J/psi dissociation by light mesons in an extended Nambu Jona-Lasinio model

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-08-18 v2

Abstract

An alternative model for the dissociation of the J/psi is proposed. Chiral symmetry is properly implemented. Abnormal parity interactions and mesonic form factors naturally arise from the underlying quark sub-structure. Analytic confinement for the light quarks is generated by appropriately chosen the quark interaction kernels. Dissociation cross sections of the J/psi by either a pion or a rho meson are then evaluated and discussed.
