Dispersive evaluation of the second-class amplitude τ→ηπν_τ in the standard model release_bpmucpd43faj3nvbqffzrzaa2q

Abstract

We reevaluate the two form factors relevant for the ηπ second-class τ decay mode, making systematic use of analyticity, unitarity, combined with updated inputs to the NLO chiral constraints. We focus, in particular, on the shape of the ρ resonance peak which is a background-free signature of a second-class current. Its dispersive construction requires the ηπ→ππ scattering amplitude which we derive from a family of Khuri-Treiman equations solutions constrained with accurate recent results on the η→3π Dalitz plot.
