Neutral decays of the η-meson

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik C Particles and Fields

Abstract

The partial widths of η-meson decays η→2γ, η→3π0 and η→π0γγ have been measured in a high accuracy experiment made at the IHEP accelerator with the hodoscope electromagnetic spectrometer GAMS-2000. An upper limit has been determined for the 3γ channel. The Dalitz plot of the η decay into 3π0 shows that the matrix element does not depend on the pion energy.
