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…
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 measured, with the KLOE detector, the spectrum of pi+pi- invariant mass in a sample of 6.7 x 10^5 e+e- --> pi+pi-g events with the photon at large polar angle (theta_g>45^o) at a centre of mass energy sqrt(s) around the phi mass. We…
Calculations of eta->pi^0 pi^0 gamma gamma decay in generalized chiral perturbation theory are presented. Tree level and some of next-to-leading corrections are involved. Sensitivity to the deviations from the standard chiral perturbation…
Radiative phi decays give us an excellent opportunity to study scalar and pseudoscalar meson below 1 GeV. In this paper, results from different experiments are reviewed and compared.
We work out the phenomenology of untagged time-dependent analysis with radiative $D^0$-decays into CP eigenstates, which allows to probe the photon polarization by means of the charm mesons' finite width difference. We show that $D^0 \to…
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…
We investigate the rare radiative eta decay modes $\eta\to\pi^+\pi^-\gamma\gamma$ and $\eta\to\pi^0\pi^0\gamma\gamma$ within the framework of chiral perturbation theory at $O(p^4)$. We present photon spectra and partial decay rates for both…
We calculate the $00^{++}$-wave two-meson spectra for the reactions $\gamma\gamma\to\pi^0\pi^0$, $\gamma\gamma\to\pi^+\pi^-$, $\gamma\gamma\to K^0\bar K^0$ and $\gamma\gamma\to K^+ K^-$ on the basis of: (i) the results of the $K$-matrix…
In this article, we study the vertexes $\Omega_Q^*\Omega_Q \phi$ with the light-cone QCD sum rules, then assume the vector meson dominance of the intermediate $\phi(1020)$, and calculate the radiative decays $\Omega_Q^*\to \Omega_Q \gamma$.
The prediction of the cross section $\sigma(\gamma\gamma^*(Q^2)\to \eta\pi^0)$ based on the simultaneous description of the Belle data on the $\gamma\gamma\to \eta\pi^0$ reaction and the KLOE data on the $\phi\to\eta\pi^0\gamma$ decay is…
We describe two recent theoretical calculations of the $B \to K^* \gamma$ decay. The first method is based on an effective lagrangian incorporating chiral symmetry for the light degrees of freedom and the heavy quark spin-flavor symmetries…
We consider the scalar form factor in $\tau \to K\pi \nu_\tau$ decays. It receives contributions both from the scalar resonance $K_0^*(1430)$ and from the scalar projection of off-shell vector resonances. We construct a model for the…
We reanalyse the gamma-gamma scattering data and conclude that in the mass region below 1 GeV the cross section for gamma-gamma to pi^0-pi^0 can be largely explained by the one pion exchange process with pi-pi rescattering. The radiative…
The potentialities of the production of the $a_0(980)$ and $f_0(980)$ mesons in the $\phi$ radiative decays are considered.
Partial widths of the radiative decays $\phi(1020)\to\gamma f_0(980)$, $\gamma\eta$, $\gamma\eta'$, $\gamma\pi^0$ and $f_0(980)\to\gamma\gamma$ are calculated assuming all mesons under consideration to be $q\bar q$ states: $\phi(1020)$ is…
The radiative decays of the phi meson are known to be a good source of information about the a0(980) and f0(980) scalar mesons. We discuss these decays starting from a non-linear model Lagrangian which maintains the (broken) chiral symmetry…
The theoretical analysis of the $\gamma\gamma \to \pi^0\eta$ process is presented within the energy range up to 1.4 GeV. The $S$-wave resonance $a_0(980)$ is described involving the coupled channel dispersive framework and the $D$-wave…
The time-dependent analysis of the decays $\Lambda_b\to \Lambda +D^0(t)$ and $\Lambda_b\to \Lambda +\bar{D}^0(t)$ is discussed. The effect of particle mixing due to time evolution of $D^0$ and $\bar{D}^0$ on the observables for these decays…
We estimate the rates for radiative transitions of the lightest scalar mesons f_0(980) and a_0(980) to the vector mesons rho and omega. We argue that measurements of the radiative decays of those scalar mesons can provide important new…
