Decay amplitudes of D(D_s)->f0(980)X, X=pi, K, are compared to experimental branching ratios with the aim of singling out the poorly known D->f0(980) transition form factor in these amplitudes. Since the other elements of the amplitudes are…
Within the framework of covariant confined quark model, we compute the transition form factors of $D$ and $D_s$ mesons decaying to light scalar mesons $f_0(980)$ and $a_0(980)$. The transition form factors are then utilized to compute the…
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…

We consider the nonleptonic and semileptonic decays of $D_s$-mesons into $\phi$ and $f_0(980)$ mesons. QCD sum rules are used to calculate the form factors associated with these decays, and the correspondig decay rates. On the basis of data…

We apply the light-cone QCD sum rules with chiral currents to compute transition form factors of the semileptonic decay of the charmed and bottom scalar mesons $D/B$ to $a_{0}(980)l^{+}\nu_{l}$ $(l=e$, $\mu)$, where the scalar meson…
Within perturbative QCD approach based on $k_T$ factorization, we analyze the scalar mesons $f_0(980)$ and $f_0(1500)$ productions in B decays. By identifying $f_0(980)$ as the composition of $\bar ss$ and $\bar nn=(\bar uu+\bar…
Within the QCD light-cone sum rule (LCSR) approach, we investigate the transition form factors of $D\rightarrow a_0(980)$ up to the twist-3 light-cone distribution amplitudes (LCDAs) of the scalar meson $a_0(980)$ in the two-quark picture.…
Using $e^+e^-$ collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 7.33~${\rm fb^{-1}}$ recorded by the BESIII detector at center-of-mass energies between 4.128 and 4.226~${\rm GeV}$, we present an analysis of the decay $D_{s}^{+}…
We examine the D_s -> f_0(980) pi amplitude through a constituent quark-meson model, incorporating heavy quark and chiral symmetries, finding a good agreement with the recent E791 data analysis of D_s -> 3pi via f_0(980). The f_0(980)…
We use the QCD sum rules to evaluate the form factors associated with the semileptonic decays of $D_s$ and $D$ mesons into $f_0(980)$. We consider the $f_0(980)$ meson as a quark-antiquark state with a mixture of strange and light…
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…
In the wake of exploring uncertainty in the full angular distribution of the $B\to K\pi+\mu^+\mu^-$ caused by the presence of the intermediate scalar $K^\ast_0$ meson, we perform the straightforward calculation of the $B(B_s)\to S$ (S is a…

The nonleptonic weak decays of charmed mesons into a scalar meson and a pseudoscalar meson are studied. The scalar mesons under consideration are $\sigma$ [or $f_0(600)$], $\kappa$, $f_0(980)$, $a_0(980)$ and $K^*_0(1430)$. A consistent…
