In this work, we study systems composed of a $\rho/\omega$ and $B^*$ meson pair. We find three bound states in isospin, spin-parity channels $(1/2, 0^+)$, $(1/2, 1^+)$ and $(1/2, 2^+)$. The state with $J=2$ can be a good candidate for the…
Analyses of the J/{\psi} {\pi}+ {\pi}- decay channel of the X(3872) resonance by the CDF, Belle, and LHCb collaborations have established its J^{PC} quantum numbers as 1^{++}. An analysis of the \pi+ \pi- \pi 0 invariant mass distribution…
We present a theoretical estimate for the cross-section of exclusive $\rho^+\rho^-$ and $\rho^0\rho^0$-meson production in two photon collisions when one of the initial photons is highly virtual. We focus on the discussion of the twist 4…
The Two-Rotor Model predicts two levels above the Scissors Modes with degenerate intrinsic energy. They have $J^{\pi}= 0^+,2^+$ and are referred to as overtones. Their energy is below threshold for nucleon emission, which should make them…
Recent J = 0 (para) baryonium interpretations of the BES narrow resonance data near the e^-e^+ -> p anti-p threshold suggests the existance of ortho baryonium. To assist future searches we study J = 1 states, especially vector meson…
This study revisits the issue of the extraction of estimates for the masses and for the partial decay widths to two pions of the scalar-isoscalar $I^G\,(J^{PC}) = 0^+\,(0^{++})$ and vector-isovector $I^G\,(J^{PC}) = 1^+\,(1^{--})$ mesons…
Mesonic resonances are generally observed in data as narrow, moderately broad, or wide peaks in scattering or production processes. In the eyes of nearly all experimentalists, any suchlike bump is a true resonance as soon as its statistical…
As the lightest isovector vector meson, the $\rho$ meson is an important object for investigating the structure of resonant states in strong interactions. Owing to its strong coupling to the $\pi\pi$ channel and its large decay width, the…
Quark models taking into account the dynamical effects of hadronic decay often produce very different predictions for mass shifts in the hadron spectrum. The consequences for meson spectroscopy can be dramatic and completely obscure the…
The unflavored light meson families, namely $\omega_2$, $\rho_2$, and $\phi_2$, are studied systematically by investigating the spectrum and the two-body strong decays allowed by Okubo-Zweig-Iizuka rule. Including the four experimentally…
In this paper, we study the spectrum and decay behavior of $5^{++}$ meson family which is still missing in experiment. By the modified Godfrey-Isgur model with a color screening effect, we obtain the mass spectrum of $a_5$, $f_5$ and…
The hadronic charmless B decays into a scalar meson and a vector meson are studied within the framework of QCD factorization. The main results are: (i) The decay rates for the $f_0(980)K^{*-}$ and $f_0(980)\ov K^{*0}$ modes depend on the…
We present a lattice QCD calculation of the characteristics of the $\rho$ meson decay. The study is carried out on spatially asymmetric boxes using nHYP-smeared clover fermions in the quenched approximation. The resonance mass and coupling…
Motivated by the planned measurements of the time-like electromagnetic proton form factors an exploratory study of the time-like electromagnetic pion form factor is presented in a formalism which describes mesons as Poincar\'e-invariant…
We show that the lightest pseudotensor mesons J^{PC}=2^-+ can be regarded as molecules made of a pseudoscalar (P) 0^-+ and a tensor 2^++ meson, where the latter is itself made of two vector (V) mesons. The idea stems from the fact that the…
Under the assignment of $a_0(1450)$ as the ground isovector scalar meson, the strong decays of $a_0(1950)$ and $a_0(2020)$ are evaluated in the $^3P_0$ model. Our calculations suggest that $a_0(1950)$ and $a_0(2020)$ can be regarded as the…
Conceivable explanations of Belle-II measurements of a (surprising) excess of missing-energy decays of the $B$ meson to the $K$ meson not covered by standard-model neutrino-antineutrino pairs might be offered by additional contributions of…
We study the $\rho$ and $\omega$ meson contribution to the radiative decays $X(3872)\rightarrow J/\psi \pi \gamma$ and $X(3872)\rightarrow J/\psi \pi\pi \gamma$. The $X(3872)\rightarrow J/\psi \pi \gamma$ is dominated by the $\omega$ meson.…
We report on the results of a novel partial-wave analysis based on $50\cdot 10^6$ events from the reaction $\pi^- + p \to \pi^-\pi-^\pi^+ + p_\text{recoil}$ at 190 $\text{GeV/c}$ incoming beam momentum using the COMPASS spectrometer. A…
We propose to study the multiparticle configurations of isovector scalar mesons, saying $a_0(980)$ and $a_0(1450)$, in the charmless three-body $B$ decays by considering the width effects. Two scenarios of $a_0$ configurations are assumed,…
