Abstract
A chiral SU(2) × SU(2) Lagrangian containing, besides the usual meson fields, their first radial excitations is considered. The Lagrangian is derived by bosonization of the Nambu–Jona-Lasinio (NJL) quark model with separable nonlocal interactions, with form factors corresponding to three-dimensional ground and excited state wave functions. The spontaneous breaking of chiral symmetry is governed by the NJL gap equation. The first radial excitations of the pions, ρ-and ω-mesons are described with the help of two form factors. The weak decay constant Fπ′ is calculated. The values for the decay widths of the processes ρ→2π, π′→ρπ, ρ′→2π, ρ′→ωπ and ω′→ρπ are obtained in agreement with the experimental data.
