Rare radiative decays of tensor mesons

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev., D; (United States)
The relativistically invariant coupling structures realized in a quark model with broken SU/sub 6/ x O/sub 3/ group symmetry are applied here to the calculation of the rare radiative decays of tensor mesons. In particular, we examine the decay modes (f, A/sub 2/) ..-->.. ..gamma gamma.., rho..gamma.., and ..omega gamma.., based on the additional requirement of vector-meson dominance of the electromagnetic interactions of hadrons. Calculated partial decay rates are compared with previous estimates.
