Leptonic decay widths and the corresponding decay constants of neutral vector mesons are calculated in the framework of a square-root potential model of independent quarks. Starting with the assumption that a strong correlation exists between the momenta of the quark and anti-quark inside the meson so as to have their total momenta identically zero in the center-of-mass frame of the meson, we find the quark and anti-quark momentum distribution amplitude which is used to determine the transition probability amplitude for the leptonic decay of mesons. The calculated results for leptonic decay widths and the electromagnetic decay constants for the vector mesons \rho, \omega, \phi and \psi are in good agrement with the corresponding experimental values. The results for the heavy meson \Upsilon are somewhat lower than the experimental values.

A relativistic power-law potential model of independent quarks is used to study the leptonic decays of neutral vector mesons. Here, the transition probability amplitude for leptonic decay of meson is determined from the momentum distribution function which is found from the assumption of a strong correlation existing between the momenta of quark and antiquark inside the meson. The model parameters are first determined from the application of the model to study the ground state spectra of ρ, ω, ϕ, ψ and ϒ mesons together with the radiative decay widths of mesons. The same model with no adjustable parameters is then used to evaluate the leptonic decay widths and the electromagnetic decay constants for the vector mesons ρ, ω, ϕ, ψ and ϒ. The calculated results are in remarkable agreement with the corresponding experimental values.

Partial decay widths of the heavy-light mesons, D, Ds, B, and Bs, emitting one chiral particle (π or K) or photon γ are evaluated in the framework of a relativistic potential model. Decay amplitudes are calculated by keeping the Lorentz invariance as far as possible and use has been made of the Lorentz-boosted relativistic wave functions of the heavy-light mesons. One of predictions of our calculation is very narrow widths of a few keV for yet undiscovered Bs(0+, 1+) mesons corresponding to 2S+1LJ = 3P0 and "3P1" assuming their masses to be 5617 and 5682 MeV, respectively, as calculated in our former paper. Sizable radiative decay widths of D* or [Formula: see text] are obtained by including the 1st order corrections in 1/mQ expansion, in the unit of keV; Γ(D*0 → D0 + γ) = 9.8, Γ (D*+ → D+ + γ) = 0.71, [Formula: see text] and large radiative decay widths of DsJ are obtained compared with non-relativistic results.

We study the masses and decay constants of heavy–light flavor mesons D, Ds, B and Bs in a QCD potential model. The mesonic wave function is used to compute the masses of D and B mesons in the ground state and the wave function is transformed to momentum space to estimate the pseudoscalar decay constants of these mesons. The leptonic decay widths and branching ratio of these mesons for different leptonic channels are also computed to compare with the experimental values. The results are found to be compatible with available data.

A recently proposed strictly phenomenological static quark–antiquark potential belonging to the generality V(r) = -Ar-α + κrβ + V0 is tested with heavy quarkonia in the context of the shifted large N-expansion method. This nonrelativistic potential model fits the spin-averaged mass spectra of the [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] quarkonia within a few MeV and also the five experimentally known leptonic decay widths of the [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] vector states. Further, we compute the hyperfine splittings of the bottomonium spectrum as well as the fine and hyperfine splittings of the charmonium spectrum. We give predictions for not yet observed Bc splittings. The model is then used to predict the masses of the remaining quarkonia and the leptonic decay widths of the two pseudoscalar [Formula: see text] states. Our results are compared with other models to gauge the reliability of the predictions and point out differences.

In this paper we have calculated transition magnetic moments and radiative decay widths of light and heavy mesons using a relativistic potential model of independent quarks with its parameters determined from a fit to the mass of ground state mesons in the strange, charm and bottom flavor sectors. The results are in agreement with the experimental data.

A simple phenomenological potential model is suggested to describe the interaction between the constituent quarks of meson systems. Taking the spin-dependence terms in consideration modifies some previous potential models. The resonance masses and the leptonic decay widths of [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] mesons are calculated using the nonrelativistic wave equation. A comparison between the present calculations and the available experimental results are given.
