Light scalars as tetraquarks: decays and mixing with quarkonia

نویسنده

  • Francesco Giacosa
چکیده

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 Physics, 29th Course, ‘Quarks in Hadrons and Nuclei’, Erice-Sicily, 16-24 September 2007. E-mail: [email protected]

Modification of Kawai Model about the Mixing of the Pseudoscalar Mesons

The Kawai model describing the glueball-quarkonia mixing is modified. The mixing of η, η ′ and η(1410) is re-investigated based on the modified Kawai model. The glueball-quarkonia content of the three states is determined from a fit to the data of the electromagnetic decays involving η, η ′. Some predictions about the electromagnetic decays involving η(1410) are presented.

Study of Scalar Mesons and Related Radiative Decays

After a brief review of the puzzling light scalar meson sector of QCD, a brief summary will be given of a paper concerning radiative decays involving the light scalars. There, a simple vector meson dominance model is constructed in an initial attempt to relate a large number of the radiative decays involving a putative scalar nonet to each other. As an application it is illustrated why a0(980)−...

Mixing of scalar tetraquark and quarkonia states in a chiral approach

A chiral invariant Lagrangian describing the tetraquark-quarkonia interaction is considered at the leading and subleading order in the large-Nc expansion. Spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking generates mixing of scalar tetraquark and quarkonia states and non-vanishing tetraquark condensates. In particular, the mixing strength is related to the decay strengths of tetraquark states into pseudosca...

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...

The nature of the light scalar mesons from their radiative decays

The nature of the light scalar mesons is one of the most intriguing open challenges in hadronic spectroscopy. It is argued that radiative decays involving these scalars can serve as an important decisive tool in establishing their nature. In particular, special emphasis is made on the radiative decays of the scalars themselves (in addition to the radiative decays of the φ-meson with the scalars...
