چکیده
Using 58 million J/ψ events taken with the BESII detector, a search for ηc CP violating decays into ππ and KK̄ has been performed. No clear ηc signal is observed, and upper limits for B(ηc → ππ) and B(ηc → KK̄) are given at the 90% confidence level, B(J/ψ → γηc) · B(ηc → π π) < 1.1 × 10, B(J/ψ → γηc) · B(ηc → π π) < 0.71 × 10, B(J/ψ → γηc) · B(ηc → K K) < 0.96 × 10 and B(J/ψ → γηc) ·B(ηc → K 0 SK 0 S) < 0.53 × 10 . a Current address: Iowa State University, Ames, IA 500113160, USA b Current address: Purdue University, West Lafayette, IN 47907, USA c Current address: Cornell University, Ithaca, NY 14853, USA d Current address: Laboratoire de l’Accélératear Linéaire, Orsay, F-91898, France 2 M.

Evidence for a Scalar Glueball
We show that the newly discovered scalar meson f0(1500) at LEAR has properties compatible with the lightest scalar glueball predicted by lattice QCD and incompatible with a QQ state. We suggest that decays of glueballs are into pairs of glueballs (including η, η or (ππ)S) or by mixing with nearby QQ̄ states. The partial widths of f0(1500) are in accord with this hypothesis, tests of which includ...
متن کاملHadronic Phases and Isospin Amplitudes in D ( B ) → ππ and D ( B ) → KK̄
Hadronic phases in ππ and KK̄ channels are calculated à la Regge. At the D mass one finds δππ ≃ π3 and δKK̄ ≃ −π6 in good agreement with the CLEO data while at the B mass these angles are predicted to be, respectively, 11◦ and -7◦. With the hadronic phase eKK̄ taken into account, a quark diagram decomposition of the isospin invariant amplitudes in D → KK̄ decays fits the data provided the exchange ...
متن کاملAMPLITUDE RELATIONS FOR B DECAYS INVOLVING η and η ′ 1
A class of amplitude relations for decays of B mesons is discussed. Processes involving η and η in the final state are shown to provide useful information about weak phases in some cases even in the presence of octet-singlet mixing in these states. Some of the relations are unaffected by first-order SU(3) breaking. The decays of B mesons can provide unique insights into the details of the weak ...
متن کاملf 1 ( 1285 ) decays into a 0 ( 980 ) π 0 , f 0 ( 980 ) π 0 and isospin breaking
Abstract We evaluate the decay width for the processes f1(1285)→ πa0(980) and f1(1285)→ πf0(980) taking into account that all three resonances are dynamically generated from the meson-meson interaction, the f1(1285) from K ∗K̄ − c.c and the a0(980), f0(980) from πη,KK̄ and ππ,KK̄ respectively. We use a triangular mechanism similar to that of the η(1405) → ππη, which provides a decay width for f1(1...
متن کاملThe Light Scalar Mesons a0/f0(980) at COSY-Jülich
The light scalar mesons a0/ f0(980) are being investigated at COSY-Jülich by detecting the strong decays into KK̄ and πη /ππ as well as radiative decays into vector mesons. Selected results are discussed with emphasis on recent measurements at the ANKE and WASA spectrometers.
