{$SU(3)$} breaking in {$\bar{B}/D\rar Kl\bar \nu$} decays and value of {$V_{cd}/V_{cs}$}}
We determine the $SU(3)$-breaking effects in the $\bar{B}/D \rar Kl\bar \nu$ decays from the ratio of the $\bar{B}/D\rar Kl\bar \nu$ over the $\bar{B}/D \rar \pi l\bar \nu$ semileptonic form factors using a {\it semi-analytic} expression based on QCD spectral sum rules. We obtain $f_+^{\bar{B}\rar K}(0)/f_+^{\bar{B} \r...

SU(2)-Flavor-Symmetry Breaking in Nuclear Antiquark Distributions
SU(2)-flavor-symmetry breaking in antiquark distributions of the nucleon was suggested by the New Muon Collaboration (NMC) in deep inelastic muon scattering. As an independent test, Drell-Yan data for the tungsten target have been used for examining the asymmetry. We investigate whether there exists significant modific...

The $D^0\bar{D}^0$ Mixing Search --- Current Status and Future Prospects
The search for $D^0\bar{D}^0$ mixing carries a large discovery potential for new physics since the $D^0\bar{D}^0$ mixing rate is expected to be very small in the Standard Model. The past decade has seen significant experimental progress in sensitivity, from 20\% down to 0.37\%. This paper discusses the techniques, curr...

A Precise Determination of $\alpha_s$ from Lattice QCD
We present a new determination of the QCD strong coupling constant based on precise lattice calculations of the $\Upsilon$ spectrum. The largest systematic uncertainty in previous such determinations resulted from the absence of vacuum polarization from light quarks. We substantially reduce this error by including two ...

Non-universal Soft Scalar Masses in Superstring Theories
We study soft scalar masses comparing with gaugino masses in 4-dimensional string models. In general non-universal soft masses are derived in orbifold models.

Implications of a Purely Right-Handed Bottom Quark Decay Coupling
We examine the implications of the hypothesis that the decays of the b-quark occur via pure right-handed couplings. We show that the existing lower limits on neutrinoless double beta decay imply that any gauge model realizing this idea must have either an $L_e-L_\mu$ or $L_e-L_\tau$ symmetry. We then show that constrai...

Light Stops in the MSSM: Implications for Photino Dark Matter and Top Quark Decay
We consider the viability of the minimal supersymmetric standard model with a light ($m_{\tilde t_1} < $ 45 GeV) stop. In order for its relic abundance to be cosmologically significant, the photino as dark matter must be quite close in mass to the stop, $(m_{\tilde t_1} - m_{\tilde \gamma}) \simeq 3 - 7 $ GeV. However,...
