The masses of the $K_1(^3P_1)$ and $K_1(^1P_1)$ are considered in a nonrelativistic constituent quark model, and the absolute value of the $K_1(^3P_1)-K_1(^1P_1)$ mixing angle is determined to be about $59.29^\circ$. Comparison of the…
Various phenomenological studies indicate that the mixing angle $\theta_{K_1}$ of $K_{1A}$ and $K_{1B}$, the strange partners of the axial-vector mesons $a_1(1260)$ and $b_1(1235)$, respectively, lies in the vicinity of $35^\circ$ or…
We studied properties of the strange axial mesons in the relativized quark model. We calculated the $K_1$ decay constant in the quark model and showed how it can be used to extract the $K_1 (^3P_1) - K_1 (^1P_1)$ mixing angle ($\theta_K$)…
In this study, we calculate the mixing angles between the axial-vector mesons $D_{1(s1)} - D_{1(s1)}^\prime$ and $B_{1(s1)} - B_{1(s1)}^\prime$ using the QCD sum rules approach. Our results are $\theta_1 = 28.2 \pm 0.6^\circ$, $\theta_2 =…
Analyses of various experimental measurements all indicate that the mixing angle $\theta_{K_1}$ of $K_1(1270)$ and $K_1(1400)$ is in the vicinity of $33^\circ$ or $57^\circ$. However, whether $\theta_{K_1}$ is greater or less than…
Unusual constituent quark axial current couplings to light vector mesons, $\rho$ and $\omega$, are derived in the vacuum and under weak magnetic field by considering a quark-antiquark interaction mediated by a non perturbative gluon…
Some claim that there are two independent mixing angles ($\theta = 35.3^\circ$, $-54.7^\circ$) between $^3P_1$ and $^1P_1$ states of heavy-light mesons in heavy quark symmetric limit, and others claim there is only one ($\theta =…
The Heavy Quark Effective Theory provides a systematic method to estimate a mixing angle of hadron states in a heavy quark, such as the charm quark (c) and the bottom quark (b). By using this method, the mixing angle of the baryons…
Two strategies are taken into account to determine the $f_1(1420)$-$f_1(1285)$ mixing angle $\theta$. (i) First, using the Gell-Mann-Okubo mass formula together with the $K_1(1270)$-$K_1(1400)$ mixing angle $\theta_{K_1}=(-34\pm 13)^\circ$…
We study the decays of the lightest axial-vector and pseudovector mesons, interpreted as quark-antiquark states, into a vector and a pseudoscalar meson. We show that the quarkonium assignment delivers a good description of the decays and…
The axial-vector coupling $g_A$ of a constituent quark is estimated from matching the constituent quark model to the operator product expansion in QCD in the limit of large number of colours under some assumptions. The obtained relation is…
The mass spectrum of P-wave mesons is considered in a nonrelativistic constituent quark model. The results show the common mass degeneracy of the isovector and isodoublet states of the scalar and tensor meson nonets, and do not exclude the…

While a chiral fourth generation of quarks is almost ruled out from the data on Higgs boson production and decay at the Large Hadron Collider, vector-like quarks are still a feasible option to extend the fermionic sector of the Standard…
We show that all mixing angles are determined, within experimental uncertainty, by a product of SU(2) horizontal symmetries intimately linked to the algebra of weak neutral currents. This concerns: on one hand, the three quark mixing…
It is shown that the QCD anomaly may lead to an abnormal mixing behavior of the axial vector mesons similar to the pseudoscalar mesons. These mixing effects, involving a gluonic axial vector state, generate a non-vanishing strange quark…
The strange quark mass is calculated from QCD sum rules for the divergence of the vector as well as axial-vector current in the next-next-to-leading logarithmic approximation. The determination for the divergence of the axial-vector current…
