The $f_1(1285)$ meson with mass $1281.0 \pm 0.8$ MeV/$c^2$ and width $18.4 \pm 1.4$ MeV (FWHM) was measured for the first time in photoproduction from a proton target using CLAS at Jefferson Lab. Differential cross sections were obtained…
The width of the $f_1 (1285) \to e^+e^-$ decay is calculated in the vector meson dominance model. The result depends on the relative phase between two coupling constants describing $f_1 \to \rho^0\gamma$ decay. The width $\Gamma (f_1 \to…
We evaluate the decay width for the processes $f_1(1285) \to \pi^0 a_0(980)$ and $f_1(1285) \to \pi^0 f_0(980)$ taking into account that all three resonances are dynamically generated from the meson-meson interaction, the $f_1(1285)$ from…
The processes $e^{+}e^{-}\!\to\! (f_1(1285), a_1(1260))\gamma$ in threshold domain are considered in the framework of the extended Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model. The channels with the ground $\rho(770)$, $\omega(782)$ and radially excited…
The decays of narrow light vector mesons into pseudoscalar mesons and dileptons are calculated to leading order in a recently proposed scheme which treats pseudoscalar and vector mesons on equal footing. Since all required parameters have…
Within a picture of the $f_1(1285)$ being a dynamically generated resonance from the $ K^*\bar K$ interactions, we estimate the rates for the radiative transitions of the $f_1(1285)$ meson to the vector mesons $\rho^0$,$\omega$ and $\phi$.…
We discuss the general decomposition and possible general parameterizations of the processes $e^+ e^- \to \gamma^* \to P_1 P_2 \gamma$, where $P_1 P_2=\pi^0 \pi^0$, $\pi^0\eta$, or $\pi^+\pi^-$, for $\sqrt{s}\approx M_\Phi$. Particular…
The total cross sections of the process $e^+ e^-\to \Lambda_c^+ \bar{\Lambda}_c^-$ close to the threshold are calculated within the vector meson dominance model. It is found that the theoretical results can describe the current experimental…
We present several recent results from the BaBar collaboration in the areas of initial state radiation physics and transition form factors. An updated study of the processes e+e- -> K+K-pi+pi- and e+e- -> K+K-pi0pi0 provides an improved…
Recently, the BaBar Collaboration reported a broad resonance structure near 2 GeV when analyzing the $e^+e^-\to f_1(1285)\pi^+\pi^-$ process, which provides a good opportunity to study the higher $\rho$-mesonic states. When considering the…
We perform a dispersive analysis of the $\omega\pi$ electromagnetic transition form factor, using as input the discontinuity provided by unitarity below the $\omega\pi$ threshold and including for the first time experimental data on the…
We study the transition form factors (TFFs) of axial-vector mesons in the context of currently available experimental data, including new constraints from $e^+ e^- \to f_1(1285) \pi^+ \pi^-$ that imply stringent limits on the high-energy…
A study of the f1(1285) and f1(1420) produced in central pp interactions has been performed. For the first time in a single experiment the branching fractions of both mesons in all major decay modes have been determined. Both the f1(1285)…
We work out the low-energy expansion of the anomalous $f_1(1285)\to\rho\gamma$ decay amplitude by using the Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model with $U(2)\times U(2)$ chiral symmetric four-quark interactions in the one-quark-loop approximation. The…
The exact form of the form-factor associated with a meson-photon-photon vertex is not known. Different suggestions exist, based on constraints from QCD and on recent experiments. Four different form-factors are studied in this article. We…
Having calculated the light-cone wave function of the pseudoscalar meson by using two equivalent and fully covariant methods, we generalize such methods to the valence Fock states of the vector meson in the light-cone formalism. We…
Motivated by the ongoing analysis by the BESIII Collaboration on the single-tagged $e^+e^-\to e^+e^- \eta \pi^+\pi^-$ reaction, we present a phenomenological study of the diphoton fusion to $\eta \pi^+ \pi^-$, focusing on the production…
We investigate semileptonic form factors of $D_{(s)}$ meson from a modified soft-wall 4-flavor holographic model. The model successfully reproduces the masses and decay constants of various mesons, including $\rho$, $K^*$, $D^*$, $D_s^*$,…
A method to determine masses, widths and coupling constants of vector mesons, like phi(1020), omega(782) and rho0(770) recurrences is defined. Starting from data on decay rates and cross sections for the processes: phi -> M_I gamma, phi ->…
