The paper is devoted to vector or pseudoscalar heavy quarkonia production J/\psi, \psi(2S), B_{s} or B_s^* in association with five charged \pi-mesons in exclusive B_c-meson decays. Using available formfactors parameterizations and spectral…
We study the dynamical generation of resonances in isospin singlet channels with mixing between two- and four-quark states. To this end we generalise a Bethe-Salpeter approach to four-quark states employed previously \cite{Heupel:2012ua} to…
Hidden-heavy hadrons can decay into pairs of heavy hadrons through transitions from confining Born-Oppenheimer potentials to hadron-pair potentials with the same Born-Oppenheimer quantum numbers. The transitions are also constrained by…
We report on recent results on the decay of the phi into pi^+ pi^- and phi radiative decays into pi^0 pi^0 gamma and pi^0 eta gamma, which require the consideration of the final state interaction of a pair of mesons in a region inaccessible…
We investigate the decay $\phi\to\pi^+\pi^-\pi^0$ in an effective-Lagrangian framework that keeps the dominant $\rho\pi$ mechanism and the direct three-pion term explicitly separated at the amplitude level. The resonant contribution is…
Within the framework of non-local quark model of Nambu--Jona-Lasinio type the two-photon decay of radial excited state of $\pi_0$-meson -- $\pi_0'$ -- is found to be $3.6\KeV$. The radial excitation of pion is described with the use of…
We have made a survey of heavy-to-heavy and heavy-to-light nonleptonic heavy baryon two-body decays and have identified those decays that proceed solely via $W$-boson emission, i.e. via the tree graph contribution. Some sample decays are…
Motivated by the LHCb measurement, we analyze the $B_s\to \pi^+\pi^-\ell^+\ell^-$ decay in the kinematics region where the pion pairs have invariant mass in the range $0.5$-$1.3$ GeV and muon pairs do not originate from a resonance. The…
We use the Polyakov-loop extended two-flavor quark-meson model as a low-energy effective model for QCD to study the phase diagram in the $\mu_I$--$T$ plane where $\mu_I$ is the isospin chemical potential. In particular, we focus on the Bose…
I present the calculation of the $\pi^+\gamma^\star\to\pi^+\pi^0$ transition amplitude from quantum chromodynamics performed by the Hadron Spectrum Collaboration. The amplitude is determined for a range of values of the photon virtuality…
We present progress on the study of decay-channel effects in the properties of hadrons using covariant Bethe-Salpeter equations (BSEs). The main goal will be to develop BSE kernels that contain explicit decay mechanisms. This will be first…
The decays of $\chi_{cJ} \to \pi^+\pi^-, K^+K^-$ $(J=0,2)$ are discussed within the standard and modified hard scattering approach when including the contributions from twist-3 distribution amplitudes and wave functions of the light…
The nonleptonic decay $\Xi^0_c \to \Lambda^+_c \pi^-$ with $\Delta C=0$ is systematically studied in the framework of the covariant confined quark model with accounting for both short and long distance effects. The short distance effects…
The final state interactions of pions in decays $K^\pm\to\pi^\pm\pi^0\pi^0$ are considered using the methods of quantum mechanics. We show how to incorporate the electromagnetic effects in the amplitudes of these decays and to work out the…
We study two-colour QCD with two flavours of Wilson fermion at non-zero chemical potential mu and zero temperature. We find evidence of two separate transitions: an onset transition at mu ~ m_pi/2 where quark number and energy densities…
Resonance production and decay into pion pairs is simulated in a non-extensive quark matter with multi-particle interactions. Final state pion spectra are found to take the form of the Tsallis distribution, in accordance with measurements.…
We consider the general scenario of an excited level |i> of a quantum system that can decay via two channels: (i) via a single-quantum jump to an intermediate, resonant level |bar m>, followed by a second single-quantum jump to a final…
We study the hard exclusive production of two pions in the virtual photon fragmentation region with various invariant masses including the resonance region. The amplitude is expressed in terms of two-pion light cone distribution amplitudes…
The $B_{c}$ ${\to}$ $B_{s}{\pi}$ decay is studied with the perturbative QCD approach. Three types of wave functions for $B_{s}$ meson are considered. The transition form factor $F_{0}^{B_{c}{\to}B_{s}}(0)$ and the branching ratio ${\cal…
