Possible Molecular States of System and Y(4140)
The interpretation of Y(4140) as a molecule is studied
dynamically in the one boson exchange approach, where , and
exchange are included. Ten allowed states with
low spin parity are considered, we find that the , ,
, and configurations are most
tightly bound. We suggest the most favorable quantum numbers are
for Y(4140) as a molecule, however,
and can not be excluded. We propose to search for the
and partners in the and final
states, which is an important test of the molecular hypothesis of Y(4140) and
the reasonability of our model. The molecule is
deeply bound, experimental search in the channel at Tevatron
and LHC is suggested.Comment: 13 pages,2 figure
Evidence for two-quark content of in exclusive decays
Inspired by a large decay branching ratio (BR) of
measured by Belle recently, we propose that a significant evidence of the
component of in could be
demonstrated in exclusive decays by the observation of in
the final states and . We predict the BRs of to be () while
the unknown wave functions of () are chosen to fit the
observed decays of .Comment: 4 pages, 2 figures, Revtex4, version to appear in PR
Scalar meson dynamics in Chiral Perturbation Theory
A comparison of the linear sigma model (LM) and Chiral Perturbation
Theory (ChPT) predictions for pion and kaon dynamics is presented. Lowest and
next-to-leading order terms in the ChPT amplitudes are reproduced if one
restricts to scalar resonance exchange. Some low energy constants of the order
ChPT Lagrangian are fixed in terms of scalar meson masses. Present values
of these low energy constants are compatible with the LM dynamics. We
conclude that more accurate values would be most useful either to falsify the
LM or to show its capability to shed some light on the controversial
scalar physics.Comment: 9 pages, REVTeX 4.0. Final version accepted for publicatio
Structure of the axial-vector meson and the strong coupling constant with the light-cone QCD sum rules
In this article, we take the point of view that the charmed axial-vector
meson is the conventional meson and calculate the
strong coupling constant in the framework of the light-cone
QCD sum rules approach. The numerical values of strong coupling constants
and are very large, and support the
hadronic dressing mechanism. Just like the scalar mesons and
, the scalar meson and axial-vector meson
may have small kernels of the typical
meson size, the strong couplings to the hadronic channels (or the virtual
mesons loops) may result in smaller masses than the conventional
mesons in the constituent quark models, and enrich the pure states
with other components.Comment: 17 pages, 7 figures, revised version. In the first version, I take
the value in numerical calculation, in the
revised version, I take a small value , the
value of the strong coupling constant is also change
Large Nc and Chiral Dynamics
We study the dependence on the number of colors of the leading pi pi
scattering amplitude in chiral dynamics. We demonstrate the existence of a
critical number of colors for and above which the low energy pi pi scattering
amplitude computed from the simple sum of the current algebra and vector meson
terms is crossing symmetric and unitary at leading order in a truncated and
regularized 1/Nc expansion. The critical number of colors turns out to be Nc=6
and is insensitive to the explicit breaking of chiral symmetry.
Below this critical value, an additional state is needed to enforce the
unitarity bound; it is a broad one, most likely of "four quark" nature.Comment: RevTeX4, 6 fig., 5 page
Chiral Lagrangian for strange hadronic matter
A generalized Lagrangian for the description of hadronic matter based on the
linear -model is proposed. Besides the baryon
octet, the spin-0 and spin-1 nonets, a gluon condensate associated with broken
scale invariance is incorporated. The observed values for the vacuum masses of
the baryons and mesons are reproduced. In mean-field approximation, vector and
scalar interactions yield a saturating nuclear equation of state. We discuss
the difficulties and possibilities to construct a chiral invariant baryon-meson
interaction that leads to a realistic equation of state. It is found that a
coupling of the strange condensate to nucleons is needed to describe the
hyperon potentials correctly. The effective baryon masses and the appearance of
an abnormal phase of nearly massless nucleons at high densities are examined. A
nonlinear realization of chiral symmetry is considered, to retain a Yukawa-type
baryon-meson interaction and to establish a connection to the Walecka-model.Comment: Revtex, submitted to Phys. Rev.
decays into and mesons
We consider the nonleptonic and semileptonic decays of -mesons into
and mesons. QCD sum rules are used to calculate the form
factors associated with these decays, and the correspondig decay rates. On the
basis of data on , which goes dominantly via the
transition , we conclude that there is space for a
sizeable light quark component on .Comment: 14 pages, RevTeX4 including 5 figures in ps file

Radiative decays of light vector mesons in a quark level linear sigma model
We calculate the P0 to gamma gamma, V0 to P0 gamma and V0to V'0 gamma gamma
decays in the framework of a U(3)xU(3) linear sigma model which includes
constituent quarks. For the first two decays this approach improves results
based on the anomalous Wess-Zumino term, with contributions due to SU(3)
symmetry breaking and vector mixing. The phi to (omega,rho) gamma gamma decays
are dominated by resonant eta' exchange . Our calculation for the later decays
improves and update similar calculations in the -closely related- framework of
vector meson dominance. We obtain BR(phi to rho gamma gamma)=2.5x10^{-5} and
BR(phi to omega gamma gamma)=2.8x10^{-6} within the scope of the
high-luminosity phi factories.Comment: 8 pages, submitted to Phys. Rev.
