Abstract

As members of the J^PC=3⁺⁺ light meson family, the assignments of the a₃(1875), a₃(2030), a₃(2275), f₃(2050), and f₃(2300) states remain unclear. In this work, we investigate the mass spectra and the Okubo-Zweig-Iizuka-allowed two-body strong decays of the 3⁺⁺ light meson family using the modified Godfrey-Isgur quark model and the quark-pair creation model. We explore the identification of the a₃(1875), a₃(2030), a₃(2275), f₃(2050), and f₃(2300) states. Additionally, we predict the masses and widths of the higher excitations in the 3⁺⁺ light meson family.
