Strong and electromagnetic decays of the light scalar mesons interpreted as tetraquark states

چکیده

The study of two-pseudoscalar and two-photon decays for the scalar meson nonet below 1 GeV is performed within an effective approach in which the scalar resonances are described as (Jaffe’s) tetraquark states. The dominant (fall apart decay) and the subdominant (one transverse gluon as intermediate state) decay amplitudes are systematically taken into account. The latter improves the agreement with the experimental data. Possible scenarios concerning the scalar-isoscalar mixing are discussed.

Decay of light scalar mesons into vector-photon and into pseudoscalar mesons

The decays of a light scalar meson into a vector meson and a photon (S → V γ) are evaluated in the tetraquark and quarkonium assignments of the scalar states. A link with the radiative decays φ → Sγ is established: experimental results for S → V γ will allow to understand if the direct, quark-loop contribution to φ→ Sγ or the kaon-loop contribution is dominant. Also strong decays S → PP -where ...

Light scalars as tetraquarks: decays and mixing with quarkonia

The tetraquark assignement for light scalar states below 1 GeV is discussed on the light of strong decays. The next-to-leading order in the large-N expansion for the strong decays is considered. Mixing with quarkonia states above 1 GeV is investigated within a chiral approach and the inclusion of finite-width effects is taken into account. Talk given at the International School of Nuclear Physi...

Scalar nonet quarkonia and the scalar glueball: mixing and decays in an effective chiral approach

We study the strong and electromagnetic decay properties of scalar mesons above 1 GeV within a chiral approach. The scalar-isoscalar states are treated as mixed states of quarkonia and glueball configurations. A fit to the experimental mass and decay rates listed by the Particle Data group is performed to extract phenomenological constraints on the nature of the scalar resonances and to the iss...

A QCD sum rule study of the light scalar mesons

We examine the interpretation of the light scalar meson nonet as bound states of the scalar diquark and the scalar antidiquark using the QCD sum rule approach. Our results are obtained by means of the operator product expansion (OPE) including operators up to dimension 8. They show no evidence of the coupling of the tetraquark states to the light scalar meson nonet. Pacs: 11.55.Hx, 12.38.Aw, 12...
