The experimental data on the radiative decays of mesons (not involving charm) are reviewed. The consistency of these data with SU(3) symmetry, vector dominance, and the quark model is discussed.

The reactions of electron-position annihilation into nucleon-antinucleon pairs have been studied in a nonperturbative quark model. The work suggests that the two-step process, in which the primary [Formula: see text] pair forms first a meson and then the meson decays into baryon pair, is dominant over the one-step process in which the primary [Formula: see text] pair is directly dressed by two additional [Formula: see text] pairs to form a baryon pair. The experimental data indicates that there exists a vector meson with quantum numbers IG(JPC) = 0-(1--) and a mass around 2 GeV.

We review the experimental and theoretical status of weak radiative hyperon decays. Our discussion centers on a controversy over the validity of Hara’s theorem, which was originally expected to be respected by these decays. After presenting the hadron level theorem we describe experiments that have provided convincing evidence against its applicability to these decays. In the theoretical part we juxtapose the hadron level and quark level approaches and discuss the violation of Hara’s theorem in the latter. We review quark model phenomenology, which offers a promising description of experimental data. Measurements that should be made to settle the theoretical controversy are pinpointed. The importance of radiative hyperon decays in understanding the nonlocal composite nature of hadrons is stressed.

The radiative meson decays V→ Pγ and P →γγ are analysed using the quark triangle diagram. Experimental data yield well determined estimates of the universal quark–antiquark–meson couplings gvqq′ and gpqq′ for the light meson sector. Also predictions for the ratios of neutral to charged heavy meson decay coupling constants are given and await experimental confirmation.

Analysis of charged and neutral B meson decays into π+π-K, K+K-K and [Formula: see text] is performed using a unitary representation of the ππ and [Formula: see text] final state interactions. Comparison of the theoretical model with the experimental data of the Belle and BaBar Collaborations indicates that charming penguin contributions are necessary to describe the B → f0(980) K and B → ρ(770)0 K decays.
