We consider the rare decay $\eta\to\pi^0\pi^0\gamma\gamma$ and calculate the non-resonant contribution to the amplitude to one loop in Chiral Perturbation Theory. We display our result as both a diphoton energy spectrum and a partial decay…

We reexamine the $\omega \to \pi^{0} \pi^{0} \gamma $ decay, adding the effect of $\omega-\rho$ mixing to the amplitude calculated with the aid of chiral perturbation theory and vector meson dominance. We predict the neutral decay to occur…

We report on recent results on the decay of the phi into pi^+ pi^- and phi radiative decays into pi^0 pi^0 gamma and pi^0 eta gamma, which require the consideration of the final state interaction of a pair of mesons in a region inaccessible…

It is pointed out that the radiative decays of a $\phi$ meson, $\phirho$ and $\phiom$, receive dominant contributions from the pseudoscalar ($P = \eta, \eta^{'}$) exchanges. Using the vector meson dominance model, we find that $B (\phirho)…

Using the close relationship between the low--energy constants of chiral perturbation theory and the chiral invariant interactions of the vector meson resonances with the pseudoscalar mesons, we investigate the process $\rho^0 \ra \pi^+…

The process eta -> pi0 pi0 gamma gamma is discussed in Chiral Perturbation Theory (ChPT) extending two recent analyses. Special attention is devoted to one-loop corrections, eta-eta' mixing effects and vector-meson dominance of ChPT…

We perform a thorough analysis of the VP\gamma(\gamma*) and P\gamma\gamma(\gamma*) decays in the resonance chiral theory, where V stand for the vector resonances \rho, K*, \omega, \phi, P stand for \pi, K, \eta, \eta' and \gamma*…

A prediction for the contributions of chiral loops and the L$\sigma$M model to the radiative $\phi\to\pi^0\eta\gamma$ decay mode is presented. The L$\sigma$M is used as an appropriate framework for describing the pole effects of the…

The decays $\rho^0\to 2\pi^+2\pi^-$ and $\rho^0\to 2\pi^0\pi^+\pi^-$ are studied using various effective Lagrangians for $\pi$ and $\rho$ (and in some cases $a_1$) mesons, all of which respect the approximate chiral symmetry of the strong…

A consistent description of $\sigma(500)$ meson effects in $\rho^0\to\pi^0\pi^0\gamma$ and $\pi^+\pi^-\gamma$ decays is proposed in terms of reasonably simple amplitudes which reproduce the expected chiral-loop behaviour for large…

The $\gamma\gamma \to \pi^0 \pi^0 \pi^0$ and $\gamma\gamma \to \pi^+ \pi^- \pi^0$ amplitudes are discussed in the general context of Chiral Perturbation Theory (ChPT) to $O(p^6)$. Chiral loops are found to play a major role. This makes…

We examine the radiative omega pi0etagamma and rho pi0etagamma decays in a phenomenological framework. We consider the VMD mechanism, chiral loops, intermediate a0-meson and rho−omega mixing. We find the values of the decay width…

The interactions of $\rho$, $K^*$, $\phi$ and $\omega$ vector-mesons with low-momentum $\pi$, $K$ and $\eta$ pseudoscalar mesons are constrained by chiral symmetry. We derive a heavy vector-meson chiral Lagrangian in which the vector mesons…

The extracted value for the $g^{eff}_{\omega \rho\pi}$ effective coupling from experimental data, considering only the $\rho$ meson, resumes not only the $\rho$ meson effect but also all its additional radial excitation modes. By explicitly…

The scalar contributions to the radiative decays of light vector mesons into a pair of neutral pseudoscalars, $V\to P^0P^0\gamma$, are studied within the framework of the Linear Sigma Model. This model has the advantage of incorporating not…

The $\phi \to \omega \pi^0$ decay is studied using the method of phenomenological chiral Lagrangians. It is shown that the weak hadronic current between $\omega$-and $\pi^0$ -mesons is equal to zero and this decay channel proceeds only due…
