A novel comparison between the data and the theory is proposed for the nonmesonic (NM) weak decay of hypernuclei. Instead of confronting the primary decay rates, as is usually done, we focus attention on the effective decay rates that are…

The nonmesonic weak decay of $\Lambda$ hypernuclei is studied using nuclear matter. We have developed a formalism which gives a microscopic interpretation of the process of emission of particles originated in this decay. More specifically,…

A sensitive search for the rare decays \Omega^- \to \Lambda \pi^- and \Xi^0 \to p \pi^- has been performed using data from the 1997 run of the HyperCP (Fermilab E871) experiment. Limits on other such processes do not exclude the possibility…

We have made a new evaluation of the Lambda decay width in nuclear matter within the Propagator Method. Through the Local Density Approximation it is possible to obtain results in finite nuclei. We have also studied the dependence of the…

This paper investigates the beta decay of nuclei within the sd model space, encompassing the $0d_{3/2}$, $0d_{5/2}$, and $1s_{1/2}$ shells. We comprehensively analyze their decay characteristics, including the half-life, $logft$ value, Q…

The $\Delta$ decay in the nuclear medium is calculated in the relativistic meson-nucleon model. The delta spreading width is calculated and compared with the Pauli-blocked $\pi$N decay width. The influence of relativistic mean fields is…

We have gained enough statistical precision to distinguish signal from noise in matrix elements of all operators relevant for the Delta I=1/2 rule in kaon decays and for the direct CP violation parameter epsilon-prime. We confirm…

We review recent developments concerning the weak decay of Lambda hypernuclei. New studies covering the mesonic decay channel as well as recent models for the non-mesonic one are discussed and compared with experimental data. The puzzle of…

We study the Delta I =3/2 and Delta S =2 amplitudes for hyperon decays of the form (B to B(prime) pion) at lowest order in chiral perturbation theory. At this order, the Delta I=3/2 amplitudes depend on only one constant. We extract the…

Theoretical descriptions of the non-mesonic weak decay of Lambda-hypernuclei are unable to reproduce the experimental values of the ratio Gn/Gp=G(Lambda n -> nn)/G(Lambda p -> np). In this contribution we discuss a new approach to this…

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 analyze long-distance contributions to the K --> pi pi amplitudes relevant for the Delta I = 1/2 selection rule in the framework of the 1/N_c expansion. We use a modified prescription for the identification of meson momenta in the chiral…

The role of $\beta$ decay as a low-energy probe of physics beyond the Standard Model is reviewed. Traditional searches for deviations from the Standard Model structure of the weak interaction in $\beta$ decay are discussed in the light of…

We compute the modified factorization contributions to the $\Lambda\rightarrow N\rho$ and $\Sigma\rightarrow N\rho$ couplings and demonstrate that these contributions naturally include $\Delta I=3/2$ terms which are comparable ($\simeq 0.4$…

In this talk, we present an explanation for the Delta I = 1/2 rule in K-decays based on the premise of an infrared fixed point alpha_IR in the running coupling alpha_s of quantum chromodynamics (QCD) for three light quarks u,d,s. At the…

The pieces of the hypernuclear strangeness violating potential due to the pseudoscalar meson exchanges are derived using methods which were successfully applied to hyperon nonleptonic decays. The estimates are tested by comparison with…

I review a recent attempt to reproduce the isospin $I= 0$ and 2 amplitudes for the decay of a kaon into two pions by estimating the relevant hadronic matrix elements in the chiral quark model. The results are parametrized in terms of the…

Weak interaction in nuclei represents a well-known venue for testing many of the fundamental symmetries of the Standard Model. In particular, neutrinoless double-beta decay offers the possibility to test Beyond Standard Model theories…

Neutrinoless double-beta decay is a forbidden, lepton-number-violating nuclear transition whose observation would have fundamental implications for neutrino physics, theories beyond the Standard Model and cosmology. In this review, we…

$\beta$-decay rates of neutron-rich nuclei, in particular those located at neutron shell closures, play a central role in simulations of the heavy-element nucleosynthesis and resulting abundance distributions. We present $\beta$-decay…
