We present the theoretical study of the process $\chi_{c0}(1P)\to\bar\Sigma\Sigma\pi $ decay, by taking into account the $\pi\Sigma$ and $\pi\bar\Sigma$ final state interactions of the final meson-baryon pair based on the chiral unitary…
Motivated by the polarization anomaly in the B->phi(1020)K*(892) decay, we extend our search for other K* final states in the decay B0->phi(1020)K^*0 with the K*0->K+pi- invariant mass above 1.6 GeV. The final states considered include the…
We discuss a possible interpretation of the f0(980) meson as a hadronic molecule - a bound state of K and bar K mesons. Using a phenomenological Lagrangian approach we calculate the strong f0(980) to pi pi and electromagnetic f0(980) to…

Strong interactions between pairs of the K+ K- and K0 K0bar mesons can be studied in radiative decays of phi(1020) mesons. We present a theoretical model of the reactions e+ e- --> phi --> K+ K- gamma and e+ e- --> phi --> K0 K0bar gamma.…
A search has been made for the decays B+ -> phi pi+ and B0->to phi pi0 in a data sample of approximately 232 x 10^6 B Bbar pairs recorded at the Upsilon(4S) resonance with the BaBar detector at the PEP-II B-meson Factory at SLAC. No…
We report on a new measurement of the decay KL -> pi0 gamma gamma by the KTeV experiment at Fermilab. We determine the KL -> pi0 gamma gamma branching ratio to be (1.68 +/- 0.07 +/- 0.08)x10**-6. Our data shows the first evidence for a…
The decay $K^{-} \to \mu^{-} \bar{\nu} \pi^{0}$ has been studied using in-flight decays detected with ``ISTRA+'' setup operating in the 25 GeV negative secondary beam of the U-70 PS. About 112K events were used for the analysis. The…
We show that the recent paper \cite{kalash}, claiming that the radiative decays \phi\to a_0(980)\gamma and \phi\to f_0(980)\gamma should be of the same order of magnitude regardless of whether the a_0(980) and f_0(980) are compact…
Existing predictions for the branching ratio for $\phi\rightarrow K\bar{K}\gamma$ {\it via} $\phi\rightarrow S\gamma$ (where $S$ denotes one of the scalar mesons $f_0$(975) and $a_0$(980)) vary by several orders of magnitude. Given the…
We examine the parametrization of the e+e- -> omega pi0 cross section in the vicinity of the phi resonance and the extraction of the branching fraction of the isospin violating process phi -> omega pi0 from experimental data. We found that…

A calculation of the leading isospin-breaking contributions to the B -> K^* gamma decay amplitudes based on the QCD factorization approach is presented. They arise at order Lambda/m_b in the heavy-quark expansion and are due to annihilation…
We measure the branching fraction of the radiative B- decay B(B- -> phi K- gamma) = (3.46 +/- 0.57^{+0.39}_{-0.37}) 10^-6, and set an upper limit on the radiative B0 decay B(B0 -> phi K0 gamma) < 2.71 10^-6 at 90% confidence level. We also…
We study the $J/\psi \to \phi K \bar K$ decay, looking for differences in the production rates of $K^+ K^-$ or $K^0 \bar K^0$ in the region of 1700-1800 MeV, where two resonances appear dynamically generated from the vector-vector…
