In this paper, the branching ratios and the direct CP-violating asymmetries for decays $\bar B^0\to f_0(980)\bar K^{*0}$ and $B^-\to f_0(980)K^{*-}$ by employing the perturbative QCD factorization approach are studied. In the two-quark…

We derive gluon fragmentation functions in the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio (NJL) model by treating a gluon as a pair of color lines formed by fictitious quark and anti-quark ($q\bar q$). Gluon elementary fragmentation functions are obtained from the…

Strong decays of vector ($^3S_1$) mesons to the pair of pseudoscalar ($^1S_0$) mesons are considered in the framework of the microscopic decay mechanism and the relativistic quark model based on the quasipotential approach. The…

Properties of mesons are investigated within the Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model. We include meson-loop corrections, which are generated via a systematic 1/N_c-expansion in next-to-leading order. We show that our scheme is consistent with chiral…

We continue to study the properties of the light pseudoscalar nonet within the combined framework of Nambu -- Jona-Lasinio model and $1/N_c$ expansion, assuming that current quark masses count of order $\mathcal O(1/N_c)$. The masses,…

The potentialities of the production of the $a_0$ and $f_0$ mesons in the $\phi$ radiative decays are considered based on a new two-channel analysis of the $\pi\pi$ scattering in a energy region near 1 GeV. We predict $BR(\phi\to\gamma…

While the light scalar mesons ($S_0$) are considered to be either ordinary $q\bar q$ or exotic tetraquark states, we investigate the semileptonic decays $D\to S_0 e^+\nu_e$, by taking into account the resonant effects of $S_0\to M_1 M_2$,…

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…

A short review of the development of the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio (NJL) model is given. The SU(2)x SU(2) and U(3)x U(3) local quark NJL models are considered. The mechanisms of spontaneous breaking of chiral symmetry and vector dominance are…

The widths of the decays $\rho^{-}\to\eta\pi^{-}$ and $\tau^{-}\to\eta(\eta')\pi^{-}\nu$ are calculated in the framework of the NJL model. It is shown that these decays are defined by the $u$ and $d$ quark mass difference. It leads to the…

Ascribed as $\rho\rho$ and $K^* \bar{K}^*$ molecular states, respectively, iso-scalar $f_0(1500)$ and $f_0(1710)$ states are expected to have iso-vector partners, potentially identified as $a_0(1450)$ and $a_0(1710)$. The predicted dominant…

The decay $B\to f_0(980)K is studied within the framework of QCD factorization and the two-quark scenario for $f_0(980)$. There are two distinct penguin contributions and their interference depends on the unknown mixing angle $\theta$ of…

In the extended Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model, the decay widths of the processes $\tau \to [\omega(782), \phi(1020)] K^{-} \nu_{\tau}$ were calculated. The intermediate strange quark-antiquark mesons in both the ground and the first radially…

The extrapolation of the decay amplitudes of the pseudoscalar mesons into two photons from the soft meson limit where it is obtained from the axial-anomaly to the mass shell involves the contribution of the 0^ - continuum. These chiral…

We explore the decay of a vector meson to two pseudoscalar mesons on the lattice with $N_f=2$ flavours of sea quark. Although we are working with quark masses that do not allow a physical decay, we show how the transition rate can be…
