We investigate what can be learnt about the $\eta$ -$\eta'$ mixing by means of dispersive representation of axial anomaly. We show that our method leads to the strong bounds for the $\eta-\eta'$ mixing angle: $\theta = -15.3^o \pm 1^o$.…
Using a low background data sample of $9.7\times10^{5}$ $J\psi\rightarrow\gamma\eta^\prime$, $\eta^\prime\rightarrow\gamma\pi^+\pi^-$ events, which are 2 orders of magnitude larger than those from the previous experiments, recorded with the…

The problem of $\rho$- and $\omega$- mesons contributions to the background for $\eta \to \pi^0 e^+e^-$ decay and to the asymmetries in the decays $\eta \to \pi^+\pi^-\pi^0$ and $\eta \to \pi^+\pi^-\gamma$ is considered.
We amend a recent dispersive analysis of the anomalous $\eta$ decay process $\eta\to\pi^+\pi^-\gamma$ by the effects of the $a_2$ tensor meson, the lowest-lying resonance that can contribute in the $\pi\eta$ system. While the net effects on…
