N* and Delta* decays into N pi0 pi0

Decays of baryon resonances in the second and the third resonance region into N pi0 pi0 are studied by photoproduction of two neutral pions off protons. Partial decay widths of N* and Delta* resonances decaying into Delta(1232) pi, N(ππ)_{S}, N(1440)P_{11} pi, and N(1520)D_{13} pi are determined in a partial wave analysis of this data, and data from other reactions. Several partial decay widths were not known before. Interesting decay patterns are observed which are not even qualitatively reproduced by quark model calculations. In the second resonance region, decays into Delta(1232) pi dominate clearly. The N(ππ)_{S}-wave provides a significant contribution to the cross section, especially in the third resonance region. The P_{13}(1720) properties found here are at clear variance to PDG values.

New results on the Roper resonance and the P_{11} partial wave

Properties of the Roper resonance, the first scalar excitation of the nucleon, are determined. Pole positions and residues of the $P_{11}$ partial wave are studied in a combined analysis of pion- and photo-induced reactions. We find the Roper pole at $\{(1371\pm7)-i(92\pm10)\}$ MeV and an elasticity of $0.61\pm 0.03$. The largest decay coupling is found for the $Nσ$ ($σ=(ππ)$-$S$-wave). The analysis is based on new data on $γp\to pπ^0π^0$ for photons in the energy range from the two-pion threshold to 820 MeV from TAPS at Mainz and from 0.4 to 1.3 GeV from Crystal Barrel at Bonn and includes further data from other experiments. The partial wave analysis excludes the possibility that the Roper resonance is split into two states with different partial decay widths.

Further evidence for N(1900)P_{13} from photoproduction of hyperons

We report further evidence for $N(1900)P_{13}$ from an analysis of a large variety of photo- and pion-induced reactions, in particular from the new CLAS measurements of double polarization observables for photoproduction of hyperons. The data are consistent with two classes of solutions both requiring contributions from $N(1900)P_{13}$ but giving different $N(1900)P_{13}$ pole positions. $(M-iΓ/2) = (1915\pm50)-i(90\pm25)$ MeV covers both solutions. The small elasticity of 10% or less explains why it was difficult to observe the state in $πN$ elastic scattering. $N(1900)P_{13}$ is a 2-star resonance which is predicted by symmetric three-quark models. In diquark-quark models, the existence of the state is not expected.

Baryon-baryon and baryon-antibaryon interaction amplitudes in the spin--momentum operator expansion method

Partial wave scattering amplitudes in baryon-baryon and baryon-antibaryon collisions and amplitudes for the production and decay of baryon resonances are constructed in the framework of the spin-momentum operator expansion method. The approach is relativistically invariant and it allows us to perform combined analyses of different reactions imposing analyticity and unitarity directly. The role of final state interactions (triangle and box diagrams) is discussed.

Partial decay widths of baryons in the spin-momentum operator expansion method

The cross sections for photo- and pion-induced production of baryon resonances and their partial decay widths to the two--body and multi--body final states are calculated in the framework of the operator expansion method. The approach is fully relativistic invariant, and it allows us to perform combined analyses of different reactions imposing directly the analyticity and unitarity constraints. All formulae are given explicitly in the form used by the Crystal Barrel collaboration in the partial wave analysis.

Quark--antiquark states and their radiative transitions in terms of the spectral integral equation. {\Huge I.} Bottomonia

In the framework of the spectral integral equation, we consider the $b\bar b$ states and their radiative transitions. We reconstruct the $b\bar b$ interaction on the basis of data for the levels of the bottomonium states with $J^{PC}=0^{-+}$, $1^{--}$, $0^{++}$, $1^{++}$, $2^{++}$ as well as the data for the radiative transitions $Υ(3S) \toγχ_{bJ}(2P) $ and $Υ(2S) \toγχ_{bJ}(1P) $ with $J=0,1,2$. We calculate bottomonium levels with the radial quantum numbers $n\le 6$, their wave functions and corresponding radiative transitions. The ratios $Br[χ_{bJ}(2P)\toγΥ(2S)]/Br[χ_{bJ}(2P)\toγΥ(1S)]$ for $J=0,1,2$ are found in the agreement with data. We determine the $b\bar b$ component of the photon wave function using the data for the $e^+e^-$ annihilation, $e^+e^- \toΥ(9460)$, $Υ(10023)$, $Υ(10036)$, $Υ(10580)$, $ Υ(10865)$, $Υ(11019)$, and predict partial widths of the two-photon decays $η_{b0}\to\ggam$, $χ_{b0}\to\ggam$, $χ_{b2}\to\ggam$ for the radial excitation states below $B\bar B$ threshold ($n\le 3$).

Quark--antiquark states and their radiative transitions in terms of the spectral integral equation. {\Huge II.} Charmonia

In the precedent paper of the authors (hep-ph/0510410), the $b\bar b$ states were treated in the framework of the spectral integral equation, together with simultaneous calculations of radiative decays of the considered bottomonia. In the present paper, such a study is carried out for the charmonium $(c\bar c)$ states. We reconstruct the interaction in the $c\bar c$-sector on the basis of data for the charmonium levels with $J^{PC}=0^{-+}$, $1^{--}$, $0^{++}$, $1^{++}$, $2^{++}$, $1^{+-}$ and radiative transitions $ψ(2S)\toγχ_{c0}(1P)$, $γχ_{c1}(1P)$, $γχ_{c2}(1P)$, $γη_{c}(1S)$ and $χ_{c0}(1P)$, $χ_{c1}(1P)$, $χ_{c2}(1P)\toγJ/ψ$. The $c\bar c$ levels and their wave functions are calculated for the radial excitations with $n\le 6$. Also, we determine the $c\bar c$ component of the photon wave function using the $e^+e^-$ annihilation data: $e^+e^- \to J/ψ(3097)$, $ψ(3686)$, $ψ(3770)$, $ψ(4040)$, $ ψ(4160)$, $ψ(4415)$ and perform the calculations of the partial widths of the two-photon decays for the $n=1$ states: $η_{c0}(1S)$, $χ_{c0}(1P)$, $χ_{c2}(1P)\toγγ$, and $n=2$ states: $η_{c0}(2S)\toγγ$, $χ_{c0}(2P)$, $χ_{c2}(2P)\to γγ$. We discuss the status of the recently observed $c\bar c$ states X(3872) and Y(3941): according to our results, the X(3872) can be either $χ_{c1}(2P)$ or $η_{c2}(1D)$, while Y(3941) is $χ_{c2}(2P)$.

Quark--antiquark states and their radiative transitions in terms of the spectral integral equation. {\Huge III.} Light mesons

We continue the investigation of mesons in terms of the spectral integral equation initiated before [hep-ph/0510410, hep-ph/0511005] for the $b\bar b$ and $c\bar c$ systems: in this paper we consider the light-quark ($u, d,s$) mesons with masses $M\le 3$ GeV. The calculations have been performed for the mesons lying on linear trajectories in the $(n,M^2)$-planes, where $n$ is the radial quantum number. Our consideration relates to the $q\bar q$ states with one component in the flavor space, with the quark and antiquark masses equal to each other, such as $π(0^{-+})$, $ρ(1^{--})$, $ω(1^{--})$, $ϕ(1^{--})$, $a_0(0^{++})$, $a_1(1^{++})$, $a_2(2^{++})$, $b_1(1^{+-})$, $f_2(2^{++})$, $π_2(2^{-+})$, $ρ_3(3^{--})$, $ω_3(3^{--})$, $ϕ_3(3^{--})$, $π_4(4^{-+})$ at $n\le 6$. We obtained the wave functions and mass values of mesons lying on these trajectories. The corresponding trajectories are linear, in agreement with data. We have calculated the two-photon decays $π\to γγ$, $a_0(980)\to γγ$, $a_2(1320)\to γγ$, $f_2(1285)\to γγ$, $f_2(1525)\to γγ$ and radiative transitions $ρ\toγπ$, $ω\toγπ$, that agree qualitatively with the experiment. On this basis, we extract the singular part of the interaction amplitude, which corresponds to the so-called "confinement interaction". The description of the data requires the presence of the strong $t$-channel singularities for both scalar and vector exchanges.

Radiative decays of quarkonium states, momentum operator expansion and nilpotent operators

We present the method of calculation of radiative decays of composite quark-antiquark systems with different J^{PC}: (Q\bar Q)_{in} -> gamma (Q\bar Q)_{out}. The method is relativistic invariant, it is based on the double dispersion relation integrals over the masses of composite mesons, it can be used for the high spin particles and provides us with the gauge invariant transition amplitudes. We apply this method to the case when the photon is emitted by a constituent in the intermediate state (additive quark model). We perform the momentum operator expansion of the spin amplitudes for the decay processes. The problem of nilpotent spin operators is discussed.

Sector of the $2^{++}$ mesons: observation of the tensor glueball

Data of the Crystal Barrel and L3 collaborations clarified essentially the situation in the $2^{++}$ sector in the mass region up to 2400 MeV, demonstrating the linearity of $(n,M^2)$ trajectories, where $n$ is the radial quantum number of a quark-antiquark state with mass $M$. We discuss these data and show that there exists a superfluous state for the $(n,M^2)$ trajectories: a broad resonance $f_2(2000)$. We pay special attention to the reactions $p\bar p\toππ,ηη,ηη'$ in the mass region 1990--2400 MeV where, together with $f_2(2000)$, four relatively narrow resonances are seen: $f_2(1920)$, $f_2(2020)$, $f_2(2240)$, $f_2(2300)$. We analyse the branching ratios of all these resonances and show that only the decay couplings of the broad state $f_2(2000)\toπ^0π^0,ηη, ηη'$ satisfy relations inherent in the glueball decay.

Decays of Baryon Resonances into K Lambda, K^+ Sigma^0 and K^0 Sigma^+

Cross sections, beam asymmetries, and recoil polarisations for the reactions gamma p to K^+ Lambda ; gamma to K^+ Sigma^0, and gamma p to K^0 Sigma^+ have been measured by the SAPHIR, CLAS, and LEPS collaborations with high statistics and good angular coverage for centre-of-mass energies between 1.6 and 2.3 GeV. The combined analysis of these data with data from pi and eta photoproduction reveals evidence for new baryon resonances in this energy region. A new P_{11} state with mass 1840 MeV and width 140 MeV was observed contributing to most of the fitted reactions. The data demand the presence of two D_{13} states at 1870 and 2170 MeV.

Observation of Observation of tensor glueball in the reactions p anti-p -> pi-pi, eta-eta, eta-eta'

Partial wave analysis of the reactions p anti-p -> pi-pi, eta-eta, eta-eta' in the region of invariant masses 1900-2400 MeV indicates to the existence of four relatively narrow tensor-isoscalar resonances f_2(1920), f_2(2020), f_2(2240), f_2(2300) and the broad state f_2(2000). The determined decay couplings of the broad resonance f_2(2000)-> pi0-pi0, eta-eta, eta-eta' satisfy the relations appropriate to those of tensor glueball, while the couplings of other tensor states do not, thus verifying the glueball nature of f_2(2000).

Determination of the quarkonium--gluonium content of the isoscalar tensor resonances $f_2(1920)$, $f_2(2020)$, $f_2(2240)$, $f_2(2300)$ and of the broad state $f_2(2000)$ based on decay couplings to $π^0π^0,ηη,ηη'$

In the reactions $p\bar p\toπ^0π^0,ηη,ηη'$ there are four relatively narrow resonances $f_2(1920)$, $f_2(2020)$, $f_2(2240)$, $f_2(2300)$, and a broad one $f_2(2000)$ in the mass region 1990--2400 MeV. In the framework of quark combinatorics we carry out an analysis of the decay constants for all five resonances. It is shown that the relations for the decay constants corresponding to the broad resonance $f_2(2000)\toπ^0π^0,ηη, ηη'$ are the same as those corresponding to a glueball. An additional argument in favour of the glueball--nature of $f_2(2000)$ is the fact that $f_2(1920)$, $f_2(2020)$, $f_2(2240)$, $f_2(2300)$ fit well the $q\bar q$ trajectories in the $(n,M^2)$-plane (where $n$ is the radial quantum number), while the broad $f_2(2000)$ resonance turns out to be an unnecessary extra state for these trajectories.

Decay $ϕ(1020)\to γf_0(980)$: analysis in the non-relativistic quark model approach

We demonstrate the possibility of a good description of the processes $ϕ(1020)\to γππ$ and $ϕ(1020)\to γf_0(980)$ within the framework of non-relativistic quark model assuming $f_0(980)$ to be dominantly quark--antiquark system. Different mechanisms of the radiative decay, that is, the emission of photon by the constituent quark (additive quark model) and charge-exchange current, are considered. We also discuss the status of the threshold theorem applied to the studied reactions, namely, the behaviour of the decay amplitude at $M_{ππ} \to m_ϕ$ and $m_{f_0}\to m_ϕ$. In conclusion the arguments favouring the $q\bar q$ origin of $f_0(980)$ are listed.

Charmed quark component of the photon wave function

We determine the c-anti-c component of the photon wave function on the basis of (i) the data on the transitions e+ e- -> J/psi(3096), psi(3686), psi(4040), psi(4415), (ii) partial widths of the two-photon decays eta_{c0}(2979), chi_{c0}(3415), chi_{c2}(3556) -> gamma-gamma, and (iii) wave functions of the charmonium states obtained by solving the Bethe-Salpeter equation for the c-anti-c system. Using the obtained c-anti-c component of the photon wave function we calculate the gamma-gamma decay partial widths for radial excitation 2S state, eta_{c0}(3594) -> gamma-gamma, and 2P states chi_{c0}(3849), chi_{c2}(3950) -> gamma-gamma.
