Besides the unitarity and symmetry requirements for a multi-resonance scattering amplitude, several other natural conditions can easily exclude unrealistic proposals. In particular, the behaviour of singularities under the variation of model parameters yield important information. We discuss how resonance poles should move in the complex-energy plane when coupling constants and masses are...
Modern approaches to mesons and baryons go beyond the traditional description in terms of pure valence quark-antiquark or three-quark systems confined by some infinitely rising interquark potential inspired by QCD. As most hadrons are broad to very broad resonances, with decay widths often of the same order of magnitude as the average level splittings, pretending that they are stable systems...
We perform calculations for the $\eta_c \to \eta \pi^+ \pi^-$ decay using elements of SU(3) symmetry to see the weight of different trios of pseudoscalars produced in this decay, prior to the final state interaction of the mesons. After that, the interaction of pairs of mesons, leading finally to $\eta \pi^+ \pi^-$, is done using the chiral unitary approach. We evaluate the $\pi^+ \pi^-$ and...
We will report on recent results of the KLOE-2 experiment on
the measurement of the running of the fine structure constant below 1 GeV, and the search for the light gauge boson in the mass range below 1 GeV.
We present the derivation of second-order relativistic viscous hydrodynamics from an effective Boltzmann equation for a system consisting of quasiparticles of a single species. We consider temperature-dependent masses of the quasiparticles and devise a thermodynamically-consistent framework to formulate second-order evolution equations for shear and bulk viscous pressure corrections. The main...
