Radiative decays with a0(980) and f0(980) from ChPT at order p4
Abstract
A consistent description of the pi0 pi0 invariant mass distribution in the phi(1020) -> f0(980) gamma -> pi0 pi0 gamma decay and the pi0 eta in phi(1020) -> a0(980) gamma -> pi0 eta gamma is suggested. A search for the consequences of the flavor SU(3) symmetry for the scalar mesons can be based on such an analysis. In order to accurately treat the pseudoscalar meson dynamics, which is very important for the scalar meson decays, we employ Resonance Chiral Theory.
