A new mechanism for suppression of the instanton density in the infrared is considered. This mechanism is based on the phenomenon of topological charge screening, which leads to an effective cutoff in the contribution of large instantons.

The selection of $\eta$ mesons with a high efficiency and a high purity can be important in the formation of statistically significant invariant mass spectra in the reconstruction of short-lived particles such as $\eta' \rightarrow \pi^{+}…
