We propose a phenomenological model of pseudo scalar mesons to describe charged-current weak decays of heavy-light mesons. The approach combines chiral symmetry in the light sector with heavy-quark flavor symmetry, while…
We assess the importance of final state interactions in $D^+ \rar K^- \p^+ \p^+$, stressing the consistency between two- and three-body interactions. The basic building block in the calculation is a $K\pi$ amplitude based on unitarized…
We give best covariant amplitude decompositions for two-body decay processes involving ground state hadrons ($0^-, 1^-, {1/2}^+, {3/2}^+$) and show how these are simply related to helicity amplitudes. After discussing how electromagnetic…
Based on the $(2712.4\pm14.4)\times 10^{6}$ $\psi(3686)$ events collected with the BESIII detector, we present a high-precision study of the $\pi^+\pi^-$ mass spectrum in $\psi(3686)\rightarrow\pi^{+}\pi^{-}J/\psi$ decays. A clear resonance…
A short review of our recent work on amplitude parametrizations of three-body hadronic weak $B$ and $D$ decays is presented. The final states are here composed of three light mesons, namely the various charge $\pi\pi\pi$, $K\pi\pi$ and…
We propose a phenomenological two component model describing the decay amplitude of the process $D_s^{+} \ra 3 \pi$, whose rate has been found surprisingly large. The first component is a constant background $F_{NR}$, and the second one is…
The strong, electromagnetic and mixed strong-electromagnetic amplitudes of the $\psi(2S)$ decays into baryon-anti-baryon pairs have been obtained by exploiting all available data sets in the framework of an effective Lagrangian model. We…
We study the two-body decays of mesons using the covariant helicity formalism. In particular, we show how the partial wave analysis of decays constrains the interacting terms entering the Lagrangian describing the decays of mesons with…
We provide results for the open-flavor strong decays of strange and non-strange baryons into a baryon-vector/pseudoscalar meson pair. The decay amplitudes are computed in the $^3P_0$ pair-creation model, where $s\bar{s}$ pair-creation…
It is proposed that meson resonances are linear combinations of q-qbar and meson-meson (MM); baryon resonances are combinations of qqq and meson-baryon (MB). Mixing between these combinations arises via decays of confined states to…

We develop a novel approach to chiral meson-baryon dynamics incorporating unitarity constraints and explicit resonance fields. It is based on the most general structure of any pion-nucleon partial wave amplitude neglecting the unphysical…
In this work we extend our formalism to study meson-baryon interactions by including $s$- and $u$-channel diagrams for pseudoscalar-baryon systems. We study the coupled systems with strangeness $-1$ and focus on studying the isospin-1…
In this talk we show recent developments on few body systems involving mesons. We report on an approach to Faddeev equations using chiral unitary dynamics, where an explicit cancellation of the two body off shell amplitude with three body…
Initiated by the recent observation of a flattened lineshape of $IJ^{PC}=00^{-+}$ around $1.4\sim 1.5$ GeV in the $K_S K_S \pi^0$ invariant mass spectrum by BESIII, we make a systematic partial wave analysis of $J/\psi \to\gamma\eta_X\to…
We study the two-body decay of mesons using the covariant helicity formalism. We find that to explain the ratio of partials wave amplitudes (PWAs) of the decay, the Lagrangian must include derivative interactions in addition to contact…
A separable potential model of three coupled channels (pion-pion, kaon-antikaon and an effective four pion) has been constructed and applied in the analysis of the isoscalar S-wave pion-pion and kaon-antikaon phase shifts and inelasticities…
New solutions on the scalar -- isoscalar $\pi\pi$ phase shifts are analysed together with previous $K\bar{K}$ results using a separable potential model of three coupled channels ($\pi\pi$, $K\bar{K}$ and an effective $2\pi 2\pi$ system).…
We report four $\Sigma$'s and three $\Lambda$'s, in the 1500 - 1800 MeV region, as two meson - one baryon S-wave $(1/2)^+$ resonances. We solve Faddeev equations in the coupled channel approach. The invariant mass of one of the meson-baryon…
We study the vector and scalar meson-meson amplitudes up to \sqrt{s}\lesssim 1.4 GeV and their associated spectroscopy. The study has been done considering jointly the N/D method, Chiral Symmetry and implications from large N_c QCD. The N/D…
