We re-examine the possibility to measure the photon polarization in $B \to K^*\gamma$ decays, via decays in which the photon subsequently undergoes nuclear conversion to a lepton pair. We obtain compact expressions for the full…
The $\gamma p \to K^+ \pi^0 \Lambda$ and $\gamma p \to K^+ \pi \Sigma $ reactions are studied in the kinematic region where the $\pi^0 \Lambda$(1116) and $\pi\Sigma$(1192) pairs originate dominantly from the decay of the $\Sigma$(1385) and…
The polarizabilities of light pseudoscalar mesons can be extracted from differential cross sections for Compton scattering near threshold. While this has been accomplished for charged pions employing Primakoff reactions, a corresponding…
Two coupled channel effects connected with kaon pair production in proton-proton collisions are discussed. (1) Although there is ample evidence that the antikaon is strongly attracted to the recoil protons in pp -> K+pK-p, residual effects…
The $\Theta^+$ pentaquark baryon was searched for via the $\pi^-p\to K^-X$ reaction in a missing-mass resolution of 1.4 MeV/$c^2$(FWHM) at J-PARC. $\pi^-$ meson beams were incident on the liquid hydrogen target with the beam momentum of…
The g p -> K^0 Sigma^+ reaction has been measured from threshold to Eg=1.45 GeV (W_cm=1.9 GeV) using the Crystal Ball and TAPS multiphoton spectrometers together with the photon tagging facility at the Mainz Microtron MAMI. In the present…
The production and properties of the resonances with the strangeness S = +1 in the system of nK+ were studied in the reaction np -> npK+K- at the momentum of incident neutrons Pn = (5.20+/-0.12)GeV/c. A number of peculiarities was found in…
In the framework of the multi-source thermal model employing the Tsallis distribution, the transverse momentum distributions of kaon, pion, and (anti -)proton production in U+U collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 193 GeV with varying centrality…
We examine cross sections for the processes $\gamma N\to NK\bar{K}$ in the framework of a phenomenological Lagrangian. We include contributions from $\Lambda$ and $\Sigma$ resonances up to spin 3/2, as well as those from an exotic…
A search for additional evidence for the rare kaon decay K^+ --> pi^+ nu nubar has been made with a new data set comparable in sensitivity to the previous exposure that produced a single event.
The cross sections for the reactions pp -> p Lambda^0K^+ and pn -> n Lambda^0K^+ are calculated near threshold of the final states. The theoretical ratio of the cross sections R = sigma(pn -> n Lambda^0K^+)/ sigma(pp ->p\Lambda^0K^+) = 3…
The contradiction between evidence for and against the existence of the Theta+ pentaquark might be resolved if it only appears as a result of a particular production mechanism which is present in some experiments and absent in others. We…
A theoretical model of the reactions e+ e- --> K+ K- gamma and e+ e- --> K0 K0bar gamma has been derived. The strong interaction between kaons is taken into account using a general form of the K Kbar scattering amplitude. It is shown that…
It is demonstrated that measurements of photon asymmetry in the $\gamma n \to K^- K^+ n$ reaction, can most likely determine the parity of the newly discovered $\Theta^+$ pentaquark. We predict that if the parity of $\Theta^+$ is positive,…
The effect of the final state Coulomb interaction on particles produced in Pb+Pb collisions at 158 A GeV/c has been investigated in the WA98 experiment through the study of the pi-/pi+ and K-/K+ ratios measured as a function of transverse…
We study photoproduction reactions for Theta^+, which was recently observed as a candidate of an exotic five quark state uudd(bar s). We employ effective lagrangian interactions in the linear and non-linear formalism of chiral symmetry and…
The discrepancy between Theta^+ photoproduction on proton vs. deuteron can be resolved if the photon couples much more strongly to K^+K^- than to K0 K0bar as indicated by the experimentally observed asymmetry between gamma p -->…
New preliminary results on kaon and pion production in central 30AGeV Pb+Pb collisions are presented. The data are compared to data at lower and higher energies to examine the energy dependence of the kaon to pion ratios and the inverse…
We have studied the $\gamma d \to K^+ K^- n p$ reaction in which the LEPS collaboration found a signal in the $K^+ n$ invariant mass for the claimed $\Theta(1540)$ pentaquark peak. Our study reveal that the procedure used at LEPS to…
The $\gamma p \to \gamma \pi^0 p$ reaction in the $\Delta(1232)$-resonance region is investigated as a method to access the $\Delta^+(1232)$ magnetic dipole moment. The calculations are performed within the context of an effective…
