Meson decay in the Fock-Tani Formalism

The Fock-Tani formalism is a first principle method to obtain effective interactions from microscopic Hamiltonians. Usually this formalism was applied to scattering, here we introduced it to calculate partial decay widths for mesons.Comment: Presented at HADRON05 XI.

Meson decay in a corrected 30P3^P_0 model

Extensively applied to both light and heavy meson decay and standing as one of the most successful strong decay models is the $3^P_0$ model, in which $q\bar{q}$ pair production is the dominant mechanism. The pair production can be obtained from the non-relativistic limit of a microscopic interaction Hamiltonian involving Dirac quark fields. The evaluation of the decay amplitude can be performed by a diagrammatic technique for drawing quark lines. In this paper we use an alternative approach which consists in a mapping technique, the Fock-Tani formalism, in order to obtain an effective Hamiltonian starting from same microscopic interaction. An additional effect is manifest in this formalism associated to the extended nature of mesons: bound-state corrections. A corrected $3^P_0$ is obtained and applied, as an example, to $b_{1}\to\omega\pi$ and $a_{1}\to\rho\pi$ decays.Comment: 3 figures. To appear in Physical Review

Interpolation of bilinear operators and compactness

The behavior of bilinear operators acting on interpolation of Banach spaces for the $\rho$ method in relation to the compactness is analyzed. Similar results of Lions-Peetre, Hayakawa and Person's compactness theorems are obtained for the bilinear case and the $\rho$ method.Comment: This work was published at "Nonlinear Analysis: Theory, Methods and Applications, Volume 73, Issue 2, 2010, Pages 526-537". Since there are some gaps in the original proof of Theorem 4.3, Here we give a new proof. For this, we change the Lemma 4.

Glueball-glueball scattering in a constituent gluon model

In this work we use a mapping technique to derive in the context of a constituent gluon model an effective Hamiltonian that involves explicit gluon degrees of freedom. We study glueballs with two gluons using the Fock-Tani formalism. In the present work we consider two possibilities for $0^{++}$: (i) as a pure $s\bar{s}$ and calculate, in the context of a quark interchange picture, the cross-section; (ii) as a glueball where a new calculation for this cross-section is made, in the context of the constituent gluon model, with gluon interchange.Comment: Proceedings of the International Workshop IX Hadron Physics and VII Relativistic Aspects of Nuclear Physics (HADRON-RANP 2004
