Strong Decays of $Q \bar Q$ Mesons

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-10-22 v1

Abstract

We present a detailed study of the two-body strong decays of light mesons. Both the space part and the spin-flavor-color part of the wave functions are generated algebraically and closed forms are obtained for all decays. Experimental deviations from our systematics are seen to be suggestive of both missing mesons and exotic QCD configurations.
