Quarks as building blocks of hadrons: meson (qq), baryon (qqq) • Quarks are not free due to QCD colour force (colour confinement). • Chiral symmetry spontaneous breaking gives masses to quarks. • Hadrons, with rich internal structures, are the smallest objects in Nature that cannot be separated to be further finer free particles. Convention (Particle Data Group): 1) Quark has spin 1/2 and baryon number 1/3; 2) Quark has positive parity and antiquark has negative parity; 3) The flavor of a quark has the same sign as its charge.

Isospin violated process
Isospin violated process
For the isospin violated decays, the 12% rule has been violated. One cannot expect the 12% rule to hold in exclusive hadronic decays. For those channels exhibiting large deviations from the empirical 12%, their EM contributions to 'VP are also relatively large.
Evidence for large EM transition interferences in : Large branching ratio differences exist between the charged and neutral K*K-bar implies significant isospin violations. A Right = Left = with

Including EM and strong transitions (G. Li, Q. Z. and C.H. Chang, hep-ph/0701020)
A brief summary • For the isospin violated decays, the 12% rule has been violated due to the contributions from the form factor corrections. One cannot expect the 12% rule to hold in exclusive hadronic decays. • For those channels exhibiting large deviations from the empirical 12%, their EM contributions to ’ VP are also relatively large. Interferences from the EM transitions are important in the branching ratio fraction between J/psi and psi-prime. This could be one of the sources causing the large deviations from the empirical 12% rule (Zhao, Li and Chang, PLB645, 173 (2007)). • One has to combine the strong interaction in the study of “ puzzle”, and this has been done in a QCD factorization scheme (Li, Zhao and Chang, hep-ph/0701020).
Isospin violations in V V P • Two sources: • I) Isospin violation via electromagnetic decays • EM interaction does not conserve isospin • II) Isospin violation in strong decays • u and d quark have different masses • Correlation with the OZI rule violation

Meson spectroscopy I) QQ mesons Quarks as building blocks of hadrons: meson (qq), baryon (qqq) Convention (Particle Data Group): 1) Quark has spin 1/2 and baryon number 1/3; 2) Quark has positive parity and antiquark has negative parity; 3) The flavor of a quark has the same sign as its charge.
Conventional QQ mesons: • Mesons are bound state of QQ with baryon number B=0; • The parity is given by P=(1)L+1with orbital angular momentum L; • The meson spin J is given by |LS| < J < | L+S| , where S=0, 1 are • the total spin of the quarks. • 4. Charge conjugate is defined as C=(1)L+S for mesons made of quark • and its own antiquark. For light quarks: u, d, and s, the SU(3) flavor symmetry constrains the number of flavor QQ multiplet: 3 3 = 8 1 3 4 1 1
II) Non-QQ mesons Type (a): JPC are not allowed by QQ configuration For states in natural spin-parity series P=(1)L+1 =(1)J , the state must have S=1 and hence CP=(1)(L+S)+(L+1) =+1. Therefore, mesons with natural spin-parity but CP= 1 will be forbidden, e.g. 0+, 1+, 2+, 3+, … L + Natural: 0++, 1, 2++, 3, … Unnatural: ( 0), 1++, 2,3++, … S=1 L + Unnatural: 0+, 1+, 2+, 3+, … S=0
Exotic type 1: Mesons have the same JPC as a QQ, but cannot be accommodated into the SU(3) nonet: 3 3 = 8 1 3 4 1 1 f0(1810) f0(1790) Mass f0(1710) Glueball ? QQ-glue mixing ? f0(1500) f0(1370) (1020) (958) f0(980) Jaffe’s Multiquarks? Meson molecule ? (782) /f0(600) (547) 0 1 0 I=0
