Using the CLEO II detector, we have measured the differential cross sections for exclusive two-photon production of light pseudoscalar mesons 0 , , and Ј. From our measurements we have obtained the form factors associated with the electromagnetic transitions ␥*␥→meson. We have measured these form factors in the momentum transfer ranges from 1.5 to 9, 20, and 30 GeV 2 for 0 , , and Ј, respectively, and have made comparisons to various theoretical predictions. ͓S0556-2821͑98͒01001-7͔

This paper gives the results of a study of single-pion production by the weak charged current utilizing the wide-band muon-type-neutrino beam at the Argonne Zero Gradient Synchrotron. The data were obtained from hydrogen and deuterium fillings of the 12-ft bubble chamber. The methods of event selection and separation from background are given as are the details of the corrections and systematic effects in the data sample. The energy-dependent cross sections and differential distributions are presented for the three single-pion production reactions vp -p p y + , vn +p and vn -p -n r f . An isospin decomposition shows that the ratio of I = , to I = amplitudes is 0.68k0.04 with a relative phase of (90.7k4.6)" for M ( N a ) < 1.4 GeV. This agrees with theoretical models, particularly the detailed calculation of Adler. Using the data of the reaction vp -p-pa+, the characteristic mass of the nucleon axial-vector elastic form factor is measured to be 0.98' ::;GeV when analyzed within the context of the Adler model. The data are also compared to other parametrizations of the nucleon axial-vector form factor. 1161

We have observed the decays B° -» K*(892)°j and B~ -> K*(892)~ry, which are evidence for the quark-level process b -• 57. The average branching fraction is (4.5 ± 1.5 ± 0.9) x 10~5. This value is consistent with standard model predictions from electromagnetic penguin diagrams. PACS numbers: 13.40.Hq, 14.40.Jz One-loop, flavor-changing neutral current diagrams, meson decays [1].
