Abstract

Here, the largest, at the moment, statistics of 7 × 10 ⁶ η → 3π ⁰ decays, based on 6.2 × 10 ⁷ η mesons produced in the γp → ηp reaction, has been accumulated by the A2 Collaboration at the Mainz Microtron, MAMI. It allowed a detailed study of the η → 3π ⁰ dynamics beyond its conventional parametrization with just the quadratic slope parameter α and enabled, for the first time, a mea- surement of the second-order term and a better understanding of the cusp structure in the neutral decay. The present data are also compared to recent theoretical calculations that predict a nonlinear dependence along the quadratic distance from the Dalitz-plot center.

Here, we study the processes e ⁺e ^– → π ⁺π ^–π ⁰π ⁰π ⁰γ and π ⁺π ^–π ⁰π ⁰ηγ in which an energetic photon is radiated from the initial state. The data are collected with the BABAR detector at SLAC. About 14 000 and 4700 events, respectively, are selected from a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 469 fb–1. The invariant mass of the hadronic final state defines the effective e+e– center-of-mass energy. From the mass spectra, the first precise measurement of the e ⁺e ^– → π ⁺π ^–π ⁰π ⁰π ⁰ cross section andmore »« less
