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…
Calculations of eta->pi^0 pi^0 gamma gamma decay in generalized chiral perturbation theory are presented. Tree level and some of next-to-leading corrections are involved. Sensitivity to the deviations from the standard chiral perturbation…
In light of recent high-precision data taken by the BESIII Collaboration, we reconsider the dipion transition $\psi(3686) \rightarrow J/\psi \pi^+\pi^-$. The strong pion-pion final-state interactions are taken into account…
We compute B->K eta' branching ratio using perturbative QCD approach. We show that a triangular relation among amplitudes for B^0->K^0 pi^0, B^0->K^0 eta, B^0->K^0 eta' receives large corrections from SU(3) breaking effects. If experimental…

In the framework of an effective chiral theory of mesons, pi K scattering is stydied. The scattering lengths, phase shifts, and cross sections are calculated. Theoretical results agree well with data. There is no new parameter in this…

We use one-loop chiral perturbation theory (ChPT) to compare lattice results for the K+ to pi+ pi0 decay amplitude with the experimental value. Three systematic effects: quenching, finite-volume effects, and the use of unphysical values of…
It is pointed out that the decay of the recently observed charmonium eta_c^prime resonance, eta_c^prime -> eta_c pi pi is simply related to the well studied decay psi^prime -> J/psi pi pi and can thus be used for absolute normalization of…
It has been argued long ago that eta(b) could be observed through the eta(b) => J/psi(=> mu+ mu-) J/psi(=> mu+ mu-) decay chain. Recent calculations indicate that the width of eta(b) into two J/psi is almost three order of magnitude smaller…
We perform a theoretical study of the $D_s^{+}\to \pi^{+}\pi^{+}\pi^{-}\eta$ decay. We look first at the basic $D_s^{+}$ decay at the quark level from external and internal emission. Then hadronize a pair or two pairs of $q\bar{q}$ states…
The NA48/2 experiment at the CERN SPS collected in 2003 and 2004 large samples of the decays K+- -> pi+ pi- e+- nu (Ke4+-), K+- -> pi0 pi0 e+- nu (Ke400) and K+- -> pi0 pi0 pi+-. From the Ke4+- form factors and from the cusp in the M00^2…

The experimental determination of low energy pi K scattering phase shifts would assist in determining scattering lengths as well as low energy constants of chiral perturbation theory for which sum rules have been constructed. The FOCUS…
