An outstanding mystery of charmonium physics is why the J/\psi decays prominently to pseudoscalar plus vector meson channels, such as J/\psi -> \rho \pi and J/\psi -> K^*K, whereas the \psi'(2S) does not. We show that such decays of J/\psi…
We study the purely leptonic decay of the charged $B$-meson within the $U_1$ Vector Leptoquark model at both leading-order and with one-loop QCD corrections. The structure of this amplitude is characterised by direct quark-lepton couplings…
Various nonleptonic decay channels mediated by the quark-level subprocess $b\to s\bar{s} s$ show hints of deviation from the Standard Model expectations. We analyse the double-vector decay $B\to\phi K^\ast$ with different generic new…
We evaluate the $a_1(1260) \to \pi \sigma (f_0(500))$ decay width from the perspective that the $a_1(1260)$ resonance is dynamically generated from the pseudoscalar-vector interaction and the $\sigma$ arises from the…
Goldstone boson decays of P-wave $D_s^{**}$ mesons are studied within the framework of Heavy Hadron Chiral Perturbation Theory. We first analyze the simplest single kaon decays of these strange charmed mesons. We derive a model independent…
I briefly review the experimental observations concerning the charmed mesons $D_{sJ}^*(2317)$, $D_{sJ}(2460)$ and survey on some of the interpretations proposed in order to understand their nature. I present an analysis of their decay modes…
We propose a phenomenological Lagrangian for the decay of the SU(3) nonets of the axial-vector mesons of $J^{PC}=1^{+-},1^{++}$ into a vector meson and a pseudoscalar constructed with tensor fields for the vector and axial-vector mesons.…
Cabibbo-allowed charmed meson decays into a pseudoscalar meson and an axial-vector meson are studied. The charm to axial-vector meson transition form factors are evaluated in the Isgur-Scora-Grinstein-Wise quark model. The dipole momentum…
The $f_0(1710)$ was previously proposed to be dynamically generated state by interactions between vector mesons. We extend the study of $f_0(1710)$ by including its coupling to channels of pseudoscalar mesons within coupled-channel…
We consider the Quasilocal Quark Model of NJL type including vector and axial-vector four-fermion interaction with derivatives. In the presence of a strong attraction in the scalar channel the chiral symmetry is spontaneously broken and as…
The interaction of the pseudoscalar meson and the baryon octet is investigated by solving the Bethe-Salpeter equation in the unitary coupled-channel approximation, In addition to the Weinberg-Tomozawa term, the contribution of the $s-$ and…
The $s-$wave meson-baryon scattering is analyzed for the strangeness $S=-1$ and isospin I=0 sector in a Bethe-Salpeter coupled channel formalism incorporating Chiral Symmetry. Four channels have been considered: $\pi \Sigma$, $\bar K N$,…
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…
Assuming $X(6900)$ is a tetraquark state, the decay width of $X(6900)\to 2J/\psi$ is calculated in a covariant quark model, with the diquark-antidiquark $[cc][\bar{c}\bar{c}]$ picture. Two possible structures, vector-vector and…
We study $S$-wave interactions of the baryon decuplet with the octet of pseudoscalar mesons using the lowest order chiral Lagrangian. In the S=1 sector, we find an attractive interaction in the $\Delta K$ channel with I=1 while it is…
We study the properties of axial vector mesons a1 and b1 as relativistic S-wave states which are predicted in the U~(12)-scheme, through the analyses of their radiative and pionic decays. Specifically, partial widths of the strong a1 (b1)…
The radiative decay of the axial-vector resonances into a pseudoscalar meson and a photon is studied using the vector meson Lagrangian obtained from the hidden gauge symmetry (HGS) formalism. The formalism is well suited to study this…
The s-wave interactions of the baryon decuplet with the octet of pseudoscalar mesons is studied in a unitarized coupled channel approach. We obtain a fair agreement for mass and width of several 3/2- resonances. In particular, the Xi(1820),…
The formalism developed recently to study vector meson--vector meson interaction, and applied to the case of $\rho\rho$, is extended to study the interaction of the nonet of vector mesons among themselves. The interaction leads to poles of…
The structure of the scalar mesons has been a subject of debate for many decades. In this work we look for $\bar{q}q$ states among the physical resonances using an extended Linear Sigma Model that contains scalar, pseudoscalar, vector, and…
