We determine masses and mixing parameters of the $\eta$ and $M_{\eta^\prime}$ meson in lattice QCD. The calculations are carried out on a set of 13 ETMC gauge ensembles with $N_f=2+1+1$ (maximally) twisted-mass Clover-improved quarks. These…
We extend a recent calculation of the momentum dependence of the $\rho-\omega$ mixing amplitude to the pseudoscalar sector. The $\pi\!-\!\eta$ mixing amplitude is calculated in a hadronic model where the mixing is driven by the…

We provide model-independent bounds on the rates of rare decays $\eta (\eta^\prime) \to \pi\pi$ based on experimental limits on the neutron electric dipole moment (nEDM). Starting from phenomenological $\eta(\eta^\prime) \pi\pi$ couplings,…
Using the Crystal Barrel(CB)/TAPS detector system at the ELSA accelerator facility in Bonn the \eta' photoproduction off nuclei (C, Ca, Nb and Pb) was studied via the hadronic decay channel \eta' -> \pi^0\pi^0\eta . Recent results on the…

We show that even moderate excess of neutrons over protons in nuclear matter, such as in ${}^{208} Pb$, can lead to large $\rho$-$\omega$ mixing at densities of the order of twice the nuclear saturation density and higher. The typical…
A phenomenological analysis of radiative $V\to P\gamma$ and $P\to V\gamma$ decays is performed in order to determine the gluonic content of the $\eta^\prime$ wave function. Our result shows that there is no evidence for such a gluonium…
