The Chiral Anomaly in Non-Leptonic Weak Interactions

The interplay between the chiral anomaly and the non-leptonic weak Hamiltonian is studied. The structure of the corresponding effective Lagrangian of odd intrinsic parity is established. It is shown that the factorizable contributions (leading in $1/N_C$) to that Lagrangian can be calculated without free parameters. As a first application, the decay $K^+ \ra \pi^+ \pi^0 \gamma$ is investigated.
