The process e+e- --> pi+ pi- pi0 gamma has been studied at a center-of-mass energy near the Y(4S) resonance using a 89.3 fb-1 data sample collected with the BaBar detector at the PEP-II collider. From the measured 3pi mass spectrum we have…
We report measurements of branching fractions for psi(2S) decays into omega pi pi, b1 pi,omega f2(1270),omega KK, omega p pbar, phi pi pi, phi f0(980),phi KK, and an upper limit for phi p pbar final states based on a data sample of 4 X 10^6…
We present branching fraction measurements for the decays B0 -> rho0 K*0, B0 -> f0 K*0, and B0 -> rho- K*+, where K* is an S-wave (K pi)_0* or a K*(892) meson; we also measure B0 -> f0 K_2*(1430)^0. For the K*(892) channels, we report…
We present a measurement of the decay amplitudes in B-->J/psi K^*(892) channels using 20.7 fb-1 of data collected at the Upsilon(4S) resonance with the BABAR detector at PEP-II. We measure a P-wave fraction R_perp = (16.0+/-3.2+/-1.4)% and…
An old calculation of the s-wave pi-pi scattering lengths is updated and supplemented with experimental data on the pi-pi s-wave phase shift. The results ma0 = .215 and ma2 = -.039 are in excellent agreement with those obtained from a…
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…
An analysis of the Dalitz plots for the decays $D^+\to K^-\pi^+\pi^+$ and $D^+\to\pi^-\pi^+\pi^+$ indicates that structure with significant phase variation is required in the s-wave $K^-\pi^+$ and $\pi^-\pi^+$ systems in the region below 1…
We present improved measurements of the branching fractions and CP-asymmetries in the B0 --> pi+ pi-, B0 --> pi0 pi0, and B+ --> rho+ rho0 decays, which impact the determination of alpha. We find S(pi+ pi-) = -0.68 +/- 0.10 +/- 0.03 C(pi+…
We calculate the coupling constants of the decay modes $1^{-+}\rightarrow\rho\pi, f_1\pi, b_1\pi, \eta\pi, \eta'\pi, a_1\pi, f_1\eta$ within the framework of the light-cone QCD sum rule. Then we calculate the partial width of these decay…
From a sample of 848 $\pm$ 44 $D_s^+ \to \pi^- \pi^+ \pi^+$ decays, we find $\Gamma(D_s^+ \to \pi^- \pi^+ \pi^+) / \Gamma(D_s^+ \to \phi \pi^+) = 0.245 \pm 0.028^{+0.019}_{-0.012} $. Using a Dalitz plot analysis of this three body decay, we…
We have studied the $\Omega_c \to \pi^+ (\pi^0, \eta) \pi \Xi^*$ decays, where the final $\pi \Xi^*$ comes from the decay of two resonances around the nominal $\Xi(1820)$, which are generated from the interaction of coupled channels made of…
The decay channel J/\psi->gamma omega omega, omega -> pi+ pi- pi0 is analyzed using a sample of 5.8x10^7 J/psi events collected with the BESII detector. The omega omega invariant mass distribution peaks at 1.76 GeV/c^2, just above the omega…
Based on a sample of $1.31 \times 10^9$ $J/\psi$ events collected with the BESIII detector, an amplitude analysis of the isospin-violating decays $\eta^\prime \rightarrow \pi^+\pi^-\pi^0$ and $\eta^\prime \rightarrow \pi^0\pi^0\pi^0$ is…
Belle data for the pi-pi mass spectrum in X(3872) -> pi-pi + JPsi are well fitted by rho + J/Psi with JPC = 1++, but are poorly fitted by the pi-pi S-wave. Formulae for partial wave amplitudes are given for all likely JPC and decay modes of…
One of the prime goals of the COMPASS experiment at CERN is the study of the light meson spectrum, with a particular emphasis on the search for exotic states. We present the first high-statistics partial-wave decomposition of the…
We generalize our previous work on \pi\pi scattering to K\pi scattering, and re-analyze the experiment data of K\pi scattering below 1.6 GeV. Without any free parameter, we explain K\pi I=3/2 S-wave phase shift very well by using t-channel…
The subject of this work is the analysis of hadronic decays of the exotic meson $\pi_{1}$ in a fully relativistic formalism, and comparison with the nonrelativistic results. The relativistic spin wave functions of mesons and hybrids are…
We present a theoretical study of the $\gamma\gamma^{*} \to \pi^+\pi^-, \pi^0\pi^0$ processes from the threshold through the $f_2(1270)$ region in the $\pi\pi$ invariant mass. We adopt the Omn\`es representation in order to account for…
\pspto \rho\pi is observed for the fisrt time in a data sample of 14M \psp decays collected by the BESII detector at BEPC. The branching fraction is measured to be \BR(pspto\rho\pi)=(5.1+-0.7+-0.8)10-5, where the first error is statistical…
A recent analysis of data on the two photon production of the $\eta_c$ and its decay to $K(K\pi)$ has determined the $K\pi$ $S$-wave amplitude in a "model-independent" way assuming primarily that the additional kaon is a spectator in this…
