Exclusive hadronic B-meson decays into two-body final states consisting of a light pseudoscalar or vector meson along with an eta or eta' meson are of great phenomenological interest. Their theoretical analysis involves decay mechanisms…
An analysis of data on pbar-p -> eta-eta-pizero-pizero is presented at pbar beam momenta 600 to 1940 MeV/c. There is evidence for an I = 1, J^PC = 2^-+ resonance in eta-eta-pizero with mass M = 1880 +- 20 MeV and width 255 +- 45 MeV,…

The mass spectrum and strong decays of the X(1870) and $\eta_2(1870)$ are analyzed. Our results indicate that X(1870) and $\eta_2(1870)$ are the two different resonances. The narrower X(1870) seems likely a good hybrid candidate. We support…
We discuss the effect of $\eta$--$\eta'$ mixing and of axial current anomalies on various decay processes. We describe the 2$\gamma$ decays of $\eta$ and $\eta'$, the radiative decays of low-lying vector mesons as well as the decays…

A detailed analysis to find a missing $\psi(4S)$ is made by utilizing the recent precise mesurements of the cross section for the process $e^+e^-\to \psi(2S)\pi^+\pi^-$ by Belle. Assuming three resonances $Y(4360)$, $Y(4660)$, and…
We propose a new global jet-finding algorithm for reconstructing two-prong objects like hadronic weak gauge bosons at a hadron collider. The selection of particles in a two-prong jet is required to maximize a $J_{E_T}^{\rm II}$ function,…
We consider a recently developed variational approach to the hydrodynamics of strongly coupled plasmas [D. Krimans and S. Putterman, Phys. Fluids 36, 037131 (2024)] and extend it to the Yukawa one-component plasma. This approach generalizes…
We calculate the semi-inclusive processes B $\rightarrow X_{s} \eta_c$ and relate it to B $\rightarrow X_{s} \psi$ in next to leading order QCD, and show how it can be used to determine an accurate value of $f_{\eta_{c}}$. The exclusive…
