Research Abstract |
We have measured and analyzed differential cross sections of two-photon production of meson pairs : γγ→π^+π^-,π^0π^0,π^0η and ηη at B-factory experiment, Belle. These data are of two to three orders of magnitude higher statistics than previous experiments and of only ones presently available with this level of statistics in the world. These data would shed light to properties and structures of hitherto mysterious low mass scalar mesons in the low energy region. Furthermore, they provide direct mean to check predictions on exclusive processes from QCD (Quantum Chromodynamics, theory of strong interaction) in the high energy region.
