Hadronic decays

High Energy Physics - Lattice 2011-04-11 v1

Abstract

Hadronic decays and transitions are a key ingredient of hadronic physics. I discuss how hadronic decays can be explored in lattice gauge theory and review studies undertaken. I also discuss the impact of decays on masses and how lattice studies can explore the nature of a hadronic state: namely whether it is a molecular or quark-antiquark state. A brief discussion of lattice exploration of pentaquark states is presented.
