I present a simple discussion of the masses and mixings of the light pseudoscalar and vector mesons based on a ``$q\bar{q}$'' description of the effective field theory. The analysis includes $\eta'$(958) from the beginning, and is largely…
A weighted average weak mixing angle theta_W derived from relatively low Q^2 experiments is compared with the Standard Model prediction obtained from precision measurements. The approximate 1.8 sigma discrepancy is fit with an intermediate…
We calculate the coupling constants between the light vector mesons and heavy mesons within the framework of the light-cone QCD sum rule in the leading order of heavy quark effective theory. The sum rules are very stable with the variations…
We investigate $\pi\rho$ scattering based on the coupled-channel formalism with the $\pi\rho$ and $K\bar{K}^*$ ($\bar{K}K^*$) channels included. We construct the kernel amplitudes by using the meson-exchange model and compute the coupled…
Charmed meson decays to a light pseudoscalar ($P$) and light vector ($V$) meson are analyzed taking account of $\eta$--$\eta'$ mixing. A frequently-used octet-singlet mixing angle of $19.5^\circ$ is compared with a value of $11.7^\circ$…
The $B_{u,d,s}\to V,A$ form factors are studied in perturbative QCD approach ($V,A$ denote a vector meson and two kinds of p-wave axial-vector mesons: $^3P_1$ and $^1P_1$ states, respectively.). The form factors are directly studied in the…
Exclusive radiative B decays, B to K* gamma, K_1(1270) gamma, K_1(1400) gamma and K*_2(1430) gamma, are studied in the framework of a covariant light-front quark model. The tensor form factor T_1(q^2) at q^2=0, which is relevant to the…
New spin-1 particles with masses below the weak scale are present in many theories of beyond Standard Model (SM) physics. In this work, we extend previous analyses by systematically considering the couplings of such a vector to the bosonic…
We investigate what can be learnt about the $\eta$ -$\eta'$ mixing by means of dispersive representation of axial anomaly. We show that our method leads to the strong bounds for the $\eta-\eta'$ mixing angle: $\theta = -15.3^o \pm 1^o$.…
We apply the light-front quantization to the Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model with the vector interaction, and compute vector meson's mass and light-cone wavefunction in the large N limit. Following the same procedure as in the previous analyses…
Recent results from T2K, MINOS and Double CHOOZ all indicate a sizeable reactor angle theta_13 which would rule out conventional tri-bimaximal lepton mixing. However, it is possible to maintain the tri-bimaximal solar and atmospheric mixing…
If the Higgs boson $H(125)$ is a composite due to new strong interactions at high energy, it has spin-one partners, $\rho_H$ and $a_H$, analogous to the $\rho$ and $a_1$ mesons of QCD. These bosons are heavy, their mass determined by the…
We assess possible axial-vector states with $G$-parity $\left(G=\pm 1\right)$ dynamically generated by pseudoscalar-vector interactions in coupled channels, driven by the Weinberg-Tomozawa term at leading order in chiral perturbation…
The potential of the $B$ meson and the pseudoscalar meson is constructed up to the next-to-leading order Lagrangian, and then the $B \bar{K}$ and $B_s \pi$ interaction is studied in the unitary coupled-channel approximation, and a resonant…
We examine the $\Xi_Q - \Xi'_Q$ mixing and heavy baryon masses in the heavy quark effective theory with the $\mq$ corrections. In the conventional baryon assignment, we obtain the mixing angle $\cos^2 \theta = 0.87\pm 0.03$ in virtue of the…
We study the vector-axialvector mixing in a hot medium and its evolution toward the chiral phase transition using different symmetry restoration scenarios based on the generalized hidden local symmetry framework. We show that the presence…
We present results for the mixing of quark flavor eigenstates to form low-lying vector and tensor meson mass eigenstates in a generalized QCD-like theory with $\ell$ massless or light, degenerate quarks and one quark of substantial mass,…
In this proceeding, we report our recent study of the mixing mechanism between $D_{s1}(2460)$ and $D_{s1}(2536)$. On the basis of Godfrey-Isgur model, we consider the $D^*K$ hadron loop effect on the ${}^3P_1$ and ${}^1P_1$ $c\bar{s}$…
A role of the axial vector mesons, such as $K_1$ and $a_1$, on the emitted photon spectrum in hot hadronic matter is studied through the channels $\pi \rho \to a_1 \to \pi \gamma$ and $K \rho \to K_1 \to K \gamma$. They are shown to be…
We calculate the complete form of the dimension-8 condensate contributions in the two-point correlator of the ($1^{-+}$,$0^{++}$) light hybrid current considering the operator mixing under renormalization. We find the inclusion these higher…
