Search for theZ(4430)−atBABAR
2009
We report the results of a search for Z(4430)^- decay to J/Ψ π^- or Ψ(2S)π^- in B(^-.0)→ J/Ψ π^-K^(0.+) and B^(-.0) → Ψ(2S)π^-K^(0.+) decays. The data were collected with the BABAR detector at the SLAC PEP-II asymmetric-energy e^+e^- collider operating at center-of-mass energy 10.58 GeV, and the sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 413 fb^(-1). Each K π^- mass distribution exhibits clear K^*(892) and K_2^*(1430) signals, and the efficiency-corrected spectrum is well described by a superposition of the associated Breit-Wigner intensity distributions, together with an S-wave contribution obtained from the LASS I=1/2 K π^- scattering amplitude measurements. Each K π^- angular dist…
ρρinteraction in the hidden gauge formalism and thef0(1370)andf2(1270)resonances
2008
We have studied the interaction of vector mesons within the hidden gauge formalism and applied it to the particular case of the $\ensuremath{\rho}\ensuremath{\rho}$ interaction. We find a strong attraction in the isospin, spin channels $I$, $S=0$, 0 and 0, 2, which is enough to bind the $\ensuremath{\rho}\ensuremath{\rho}$ system. We also find that the attraction in the $I$, $S=0$, 2 channel is much stronger than in the 0, 0 case. The states develop a width when the $\ensuremath{\rho}$ mass distribution is considered, and particularly when the $\ensuremath{\pi}\ensuremath{\pi}$ decay channel is turned on. Using a regularization scheme with cutoffs of natural size, we obtain results in fair …
Generalized Parton Distributions, Analyticity and Crossing
2005
A simple procedure for the derivation of Generalized Parton Distributions (GPDs) is suggested. Factorization of the perturbative and non-perturbative parts of the scattering amplitude is not assumed. Instead, GPDs are related, in the first approximation, to the deeply virtual Compton scattering (DVCS) amplitude, the emphasis being on the construction of DVCS or meson production amplitudes with correct analytical properties in a wide range of the kinematical variables.
Radiative open charm decay of the Y(3940), Z(3930), X(4160) resonances
2009
We determine the radiative decay amplitudes for the decay into D* and (D) over bar gamma, or (D) over bar gamma(s)* and s. of some of the charmonium- like states classified as X, Y, Z resonances, plus some other hidden charm states which are dynamically generated from the interaction of vector mesons with charm. The mass distributions as a function of the (D) over bar gamma or (D) over bar (s)gamma. invariant mass show a peculiar behavior as a consequence of the D* (D) over bar gamma* nature of these states. The experimental search of these magnitudes can shed light on the nature of these states.
Amplitude analysis and measurement of the time-dependentCPasymmetry ofB0→KS0KS0KS0decays
2012
We present the first results on the Dalitz-plot structure and improved measurements of the time-dependent CP-violation parameters of the process B0→KS0KS0KS0 obtained using 468×106 BB decays collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy B factory at SLAC. The Dalitz-plot structure is probed by a time-integrated amplitude analysis that does not distinguish between B0and B 0 decays. We measure the total inclusive branching fraction B(B0→KS0KS0KS0)=(6.19±0.48±0.15±0.12)×10-6, where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second is systematic, and the third represents the Dalitz-plot signal model dependence. We also observe evidence for the intermediate resonant states f0…
Measurement of decay amplitudes ofB→J/ψK*,ψ(2S)K*, andχc1K*with an angular analysis
2007
We perform the first three-dimensional measurement of the amplitudes of B→ψ(2S)K* and B→χc1K* decays and update our previous measurement for B→J/ψK*. We use a data sample collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II storage ring, corresponding to 232×106 BB pairs. The longitudinal polarization of decays involving a JPC=1++ χc1 meson is found to be larger than that with a 1 - J/ψ or ψ(2S) meson. No direct CP-violating charge asymmetry is observed. © 2007 The American Physical Society.
Measurement ofCPviolation parameters inB0→DK*0decays
2014
An analysis of B0→DK*0 decays is presented, where D represents an admixture of D0 and D¯0 mesons reconstructed in four separate final states: K−π+, π−K+, K+K− and π+π−. The data sample corresponds to 3.0 fb−1 of proton-proton collision, collected by the LHCb experiment. Measurements of several observables are performed, including CP asymmetries. The most precise determination is presented of rB(DK*0), the magnitude of the ratio of the amplitudes of the decay B0→DK+π− with a b→u or a b→c transition, in a Kπ mass region of ±50 MeV/c2 around the K∗(892) mass and for an absolute value of the cosine of the K*0 helicity angle larger than 0.4.
Two-body effects in coherent η-meson photoproduction on the deuteron in the region of theS11(1535)resonance
2001
Coherent \ensuremath{\eta}-meson photoproduction on the deuteron has been studied, where the emphasis is on the relative importance of two-body contributions from hadronic rescattering and electromagnetic meson exchange currents besides the impulse approximation. For the elementary photoproduction amplitude a coupled resonance model developed by Bennhold and Tanabe has been used that fits reasonably well with the experimental data. The rescattering effects are treated within a coupled channel approach considering the intermediate excitation of the ${P}_{11}(1440),$ ${D}_{13}(1520),$ and ${S}_{11}(1535)$ nucleon resonances. The hadronic interaction between nucleon and resonances is modeled b…
sigma meson in a nuclear medium through two pion photoproduction
2003
We show theoretical results for $(\gamma, \pi^0 \pi^0)$ production on nucleons and nuclei in the kinematical region where the scalar isoscalar $\pi \pi$ amplitude is influenced by the $\sigma$ pole. The final state interaction of the pions modified by the nuclear medium produces a spectacular shift of strength of the two pion invariant mass distribution induced by the moving of the $\sigma$ pole to lower masses and widths as the nuclear density increases.
Chiral unitary model for the kaonic atom
2000
We study kaonic atoms over the periodic table using a kaon self-energy in the nuclear medium derived from the SU(3) chiral unitary model. This model is quite successful in reproducing the scattering amplitude of meson meson and the strangeness $S=\ensuremath{-}1$ meson baryon reactions. In particular the properties of the $\ensuremath{\Lambda}(1405)$ resonance are well reproduced. In the nuclear medium the properties of this resonance are appreciably modified, and consequently the kaon nucleon scattering amplitudes, leading to an attractive kaon nucleus self-energy for densities higher than ${\ensuremath{\rho}}_{0}/25.$ With this interaction we are able to reproduce shifts and widths of kao…
