We analyze the decays $B^0 to a^pm_0 pi^mp$ and $B^{-,0} to f_0 K^{-,0}$ and show that within the factorization approximation a phenomenological consistent picture can be obtained. We show that in this approach the $O_6$ operator provides the dominant contributions to the suppressed channel $B^0 to a^+_0 pi^-$. When the $a_0$ is considered a two quark state, evaluation of the annihilation form factor using Perturbative $QCD$ implies that this contribution is not negligible, and furthermore it can interfere constructively or destructively with other penguin contributions. As a consequence of this ambiguity, the positive identification of $B^0 to pi^+ a_0^-$ can not distinguish between the two or four quark assignment of the $a_0$. According to our calculation, a best candidate to distinguish the nature of $a_0$ scalar is $Br(B^-to pi^0a_0^-)$ since the predictions for a four quark model is one order of magnitude smaller than for the two quark assignment. When the scalars are seen as two quarks states, simple theoretical assumptions based on SU(2) isospin symmetry provide relations between different B decays involving one scalar and one pseudoscalar meson.

The $a_0^0(980)-f_0(980)$ mixing is one of the most potential tools to learn about the nature of $a_0^0(980)$ and $f_0(980)$. Using the $f_0(980)$-$a_0^0(980)$ mixing intensity $xi_{af}$ measured recently at BESIII, we calculate the the branching ratio of the the isospin violation decay $J/psi rightarrowgammaeta_c rightarrow gamma pi^0 a_0^0(1450)rightarrow gamma pi^0 a_0^0(980)f_0(500)rightarrow gamma pi^0 f_0(980) f_0(500) rightarrow gamma pi^0 pi^+pi^- pi^+pi^-$. The value of the branching ratio is found to be $O(10^{-6})$, which can be observed with $10^{10}$ $J/psi$ events collected at BESIII. The narrow peak from the $f_0(980)$-$a_0^0(980)$ mixing in the $pi^+pi^-$ mass square spectrum can also be observed. In addition, we study the non-resonant decay $a_0^0(1450)rightarrow f_0(980) pi^+pi^-(text{non-resonant})$, which is dominated by the $a_0^0(980)$-$f_{0}(980)$ mixing. We find that the non-resonant decay $a_0^0(1450)rightarrow f_0(980) pi^+pi^-$ and the decay $a_0^0(1450)rightarrow f_0(980) f_0(500)$ can be combined to measure the mixing intensity $xi_{af}$ in experiment. These decays are the perfect complement to the decay $chi_{c1}rightarrow f_{0}(980)pi^{0}topi^{+}pi^{-}pi^{0}$ which had been observed at BESIII, the observations of them will make the measurement of the mixing intensity $xi_{af}$ more precisely.
In this work, we have investigated the process $D_s^+to K^+ K^- pi^+$, taking into account the contributions from the $S$-wave pseudoscalar-pseudoscalar interaction within the chiral unitary approach, and also the intermediate $phi$ resonance. By analyzing the BESIII and {it BABAR} measurements, we conclude that the $f_0(980)$ state, dynamically generated from the $S$-wave pseudoscalar-pseudoscalar interaction, gives the dominant contribution close to the $K^+K^-$ threshold in the $K^+K^-$ invariant mass distribution of the decay $D_s^+to K^+ K^- pi^+$ in $S$-wave. On the other hand, our results imply that the lineshape adopted by BESIII and {it BABAR} for the resonances $a_0(980)$ and $f_0(980)$ is not advisable in the fit to the data close to the $K^+K^-$ threshold.
The Standard Model (SM) predicts that $Delta A_{rm CP}$, the difference between the direct CP asymmetries for the modes $B^+to pi^0 K^+$ and $B^0to pi^- K^+$ that are related by weak isospin, should be close to zero. There has been a recent claim by the LHCb Collaboration that the measured value of $Delta A_{rm CP}$ shows an uncomfortable tension with the SM prediction, almost at the $8sigma$ level. Motivated by this claim, we critically re-examine the data on all the $Bto pi K$ modes, including the CP asymmetries and CP-averaged branching fractions. From a combined Bayesian analysis with the topological amplitudes and their phases as the free parameters, we find that the best-fit region has a large overlap with the parameter space favoured in the SM, albeit with some enhancement for the electroweak penguin and the colour-suppressed tree amplitudes, consistent with the findings of earlier studies. This `SM-like region perfectly explains $Delta A_{rm CP}$ and hence we conclude that there is not yet enough motivation to go beyond the SM.
We make a theoretical study of the $eta(1405) to pi^{0} f_0(980)$ and $eta(1405) to pi^{0} a_0(980)$ reactions with an aim to determine the isospin violation and the mixing of the $f_0(980)$ and $a_0(980)$ resonances. We make use of the chiral unitary approach where these two resonances appear as composite states of two mesons, dynamically generated by the meson-meson interaction provided by chiral Lagrangians. We obtain a very narrow shape for the $f_0(980)$ production in agreement with a BES experiment. As to the amount of isospin violation, or $f_0(980)$ and $a_0(980)$ mixing, assuming constant vertices for the primary $eta(1405)rightarrow pi^{0}Kbar{K}$ and $eta(1405)rightarrow pi^{0}pi^{0}eta$ production, we find results which are much smaller than found in the recent experimental BES paper, but consistent with results found in two other related BES experiments. We have tried to understand this anomaly by assuming an I=1 mixture in the $eta(1405)$ wave function, but this leads to a much bigger width of the $f_0(980)$ mass distribution than observed experimentally. The problem is solved by using the primary production driven by $eta to K^* bar K$ followed by $K^* to K pi$, which induces an extra singularity in the loop functions needed to produce the $f_0(980)$ and $a_0(980)$ resonances. Improving upon earlier work along the same lines, and using the chiral unitary approach, we can now predict absolute values for the ratio $Gamma(pi^0, pi^+ pi^-)/Gamma(pi^0, pi^0 eta)$ which are in fair agreement with experiment. We also show that the same results hold if we had the $eta(1475)$ resonance or a mixture of these two states, as seems to be the case in the BES experiment.
In the framework of the QCD factorization approach, we study the localized $CP$ violations of the $B^-rightarrow K^- pi^+pi^-$ decay with and without $a_0^0(980)-f_0(980)$ mixing mechanism, respectively, and find that the localized $CP$ violation can be enhanced by this mixing effect when the mass of the $pi^+pi^-$ pair is in the vicinity of the $f_0(980)$ resonance. The corresponding theoretical prediction results are $mathcal{A}_{CP}(B^-rightarrow K f_0 rightarrow K^-pi^+pi^-)=[0.24, 0.36]$ and $mathcal{A}_{CP}(B^-rightarrow K^- f_0(a_0) rightarrow K^-pi^+pi^-)=[0.33, 0.52]$, respectively. Meanwhile, we also calculate the branching fraction of the $B^-rightarrow K^-f_0(980)rightarrow K^-pi^+pi^-$ decay, which is consistent with the experimental results. We suggest that $a_0^0(980)-f_0(980)$ mixing mechanism should be considered when studying the $CP$ violation of the $B$ or $D$ mesons decays theoretically and experimentally.
