The BESIII collaboration has recently observed a resonant structure $Y(4500)$ in $e^{+}e^{-}\to J/\psi K^{+}K^{-}$, whose origin remains unresolved. In this study, we analyze the cross section line shape of $e^{+}e^{-}\to J/\psi K^{+}K^{-}$…
Effects of strong final-state interactions in the superscaling properties of neutral-current quasielastic neutrino cross sections are investigated using the Relativistic Impulse Approximation as guidance. First- and second-kind scaling are…
We show that the long known puzzling branching ratios of open-charm decays in electron-positron annihilation can be reasonably described with a simple form factor, which strongly suppresses open channels far above threshold. Application to…
A Regge model calculation relates the strong phase in $B \to DK$ to that in $B\to D\pi$. This provides a significant test of a hadronic picture of final state interactions in B decays.
We demonstrate that the dip observed near the total energy of 3872 MeV in the recent cross section data from the BESIII Collaboration for $e^+e^-\to J/\psi\pi^+\pi^- $ admits a natural explanation as a coupled-channel effect: it is a…
We comment on the quantum numbers and decay channels of the possible proton antiproton bound state observed by BES Collaboration. Based on the general symmetry consideration and available experimental information, we conclude that the…
We search for the decay B0 -> rho0rho0 and other possible charmless modes with a pi+pi-pi+pi- final state, including B0 -> rho0f0(980), B0 -> f0(980)f0(980), B0 -> f0(980)pipi, B0 -> rho0pipi and non-resonant B0 -> 4pi. These results are…
The missing-mass spectrum obtained in a recoil-free transfer reaction p($^{27}$Al,$^{3}$He)$\pi^{-}$p'X is analyzed. We find that the observed peak structure arises from the coherent contributions from two reaction processes in the energy…
An overview is given of the study of final state interactions in hadronically decaying W pairs produced in e^+e^--collisions as it is performed by the four LEP experiments. Bose-Einstein correlations are investigated by comparing like- with…
Various new measurements in charmless $B_{u,d,s}\to PP$ modes, where $P$ is a low lying pseudoscalar meson, are reported by Belle and LHCb. These include the rates of $B^0\to\pi^0\pi^0$, $\eta\pi^0$, $B_s\to\eta'\eta'$, $B^0\to K^+K^-$ and…
We provide a new estimate of the long-distance component to the radiative transition $B \to \rho \gamma$. Our mechanism involves the soft-scattering of on-shell hadronic products of nonleptonic $B$ decay, as in the chain $B \to \rho\rho \to…
A distinct peak is observed in the pi^+/- psi' invariant mass distribution near 4.43 GeV in B->K pi^+/- psi' decays. A fit using a Breit Wigner resonance shape yields a peak mass and width of 4433+-4(stat)+-2(syst) MeV and Gamma =…
A resonance X(3872), first observed in the decays $B \to K X$, has been seen to decay to $J/\psi \pi^+ \pi^-$. The $\pi^+ \pi^-$ mass spectrum peaks near its kinematic upper limit, prompting speculation that the dipion system may be in a…
The contribution of rescattering to final state interactions in the (e,e'p) cross section is studied using a semiclassical model. This approach considers a two-step process with the propagation of an intermediate nucleon and uses Glauber…
We study the effect of final state radiation in the process $e^++e^- \to \bar p+ p$, in the kinematical conditions of BaBar and BESIII experiment. We show that this effect could be large, in particular in the low $x$ region ($x$ is the…
The $\psi(3686)$ is identified as the radial excitation of the $J/\psi$. Based on perturbative QCD, the branching ratio of the $\psi(3686)$ into some final hadron state should be approximately 13% of the branching ratio of the $J/\psi$ to…
We study the energy level statistics of the states in U(5) and O(6) dynamical symmetries of the interacting boson model and the high spin states with backbending in U(5) symmetry. In the calculations, the degeneracy resulting from the…
We report on a Belle II measurement of the branching fraction ($\mathcal{B}$), longitudinal polarization fraction ($f_L$), and CP asymmetry ($\mathcal{A}_{CP}$) of $B^+\to \rho^+\rho^0$ decays. We reconstruct $B^+\to \rho^+(\to…
The di-top final state is an important search channel for additional Higgs bosons at the LHC. In this channel, large signal--background interference contributions can strongly distort a resonance peak as it would be expected from a pure…
Using $(27.12 \pm 0.14) \times 10^{8}$ $\psi(3686)$ events collected with the BESIII detector at BEPCII, the decay of $\psi(3686) \to \Omega^- K^+ \bar{\Xi}^0 +c.c.$ is observed for the first time. The branching fraction of this decay is…
