We study the $J/\psi \to \gamma \pi^+ \pi^-$, $\gamma \pi^0 \eta$ reactions from the perspective that they come from the $J/\psi \to \phi(\omega) \pi^+ \pi^-, \rho^0\pi^0 \eta$ reactions, where the $\rho^0$, $\omega$, and $\phi$ get…

The processes $e^+e^-\to e^+e^-X$, with $X$ being either the $\eta$ meson or $\pi^0\pi^0$, are studied at DA$\Phi$NE, with $e^+e^-$ beams colliding at $\sqrt{s}\simeq1$ GeV, below the $\phi$ resonance peak. The data sample is from an…
We reanalyse the gamma-gamma scattering data and conclude that in the mass region below 1 GeV the cross section for gamma-gamma to pi^0-pi^0 can be largely explained by the one pion exchange process with pi-pi rescattering. The radiative…
