The scattering phase shift encodes a good amount of physical information which can be used to study resonances from scattering data. Among others, it can be used to calculate the continuum density of states and the collision time in a…
A pole in the D-pi S-wave analogous to the sigma and kappa is predicted at 2098 +- 40 - i(260 +- 40) MeV. The main objective of this paper is to provide formulae for fitting it to data.
We analyze the pipi production amplitudes in the excited Upsilon decay processes, Upsilon (2S) to Upsilon (1S)pi^+pi^-, Upsilon (3S) to Upsilon (1S)pi^+pi^- and Upsilon (3S) to Upsilon (2S)pi^+pi^-, and the pipi and KKbar production…
The underlying mixing of quark components of scalar mesons is probed in $\pi K$ scattering within a generalized linear sigma model that contains two scalar meson nonets and two pseudoscalar meson nonets (a quark-antiquark and a four-quark).…
The complementarity between Chiral Perturbation Theory and the Linear Sigma Model is exploited to study $\pi^0\pi^0$ production in $\phi$ radiative decays, where the effects of the $f_0(980)$ scalar resonance, and those of its more…
We analyse the B -> pi pi, pi K modes in the light of the most recent B-factory data, and obtain the following new results: (i) the B0 -> pi+ pi-, pi- K+ modes prefer gamma=(74+-6)deg, which - together with |V_ub/V_cb| - allows us to…
Elastic piN scattering and the world data of the family of reactions pi^- p --> eta n, K^0 Lambda$, K^0 Sigma^0, K^+ Sigma^-, and pi^+ p --> K^+ Sigma^+ are described simultaneously in an analytic, unitary, coupled-channel approach. SU(3)…
Present status of the study of the low energy $\pi\pi$ interaction is reviewed, including the recent results on reactions $\pi N \to\pi\pi N$ near threshold. Current experimental values of s-wave $\pi\pi$ scattering lengths are compared…
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…

The reaction pim p --> omega pim p, omega --> pip pim pi0 has been studied at 18 GeV/c. The omega pim mass spectrum is found to be dominated by the b1(1235). Partial Wave Analysis shows that b1 production is dominated by natural parity…
