We discuss a possible interpretation of the Ds1(2460) meson as a hadronic molecule - a bound state of D* and K mesons. Using a phenomenological Lagrangian approach we determine the strong Ds1 to Ds* pi0 and radiative Ds1 to Ds gamma decays.…

Within the framework of chiral effective field theory, we study various electromagnetic processes with light vector resonances: $K^{\ast}(892)\to K\gamma$, $e^{+}e^{-}\to K^{\ast}(892)K $ and the $\omega\pi\gamma^\ast$ form factors. With…
We present results from Fermilab experiment E791. We extracted the fractions of resonant components in the $\Lambda_c^+\to p K^- \pi^+$ decays, and found a significant polarization of the $\Lambda_c^+$ using a fully 5-dimensional resonant…

We present recent BESIII results about the study of mesons which contain at least one charm quark. We determined the D(s)+ decay constants, the form factors of D semi-leptonic decays, the CKM matrix elements |Vcs(d)|.
We carry out a systematic study of the heavy-light meson strong decays in a chiral quark model. For the $S$-wave vectors ($D^*(2007)$, $D^{*\pm}(2010)$), $P$-wave scalars ($D^*_0(2400)$, $B^*_0(5730)$) and tensors ($D^*_2(2460)$,…
V-spin symmetry ($s \leftrightarrow d$ symmetry) forbids the radiative decay $\Xi_{c2}^{0*} \rightarrow \Xi_{c1}^0 \gamma$ in the SU(3) limit. The quark mass term breaks V-spin symmetry and the leading nonanalytic contribution to the…
The low-energy S-wave component of the decay $D^+ \to K^- \pi^+ \pi^+$ is studied by means of a chiral SU(3)XSU(3) effective theory. As far as the primary vertex is concerned, we allow for the possibility of either direct production of…
We study the decay of dynamically generated resonances from the interaction of two vectors into a $\gamma$ and a pseudoscalar meson. The dynamics requires anomalous terms involving vertices with two vectors and a pseudoscalar, which renders…
