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 study the radiative $\rho$, $\omega$ and $\phi$ decay into $\pi^0 \pi^0 \gamma$ and $\pi^0 \eta \gamma $ taking into account mechanisms in which there are two sequential vector-vector-pseudoscalar or axial-vector--vector--pseudoscalar…

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 show that $\phi$ radiative decays into scalar mesons [$f_0$(975), $a_0$(980)$\equiv S$] can provide important clues on the internal structures of these mesons. Radiative decay widths vary widely: $B.R.=10^{-4}-10^{-6}$ depending on the…
