Abstract
Two-body decay widths of lowest lying and next-to-lowest lying scalar and pseudoscalar mesons are studied in generalized linear sigma model (GLSM) of low-energy QCD. This model which considers mixing between “two-quark” and “four-quark” chiral nonets has been employed to investigate various decays and scatterings in low-energy region of QCD. In this paper, [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are obtained and it is shown that two-body decay widths of lowest lying mesons are well predicted by this model while for the next-to-lowest lying mesons, only some of the decay widths agree with the experimental results. We have compared the predicted decay widths in GLSM with the results obtained in single nonet linear sigma model (SNLSM) to indicate that chiral nonet mixing greatly improves the predictions of SNLSM for decay widths.
