VPγ radiative decay of resonances dynamically generated from the vector meson–vector meson interaction

We evaluate the radiative decay into a vector, a pseudoscalar and a photon of several resonances dynamically generated from the vector–vector interaction. The process proceeds via the decay of one of the vector components into a pseudoscalar and a photon, which have an invariant mass distribution very different from phase space as a consequence of the two vector structure of the resonances. Experimental work along these lines should provide useful information on the nature of these resonances.     

Decays of the mesons and the singlet photon

In an attempt to explain the recent measurements on the radiative decays of the vector-mesons (V→Pγ), we study the consequences of introducing a small admixture of SU (3) singlet piece in the electromagnetic current. We find that this leads to an excellent fit of the theory with the new measurements on theV→Pγ decays. However, this addition adversely affects the fit of the leptonic decays of the vector mesons (V→e ⁺ e ⁻) and of the radiative decay of the pion (π→2γ). We conclude that the overall fit to the available data does not favour a large (>10%) admixture of the SU(3) singlet. The decay rates have been calculated in the vectormeson dominance model. At the hadronic vertex (VVP), we assume asymptotic nonet symmetry. The electromagnetic couplings (V−γ) are the ones appropriate to vector-mixing.     

Searching for new physics in D^0→μ^＋ μ^-,e^＋e^-,μ^±e at BES and/or the super charm-tau factory

In contrast with B0-ˉB0, Bs-ˉBs mixing where the standard model（SM） contributions overwhelm that of the new physics beyond standard model（BSM）, a measured relatively large D0-ˉD0mixing where the SM contribution is negligible, definitely implies the existence of the new physics BSM. It is natural to consider that the rare decays of D meson might be more sensitive to new physics, and the decay mode D0→μ＋μ-could be an ideal area to search for new physics because it is a flavor changing process. In this work we look for a trace of the new physics BSM in the leptonic decays of D0. Concretely we discuss the contributions of unparticle or an extra gauge boson Z while imposing the constraints set by fitting the D0-ˉD0mixing data. We find that the long-distance SM effects for D0→lˉl still exceed those contributions of the BSM under consideration, but for a double-flavor changing process such as D0→μ±e, the new physics contribution would be significant.     

Nonleptonic decay matrix elements in the variable pressure bag model

The consequences of the variable pressure bag model for the nonleptonic decays of hyperons and Ω⁻ are investigated. Though the order of magnitude and the relative sign for the various decay amplitudes are correctly reproduced, the overall results are small by a factor of 2 to 4, indicating that the theoretical predictions are strongly dependent on the model parameters.     

An exclusive event generator for e~+ e~- scan experiments

An exclusive event generator is designed for e+e-scan experiments,including initial state radiation effects up to the second order correction.The generator is coded within the framework of BesEvtGen.There are seventy hadronic decay modes available,with effective center-of-mass energy coverage from the two pion mass threshold up to about 6 GeV.The accuracy achieved for the initial state radiation correction reaches the level achieved by the KKMC generator.The uncertainty associated with the calculation of the correction factor to the initial state radiation is dominated by the measurements of the energy-dependent Born cross section.     

Study of pure and semileptonic decays of Ds meson within R-parity violating supersymmetric model

We present the comaprative study of semileptonic and leptonic decays of Ds, D±and D0meson（D →M l＋-αl-β, D → l＋αlβ, D → l＋αvα;α,β=e,μ） within the framework of R-parity violating the（ Rp） Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model（MSSM）. The comparison shows that combination and product couplings,（λβiα λ＊ ij qor λβqkλ＊αj k）contribution to the branching fractions of the said processes（under consideration） is consistent with or comparable to the experimental measurements in most of the cases. However, some cases exist where these contributions are highly suppressed. We identify such cases in our analysis and single out the important ones suitable for exploring in the future and current experiments.     

Inclusive production of the meson in hadronic decays of the Z boson

The inclusive production rate of the ρ^±(770) vector meson in hadronic Z decays is measured with the ALEPH detector at the LEP collider. A total of 3.2 million hadronic events are selected from data recorded between 1991 and 1995. Decays of ρ^±→π⁰+π^± are reconstructed for x_E>0.05 and x_p>0.05 where x_p=p_ρ/p_beam and x_E=E_ρ/E_beam. The average ρ^± multiplicity per hadronic event is evaluated to be N(ρ^±)=2.59±0.03±0.15±0.04 where the first error is statistical and the second systematic. The third error is from the uncertainty in the extrapolation to x_p=x_E=0. The rates and differential cross-section are compared with Monte Carlo model predictions and OPAL measurements. Residual Bose–Einstein correlations are found to be an important component in the analysis.
