The radiative decay of the axial-vector resonances into a pseudoscalar meson and a photon is studied using the vector meson Lagrangian obtained from the hidden gauge symmetry (HGS) formalism. The formalism is well suited to study this…
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…
In a small window of phase space, chiral perturbation theory can be used to make standard model predictions for tau decays into two and three pions. For $\tau \to 2\pi \nu_\tau$, we give the analytical result for the relevant form factor…
Based on explicitly gauge invariant interpolating operators we compute complete next-leading order QED-corrections for leptonic decays. These are sizeable since the helicity-suppression in V-A interactions allows for structure-dependent…
Light tensor mesons (T = a_2, f_2 and K_2^*) can be produced in decays of tau leptons. In this paper we compute the branching ratios of tau --> T pi nu decays by assuming the dominance of intermediate virtual states to model the form…
The exact form of the form-factor associated with a meson-photon-photon vertex is not known. Different suggestions exist, based on constraints from QCD and on recent experiments. Four different form-factors are studied in this article. We…
The \tau -> (\omega, \phi)P^-\nu decays, where P^-=\pi^-, K^-, are considered within a phenomenological model with dominance of meson intermediate states. We assume SU(3) flavor symmetry to fix some of the unknown strong interaction…
We show that $\phi$ radiative decays into scalar mesons [$f_0$(975), $a_0$(980)$\equiv S$] can provide important clues on the internal structures of these mesons. Radiative decay widths vary widely: $B.R.=10^{-4}-10^{-6}$ depending on the…
Predictions based on the chirally normalized vector meson dominance model for decay rates and distributions of $\tau$ decays into $K\pi\pi\nu_\tau$ final states are discussed. Disagreements with experimental results can be traced back to…
The scalar and vector meson exchange contributions to the doubly radiative decays $\eta^{(\prime)}\to\pi^0\gamma\gamma$ and $\eta^\prime\to\eta\gamma\gamma$ are analysed within the Linear Sigma Model and Vector Meson Dominance frameworks,…
We review a variety of topics related to hadronic structure functions in exclusive semihadronic tau decays. We introduce the concept of structure functions and summarize the most important concepts. We then calculate the decay $\tau \to 3…
In this paper we study two kinds of tau decays: (a) tau- --> (rho pi-,omega pi-, phi pi-, K*0 K-) nu(tau), which belong to Delta S=0 processes and (b) Delta S = 1 processes, like tau- --> (rho K-, omega K-, phi K-, \bar{K*0} pi-) nu(tau),…
We study the possibility that the magnetic dipole moment of light charged vector mesons could be measured from their effects in \tau^- --> V^-\nu_{\tau}\gamma decays. We conclude that the energy spectrum and angular distribution of photons…
Radiative corrections in the order ${\alpha\over{2\pi}}{{m^2_e}\over m^2_\mu}$ to $\mu $- and ${\alpha\over{2\pi}}{{m^2_\mu}\over m^2_\tau}$ to $\tau $- decays are calculated. The decay width is enhanced by $4.48\cdot 10^{-3}…
Radiative muon decay in the kinematics similar to the neutrinoless decay $\mu\to e\gamma$ is considered. Radiative corrections due to 1-loop virtual photons and emission of additional soft or hard photons are taken into account. Analytical…
We perform a measurement of the tau -> l gamma nu anti-nu (l = e, mu) branching fractions for a minimum photon energy of 10 MeV in the tau rest frame, using 431fb^-1 of e^+e^- collisions collected at the center-of-mass energy of the…
We investigate the relations between the K_{l3} and tau --> K pi nu_tau decays using the meson dominance approach. First, the experimental branching fractions (BF) for K^-_{e3} and K^0_{e3} are used to fix two normalization constants…
We consider radiative \beta--decay of the neutron in heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory, with an extension including explicit \Delta degrees of freedom. We compute the photon energy spectrum as well as the photon polarization; both…
