Can B→ppπ(π) be misidentified b→c transitions?

Recently reported decays of the B→pp̄π and pp̄ππ have been interpreted as evidence for the b→u transition. It is shown that a certain class of b→c transitions could be misidentified and interpreted as B→pp̄π(π).     

Electron decay following the N 1s→π* excitation in N2 studied under resonant Raman conditions

We have measured decay spectra following the N 1s→π* transition in N₂ with vibrational resolution in both the intermediate and final states. Using photon energy steps of 60 meV subtle changes in both the participator and spectator lines were observed. In particular, spectra measured at photon energies on the low-energy side of the first vibrational component of the absorption curve (“detuning”) gave rise to vibrational collapse of the participator lines. At higher photon energies vibrational-lifetime interference is observed on both participator and spectator lines.     

The Gamow-Teller transitions in the96Pd→96Rh decay

Using the⁴⁰Ca(4.2 MeV/u) +⁶⁰Ni reaction and on-line mass separation, the decay properties of ₄₆ ⁹⁶ Pd₅₀ were reinvestigated. From a comparison of experimental and theoreticalβ ⁺/(EC +β ⁺) probability ratios, theQ _EC value was deduced to be 3,450 ± 150 keV. The strength was determined for four 0⁺→1⁺ Gamow-Teller beta transitions and found to be quenched as compared to predictions of the single-particle shell model. For⁹⁶Pd and⁹⁴Ru the sources of this quenching are discussed.

K~* production in the KN → Kπp reaction

We investigate the K^∗ production in the KN→Kπp reaction using the effective Lagrangian approach and the isobar model.To describe this reaction,we first take into account the contributions from the π,ρ and ω exchanges,as in previous studies.We find that although the experimental data can be generally described,there are some obvious discrepancies between the model and the experiments.To improve the model,we consider the contributions of the axial-vector meson and hyperon exchange.It is shown that a large contribution of the axial-vector meson exchange can significantly improve the results.This may indicate that the coupling of the axial-vector meson,e.g.a1(1260),is large in the KK^∗ channel.To verify our model,measurements of the angular distributions and spin density matrix elements of K^∗0 in the KLp→K^∗0p reaction would be helpful,and we make predictions for this reaction for a future comparison.     

The decay J/ψ→ΛΛ→π-pπ+-p as an einstein-podolsky-rosen experiment

The correlations between the pions in the reaction $\text{J/ψ→Λ}\text{Λ}\text{→π}{}^{\mathrm{-}}\text{pπ}{}^{\mathrm{+-}}\text{p}$ are discussed. Explicit formulas are given which can be tested against experiment and, in particular, the part of the correlations which can violate the Bell inequalities are explicitly pointed out.     

Form factors of γ * ρ → π and γ * γ → π 0 transitions and light-cone sum rules

The method of light-cone QCD sum rules is applied to the calculation of the form factors of and transitions. We consider the dispersion relation for the amplitude in the variable . At large virtualities and , this amplitude is calculated in terms of light-cone wave functions of the pion. As a next step, the light-cone sum rule for the form factor is derived. This sum rule, together with the quark-hadron duality, provides an estimate of the hadronic spectral density in the dispersion relation. Finally, the form factor is obtained taking the limit in this relation. Our predictions are valid at and have a correct asymptotic behaviour at large .

Evidence for resonant structures in e＋e-→π＋π-hc

Abstract： The cross sections of e＋e-→π＋π-hc at center-of-mass energies from 3.90 to 4.42 GeV were measured by the BESIII and the CLEO-c experiments. Resonant structures are evident in the e＋e-→π＋π-hc line shape. The fit to the line shape results in a narrow structure at a mass of （4216±18） MeV/c2 and a width of （39±2） MeV, and a possible wide structure of mass （4293±9） MeV/c2 and width （222=k67） MeV. Here, the errors are combined statistical and systematic errors. This may indicate that the Y（4260） state observed in e＋e-→π＋π-J/ψ has a fine structure in it.     

BFKL resummation effects in γ*γ* → ρρ

We calculate the leading order BFKL amplitude for the exclusive diffractive process in the forward direction, which can be studied in future high energy e ⁺ e ^- linear colliders. The resummation effects are very large compared to the fixed-order calculation. We also estimate the next-to-leading logarithmic corrections to the amplitude by using a specific resummation of higher order effects and find a substantial growth with energy, but smaller than in the leading logarithmic approximation.

The K−d → πΣn reaction revisited

The appearance of some papers dealing with the K ^? d → πΣn reaction, with some discrepancies in the results and a proposal to measure the reaction at forward n angles at J-PARC justifies to retake the theoretical study of this reaction. We do this in the present paper showing results using the Watson approach and the truncated Faddeev approach. We argue that the Watson approach is more suitable to study the reaction because it takes into account the potential energy of the nucleons forming the deuteron, which is neglected in the truncated Faddeev approach. The paper shows the strength and limitations of both approaches and we perform calculations using four different approximations. Comparison of the results shows that the truncated Faddeev approach produces a strong asymmetry between the energy of the two nucleons of the deuteron, while in the Watson approach this energy is equally shared. From the experimental point of view the results are very valuable since they show that the different approximations share the feature that the peak of the πΣ mass distribution is drastically shifted in the presence of the Λ(1405). Additionally, we also show that in the angle-integrated cross section the threshold cusp effects are basically washed away and all approximations show a clear shape of the Λ(1405). In this sense, measurements of all these magnitudes in different K ^? energies are bound to bring new information that sheds new light on the properties and nature of the Λ(1405) resonance.     

Calculation and interpretation of vibronic absorption and fluorescence spectra of the first electronic nπ* transitions of pyridine and pyrimidine

We have calculated vibronic spectra of the first electronic nπ* transitions of pyridine and pyrimidine in the isolated state using the DFT method in the Franck-Condon approximation. Vibrational spectra for the ground and excited states have been calculated in the anharmonic approximation, which allowed us to refine the assignment of normal vibrations of pyridine and pyrimidine. We have done a complete interpretation of the vibrational structure of the absorption and fluorescence spectra of pyridine and pyrimidine. It has been shown that Fermi resonances between fundamental and combination vibrations and overtones 12 and 16b + 4, 6a and 2 × 16b affect the formation of the vibrational structure of electronic spectra of pyrimidine. Good agreement between calculated and experimental spectra confirms the correctness of the models of the two molecules in their ground and excited states, which makes it possible to use the models in further investigations of various properties of these molecules in electronically excited states, e.g., tautomerism of pyrimidine bases of nucleic acids.     

Evidence for resonant structures in e~+e~-→π~+π~-h_c

The cross sections of e+e-→π+π-hc at center-of-mass energies from 3.90 to 4.42 GeV were measured by the BES and the CLEO-c experiments. Resonant structures are evident in the e+e-→π+π-hc line shape. The fit to the line shape results in a narrow structure at a mass of(4216±18) MeV/c2and a width of(39±32) MeV, and a possible wide structure of mass(4293±9) MeV/c2and width(222±67) MeV. Here, the errors are combined statistical and systematic errors. This may indicate that the Y(4260) state observed in e+e-→π+π-J/ψ has a fine structure in it.     

γγ→π0 transition and asymptotics of γγ and γγ transitions of unflavored pseudoscalar mesons

For the spacelike momenta k of the virtual photon γ, the π⁰(p)γ(k)γ(k^′) transition form factor is considered in the coupled Schwinger–Dyson and Bethe-Salpeter approach in conjunction with the generalized impulse approximation using the dressed quark–photon–quark vertices of the Ball–Chiu and Curtis-Pennington type. These form factors are compared with the ones predicted by the vector meson dominance, operator product expansion, QCD sum rules, and the perturbative QCD for the large spacelike transferred momenta k. The most important qualitative feature of the asymptotic behavior, namely the 1/k² dependence, is in our approach obtained in the model-independent way. Again model-independently, our approach reproduces also the Adler–Bell–Jackiw anomaly result for the limit of both photons being real. For the case of one highly virtual photon, we find in the closed form the asymptotic expression which is then easily generalized both to the case of other unflavored pseudoscalar mesons P⁰=π⁰,η₈,η₀,η_c,η_b, and to the case of arbitrary virtuality of the other photon.

Fourth generation effects in Bs→π^-K^＋ decay

We study the effects of the fourth quark generation model in B_s → π^-K⁺ decay. Combining with the up-to-date experimental measurement for B(B_s → π^-K⁺) and A_cp^dir(B_s → π^-K⁺) by the CDF Collaboration, we derive the new bound of weak phase ø_bd, which are 0°< ø_bd <44°, 321°< ø_bd < 360° and 0°< ø_bd < 26°, 342°< ø_bd < 360° for m_t'=400 and 600 GeV respectively. In these regions, B(B_s → π^-K⁺) and A_cp^dir(B_s → π^-K⁺) consist with the current experimental data within errors.
