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…
We perform the analysis of the preliminary data on $e^+e^-\to\phi\to\gamma f_0(980)\to\gamma\pi^0\pi^0$ reaction simultaneously with the data on $\pi\pi$ scattering and reactions $J/\psi\to\phi\pi^+\pi^-$ and…
We investigate the scalar resonances in the processes of $D^{0} \rightarrow \pi^{0}\pi^{0}\pi^{0}, \pi^{0}\pi^{0}\eta, \pi^{0}\eta\eta$ decays based on the chiral unitary approach for the final state interaction. We start from singly…
We consider the radiative transition $\phi \to f_0 \gamma$, which is a sensitive probe of the nature of the $f_0(980)$ particle. Using the QCD sum-rule technique, we estimate the branching ratio of such decay mode to be: ${\cal B}(\phi \to…
In the covariant level-classification scheme of hadrons proposed recently, the existence of "chiral particles", scalar and axial-vector mesons as the partners of the ground-state pseudo-scalar and vector mesons, respectively, were predicted…
In view of the recent experimental developments on the experimental side in the $\eta \to \pi^0 \gamma \gamma$ decay, and the fact that the Particle Data Group in the on line edition of 2007 reports sizable changes of the radiative decay…
Motivated by the near-threshold enhancement and the dip structure around 1~GeV in the $\pi^0\pi^0$ invariant mass distribution of the process $D^0\to \pi^0\pi^0\bar{K}^0$ observed by the CLEO Collaboration, we have investigated this process…
The study of radiative phi decays into scalar mesons, with subsequent decay into pi pi gamma, constitutes an important topic at the electron-positron collider DAPHNE. The interference of the respective amplitude with the one for pi+ pi-…
The extrapolation of the decay amplitudes of the pseudoscalar mesons into two photons from the soft meson limit where it is obtained from the axial-anomaly to the mass shell involves the contribution of the 0^ - continuum. These chiral…
We have studied the invariant mass distributions of the \pi\pi and K \bar{K} systems for invariant masses up to 1.2 GeV from the J/\Psi \to \phi \pi\pi(K\bar{K}) decays. The approach exploits the connection between these processes and the…
The measured rate for phi to gamma f0(980) appears to be larger than allowed on rather general grounds. We show that mixing between the f0(980) and a0(980), due to their dynamical interaction with the nearby KKbar thresholds, radically…
Outline: 1. Introduction, 2. Confinement, chiral dynamics and light scalar mesons, 3. Chiral shielding of \sigma(600), chiral constraints, \sigma(600), f_0(980) and their mixing in \pi\pi\to\pi\pi, \pi\pi\to K\bar K, and…
The Chiral Confining Lagrangian, based on the chiral theory with quark degrees of freedom, is used to study the spectroscopy of scalar mesons. The formalism does not contain arbitrary fitting parameters and takes into account infinite…
Corrections to $K\rightarrow\pi\pi\pi$ induced by vector and scalar meson exchange are investigated within chiral perturbation theory.
We study the line shapes of radiative $\phi$-decays with a direct coupling of the $\phi$ meson to the $f_{0}(980)$ and $a_{0}(980)$ scalar mesons. The latter couple via derivative interactions to $\pi_0 \pi_0$ and $\pi_0 \eta$,…
We study the eta' to eta pi pi decay within an effective chiral Lagrangian approach in which the lowest lying scalar meson candidates sigma(560) and kappa(900) together with the f0(980) and a0(980) are combined into a possible nonet. We…
It is shown that the scalar mesons $\sigma$, $f_0(980)$ and $a_0(980)$ as $t$-channel exchanges quantitatively solve the problem of diamagnetism and give an explanation of the large missing part of the electric polarizability $\alpha$…
In the two-quark model supposition for $f_0(980)$ and $K_0^{*}(1430)$, the branching ratios and the direct CP-violating asymmetries for decays $\bar{B}^0\to f_0(980)\rho^0(\omega,\phi), K^{*0}_0(1430)\rho^0(\omega), K^{*-}_0(1430)\rho^+$…
We evaluate radiative decays of $\rho$ and $\omega$ going to two neutral mesons, $\pi^{0} \pi^{0}$ and $\pi^{0} \eta$. We use the sequential vector decay mechanisms in addition to chiral loops and $\rho$-$\omega$ mixing. The chiral loops…
It is shown that the recent data on the $K^0_S K^+$ correlation in Pb-Pb interactions agree with the data on the $\gamma\gamma\to\eta\pi^0$ and $\phi\to\eta\pi^0\gamma$ reactions and support the four-quark model of the $a_0(980)$ meson. It…
