In many calculations of the two--photon decay of hadronic molecules, the decay matrix element is estimated using the wave function at the origin prescription, in analogy to the two-photon decay of parapositronium. We question the…
The a_0(980), a_0(1450) and K_0(1430) decay constants are determined using a form of QCD sum rules known to produce a very accurate determination of the rho decay constant. The ratio of a_0(980) to K_0(1430) decay constants is shown to be…
The light-quark non-strange scalar mesons a0(980), f0(980), f0(1370), a0(1450), f0(1500) and f0(1710) are of great interest as there is no generally accepted view of their structure which can encompass q-q-qbar-qbar, molecular, q-qbar and…
The scalar contributions to the radiative decays of light vector mesons into a pair of neutral pseudoscalars, $V\to P^0P^0\gamma$, are studied within the framework of the Linear Sigma Model. This model has the advantage of incorporating not…
We study the effect of scalar-isoscalar $f_{0}(980)$ meson in the mechanism of the radiative $\phi\to \pi^{+}\pi^{-}\gamma$ decay. A phenomenological approach is used to study this decay by considering the contributions of $\sigma$-meson,…
We investigate the radiative decays of the $X(3872)$ to $\gamma V~(V=\rho^0,\, \omega)$ in the molecule scenario, where the $X(3872)$ is regarded as a pure hadronic molecule of the $D\bar{D}^*+c.c$ in an $S$-wave with the quantum numbers…
Radiative decays of hadronic states provide an essential source of information that can facilitate deciphering their nature and properties. However, a lot of confusion concerning radiative decays of hadronic molecules and their…
Different conclusions about quark nature of f0(980) based on the analysis of data on the reaction phi(1020) -> gamma f0(980) make it necessary to perform detailed comparison of formulae used by various groups for the calculation of partial…
We consider the contribution of scalar resonances to hadronic light-by-light scattering in the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon. While the $f_0(500)$ has already been addressed in previous work using dispersion relations, heavier…
We show that the recent paper \cite{kalash}, claiming that the radiative decays \phi\to a_0(980)\gamma and \phi\to f_0(980)\gamma should be of the same order of magnitude regardless of whether the a_0(980) and f_0(980) are compact…
We show on gauge invariance grounds that the fine threshold phenomenon is discovered in the radiative decays phi->gamma a0->gamma pi0 eta and phi->gamma f0->gamma pi0pi0. This enables to conclude that production of the lightest scalar…
The scalar contributions to the radiative decay $\phi\to K^0\bar K^0\gamma$ are studied within the framework of the Linear Sigma Model. Theoretical predictions for the associated subprocesses $\phi\to f_0\gamma$ and $\phi\to a_0\gamma$ as…
High-statistics data on the reactions $\gamma\gamma\to K^+K^-$ and $\gamma\gamma\to K^0\bar K^0$ are the last missing link in investigations of the light scalar mesons $f_0(980)$ and $a_0(980)$ in photon-photon collisions. It is believed…
We study the role of the scalar resonances f0(1370), f0(1500) and f0(1710) in the strong and radiative three-body decays of J/psi with J/psi to V + P P (gamma gamma) and J/psi to gamma + P P (V V), where P (V) denotes a pseudoscalar…
We study the radiative decays of the $Z_c(3900)^0$ in a hadronic molecule picture, where the $Z_c(3900)$ is treated as a $D \bar{D}^\ast +c.c$ hadronic molecule. The partial widths of $\Gamma(Z_c(3900)^0 \to \gamma \eta_c(2S))$ and…
Two photon decay widths of the $J^P = O^+$ scalar mesons $a_{0} (980)$, $f_{0}(980)$, $f_{0}(1370)$ and $\chi_{c0}$ are calculated in a covariant model which is characterized by the quark - antiquark structure. Previously such models were…
The decays of a light scalar meson into a vector meson and a photon ($S\to V\gamma)$ are evaluated in the tetraquark and quarkonium assignments of the scalar states. A link with the radiative decays $\phi\to S\gamma$ is established:…
The assignments of the isoscalar scalar mesons f0(980), f0(1370), and f0(1500) in terms of their qqbar substructure is still a matter of heated dispute. Here we employ the weak and electromagnetic decays D(s)(+) to f0+pi(+) and f0…
