Towards two-body strong decay behavior of higherρandρ3mesons

Abstract

In this work, we systematically study the two-body strong decay of the = 3 states, which are observed and grouped into the = 3 meson family. By performing the phenomenological analysis, the underlying properties of these states are obtained and tested. What is more important is that abundant information of their two-body strong decays is predicted, which will be helpful to further and experimentally study these states.

High-spin mesons below 3 GeV

“…Here, the states listed as further states in PDG are marked by the superscript f. The C parity is valid only for the corresponding neutral states where the J PC quantum numbers of these high-spin states appear with isospin I = 1. We need to emphasize that ρ 3 (1690), ρ 3 (1990), and ρ 3 (2250) are not listed here since these three states have been studied in our former work [12]. In the fifth column, we list some branching ratios and decay modes experimentally observed.…”

“…After the QPC model was proposed by Micu [57], this model was further developed by the Orsay group [58][59][60][61][62]. Later, this model was widely applied to study the OZI-allowed strong decay of hadrons [12,[63][64][65][66][67][68][69][70][71][72][73][74][75][76][77][78][79].…”

“…In Ref. [12], the properties of ρ 3 (1690), ρ 3 (1990), and ρ 3 (2250) were studied, where they can be explained as n 3 D 3 (n = 1, 2, 3) states in the ρ 3 meson family, respectively. In Fig.…”

“…In the following, we apply the quark pair creation (QPC) model [23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33] to describe the OZI-allowed two-body strong decays shown in Table 2, where the QPC model was extensively adopted to study the strong decay of hadrons [5,16,[34][35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43]. In the QPC model, the quark-antiquark pair is created in QCD vacuum with vacuum quantum number J PC = 0 ++ .…”

Phenomenological study of the isovector tensor meson family

“…After the QPC model [17] was proposed, this model was further developed by the Orsay group of Le Yaouanc et al [23][24][25][26][27]. Later, this model was widely applied to study the OZIallowed strong decay of hadrons [28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46].…”
