Results on light scalar mesons in charmed particle decays studied by the CLEO Collaboration at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring are reviewed.
We have calculated the decay $\tau \rightarrow \nu \pi(K) \gamma$. We present the photon energy spectrum, the meson-photon invariant mass spectrum and the integrated rate as a function of a photon energy cut or an invariant mass cut. Both…
We recently presented a method of analyzing invariant-mass spectra of kaon pairs resulting from decay of $\phi$ mesons produced in high-energy heavy-ion collisions. It can be used to extract the shifts in the mass and the width ($\Delta M$…
Decays $D\to\pi^+\pi^-e^+\nu_e$ and $D_s\to\pi^+ \pi^-e^+\nu_e$ serve as probes that check the existence of constituent $q\bar q$ components in the wave functions of scalar mesons decaying into $\pi^+\pi^-$. There exists a great deal of…
Light bosons can be found in large classes of theories beyond the Standard Model. These light bosons may not be ruled out by current experiments and, indeed, may even provide an explanation for some anomalous experimental results. The…
Based on a sample of $(1310.6 \pm 10.5) \times 10^{6}$ $J/\psi$ events collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII storage ring, a partial wave analysis of the decay $J/\psi\rightarrow \gamma \phi \phi$ is performed in order…
The decay of photon by the influence of magnetic field is considered. It is shown here that if the photon energy is grater than 1 MeV then photon can decay electron positron pair, but if it remains below 1 MeV then photon decays into…
The low-energy S-wave component of the decay $D^+ \to K^- \pi^+ \pi^+$ is studied by means of a chiral SU(3)XSU(3) effective theory. As far as the primary vertex is concerned, we allow for the possibility of either direct production of…
We determine the mass and strength of the scalar meson from NN scattering data by renormalizing the One Boson Exchange Potential. This procedure provides a great insensitivity to the unknown short distance interaction making the vector…
We study the role of a possible nonet of light scalar mesons in the still interesting $\eta \to 3\pi$ decay process, with the primary motivation of learning more about the scalars themselves. The framework is a conventional non-linear…
In the SU(3) symmetry limit, the ratio $R\equiv\frac{{\cal B}(D^+\to f_0l^+\nu)+ {\cal B}(D^+\to \sigma l^+\nu)}{{\cal B}(D^+\to a_0^0l^+\nu)}$ is equal to 1 if the scalar mesons are $\bar qq$ states, while it is 3 if these mesons are…
We set up a general framework to describe $\pi\pi$ scattering below 1 GeV based on chiral low-energy expansion with possible spin-0 and 1 resonances. Partial wave amplitudes are obtained with the $N/D$ method, which satisfy unitarity,…
Using a sample of $4.48\times10^{8}$ $\psi(3686)$ events collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, we study the two-photon decays of the pseudoscalar mesons $\pi^0$, $\eta$, $\eta^\prime$, $\eta(1405)$, $\eta(1475)$,…
In combined 2- and 3-channel analyses of experimental data on the coupled processes $\pi\pi\to\pi\pi,K\bar{K},\eta\eta$ in the channel with $I^GJ^{PC}=0^+0^{++}$, various scenarios of these reactions(with different numbers of resonances)…
In this paper, we investigate symmetry breaking effects in strong and radiative decays of heavy mesons. We study $1/m_Q$ corrections within the heavy quark effective theory. These effects are studied in a covariant model for heavy mesons.…
The decays $\chi_{cJ}\to\gamma V$ ($V=\phi, \rho^0, \omega$) are studied with a sample of radiative $\psip\to\gamma\chi_{cJ}$ events in a sample of $(1.06\pm0.04)\times 10^{8} \psip$ events collected with the BESIII detector. The branching…
This talk is a brief account of recent developments on light scalar meson spectroscopy. I mostly focus on the major revision of the $\sigma$ or $f_0(500)$ meson in the Review of Particle Physics, driven by new data and the accummulation of…
Rare B decays permit stringent tests of the Standard Model and allow searches for new physics. Several rare radiative-decay studies of the B meson from the BaBar collaboration are described. So far no sign for new physics was discovered.
We study the radiative decays $D_{s1}(2460)\to\gamma D^{*}_{s0}(2317)$ and $D_{s1}(2460)\to \gamma D^0K^+/\gamma D^+K^0$ and argue that their simultaneous experimental measurement, or at least a constraint on the ratio of the corresponding…
Dispersion relations---a corollary of unitarity and analyticity---are among the few methods which can be employed to study low energy processes in QCD. In this work we critically revisit the calculation of decay widths of a hypothetical…
