A study of some rare eta-meson decays

Previous calculations of the rate of the decay η → π⁰ γγ have fallen short of the experimental result, 0.84 ± 0.18 eV. One such calculation, that of vector meson dominance (VMD), is included herein (giving 0.29₋₀.₁₂⁺⁰¹⁶ eV), and moreover is modified by the inclusion of an added ingredient, the scal...
