Three channel model of meson-meson scattering and scalar meson spectroscopy

Three channel model of meson-meson scattering and scalar meson spectroscopy

New solutions on the scalar – isoscalar ππ phase shifts are analysed together with previous KK results using a separable potential model of three coupled channels (ππ , KK and an effective 2π2π system). Model parameters are fitted to two sets of solutions obtained in a recent analysis of the CERN-Cracow-Munich measurements of the πp↑ → π +π−n reaction on a polarized target. A relatively narrow ...

Peculiarities in multichannel interaction amplitudes for meson-meson scattering and scalar meson spectroscopy

Interactions in coupled channels ππ, KK̄ and an effective 2π2π in scalar-isoscalar wave have been analysed. Influence of interchannel couplings on analytical structure of multichannel interaction amplitudes has been studied. Interplay of S-matrix zeroes and poles and their relation with parameters of scalar resonances has been investigated. PACS numbers: 11.80.Gw, 13.60.Le, 13.75.Lb, 14.40.Cs St...

Charm Meson Production from Meson-nucleon Scattering

Because of their large masses, one expects charm mesons to be mostly produced in the initial preequilibrium stage of relativistic heavy ion collisions. They have thus been suggested as possible probes of the initial dynamics in these collisions. Previous studies have been concentrated on the production of charm quarks from the preequilibrium partonic matter [1]. For charm meson production from ...

Scalar Meson Photoproduction

The light-quark non-strange scalar mesons a0(980), f0(980), f0(1370), a0(1450), f0(1500) and f0(1710) are of great interest as there is no generally accepted view of their structure which can encompass qqq̄q̄, molecular, qq̄ and glueball states in various combinations. It has been shown previously that the radiative decays of the scalar mesons to ρ and ω are a good probe of their structure and pro...
