Vector-meson dominance from counting rules — •Stefan Leupold1 and Matthias Lutz21Institut für Theoretische Physik, Universität Giessen, Germany — 2Theory Division, GSI, Darmstadt, Germany

Recently a systematic flavour SU(3) framework has been proposed [1] to describe the strong and electromagnetic interactions of light pseudoscalar and vector mesons, with the latter represented by antisymmetric tensor fields. From the corresponding leading-order Lagrangian one can deduce for which processes vector-meson dominance applies and for which it does not. In particular, it turned out that at leading order the hadronic three-body and also the radiative decays of vector mesons are governed by vector-meson dominance. This allows to predict the hadronic three-body decays, once the parameters are determined from the radiative decays [2]. The obtained result for the three-pion decay of the omega meson agrees very well with experiment. The partial decay widths for the rare three-body decays of the K* are predicted. Further examples are discussed where the leading-order Lagrangian does not lead to vector-meson dominance.
