With the primary motivation of probing the quark substructure of scalar mesons, a generalized linear sigma model for the lowest and the next-to-lowest scalar and pseudoscalar mesons is employed to investigate several semi-leptonic decays of…
The scalar -- isoscalar pi-pi phase shifts are analysed using a separable potential model of three coupled channels (pipi, KK and an effective 2pi2pi system). Model parameters are fitted to two sets of solutions obtained in a recent…
We review some recent theoretical results on radiative rare kaon decays. Particular attention is devoted to the channels $K\to \pi l\bar{% l}$ and $K\to \pi \pi \gamma$, where we are (or might be) able to extract the short distance…
We perform the first lattice QCD study on the radiative decay of the scalar glueball to the vector meson $\phi$ in the quenched approximation. The calculations are carried out on three gauge ensembles with different lattice spacings, which…
We study the decay $B^\pm\to \phi K^{\ast\pm}$, followed by the decay of the outgoing vector mesons into two pseudoscalars. The analysis of angular distributions of the decay products is shown to provide useful information about the…

Based on gauge invariance, we show that the new threshold phenomenon is discovered in the \phi radiative decays \phi\to\gamma a0\to\gamma\pi0\eta and \phi\to\gamma f0\to\gamma\pi0\pi0. This enables to conclude that production of the…

The light scalar mesons in a variety of approaches are briefly reviewed, as well as their description in the Resonance-Spectrum Expansion and related coupled-channel formalisms. A recent multichannel modelling of the light scalars is…
We analyze the possibility of experimental investigation of new low-energy relations between the values of resonance masses in the meson form factors and the differential rate of radiative kaon decay $K^+\to \pi^+ e^+e^-(\mu^+\mu^- )$ at…
The interactions between the f_0(980) and a_0(980) scalar resonances and the lightest pseudoscalar mesons are studied. We first obtain the interacting kernels, without including any ad hoc free parameter, because the lightest scalar…
Radiative decays of hadronic states provide an essential source of information that can facilitate deciphering their nature and properties. However, a lot of confusion concerning radiative decays of hadronic molecules and their…
We propose a new search for light scalar singlets in rare meson decays. For tiny interactions, the scalar is long-lived at detector scales and decays into displaced pairs of leptons or light mesons. We show that Belle II has a remarkable…
We study the role of the scalar resonances f0(1370), f0(1500) and f0(1710) in the strong and radiative three-body decays of J/psi with J/psi to V + P P (gamma gamma) and J/psi to gamma + P P (V V), where P (V) denotes a pseudoscalar…
We construct a relativistic $^3P_0$ wavefunction for scalar mesons within the framework of light-front quark model(LFQM). This scalar wavefunction is used to perform relativistic calculations of absolute widths for the radiative decay…
We study interference patterns in the $\phi\to(\gamma a_0+\pi^0\rho)\to\gamma\pi\eta$ and $\phi\to(\gamma f_0+\pi^0\rho)\to\gamma \pi^0\pi^0$ reactions. Taking into account the interference, we fit the experimental data and show that the…
