Radiative decay into gamma-baryon of dynamically generated resonances from the vector-baryon interaction
2010
We study the radiative decay into gamma and a baryon of the SU(3) octet and decuplet of nine and ten resonances that are dynamically generated from the interaction of vector mesons with baryons of the octet and the decuplet, respectively. We obtain quite different partial decay widths for the various resonances, and for different charge states of the same resonance, suggesting that the experimental investigation of these radiative decays should bring much information on the nature of these resonances. For the case of baryons of the octet we determine the helicity amplitudes and compare them with experimental data when available.
Radiative return at e+e- factories
2002
The energy dependence of the electron - positron hadronic cross section can be measured not only by a straightforward energy scan, but also by means of the radiative return method. To provide extensive comparisons between theory and experiment a Monte Carlo event generator is an indispensable tool. We have developed such a generator called PHOKHARA, which simulates e+e- -> mesons + photon(s) processes. In this paper we present its latest tests and upgrades.
Radiative decay intoγPof the low lying axial-vector mesons
2008
We evaluate the radiative decay into a pseudoscalar meson and a photon of the whole set of the axial-vector mesons dynamically generated from the vector-pseudoscalar meson interaction. We take into account tree level and loop diagrams coming from the axial-vector decay into a vector and a pseudoscalar meson. We find a large span for the values of the radiative widths of the different axial-vector mesons. In particular, we evaluate the radiative decay into K{gamma} of the two K{sub 1}(1270) states, recently claimed theoretically, and discuss the experimental values quoted so far on the assumption of only one state.
Dynamically generated resonances from the vector octet-baryon decuplet interaction and their radiative decays into γ-baryon decuplet
2009
The dynamically generated resonances from vector meson-baryon decuplet are studied using Lagrangians of the hidden gauge theory for vector interactions. One shows that some of the generated states can be associated with some known baryon resonances in the PDG data, while others are predictions for new states. Furthermore, we calculate the radiative decay widths of these resonances into a photon and a baryon decuplet.
Oscillations, neutrino masses and scales of new physics
1999
We show that all the available experimental information involving neutrinos can be accounted for within the framework of already existing models where neutrinos have zero mass at tree level, but obtain a small Dirac mass by radiative corrections.
Searching for new physics in leptonic decays of bottomonium
2002
New Physics can show up in various well-known processes already studied in the Standard Model, in particular by modifying decay rates to some extent. In this work, I examine leptonic decays of $\Upsilon$ vector resonances of bottomonium below $B\bar{B}$ production, subsequent to a magnetic dipole radiative structural transition of the vector resonance yielding a pseudoscalar continuum state, searching for the existence of a light Higgs-like neutral boson that would imply a slight but experimentally measurable breaking of lepton universality.
Radiative and non radiative muon capture on the proton in heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory
1998
We have evaluated the amplitude for muon capture by a proton, mu + p --> n + nu, to O(p^3) within the context of heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory (HBChPT) using the new O(p^3) Lagrangian of Ecker and Mojzis (E&M). We obtain expressions for the standard muon capture form factors and determine three of the coefficients of the E&M Lagrangian, namely, b_7, b_{19}, and b_{23}. We describe progress on the next step, a calculation of the radiative muon capture process, mu + p --> n + nu + gamma.
Compton scattering on the pion and radiative pion photoproduction from the proton
1994
The contribution of the pion polarizabilities to radiative pion photoproduction has been investigated. It has been shown how an extrapolation of future experimental data on radiative pion photoproduction to the pion pole can give information on the polarizabilities of pion.
Radiative corrections for Dalitz decays of π0, η(′) and Σ0
2020
Abstract We briefly summarize current experimental and theoretical results on the π 0 Dalitz decay, and provide a new value for the ratio R = Γ ( π 0 → e + e − γ ( γ ) ) / Γ ( π 0 → γ γ ) = 11.978 ( 6 ) × 10 − 3 , which is by two orders of magnitude more precise than the current PDG average. This value is obtained using the complete set of the next-to-leading-order radiative corrections in the QED sector, and incorporates up-to-date values of the π 0 -transition-form-factor slope. Furthermore, we present the complete set of radiative corrections for the Dalitz decays η ( ′ ) → l + l − γ beyond the soft-photon approximation. The corrections inevitably depend on the η ( ′ ) → γ ⁎ γ ( ⁎ ) tran…
Spin asymmetriesA1and structure functionsg1of the proton and the deuteron from polarized high energy muon scattering
1998
We present the final results of the spin asymmetries A1 and the spin structure functions g1 of the proton and the deuteron in the kinematic range 0.0008<x<0.7 and 0.2<Q2<100 GeV2. For the determination of A1, in addition to the usual method which employs inclusive scattering events and includes a large radiative background at low x, we use a new method which minimizes the radiative background by selecting events with at least one hadron as well as a muon in the final state. We find that this hadron method gives smaller errors for x<0.02, so it is combined with the usual method to provide the optimal set of results.
