The pp -> ppK+K- reaction was measured below the phi threshold at a beam energy of 2.568 GeV using the COSY-ANKE magnetic spectrometer. By assuming that the four-body phase space is distorted only by the product of two-body final state…
Two coupled channel effects connected with kaon pair production in proton-proton collisions are discussed. (1) Although there is ample evidence that the antikaon is strongly attracted to the recoil protons in pp -> K+pK-p, residual effects…
The photoproduction processes gp-->a0(980)p and gp-->f0(980)p at energies close to threshold are considered. These reactions are studied in the \pi\pi p, \pi\eta p, and K-barK p channels. Production cross sections are estimated in different…
We determine elastic and coupled-channel amplitudes for isospin-1 meson-meson scattering in $P$-wave, by calculating correlation functions using lattice QCD with light quark masses such that $m_\pi = 236$ MeV in a cubic volume of $\sim (4…
The reactions pp\to d\pi^+\eta and pn\to d\pi^0\eta are of special interest for investigating the a_0(980) (J^P=0^+) resonance in the process NN \to da_0 \to d\pi\eta. We study some aspects of those reactions within a general formalism and…
We suggest that mixing between the f0(980) and a0(980), due to their dynamical interaction with the nearby KKbar thresholds, can give rise to a significantly enhanced production rate of a0(980) relative to a2(1320) in pp -> ps (eta pi0) pf…
We present a unified picture which studies simultaneously the gamma gamma-->pi^+ pi^-, pi^0 pi^0, K^+ K^-, K^0 bar{K}^0, pi^0 eta reactions up to about sqrt(s)=1.4 GeV reproducing the experimental cross sections. The present work implements…
Resonance production is one of the key observables to study the dynamics of high-energy collisions. In dense systems created in heavy nucleus-nucleus collisions, the properties of some of them (widths, masses, branching ratios) were…
Studies on the IJ=00 $\pi\pi$ and $K\bar K$ coupled--channel system are made using newly derived dispersion relations between the phase shifts and poles and cuts. It is found that the $\sigma$ resonance must be introduced to explain the…
We systematically reconsider, within an improved "analytic K-matrix model", the extraction of the sigma = f_0(600) and f_0(980) masses, widths and hadronic couplings using new Ke4 = K-->pi-pi e nu_e data on pi-pi phase shift below 390 MeV…
We investigate the resonant contributions in the decays $\bar{B}^0_{(s)} \to D^0 \pi^{+}\pi^{-}$, $\bar{B}^0_{(s)} \to D^0 K^{+}K^{-}$, and $\bar{B}^{0} \rightarrow D^{0} \pi^{0}\eta$ by considering the final state interactions within the…
The mass and width of the a0(980) have been independently determined from a nearly background free data sample and the coupling constants to the eta-pi and K-K-bar modes have been determined
We calculate the correlation functions for the $\bar K^0 p, \pi^+ \Sigma^0, \pi^0 \Sigma^+, \pi^+ \Lambda$, and $\eta \Sigma^+$ states, which in the chiral unitary approach predict an excited $\Sigma^*(1/2^-)$ state at the $\bar K N$…
We study the $D_s^+ \rightarrow \pi^+ \, \pi^+ \, \pi^-$ and $D_s^+ \rightarrow \pi^+ \, K^+ \, K^-$ decays adopting a mechanism in which the $D_s^+$ meson decays weakly into a $\pi^+$ and a $q\bar{q}$ component, which hadronizes into two…
We consider near-threshold $a_0(980)$-meson production in $\pi N$ and $NN$ collisions. An effective Lagrangian approach with one-pion exchange is applied to analyze different contributions to the cross section for different isospin…
Both sigma and kappa are well established from E791 data on D->3pi and Ds->Kpipi and BES II data on J/Psi -> omega pi pi and KKpipi. These fits are accurately consistent with pipi and Kpi elastic scattering when one allows for the Adler…
The BESIII Collaboration claimed that a new $a_{0}(1817)$ resonance was found in the recent results of the $D_{s}^{+} \rightarrow K_{S}^{0}K^{+}\pi^{0}$ decay. For this decay process, we perform a unitary amplitude to analyze the…
In the framework of the QCD factorization approach, we study the localized $CP$ violations of the $B^-\rightarrow K^- \pi^+\pi^-$ decay with and without $a_0^0(980)-f_0(980)$ mixing mechanism, respectively, and find that the localized $CP$…
Using the pole approach we determine the mass and width of the $f_0(980)$; in particular, we analyze the possibility that two nearby poles are associated to it. We restrict our analysis to a neighborhood of the resonance, using $\pi\pi$…
The $\gamma p \to K^+ \pi^0 \Lambda$ and $\gamma p \to K^+ \pi \Sigma $ reactions are studied in the kinematic region where the $\pi^0 \Lambda$(1116) and $\pi\Sigma$(1192) pairs originate dominantly from the decay of the $\Sigma$(1385) and…
