چکیده

ABSTRACT We present a calculation of the rare decay mode D0 → γγ, in which the long distance contributions are expected to be dominant. Using the Heavy Quark Chiral Perturbation Theory Lagrangian with a strong g coupling as recently determined by CLEO from the D∗ → Dπ width, we consider both the anomaly contribution which relates to the annihilation part of the weak Lagrangian and the one-loop π, K diagrams. The loop contributions which are proportional to g and contain the a1 Wilson coefficient are found to dominate the decay amplitude, which turns out to be mainly parity violating. The branching ratio is then calculated to be (1.0± 0.5)× 10−8. Observation of an order of magnitude larger branching ratio could be indicative of new physics.

We have calculated the width of the rare decay H → γγZ at one-loop level in the standard model for Higgs boson masses in the range 115GeV ≤ mH ≤ 160GeV . For this range of Higgs boson masses we find that Z boson is predominantly longitudinally polarized, and the photons have the same helicity. A comparison of the decay width Γ(H → γγZ) to those of H → γγ and H → γZ shows that, for the Higgs bos...

The cross sections for several γγ → V V processes exhibit strong enhancements near threshold, where V denotes a vector meson. The pattern of these enhancements is not well understood; for example, γγ → ρρ shows an appreciable peak, while γγ → ρρ does not. Some possible mechanisms for this behavior are discussed. Tests are proposed involving production of systems containing heavier quarks, e.g.,...
