The production and decay of vector mesons ($\rho, \omega$) in $pA$ reactions at COSY energies is studied with particular emphasis on their in-medium spectral functions. It is explored within transport calculations, if hadronic in-medium…

The decays of a light scalar meson into a vector meson and a photon ($S\to V\gamma)$ are evaluated in the tetraquark and quarkonium assignments of the scalar states. A link with the radiative decays $\phi\to S\gamma$ is established:…
We study theoretically the resonant structure of the double Cabibbo suppressed $D^+\to K^- K^+K^+$ decay. We start from an elementary production diagram, considered subleading in previous approaches, which cannot produce a final $K^- K^+$…
Corrections to $K_{L}^{0}\rightarrow \pi^{0} \gamma \gamma$ decay induced by scalar meson exchange are studied within chiral perturbation theory. In spite of bad knowledge of scalar-mesons parameters, the calculated branching ratio can be…
We study the radiative $\rho^0\to \pi^+\pi^-\gamma$ and $\rho^0\to \pi^0\pi^0\gamma$ decays and we calculate their branching ratios using a phenomenological approach by adding to the amplitude calculated within the framework of chiral…
We investigate the "family" relationship of a possible scalar nonet composed of the a_0(980), the f_0(980) and the \sigma and \kappa type states found in recent treatments of \pi\pi and \pi K scattering. We work in the effective Lagrangian…
The assignments of the isoscalar scalar mesons f0(980), f0(1370), and f0(1500) in terms of their qqbar substructure is still a matter of heated dispute. Here we employ the weak and electromagnetic decays D(s)(+) to f0+pi(+) and f0…
We examine the importance of resonances for the non-leptonic hyperon decays in the framework of chiral perturbation theory. Lower lying resonances are included into the effective theory. Integrating out the heavy degrees of freedom in the…
We investigate the isospin-violating mixing of the light scalar mesons a0(980) and f0(980) within the unitarized chiral approach. Isospin-violating effects are considered to leading order in the quark mass differences and electromagnetism.…
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…
A review on the requirements of chiral symmetry on effective quark models is presented. The connection between the pion Salpeter amplitude and the mass gap equation is discussed. Hadronic scattering, notably, $\pi\pi$ scattering is…

We use the Vector formulation to evaluate vector and axial-vector exchange contributions to the O(p^4) weak Chiral Lagrangian. We recover in this framework the bulk of the contributions found previously by Ecker et al. in the antisymmetric…
We study whether the nonmonotonic behavior found in the differential cross section of the phi-meson photoproduction near threshold can be described by a resonance. Namely, we add a resonance to a model consisting of Pomeron and (pi,eta)…
We evaluate the two pion decay of the Roper resonance in a model where explicit re-scattering of the two final pions is accounted for by the use of unitarized chiral perturbation theory. Our model does not include an explicit $\epsilon$ or…
We estimate the di-photon coupling of $f_0(600)$, $f_0(980)$ and $f_2(1270)$ resonances in a coupled channel dispersive approach. The $f_0(600)$ di-photon coupling is also reinvestigated using a single channel $T$ matrix for $\pi\pi$…
In the present work, we investigate the decays of $B^{0}_{s} \rightarrow \phi\pi^{+}\pi^{-}$ and $B^{0} \rightarrow \phi\pi^{+}\pi^{-}$ with the final state interactions based on the chiral unitary approach. In the final state interactions…
\pi and \eta decay modes of light baryon resonances are investigated within a chiral quark model whose hyperfine interaction is based on Goldstone-boson exchange. For the decay mechanism a modified version of the 3P0 model is employed. Our…
The decay widths \phi \to \gamma f_0(980) and \phi \to \gamma a_0(980) are calculated taking into account the finite widths of the scalar resonances f_0(980) and a_0(980). The latter are shown to be essential in order to obtain meaningful…
