We calculate the rho meson mass in a weak magnetic field using effective $\rho\pi\pi$ interaction. It is seen that both $\rho^0$ and $\rho^\pm$ masses decrease with the magnetic field in vacuum. $\rho$ meson dispersion relation has been…

The theoretical explanations about the ``Rho-pi puzzle'' in charmonium decays are reviewed extensively, and the comparison of theoretical predications with experimental data is made whenever possible. Three methods to estimate the ratio of…

The experimental observation indicates that the branching ratio of $\psi'\to \rho\pi$ is very small while the $\rho-\pi$ channel is a main one in $J/\psi$ decays. To understand the puzzle, various interpretations have been proposed.…

The recent BES Collaboration data on $\psi' \ra PV$, particularly the isospin violating mode $\psi' \ra \pi^0 \omega^0$ and finding of a finite number for $B(\psi' \ra K^{*0}\bar{K}^0)$, enable us now to deal more precisely about the…

\pspto \rho\pi is observed for the fisrt time in a data sample of 14M \psp decays collected by the BESII detector at BEPC. The branching fraction is measured to be \BR(pspto\rho\pi)=(5.1+-0.7+-0.8)10-5, where the first error is statistical…

We study the radiative $\rho^0\to \pi^+\pi^-\gamma$ and $\rho^0\to \pi^0\pi^0\gamma$ decays and we calculate their branching ratios using a phenomenological approach by adding to the amplitude calculated within the framework of chiral…

This paper presents a method for the analysis of process $J/\psi \rightarrow \rho\pi \rightarrow \pi^+\pi^-\pi^0$ based on the consideration of the angles of expansion of finite pion pairs. The proposed approach makes it possible to…

We study $\rho-\omega-$interference by analyzing $J/\psi\to \pi^+\pi^-\pi^0\pi^0$. PDG-2002 data on $J/\psi$ decays into $PP$ and $PV$ ($P$ denotes pseudoscalar mesons; $V$, vector mesons) are used to fit a generic model which describes the…

The mass spectra of the $\phi\phi$ and $J/\psi\phi$ states in the decay $B^0_s\to J/\psi\phi\phi$ recently observed by LHCb are calculated in the model which takes into account the $J^P=0^+,0^-,2^+$ intermediate resonances $R_1$, $R_2$ in…

Proton-proton collision data recorded in 2011 and 2012 by the \lhcb experiment, co\-rres\-pon\-ding to an integrated luminosity of 3.0\invfb, are a\-na\-lysed to search for the charmless ${B^0 \to \rho^0 \rho^0}$ decay. More than 600 ${\B^0…

We reexamine the $\omega \to \pi^{0} \pi^{0} \gamma $ decay, adding the effect of $\omega-\rho$ mixing to the amplitude calculated with the aid of chiral perturbation theory and vector meson dominance. We predict the neutral decay to occur…

An amplitude analysis of ${B^0\to (\pi^+\pi^-) (K^+\pi^-)}$ decays is performed in the two-body invariant mass regions ${300 < m(\pi^+\pi^-)<1100}$ MeV/$c^2$, accounting for the $\rho^0$, $\omega$, $f_0(500)$, $f_0(980)$ and $f_0(1370)$…

Rate for the X(3872) --> J/psi pi pi pi decay is studied by assuming that it proceeds as X(3872) --> J/psi omega --> J/psi pi rho --> J/psi pi pi pi. The result is compared with the X(3872) --> J/psi pi pi decay.

We investigate the splitting and mixing of $\rho$ and $\omega$ mesons in nuclear matter. The calculations were performed on the basis of QCD sum rules and include all operators up to mass dimension-6 twist-4 and up to first order in the…

The first observation of the rare decay$B^0_s \to \phi\pi^+\pi^-$ and evidence for $B^0 \to \phi\pi^+\pi^-$ are reported, using $pp$ collision data recorded by the LHCb detector at centre-of-mass energies $\sqrt{s} = 7$ and 8~TeV,…

In terms of effective field theory and mixed propagator approach, we show that there is a larger hidden effect of isospin breaking in $\rho^0\to\pi^0\gamma$ decay due to an $\omega$ exchange, $\rho^0\to\omega\to\pi^0\gamma$. The branching…

We study the radiative decay $\phi\to\pi^{0}\eta\gamma$ within the framework of a phenomenological approach in which the contributions of $\rho$-meson, chiral loop and $a_0$-meson are considered. We analyze the interference effects between…
