The spin density matrix of the $omega$ has been determined for the reaction $bar{p} p , rightarrow , omega pi^0$ with unpolarized in-flight data measured by the Crystal Barrel LEAR experiment at CERN. The two main decay modes of the $omega$ into $pi^0 gamma $ and $pi^+ pi^- pi^0$ have been separately analyzed for various $bar{p}$ momenta between 600 and 1940 MeV/c. The results obtained with the usual method by extracting the matrix elements via the $omega$ decay angular distributions and with the more sophisticated method via a full partial wave analysis are in good agreement. A strong spin alignment of the $omega$ is clearly visible in this energy regime and all individual spin density matrix elements exhibit an oscillatory dependence on the production angle. In addition, the largest contributing orbital angular momentum of the $bar{p}p$ system has been identified for the different beam momenta. It increases from $L^{max}_{bar{p}p}$ = 2 at 600 MeV/c to $L^{max}_{bar{p}p}$ = 5 at 1940 MeV/c.

The decay $J/psi rightarrow omega p bar{p}$ has been studied, using $225.3times 10^{6}$ $J/psi$ events accumulated at BESIII. No significant enhancement near the $pbar{p}$ invariant-mass threshold (denoted as $X(pbar{p})$) is observed. The upper limit of the branching fraction $mathcal{B}(J/psi rightarrow omega X(pbar{p}) rightarrow omega p bar{p})$ is determined to be $3.9times10^{-6}$ at the 95% confidence level. The branching fraction of $J/psi rightarrow omega p bar{p}$ is measured to be $mathcal{B}(J/psi rightarrow omega p bar{p}) =(9.0 pm 0.2 (text{stat.})pm 0.9 (text{syst.})) times 10^{-4}$.
The s-channel annihilation of proton and antiproton into a neutral pion and a real or virtual photon followed by lepton pair emission is studied. Such mechanism is expected to play a role at moderate values of the total energy $sqrt{s}$, when the pion is emitted around $90^{circ}$ in the center of mass. A fair comparison with the existing data is obtained taking into account scattering and annihilation channels. The cross section is calculated and numerical results are given in the kinematical range accessible in the PANDA experiment at FAIR.
Using a low-background sample of $2.6times 10^5$ $J/psirightarrowomegaeta(omegarightarrowpi^{+}pi^{-}pi^{0},etarightarrowgammagamma)$ events, about 5 times larger statistics than previous experiments, we present a Dalitz plot analysis of the decay $omegarightarrowpi^{+}pi^{-}pi^{0}$. It is found that the Dalitz plot distribution differs from the pure $P$-wave phase space with a statistical significance of $18.9sigma$. The parameters from the fit to data are in reasonable agreement with those without the cross-channel effect within the dispersive framework, which indicates that the cross-channel effect in $omegarightarrowpi^+pi^-pi^0$ is not significant.
The decay $J/psi to omega p bar p$ is studied using a $5.8 times 10^7$ $J/psi$ event sample accumulated with the BES II detector at the Beijing electron-positron collider. The decay branching fraction is measured to be $B(J/psi to omega p bar p)=(9.8pm 0.3pm 1.4)times 10^{-4}$. No significant enhancement near the $pbar p$ mass threshold is observed, and an upper limit of $B(J/psi to omega X(1860))B(X(1860)to pbar p)$$ $$< 1.5 times 10^{-5}$ is determined at the 95% confidence level, where X(1860) designates the near-threshold enhancement seen in the $pbar p$ mass spectrum in $J/psi to gamma p bar p$ decays.
The most recent high-precision data on spin observables $Sigma$, $T$, $P$, $E$, $F$ and $H$ reported by the CLAS Collaboration together with the previous data on differential cross sections and spin-density-matrix elements reported by the CLAS, A2, GRAAL, SAPHIR and CBELSA/TAPS Collaborations for the reaction $gamma p to omega p$ are analyzed within an effective Lagrangian approach. The reaction amplitude is constructed by considering the $t$-channel $pi$ and $eta$ exchanges, the $s$-channel nucleon and nucleon resonances exchanges, the $u$-channel nucleon exchange and the generalized contact current. The latter accounts effectively for the interaction current and ensures that the full photoproduction amplitude is gauge invariant. It is shown that all the available CLAS data can be satisfactorily described by considering the $N(1520)3/2^-$, $N(1700)3/2^-$, $N(1720)3/2^+$, $N(1860)5/2^+$, $N(1875)3/2^-$, $N(1895)1/2^-$ and $N(2060)5/2^-$ resonances in the $s$-channel. The parameters of these resonances are extracted and compared with those quoted by PDG.
