The decays $\eta'\to3\pi^{0}$ and $\pi^{0}\pi^{+}\pi^{-}$ were consider in isobar model approach. Branching ratio and Dalitz-plot shape of the decay $\eta'\to3\pi^{0}$ can be explain by $a0$- and $\sigma$-meson contributions. The $\sigma$…

The isospin-breaking decay eta {\to} 3pi is an ideal tool to extract information on light quark mass ratios from experiment. For a precise determination, however, a detailed description of the Dalitz plot distribution is necessary. In that…

We use QCD sum-rules to study the decays $\phi \to \eta \gamma$ and $\phi \to \eta^\prime \gamma$, obtaining ${\cal B}(\phi \to \eta \gamma)=(1.15 \pm 0.2) 10^{-2}$ and ${\cal B}(\phi \to \eta^\prime \gamma)=(1.18 \pm 0.4) 10^{-4}$, in very…

We consider the semileptonic and nonleptonic $D_s$ decay modes to final states with $\eta$ and $\eta^\prime$. We use QCD sum rules to determine the $D_s \to \eta$ form factor $f_+^\eta$, and a generalized factorization ansatz to compute…
