System-environment interaction may introduce dynamic destruction of quantum coherence, resulting in a special representation named as pointer states. Here, pointer states of an open electronic system are studied. The decoherence effect is…
We study the exotic muon decays with five charged tracks in the final state. First, we investigate the Standard Model rate for $\mu^+ \to 3e^+\,2e^-\,2\nu$ ($B = 4.0\times 10^{-10})$ and find that the Mu3e experiment should have tens to…
The primary goal of the GlueX experiment at Jefferson Lab is to search for and map the spectrum of light hybrid mesons. Many experiments have studied and reported evidence of exotic mesons decaying into $\eta\pi$ and $\eta'\pi$ final…
In the ordered phase of a $\mathbb{Z}_2$-symmetric collective spin system, two natural bases -- localised pointer states $\{|P\rangle,|R\rangle\}$ and energy eigenstates $\{|E_0\rangle,|E_1\rangle\}$ -- yield Lindblad dephasing rates that…
The use of the hyperspherical harmonic (HH) basis in the description of bound states in an $A$-body system composed by identical particles is normally preceded by a symmetrization procedure in which the statistic of the system is taken into…
The $B^0_{s,d} \to J/\psi \eta^{(\prime)}$ decays provide new terrain for exploring CP violation. After briefly discussing $\eta$-$\eta'$ mixing, we analyse the effective lifetimes and CP-violating observables of the $B_s$ channels, which…
The widths of the strong decays $Z_c^{+}(3900)\to J/\psi \pi^{+}$ and $Z_c^{+}(3900)\to \eta_{c} \rho^{+}$ are calculated. To this end, the mass and decay constant of the exotic $Z_c^{+}(3900)$ state are computed by means of a two-point sum…
The mass and current coupling of the tensor hybrid charmonia $H_{\mathrm{c}} $ and $\widetilde{H}_{\mathrm{c}}$ with quantum numbers $J^{\mathrm{PC} }=2^{-+}$ and $2^{++}$, as well as their full widths are calculated in the context of the…
We show that current analyses of experimental data indicate that the strong decay mode pi_2 -> b_1 pi is anomalously small. Non-relativistic quark models with spin-1 quark pair creation, such as ^3P_0, ^3S_1 and ^3D_1 models, as well as…
A decay width calculation for a hybrid exotic meson h, with JPC=1-+, is presented for the channel h->pi+a1. This quenched lattice QCD simulation employs Luescher's finite box method. Operators coupling to the h and pi+a1 states are used at…
The tetramixing of pseudoscalar mesons $\pi$-$\eta$-$\eta'$-$\eta_c$ and vector mesons $\omega$-$\rho$-$\phi$-$J/\psi$ are studied in the light-cone constituent quark model, and such mixing of four mesons provides a natural source for the…
K -> Pi Pi decays are investigated in the framework of the SU(2)left x U(1) gauge theory of J=0 mesons proposed in ref.[1], to which is added an interaction between mesons respecting the two symmetries generally attributed to strong…
The interaction between pseudoscalar and/or vector mesons can be studied using hidden gauge Lagrangians. In this framework, the interaction between charmed mesons has been studied. Furthermore, doubly charmed states are also predicted.…
We present further tests and applications of the new eta-eta' mixing scheme recently proposed by us. The particle states are decomposed into orthonormal basis vectors in a light-cone Fock representation. Because of flavor symmetry breaking…
We examine the decay of $Z_1$ in electrons with recent data from LEP. The partial width $\Gamma(Z_1\to e^-e^+)$ is studied in the framework of a left-right symmetric model with standard electroweak corrections. Processes measured near the…
The spin-averaged electromagnetic polarizabilities of the hyperons $\Lambda$ and $\Sigma$ are calculated within the one-loop approximation by use of the dispersion theory. The photon and meson couplings to hyperons are determined so as to…
We discuss three possible scenarios for the interpretation of mesons containing a heavy quark and its antiquark near and above the first threshold for a decay into a pair of heavy mesons in a relative $S$--wave. View I assumes that these…
We present the first determination of the hadronic decays of the lightest exotic $J^{PC}=1^{-+}$ resonance in lattice QCD. Working with SU(3) flavor symmetry, where the up, down and strange quark masses approximately match the physical…
We study the tetraquark state with I^G J^{PC} = 0^+ 1^{-+} in the QCD sum rule. We exhaust all possible flavor structures by using a diquark-antidiquark construction and find that the flavor structure 3*6+6*3 is preferred. There are…
The spin-exotic hybrid meson $\pi_{1}(1600)$ is predicted to have a large decay rate to the $\omega\pi\pi$ final state. Using 76.6~pb$^{-1}$ of data collected with the GlueX detector, we measure the cross sections for the reactions $\gamma…
