Experiments that study the hadronic and electromagnetic production of the pseudoscalar mesons -- pions, etas and kaons, contribute to our knowledge of the properties of baryon and hyperon resonances. Fixed-target programs at hadronic…
Motivated by the large branching ratios observed for the process $B\to\eta^{\prime}K$, we examine critically all the ingredients that go into estimates of B decays into two light pseudoscalars. Within factorization approximation, we examine…
New precise experimental information on $\sigma_{tot}(e^+e^- \to \pi^+ \pi^-)$ is transferred into the space-like region, by taking advantage of the analyticity. As a result a rigorous pion electromagnetic form factor behavior is obtained.…

Parameterization of the form factors of $f_1 (1285)$ meson is proposed. This parameterization is consistent with the available experimental data on the cross sections of $f_1 (1285)$ meson production in the processes $e^+e^- \to f_1 (1285)$…
