Summary: In this study, the authors investigate the inconsistency between the fixed order and contour-improved (CIPT) perturbative expansions in measuring the hadronic spectral function moments of τ-lepton decay. This inconsistency has affected the precision of αs determinations for a long time and is found to be related to the CIPT expansion being inconsistent with the standard formulation of the operator product expansion. The authors provide a mathematical analysis of the asymptotic sequence of functions used in the CIPT method and explain the origin of the CIPT inconsistency as well as the reasons for its apparent good convergence at low orders. The results have general interest and can serve as a useful tool to check the consistency of similar expansion methods to CIPT.

Summary: In this study, the interpolating currents and decay constants of D(*())(D) over bar (()*()), D-(*())(K) over bar (()*()), and D-(*D-)(s)(*()-) hadronic molecular states were calculated using QCD sum rules. The relative production rates in B and B* decays and relative branching ratios were then calculated through current algebra and Fierz rearrangement.

Summary: The theoretical framework for quasi-two-body D meson decays is constructed using pion and kaon electromagnetic form factors. The study analyzes the contributions of subprocesses rho(770, 1450) -> K (K) over bar for three-body D decays within flavor SU(3) symmetry and finds that quasi-two-body processes could be observed in Dalitz plot analyses for related decays.

Summary: In this article, we present a fully differential calculation method for lepton pair production. The calculation takes into account the dominant second-order QED corrections, as well as next-to-leading order electroweak and polarization effects, lepton masses, hard photon emission and non-perturbative hadronic corrections. We implemented the corresponding matrix elements in the Monte Carlo framework MCMULE. To ensure numerical stability, we extended the next-to-soft stabilization technique, which is based on a next-to-leading-power expansion, to calculations with polarized leptons. As an example, we provided results tailored to the Belle II detector with the current setup, as well as a potential future configuration that includes polarized beams.

Summary: In this study, we investigate the quasi-two-body and three-body decays and derive several important results, including the discovery that certain naïve expectation of vanishing emission diagrams actually receive correction contributions, the suggestion that studying three-body decays of light scalars is more sensible than two-body decays, the finding that the four-quark description of light scalars is generally in better agreement with experiment, the failure of the topological amplitude approach in inferring the branching fractions of D -> SP decays, the prediction of smaller branching fractions for D-0 -> f(0)P, a(0)P compared to experimental data, the significance of W-exchange amplitudes in the SP sector, and the importance of finite-width effects for broad sigma/f(0)(500) and kappa/K-0*(700) mesons.

Summary: Based on the assumption that eta(1405) and eta(1475) are one-state particles, this study investigates the productions and radiative decays of eta(1295) and eta(1405/1475) states. The (K) over bar K* + c.c. meson loops are found to play important roles in the hadronic and radiative decays of these states.

Summary: Within the effective-field-theory framework, this study presents a model-independent analysis of the potential of discovering new physics through lepton flavor violation in heavy quarkonium decays. It computes the constraints from LFV muon and tau decays on new-physics operators and provides a comprehensive list of indirect upper limits on LFV processes. The results show that the constraints are stringent and make the detection of quarkonium decays into e mu difficult, while improvements in sensitivities are required for the detection of decays into lt. Additionally, searches for LFV Z decays at future e(+) e(+) colliders are found to be complementary probes of 2q2l operators with third generation quarks.

Summary: Three decades ago, the heavy-flavor-conserving weak decays of heavy baryons were studied. Recent investigations have revealed the dominant role of nonspectator effects on the P-wave amplitude. The S-wave amplitude of Omega(b) -> Xi(b)pi decays vanishes in the heavy quark limit, while additional contributions from W-exchange are observed in Omega(c) -> Xi(c)pi decays. The asymmetry parameter alpha is positive, and the predicted branching fractions are in the order of 10(-4).

Summary: Three-body semileptonic tau-decays are a way to investigate light hadronic systems and CP symmetry violations through searches for electric dipole moments. The hadronic part of final states in electro-weak physics has traditionally been described using form factors. This study presents a detailed description of hadronic currents decomposed into quantum numbers of the hadronic final state using the isobar picture.

Summary: Based on the hypothesis that the Tcc discovered at LHCb is a D0=D0 hadronic molecule, we studied the partial width of its heavy quark spin partner, the Tcc, as a D⠂0D⠂0 shallow bound state. We considered the contributions of the D⠂D and D⠂pi final state interactions and found that the rescattering corrections can significantly affect the decay widths. The total width of the Tcc was predicted to be about 41 keV.

Summary: In this study, nonfactorizable contributions in the two-body weak decays (B) over bar -> pi D/(B) over bar -> rho D and (B) over bar -> pi D* are examined using isospin analysis. Strong interaction phases are determined and factorizable contributions are obtained from spectator-quark diagrams. Nonfactorizable isospin amplitudes for these modes are determined from experimental data, and the results support the universality of the ratio of nonfactorizable isospin reduced amplitudes for these decays within experimental errors.

Summary: The B-0 lifetime and flavor-oscillation frequency are measured using B-0 -> D(*)-x+ decays collected by the Belle II experiment at the SuperKEKB collider. The decay-time distribution of signal decays is fitted to determine the initial flavor, identified by the flavor of the other B meson in the event. Based on 33000 signal decays reconstructed in a data sample corresponding to 190 fb(-1), the results are zB(0) = (1.499 +/- 0.013 +/- 0.008) ps, Amd = (0.516 +/- 0.008 +/- 0.005) ps(-1), with the first uncertainties being statistical and the second being systematic. These results are consistent with the world-average values.

Summary: In this paper, the analysis of mass spectrum and calculation of strong decay for K-2* mesons support the assignment of M = 1868 +/- 8(-57)(+/- 40) MeV and M = 2073 +/- 94(-240)(+/- 245) MeV as the same states [K-2*(1980)]. This study reveals important criteria for the assignment of observed K-2*(1980) and suggests experimental findings for this assignment. Additionally, some partial decay widths are predicted based on the high excitations of the K-2* family. This research is crucial for establishing and searching for higher excitations in the future.

Summary: The study discusses the strong two- and three-body decays of the new excited hyperon Omega*(2012) in the hadronic molecular approach. Results show that the decay widths of the two-body decay modes are compatible with or dominate over the rates of the three-body modes. The suppression of the three-body decay rate may be due to the dominant admixture of the Omega eta hadronic component in the Omega*(2012) state.
