We present new results for the matrix elements of the Q_6 and Q_4 penguin operators, evaluated in a large-Nc approach which incorporates important O(N_c^2\frac{n_f}{N_c}) unfactorized contributions. Our approach shows analytic matching…
We report on recent advances on the computation of the matrix elements of the electroweak penguins Q_7 and Q_8 which are relevant for the Delta I=3/2 contribution to epsilon'_K in the chiral limit. The matching of scale and scheme…
I discuss the role of the Delta I = 1/2 selection rule in K -> pi pi decays for the theoretical calculations of eps'/eps. Lacking reliable ``first principle'' calculations, phenomenological approaches may help in understanding correlations…
We perform a finite energy sum rule analysis of the flavor ud two-point V-A current correlator, Delta Pi (Q^2). The analysis, which is performed using both the ALEPH and OPAL databases for the V-A spectral function, Delta rho, allows us to…
QCD penguins are responsible for about 2/3 of the Delta I=1/2 rule in K to pi pi decays, as inferred from a combined analysis of K to pi pi and KL to gamma gamma. Further tests based on the decays KS to pi0 gamma gamma and K+ to pi+ gamma…
We present results for Delta I=3/2 and Delta S=2 matrix elements relevant for CP violation in K->Pi Pi decays and for the K_S-K_L mass difference in the standard model and beyond. They were obtained with Neuberger fermions on quenched gauge…
The transformation properties of strong penguin operators under the action of the flavor group change when they are considered as operators in (partially) quenched QCD instead of the unquenched theory. As a result, additional operators and…
We present results for the \Delta S=2 matrix elements which are required to study neutral kaon mixing in the standard model (SM) and beyond (BSM). We also provide leading chiral order results for the matrix elements of the electroweak…
Isospin-breaking effects, in particular those associated with electroweak-penguin contributions and pi0-eta,eta' mixing, have long been known to affect the Standard Model prediction of Re(epsilon'/epsilon) in a significant manner. We have…
Firstly, I report on a recent work --carried out with T. Hambye and E. de Rafael-- on how to use the large-Nc expansion to calculate unfactorized contributions from the strong penguin operators, and their impact on observables such as…
The transformation properties of strong penguin operators under the action of the flavor group change when they are considered as operators in (partially) quenched QCD instead of the unquenched theory. An ambiguity arises, which is…
We make an attempt to clarify the role of the annihilation or "penguin" mode in the description of the $K\rightarrow\pi\pi$ decay within the Standard Model. The attention is concentrated on new operators in the effective $\Delta S=1$…
A consistent census of penguins in the Delta I = 1/2 rule is taken from the eta0 pole contribution to the radiative KL to gamma gamma, KS to pi0 gamma gamma and K+ to pi+ gamma gamma decay modes. We briefly comment on its impact for KL to…
Recently, we pointed out that chiral transformation properties of penguin operators change in the transition from unquenched to (partially) quenched QCD. As a consequence, new operators appear in (partially) quenched QCD penguins,…
The one-loop corrections to K->pi and K->2pi matrix elements of the electroweak penguin operator are calculated. General next-to-leading order relations between the K->pi and K->2pi amplitudes are obtained. The fractional shift Delta_2 =…
I discuss the comparison of the current theoretical calculations of epsilon'/epsilon with the experimental data. Lacking reliable ``first principle'' calculations, phenomenological approaches may help in understanding correlations among…
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…
Exact analytical expressions for the $\Delta S=1$ coupling $\im G_E$ in terms of observable spectral functions are given. This coupling determines the size of the $\Delta I=3/2$ contribution to $\epsilon'$. We show analytically how the…
In the calculation of non-leptonic weak decay rates, a "mismatch" arises when the QCD evolution of the relevant weak hamiltonian down to hadronic scales is performed in unquenched QCD, but the hadronic matrix elements are then computed in…
The experimental value for the isospin amplitude Re(A_2) in K->pi pi decays has been successfully explained within the Standard Model, both within large N approach to QCD and by QCD lattice calculations. On the other hand in both approaches…
