Rare CP-violated η and η′ meson decays and neutron EDM.
2018
The data for the upper limit on the electric dipole moment of the neutron (nEDM) can be explained by using different mechanisms beyond the Standard Model (SM). The nEDM can be generated by a CP-violating transition of η and η′ mesons into pion pairs. We derive the upper limits for the rates of the CP-violating decays η(η′) → 2π are by orders of magnitude more stringent than those from existing experiments so far.
Bounds on rare decays of η and η′ mesons from the neutron EDM
2019
We provide model-independent bounds on the rates of rare decays $\ensuremath{\eta}({\ensuremath{\eta}}^{\ensuremath{'}})\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\ensuremath{\pi}\ensuremath{\pi}$ based on experimental limits on the neutron electric dipole moment (nEDM). Starting from phenomenological $\ensuremath{\eta}({\ensuremath{\eta}}^{\ensuremath{'}})\ensuremath{\pi}\ensuremath{\pi}$ couplings, the nEDM arises at the two-loop level. The leading-order relativistic chiral perturbation theory calculation with the minimal photon coupling to charged pions and a proton inside the loops leads to a finite, counterterm-free result. This is an improvement upon previous estimates which used approximations in evalu…
