Two-photon decay of a light scalar quark-antiquark state

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2008-12-18 v1

Abstract

The two-photon decay of a light scalar quarkonium is evaluated in a local and a nonlocal approaches. It is shown that the two-photon decay, driven by a triangle quark-loop diagram, is smaller than 1 keV for a mass below 0.7 GeV.
