines the lifetime of the muonic atom. The muon lifetime…
In this note, we analyze various constraints on the ``visible'' decay modes of a massive $\tau $ neutrino, $\nu_\tau\rightarrow\nu^\prime\,\gamma $ and $\nu_\tau\rightarrow\nu^\prime\, e^+ e^-$, where $\nu^\prime$ is a light neutrino. The…
The D^0 mixing parameter y = Delta Gamma/2 Gamma was determined by measuring the D^0 lifetime separately for the K^-pi^+ decay mode and the K^-K^+ decay mode with 12.4 fb^{-1} of data collected by the BABAR experiment in 2001. Backgrounds…
In this paper we discuss some aspects of inclusive decays of charmed mesons and also decays of the $\tau$ lepton into $\nu_\tau + 7\pi$. We find that phase space effects are likely to explain the observed lifetime ratio $\tau(D_s^+) /…
Quantum chromodynamics (QCD) effects in the semileptonic decay b -> c l nu are evaluated to the second order in the coupling constant, O(alpha_s^2), and to several orders in the expansion in quark masses, m_c/m_b. Corrections are calculated…
