Radiative decays of heavy and light mesons in a quark triangle approach

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-10-28 v1

Abstract

The radiative meson decays VPγV\to P\gamma and PγγP\to \gamma\gamma are analyzed using the quark triangle diagram. Experimental data yield well determined estimates of the universal quark-antiquark-meson couplings gVqqˉg_{Vq\bar{q}'} and gPqqˉg_{Pq\bar{q}'} for the light meson sector. Also predictions for the ratios of neutral to charged heavy meson decay coupling constants are given and await experimental confirmation.
