Production of meson pairs, involving tensor and pseudotensor mesons, in photon-photon collisions


الملخص بالإنكليزية

Starting from a bound-state model of weakly bound quarks for ($q bar{q}$) mesons, we derive a formalism for computing the production or decay of such mesons, whatever the value of their internal orbital angular momentum L. That approach appears as a natural generalization of the Brodsky-Lepage formalism (valid only for L=0) that has been widely used in recent years for the computation of exclusive processes in perturbative QCD. We here apply it to the production, in photon-photon collisions, of: i) tensor-meson pairs; ii) pseudotensor-meson pairs; iii) hybrid pairs made of a pion and a pseudotensor meson. The numerical results we obtain allow for some hope of experimentally identifying such pairs, in the charged channels, at high-energy e^+e^- colliders of the next generation, provided integrated luminosities as high as $approx 10^{40} cm^{-2}$ can be reached.
