Using data from the FOCUS (E831) experiment at Fermilab, we present new measurements for the Cabibbo-suppressed decay mode $D^0 \to \pi^-\pi^+\pi^-\pi^+$. We measure the branching ratio $\Gamma(D^0 \to\pi^+\pi^- \pi^+\pi^-)/\Gamma(D^0 \to…

We study the triangle mechanism for the decay $\tau^- \to \nu_\tau \pi^- f_0(980)$, with the $f_0(980)$ decaying into $\pi^+ \pi^- $. This process is initiated by $\tau^- \to \nu_\tau K^{*0} K^-$ followed by the $K^{*0}$ decay into $\pi^-…

The $a_0^0(980)-f_0(980)$ mixing is one of the most potential tools to learn about the nature of $a_0^0(980)$ and $f_0(980)$. Using the $f_0(980)$-$a_0^0(980)$ mixing intensity $\xi_{af}$ measured recently at BESIII, we calculate the the…

We calculate within the Extended Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model the leading in $1/N_c$ contribution to $\gamma\gamma\to\pi^0\pi^0$ to all orders in the external momenta and quark masses. This result is then combined with the known two-loop…

Possible manifestations of the isospin-breaking mixing of the $a^0_0(980)$ and $f_0(980)$ resonances are analyzed in the $D^0\to K^0_S \pi^+\pi^-$ and $D^0\to K^0_S\eta\pi^0$ decays. It is shown that the $a^0_0(980)-f_0(980)$ mixing has the…

In the Nambu - Jona-Lasinio model the decay widths $\tau \to (\pi, \pi'(1300)) \nu_{\tau}$ were calculated. For the calculation of the decay width $\tau \to \pi \nu_{\tau}$ the standard NJL model was used with taking into account the…

We calculate the $00^{++}$-wave two-meson spectra for the reactions $\gamma\gamma\to\pi^0\pi^0$, $\gamma\gamma\to\pi^+\pi^-$, $\gamma\gamma\to K^0\bar K^0$ and $\gamma\gamma\to K^+ K^-$ on the basis of: (i) the results of the $K$-matrix…

The scalar meson exchange in $\phi\to P^0 P^0\gamma$ decays is discussed in a chiral invariant framework where the scalar meson poles are incorporated explicitly. $\phi\to\pi^0\pi^0\gamma$ and $\phi\to\pi^0\eta\gamma$ are in agreement with…
