Allowed Eta Decay Modes and Chiral Symmetry

Abstract

Recently, the development of chiral perturbation theory has allowed the generation of rigorous low energy theorems for various hadronic processes based only on the chiral invariance of the underlying QCD Lagrangian. Such techniques are highly developed and well tested in the domain of pionic and kaonic reactions. In this note we point out that with the addition of a few additional and reasonable assumptions similar predictive power is available for processes involving the eta meson.
