The physical state of $\rho$-$\omega$-$\phi$ mesons can be mixed by the unitary matrix. The decay processes of $\omega \rightarrow \pi^{+}\pi^{-}$ and $\phi \rightarrow \pi^{+}\pi^{-}$ are from the isospin symmetry breaking. The…
It is shown that in reaction \gamma\gamma\to\ell^+\ell^-+\nu's at \sqrt{s}>200 GeV with polarized photons, large and well observable differences arise in the distribution of positive and negative charged leptons (\ell=\mu^\pm, e^\pm),…
In view of ongoing experimental activities to determine the pion polarizabilities, we have started to recalculate the available two-loop expressions in the framework of chiral perturbation theory, because they have never been checked…
We measured, with the KLOE detector, the spectrum of pi+pi- invariant mass in a sample of 6.7 x 10^5 e+e- --> pi+pi-g events with the photon at large polar angle (theta_g>45^o) at a centre of mass energy sqrt(s) around the phi mass. We…
A review on the requirements of chiral symmetry on effective quark models is presented. The connection between the pion Salpeter amplitude and the mass gap equation is discussed. Hadronic scattering, notably, $\pi\pi$ scattering is…

We calculate the isospin symmetry violating effects to the reactions $pp\rightarrow d\pi ^+$ and $np\rightarrow d\pi ^0$ arising from the different hadron masses and from the Coulomb interaction between the positive pion and the deuteron.…
Within the framework of dispersion theory, we study the the processes $e^+e^-\to \phi(2170) \to \phi \pi\pi(K\bar{K})$. The strong pion-pion final-state interactions, especially the $K\bar{K}$ coupled channel in the $S$-wave, are taken into…
The complementarity between Chiral Perturbation Theory and the Linear Sigma Model in the scalar channel is exploited to study $\pi^0\pi^0$ production in $\rho$ and $\omega$ radiative decays, where the effects of a low mass scalar resonance…
We construct effective one-loop vertices and propagators in the linear sigma model at finite temperature, satisfying the chiral Ward identities and thus respecting chiral symmetry, treating the pion momentum, pion mass and temperature as…
The various dynamical scales below the pion mass involved in $\pi^{+}$ $\pi^{-}$ atoms are sequentially integrated out using non-relativistic effective field theory techniques. This allows us to systematically organise the corrections to…
We present a calculation of the pi+ pi- invariant-mass correlations and the pion balance functions in the single-freeze-out model. A satisfactory agreement with the data for Au+Au collisions is found.
The process eta -> pi0 pi0 gamma gamma is discussed in Chiral Perturbation Theory (ChPT) extending two recent analyses. Special attention is devoted to one-loop corrections, eta-eta' mixing effects and vector-meson dominance of ChPT…

Leading-order electromagnetic loop corrections to the one-pion-exchange potential are computed within the framework of chiral perturbation theory. These corrections generate an effective nucleon-nucleon potential, $V_{\pi \gamma}$, which…
The e+e- --> pi+pi-pi0pi0 reaction cross section as a function of the incident energy is calculated using a model that is an extension of our recently published model of the e+e- annihilation into four charged pions. The latter considered…
We study the effect of the sigma(600) and a_1(1260) resonances in the rho^0 -> pi^+ pi^- gamma decay, within the meson dominance model. Major effects are driven by the mass and width parameters of the sigma(600), and the usually neglected…
We consider the interference of resonant amplitudes leading to the final state $K_S \pi^+ \pi^-$ in $D^0/\bar {D^0}$ decays. Each of these amplitudes consists of both Cabibbo allowed and doubly Cabibbo suppressed transitions. The role of…
