Deep underground in Kolar Gold Fields, in southern India, an experiment to detect proton decay had been carried out since the end of 1980. Analysis of data yielded the following results; (l) the life time of proton is about 1 x 1031 years, (2) it decays into wide spectrum of decay modes, p -> e+ + pai0, p ->anti-nutrino + K+ and so on, and (3) the life time and the distribution of decay modes are close to the predictions of SU(5) SUSY GUT. Four events representing possibly neutron oscillation are also seen.

This report is intended to describe first, the principal physics reasons for an ambitious experimental program in neutrino physics and proton decay based on construction of a series of massive water Cherenkov detectors located deep underground (4850 ft) in the Homestake Mine of the South Dakota Science and Technology Authority (SDSTA); and second, the engineering design of the underground chambers to house the Cherenkov detector modules; and third, the conceptual design of the water Cherenkov detectors themselves for this purpose. Included in this document are preliminary costs and time-to-completion estimates which have been exposed to acknowledged experts in their respective areas. We have included some contingency factors. Nevertheless, we recognize that much more extensive documentation and contingency estimates will be needed for a full technical design report. In this proposal we show the event rates and physics sensitivity for beams from both FNAL (1300 km distant from Homestake) and BNL (2540 km distant from Homestake). The program we propose will benefit from a beam from FNAL because of the high intensities currently available from the Main Injector with modest upgrades. The possibility of tuning the primary proton energy over a large range from 30 to 120 GeV also adds considerable flexibility to the program from FNAL.

A direct experimental evidence of the occurrence of the weak reaction $Lambda nprightarrow nnp$ in nuclei has been obtained by the FINUDA experiment. Three events have been found that can be attributed to $^{7}_{Lambda}$Li and $^{9}_{Lambda}$Be two n ucleon-induced non mesonic weak decays. The kinematic analysis of such events is presented here.
We report a search for charmless hadronic decays of neutral B mesons to the final state K+K-pi0. The results are based on a 711 fb^-1 data sample that contains 772x10^6 BB-bar pairs, and was collected at the Y(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e+e- collider. We find the first evidence for this decay with a significance of 3.5 standard deviations and measure its branching fraction as BF(B0 --> K+K-pi0) = [2.17 +/- 0.60(stat) +/- 0.24 (syst)]x10^-6.
A search for the rare decays Bs->mu+mu- and B0->mu+mu- is performed using data collected in 2011 and 2012 with the LHCb experiment at the Large Hadron Collider. The data samples comprise 1.1 fb^-1 of proton-proton collisions at sqrt{s} = 8 TeV and 1. 0 fb^-1 at sqrt{s}=7 TeV. We observe an excess of Bs -> mu+ mu- candidates with respect to the background expectation. The probability that the background could produce such an excess or larger is 5.3 x 10^-4 corresponding to a signal significance of 3.5 standard deviations. A maximum-likelihood fit gives a branching fraction of BR(Bs -> mu+ mu-) = (3.2^{+1.5}_{-1.2}) x 10^-9, where the statistical uncertainty is 95% of the total uncertainty. This result is in agreement with the Standard Model expectation. The observed number of B0 -> mu+ mu- candidates is consistent with the background expectation, giving an upper limit of BR(B0 -> mu+ mu-) < 9.4 x 10^-10 at 95% confidence level.
We report a search for the charmless hadronic decay $B^0toeta pi^0$ with a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 694 $rm fb^{-1}$ containing $753times10^6$ $Bbar{B}$ pairs. The data were collected by the Belle experiment running on the $Upsilon(4S)$ resonance at the KEKB $e^+e^-$ collider. We measure a branching fraction $mathcal{B}(B^0toetapi^0)=(4.1^{+1.7+0.5}_{-1.5-0.7})times 10^{-7}$, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. Our measurement gives an upper limit of $mathcal{B}(B^0toetapi^0)<6.5times 10^{-7}$ at 90% confidence level. The signal has a significance of $3.0$ standard deviations and constitutes the first evidence for this decay mode.
