Light-front quark model analysis of heavy meson radiative decays

preprint2007arXivOpen access

Abstract

We present the magnetic dipole(M1M1) transitions V→PγV\to Pγ of various heavy-flavored mesons such as (D,D∗,Ds,Ds∗,ηc,J/ψ)(D,D^*,D_s,D^{*}_s,η_c, J/ψ) and (B,B∗,Bs,Bs∗,ηb,Υ)(B,B^*,B_s,B^*_s,η_b,Υ) using the light-front quark model constrained by the variational principle for the QCD-motivated effective Hamiltonian. The weak decay constants of heavy mesons and the decay widths for V→PγV\to Pγ are calculated. The radiative decay for Υ→ηbγΥ\toη_{b}γ process is found to be very helpful to determine the unmeasured mass of ηbη_b. Our numerical results are overall in good agreement with the available experimental data as well as other theoretical model calculations.
