The role of N*(2120) nucleon resonance in KΛ(1520) photon and hadronic productions
2013
The associate $K\Lambda(1520)$ photon and hadronic production in the $\gamma p \to K^+\Lambda(1520)$, $p p \to p K^+ \Lambda(1520)$ and $\pi^- p \to K^0 \Lambda(1520)$ reactions are investigated within the effective Lagrangian approach and the isobar model. We are interested in the contribution from the $N^*(2120)$ (previously called $N^*(2080)$) resonance, which has a significant coupling to the $K\Lambda(1520)$ channel. The theoretical results show that the current experimental data for the $\gamma p \to K^+\Lambda(1520)$ reaction favor the existence of the $N^*(2120)$ resonance, and that these measurements can be used to further constrain its properties. We present results, including the…
The End Point Tagger physics program at A2@MAMI
2017
The A2-Collaboration uses a beam of real photons from the tagged photon facility at the electron accelerator MAMI in Mainz, Germany, to study photo-produced mesons. A new tagging device allows access to the higher photon beam energy range of 1.4 to 1.6 GeV. A large dataset containing more than 6 million η ′ and roughly 29 million ω decays has been obtained. Analyses are ongoing, including a study of the cusp effect and Dalitz plot in η ′ → ηπ 0 π 0 , giving insight to the π π scattering length and the structure of the ηππ system, as well as the measurement of the electromagnetic transition form factor in η ′ → e + e − γ , a cross section measurement of γ p → 3 π 0 , and branching ratio anal…
Measurement of η′ → ηπ+π− with KLOE and KLOE-2
2012
The investigation of η ′ → ππη allows to study ππ and ηπ interactions and the possible influence of the scalar states f 0 (600) and a 0 (980) on the decay dynamics. 1.7 fb −1 of data taken with the KLOE detector at the DAΦ NE e+ e− collider have been analyzed with respect to the charged decay mode η ′ → π + π − η . 7900 ± 90 event candidates have been extracted and can be used for a Dalitz plot analysis.
Measurement of theγγ*→π0transition form factor
2009
We study the reaction e+e- --> e+e-pi0 and measure the gamma gamma* --> pi0 transition form factor in the momentum transfer range from 4 to 40 GeV^2. The analysis is based on 442 fb^-1 of integrated luminosity collected at PEP-II with the BABAR detector at e+e- center-of-mass energies near 10.6 GeV.
Three-body final state interaction in η→ 3π updated
2017
In view of the recent high-statistic KLOE data for the η→π+π−π0 decay, a new determination of the quark mass double ratio has been done. Our approach relies on a dispersive model that takes into account rescattering effects between three pions via subenergy unitarity. The latter is essential to reproduce the Dalitz plot distribution. A simultaneous description of the KLOE and WASA-at-COSY data is achieved in terms of just two real parameters. From a global fit, we determine Q=21.6±1.1. The predicted slope parameter for the neutral channel α=−0.025±0.004 is in reasonable agreement with the PDG average value.
$a_0-f_0$ mixing in the Khuri-Treiman equations for $\eta\to 3\pi$
2015
A reliable determination of the isospin breaking double quark mass ratio from precise experimental data on $\eta\to 3\pi$ decays should be based on the chiral expansion of the amplitude supplemented with a Khuri-Treiman type dispersive treatment of the final-state interactions. We discuss an extension of this formalism which allows to estimate the effects of the $a_0(980)$ and $f_0(980)$ resonances and their mixing on the $\eta\to 3\pi$ amplitudes. Matrix generalisations of the equations describing elastic $\pi\pi$ rescattering with $I=0,\,2$ are introduced which accomodate both $\pi\pi/K\bar{K}$ and $\eta\pi/K\bar{K}$ coupled-channel rescattering. Isospin violation induced by the physical …
Exclusive semileptonic heavy meson decays including lepton mass effects
1990
We discuss the exclusive semi-leptonic (s.l.) bottom meson decaysB→D(D*)+l+v where we include non-zero lepton mass effects in the kinematics and dynamics. We develop the general formalism for the non-zero lepton mass case. We then look at how rates, spectra and angular correlations are affected by non-zero lepton masses in the context of a specific spectator quark model. Numerical results are presented for s.l. decays involving thee-, μ- and τ-leptons. We also discuss the s.l. decaysB→π(ρ),D→K(K*) and the free quark decay model.
Radiative corrections in Dalitz decays of π0, η and η′ mesons
2019
We briefly summarize current experimental and theoretical results on the two important processes of the low-energy hadron physics involving neutral pions: the Dalitz decay of π0 and the rare decay π0 → e+e−. As novel results we present the complete set of radiative corrections to the Dalitz decays η(′) → l+l−γ beyond the soft-photon approximation, i.e. over the whole range of the Dalitz plot and with no restrictions on the energy of a radiative photon. The corrections inevitably depend on the η(′) → γ*γ(*) transition form factors.
Measurement of K-e3(0) form factors
2004
The semi-leptonic decay of the neutral K meson $K^{0}_{L} \to \pi^{\pm}e^{\mp}\nu (K_{e3})$, was used to study the strangeness-changing weak interaction of hadrons. A sample of 5.6 million reconstructed events recorded by the NA48 experiment was used to measure the Dalitz plot density. Admitting all possible Lorentz-covariant couplings, the form factors for vector $(f_{+}(q^{2}))$, scalar $(f_{S})$ and tensor $(f_{T})$ interactions were measured. The linear slope of the vector form factor $\lambda_{+} = 0.0284 \pm 0.0007 \pm 0.0013$ and values for the ratios $|f_{S}/f_{+}(0)|=0.015^{+0.007}_{-0.010} \pm 0.012$ and $|f_{T}/f_{+}(0)|=0.05^{+0.03}_{-0.04} \pm 0.03$ were obtained. The values fo…
