Abstract
We perform simultaneous calculations of
the radiative decays of scalar mesons
,
,
vector meson
,
,
,
,
and tensor mesons
,
,
, assuming all these states
to be dominantly the
ones. A good description of the
considered radiative decays is reached by using
almost the same radial wave
functions for scalar and tensor mesons that supports the idea
for the f0(980), a0(980) and
a2(1320), f2(1270), f2(1525) to belong
to the same P-wave
multiplet.
