This contribution contains the first numerical computation of the complete set of relativistic corrections of relative order $v^{2}$ for electric dipole (E1) transitions in heavy quarkonium; in particular, for the processes $\chi_{bJ}(1P)…
The analysis of the $\pi\gamma$ transition form factor provides severe constraints on the pion's wave function. This information is used to examine charmonium decays into two pions critically. It will be argued that the standard…
Charmonium is an attractive system for the application of lattice QCD methods. While the sub-threshold spectrum has been considered in some detail in previous works, it is only very recently that excited and higher-spin states and further…
In this work we study the radiative decays of heavy-light quarkonia through M1 and E1 transitions, that involve quark-triangle diagrams with two hadron vertices, and are difficult to evaluate in BSE-CIA. We have expressed the transition…
We study the radiative pion decay of $\pi ^{+} \to e^{+}\nu_{e}\gamma$ in the chiral perturbation theory (ChPT) and light front quark model (LFQM). The vector and axial-vector hadronic form factors ($F_{V,A}$) for the $\pi\to\gamma$…
Stimulated by the experimental observation, made by the E760 Collaboration at Fermilab, of the $^1\!P_1$ state of charmonium resonantly formed in $p\,\bar p$ annihilation, we perform a calculation of the decay width for the $^1\!P_1\to…
We have studied the dominant radiative transitions of the charmonium $S$-and $P$-wave states within the covariant confined quark model. The gauge invariant leading-order transition amplitudes have been expressed by using either the…
In this report I review some results on the charmonium and light hadron spectroscopy mainly from BESIII and Belle experiments. For the charmonium, the contents include the observation of $\psi(4040)/\psi(4160) \to \eta \jpsi$, the…
Using 9.0 $\rm fb^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ collision data collected at center-of-mass energies from 4.178 to 4.278 GeV with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, we perform the first search for the radiative transition…
The spin-singlet P-wave state of charmonium, hc(1P1), has been observed in the decay psi(2S) -> pi0 hc followed by hc -> gamma etac. Inclusive and exclusive analyses of the M(hc) spectrum have been performed. Two complementary inclusive…
Our understanding of high-lying states within the charmonium family remains incomplete, particularly in light of recent observations of charmonium states at energies around 4 GeV. In this study, we investigate the spectroscopic properties…
We study charmonia in electromagnetic and rotational fields in the frame of a potential model. Different from the temperature field which is isotropic and leads to the well-known charmonium dissociation, the electromagnetic and rotational…
We calculate the contributions from QED processes involving two virtual photons to the cross sections for e^+ e^- annihilation into two charmonium states with the same C-parity. Generically, the cross sections are three orders of magnitude…
We discuss the $\mbox{M1}$ radiative transitions $D^*\rightarrow D\gamma$, $D_{s}^*\rightarrow D_s\gamma$, $B^*\rightarrow B\gamma$, and $B^*_{s}\rightarrow B_s\gamma$. A relativistic potential model is proposed. The corresponding…
Recent results on Charmonium decays are reviewed which includes two-, three- and four-body decays of $\chi_{cJ}$ states, observations of Y(4260) through $\pi\pi J/\psi$ transitions, precise measurements of $M(D^0)$, $M(\eta)$ as well as…
We study the properties of charmonium in a strongly coupled QCD-like plasma at finite momentum. As a basis for this study, a "bottom-up" holographic model is used which has been previously shown to reproduce charmonium phenomenology in…
The decay rates of P-wave heavy quarkonia to light hadrons are presented to leading order in $v^2$ and next-to-leading order in $\alpha_s$. They include contributions from both the color-singlet component and the color-octet component of…
In this paper, we present a new analysis on the $P$-wave charmonium annihilation into two photons up to next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) QCD corrections by using the principle of maximum conformality (PMC). The conventional perturbative…
Recent theoretical progress in calculations of the spectrum and decays of charmonium is reviewed. Traditionally, our understanding of charmonium was based on potential models. This is now being replaced by first principles.
We investigate the mass spectrum and electromagnetic processes of charmonium system with the nonperturbative treatment for the spin-dependent potentials, comparing the pure scalar and scalar-vector mixing linear confining potentials. It is…
