The isospin violating decay $f_1(1285)\toπ^+π^-π^0$ has been studied at VES facility. This study is based at the statistics acquired in $π^- Be$ interactions at 27, 36.6 and 41 GeV/c in diffractive reaction $π^- N \to (f_1 π^-) N$. The $f_1(1285) \to π^+π^-π^0$ decay is observed. The ratio of decay probabilities $BR(f_1(1285) \to π^+π^-π^0)$ to $BR(f_1(1285) \to ηπ^+π^-) \cdot BR(η\to γγ)$ is $\sim\:1.4%$.
Dalitz plot of the $η' \to ηπ^+π^-$ decay is studied using the data collected with the VES spectrometer in two different exclusive reactions. The coefficients for the matrix element squared decomposition are measured on the largest statistics of $η'$ decays reported so far.
The concept of a very long baseline neutrino experiment with quasi monochromatic neutrino beam and very large area underground detector is discussed. The detector could be placed in the existing 20 km tunnel at IHEP, Protvino. The High Intensity Proton Accelerators (HIPA) which are planned to be built in Japan (JAERI-KEK, baseline of 7000 km) and Germany (GSI, baseline of 2000 km) as well as the Main Injector at Fermilab (7600 km) are considered as possible sources of neutrino beams. The oscillations are analysed in the three-neutrino scheme taking into account terrestrial matter effects. In the proposed experiment it is feasible to observe the oscillation pattern as an unique proof of the existence of neutrino oscillations. Precise measurements of disappearance oscillation parameters of the muon neutrinos and antineutrinos can be done within a reasonable time.
