We identify the $T$-odd structure functions that appear in the description of polarized top quark decays in the sequential decay $t(uparrow) to X_b+W^+(to ell^+ + u_ell)$ (two structure functions) and the quasi-three-body decay $t(uparrow) to X_b+ ell^+ + u_ell$ (one structure function). A convenient measure of the magnitude of the $T$-odd structure functions is the contribution of the imaginary part Im $g_R$ of the right-chiral tensor coupling $g_R$ to the $T$-odd structure functions which we work out. Contrary to the case of QCD the NLO electroweak corrections to polarized top quark decays admit of absorptive one-loop vertex contributions. We analytically calculate the imaginary parts of the relevant four electroweak one-loop triangle vertex diagrams and determine their contributions to the $T$-odd helicity structure functions that appear in the description of polarized top quark decays.

We develop a methodology for the computation of the $Kto ell u_ell ell^+ ell^-$ decay width using lattice QCD and present an exploratory study here. We use a scalar function method to account for the momentum dependence of the decay amplitude and ado pt the infinite volume reconstruction (IVR) method to reduce the systematic errors such as the temporal truncation effects and the finite-volume effects. We then perform a four-body phase-space integral to obtain the decay width. The only remaining technical problem is the possible power-law finite-volume effects associated with the process of $Ktopipi ell u_ellto ell u_ell ell^+ ell^-$, where the intermediate state involves multiple hadrons. In this work, we use a gauge ensemble of twisted mass fermion with a pion mass $m_pi=352$ MeV and a nearly-physical kaon mass. At this kinematics, the $pipi$ in the intermediate state cannot be on shell simultaneously as $2m_pi>m_K$ and the finite-volume effects associate with $pipi$ state are exponentially suppressed. Using the developed methods mentioned above, we calculate the branching ratios for four channels of $Kto ell u_ellell^+ ell^-$, and obtain the results close to the experimental measurements and ChPT predictions. Our work demonstrates the capability of lattice QCD to improve Standard Model prediction in $Kto ell u_ell ell^+ ell^-$ decay width.

We discuss the production of polarized hadrons in polarized lepton nucleon interactions and show that the helicity density matrix of the hadron, when measurable, can give information on the spin structure of the nucleon and the spin dependence of the quark fragmentation process. Single spin asymmetries in the $ell N^uparrow to hX$ process are also briefly discussed.

The first lattice QCD calculation of the form factors governing $Lambda_c to Lambda ell^+ u_ell$ decays is reported. The calculation was performed with two different lattice spacings and includes one ensemble with a pion mass of 139(2) MeV. The resu lting predictions for the $Lambda_c to Lambda e^+ u_e$ and $Lambda_c to Lambda mu^+ u_mu$ decay rates divided by $|V_{cs}|^2$ are $0.2007(71)(74):{rm ps}^{-1}$ and $0.1945(69)(72):{rm ps}^{-1}$, respectively, where the two uncertainties are statistical and systematic. Taking the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix element $|V_{cs}|$ from a global fit and the $Lambda_c$ lifetime from experiments, this translates to branching fractions of $mathcal{B}(Lambda_ctoLambda e^+ u_e)=0.0380(19)_{rm LQCD::}(11)_{tau_{Lambda_c}}$ and $mathcal{B}(Lambda_ctoLambda mu^+ u_mu)=0.0369(19)_{rm LQCD::}(11)_{tau_{Lambda_c}}$. These results are consistent with, and two times more precise than, the measurements performed recently by the BESIII Collaboration. Using instead the measured branching fractions together with the lattice calculation to determine the CKM matrix element gives $|V_{cs}|= 0.949(24)_{rm LQCD::}(14)_{tau_{Lambda_c}}(49)_{mathcal{B}}$.
Besides being important to determine Standard Model parameters such as the CKM matrix elements $|V_{cb}|$ and $|V_{ub}|$, semileptonic $B$ decays seem also promising to reveal new physics (NP) phenomena, in particular in connection with the possibili ty of uncovering lepton flavour universality (LFU) violating effects. In this view, it could be natural to connect the tensions in the inclusive versus exclusive determinations of $|V_{cb}|$ to the anomalies in the ratios $R(D^{(*)})$ of decay rates into $tau$ vs $mu, e$. However, the question has been raised about the role of the parametrization of the hadronic $B to D^{(*)}$ form factors in exclusive $B$ decay modes. We focus on the fully differential angular distributions of $bar B to D^* ell^-{bar u}_ell$ with $D^* to D pi$ or $D^* to D gamma$, the latter mode being important in the case of $B_s to D_s^*$ decays. We show that the angular coefficients in the distributions can be used to scrutinize the role of the form factor parametrization and to pin down deviations from SM. As an example of a NP scenario, we include a tensor operator in the $b to c$ semileptonic effective Hamiltonian, and discuss how the angular coefficients allow to construct observables sensitive to this structure, also defining ratios useful to test LFU.
After improving the knowledge about residua of the semileptonic form factor at its first two poles we show that $f_+^{Dpi}(q^2)$ is not saturated when compared with the experimental data. To fill the difference we approximate the rest of discontinuit y by an effective pole and show that the data can be described very well with the position of the effective pole larger than the next excitation in the spectrum of $D^ast$ state. The results of fits with experimental data also suggest the validity of superconvergence which in the pole models translates to a vanishing of the sum of residua of the form factor at all poles. A similar discussion in the case of $Bto pi ell u_ell$ leads to the possibility of extracting $vert V_{ub}vert$, the error of which appears to be dominated by $g_{B^ast Bpi}$, which can be nowadays computed on the lattice. In evaluating the residua of the form factors at their nearest pole we needed the vector meson decay constants $f_{D^ast}$ and $f_{B^ast}$, which we computed by using the numerical simulations of QCD on the lattice with $N_{rm f}=2$ dynamical quarks. We obtain, $f_{D^ast}/f_D=1.208(27)$ and $f_{B^ast}/f_B=1.051(17)$.
