A number of old and new methods for computing K → ππ amplitudes on the lattice are reevaluated. They all involve a non-perturbative determination of matching coefficients. I will show how problems related to operator mixing can be greatly reduced by introducing the O.P.E. of hadronic currents directly on the lattice. Applications to the evaluation of CP-symmetric (∆I = 1/2 rule) and CP-violatin...

Time-dependent CP asymmetries in B decays from interference of B-B 0 mixing and b → cc̄s, uūd, sqq̄, and direct asymmetries from interference of b → cūs and b → uc̄s are studied, improving errors in the weak phases β and γ to ±1◦ and ±7◦, respectively. Two kinds of tests for New Physics are discussed: 1. Deviations of asymmetries in b → sqq̄ decays from sin 2β sin∆mt. 2. Violation of a sum rule for...

We discuss the application of the MPSTV non-perturbative method [1] to the operators relevant to kaon decays. This enables us to reappraise the long-standing question of the ∆I = 1/2 rule, which involves power-divergent subtractions that cannot be evaluated in perturbation theory. We also study the mixing with dimension-six operators and discuss its implications to the chiral behaviour of the B...

A non-destructive measuring technique to determine the fiber content in hardened steel fiber reinforced concrete is presented. The technique is based on an accurate open-ended coaxial probe reflectometry method for measuring the effective permittivity of the fiber reinforced concrete and on a mixing rule from the classical homogenization theory for deriving the fiber content from the measured p...

The available data on ω and φ production from πN and pp collisions are reanalyzed with respect to an OZI rule violation on the basis of transition matrix elements. The data are found to be compatible with a constant ratio R up to excess energies ǫ≈300 MeV, however, the ratio R deviates substantially from the SU(3) prediction based on the present knowledge of the φ − ω mixing angle.

Violations of the Okubo-Zweig-Iizuka (OZI) rule in ss̄ ↔ nn̄≡ 1 √ 2 (uū+dd̄) mixing and φ production from NN̄ annihilation are reviewed. Possible explanations are examined. We conclude that the two-step hadronic loops can explain these OZI violations naturally with proper consideration of cancellations between loops. No conclusive evidence exists for glueball states, ss̄nn̄ four quark states, instant...

Phasepy is a scientifically defined open-source package in python for computational thermodynamics. indeed calculates the interfacial properties and fluid phases equilibrium using an equation of state. In addition, enables scientists to optimize relevant parameters multicomponent vapor-liquid, liquid-liquid, or vapor-liquid-liquid mixtures. The can model continuous approach (combining cubic sta...

a r t i c l e i n f o Continuous powder mixing has attracted a lot of interest within the pharmaceutical industry. Much work has been done recently that targets the characterization of continuous powder mixing. In this paper, a quantitative scaling up strategy is introduced that allows the transition from lab to industrial scale. The proposed methodology is based on the variance spectrum analys...

We study the impact of mixing (LR mixing) between standard model $W$ boson and its hypothetical, heavier right-handed parter ${W}_{R}$ on neutrinoless double beta decay ($0\ensuremath{\nu}\ensuremath{\beta}\ensuremath{\beta}$ decay) rate. Our is done in minimal left-right symmetric assuming a type-II dominance scenario with charge conjugation as symmetry. then show that $0\ensuremath{\nu}\ensur...

as a result of rule of law ideal, judges are required to act in accordance with laws. the ideal is justified by some political values: political liberty, legal liberty , personal liberty and equality. citizens are subject only to the law not to the arbitrary will or judgment of another who wields coercive government power. but in some cases law is indeterminate. in these cases there is an impor...
