D-meson Mixing in Broken Su (3) * Disclaimer
نویسنده
چکیده
A fit of amplitudes to the experimental branching ratios to two mesons is used to construct a new estimate of neutral D mixing which includes SU(3) breaking. The result is dominated by the experimental uncertainties. This suggests that the charm sector may not be as sensitive to new physics as previously thought and that long-distance calculations may not be useful.

Expansion of QCD
We identify “spurious” states in meson-baryon scattering, those that appear in QCD for Nc > 3 but decouple for Nc = 3. The key observation is that the relevant flavor SU(3) Clebsch-Gordan coefficients contain factors of 1−3/Nc. We show that this method works even if SU(3) is badly broken. We also observe that resonant scattering poles lying outside naive quark model multiplets are not necessari...
متن کاملCan Nearby Resonances Enhance D 0 − D̄ 0 Mixing ?
We consider the possibility that D − D̄ mixing undergoes resonant enhancement. Various scenarios are explored, including the potential effects of nearby pseudoscalar or scalar quark-antiquark (QQ̄) resonances as well as of hybrid quark-antiquark-gluon QQ̄G states. Assuming reasonable values for the resonance parameters we find relatively sizeable contributions from individual resonances to both ∆m...
متن کاملBroken Su(3) Flavor Symmetry and Tribimaximal Neutrino Mixing 1
Recent work on a lepton mass matrix model based on an SU(3) flavor symmetry which is broken into S4 is reviewed. The flavor structures of the masses and mixing are caused by VEVs of SU(2)L-singlet scalars φ which are nonets (8+1) of the SU(3) flavor symmetry, and which are broken into 2 + 3 + 3 and 1 of S4. If we require the invariance under the transformation (φ, φ) → (−φ(8),+φ(1)) for the sup...

Simple quark models for the low lying vector mesons suggest a mixing between the u– and d–flavors and a violation of the isospin symmetry for the ρ − ω system much stronger than observed. It is shown that the chiral dynamics, especially the QCD anomaly, is responsible for a restoration of the isospin symmetry in the ρ − ω system. We should like to report on an interesting phenomenon , thus far ...
متن کاملDynamics of Multiquark Systems: Mass, Width and Exotics
The quark model describes mesons and baryons in terms of constituent quarks. Mesons are qq̄ states and baryons are qqq, while all the other combinations of quarks, such as qqq̄q̄, qqqqq̄, are called exotic. The constituent quarks must be effective degrees of freedom which are valid only in low energy regime. They must have the same conserved charges as the QCD quarks: baryon number 1/3, spin 1/2, c...
