Search the Rare and Forbidden Neutral Decays of \eta-meson on GAMS-4\pi
Protvino, 2005. – p. 13, figs. 11, tables 1, refs.: 25.


A search for the rare and forbidden neutral decays of \eta-meson with GAMS-4\pi setup has been performed. The charge-exchange reaction at 32.5 GeV/c was used as a source of 3.7 \cdot 10^{6} \eta-mesons. At the 90\% confidence level the following upper limits was established:
BR(\eta --> 3\gamma) more 1.6 \cdot 10^{-4}, BR(\eta --> 4\gamma) more 2.8 \cdot 10^{-4}, BR(\eta --> \pi^{o}\pi^{o}) more 3.5 \cdot 10^{-4}, BR(\eta --> \pi^{o}\pi^{o}\gamma) more 1.7 \cdot 10^{-3}, BR(\eta --> \pi^{o}\pi^{o}\gamma\gamma) more 4.0 \cdot 10^{-3}, BR(\eta --> 3\pi^{o}\gamma) more 2.4 \cdot 10^{-4}, BR(\eta --> 4\pi^{o}) more 2.0 \cdot 10^{-5}.
