Description
The non-commutative Standard Model induces decays otherwise forbidden by the Lorentz and gauge invariance, and due to the violation of the angular momentum conservation. These are, in the gauge sector, Z\\to\\gamma\\gamma, and in the hadronic sector, flavour-changing decays of the type K\\to\\pi\\gamma. In the last section I present the transition rate of "transverse plasmon" decay into neutrino-antineutrino pair via non-commutative QED. Such decays give extra contributions to the mechanism for the energy loss in stars.
