We review the physics of purely leptonic decays of $\pi^\pm$, $K^\pm$, $D^{\pm}$, $D_s^\pm$, and $B^\pm$ pseudoscalar mesons. The measured decay rates are related to the product of the relevant weak-interaction-based CKM matrix element of…

Recent experimental data on space- and time-like form factors of the nucleon are analyzed in terms of a two-component model with a quark-like intrinsics structure and a meson cloud. A good overall agreement is found for all electromagnetic…
Analysis of the isoscalar S- and D-waves of processes pi-pi-> pi-pi, K-Kbar, eta-eta is carried out aimed at studying the status and QCD nature of scalar and tensor mesons below 2 GeV and 2.3 GeV, respectively. Assignment of these mesons to…

In this work the analysis of mixing parameters of the system involving eta, eta' mesons and some third massive state G is carried out. We use the generalized mixing scheme with three angles. The framework of the dispersive approach to…
We construct a formalism which describes the resonances decaying into four pseudoscalar meson final states. This method is fully covariant and can be directly applied for the partial-wave analysis of high statistical data. Two topologies of…
Point-form relativistic quantum mechanics is applied to elastic electron-deuteron scattering. The deuteron is modeled using relativistic interactions that are scattering-equivalent to the nonrelativistic Argonne $v_{18}$ and Reid '93…
We analyze the rare semileptonic $B_s \to (\eta, \eta') l^+ l^-$, $(l=e, \mu, \tau)$ and $B_s \to (\eta, \eta') \nu \bar{\nu}$ transitions probing the $\bar s s$ content of the $\eta$ and $\eta'$ mesons via three--point QCD sum rules. We…
A review of the present state of investigations of the pseudospin-electron model (PEM), which is used in the theory of strongly correlated electron systems, is given. The model is used to describe the systems with the locally anharmonic…
We revisit $F_\pi(Q^2)$ and $F_{P\gamma}(Q^2)$, $P=\pi,\eta,\eta'$, making use of the local-duality (LD) version of QCD sum rules. We give arguments, that the LD sum rule provides reliable predictions for these form factors at $Q^2 \ge 5-6$…
We document that p(gamma,e+e-)p measurements will yield new, important information about the off-shell time-like nucleon form factors, especially in the phi meson region (q^2 = M^2_{phi}) governing the phi N couplings g^{V,T}_{\phi N N}.…
The radiative decays of the pseudoscalar mesons $P=(\pi^0,\eta,\eta')$ are of special interest as they provide an experimental window on the electromagnetic and colour chiral $U_A(1)$ anomalies. $\pi^0\to\gamma\gamma$ is well described by…
We perform a complete one-loop calculation of meson-meson scattering, and of the scalar and pseudoscalar form factors in U(3) chiral perturbation theory with the inclusion of explicit resonance fields. This effective field theory takes into…
In the analysis a status and parameters of the scalar, vector, and tensor mesonic resonances are obtained and compared with other results. Possible classification of the resonance states in terms of the SU(3) multiplets is discussed.
Here we present a simple stochastic threshold model consisting of a deterministic slowly decaying term and a fast stochastic noise term. The process shows a pseudo-resonance, in the sense that for small and large intensities of the noise…
We summarise applications of Dyson-Schwinger equations to the theory and phenomenology of hadrons. Some exact results for pseudoscalar mesons are highlighted with details relating to the U_A(1) problem. We describe inferences from the gap…
At leading-twist accuracy the form factors for the transitions from a virtual photon to the $\eta$ or $\eta'$ can be expanded into a power series of the variable $\omega$, being related to the difference of two photon virtualities. The…
