@misc{10481/78563, year = {2022}, month = {12}, url = {https://hdl.handle.net/10481/78563}, abstract = {It has been pointed out recently that a certain set of dimension-6 scalar P- and CP-violating light-quark-muon operators may be tested in η and η′ decays to various final states involving μ+μ− pairs, at a level not yet excluded by constraints from electric dipole moments. We here work out the hadronic matrix elements required for the predictions for the decays η, η′ → π+π−μ+μ−. We relate a new asymmetry in the angular distribution between the dipion and dimuon decay planes to the corresponding Wilson coefficients. Despite the advantage of not requiring the measurement of muon polarization, the projected sensitivities are shown to be moderate due to a combination of small phase space and chiral suppression. Such sensitivity studies are most timely in view of upcoming or planned high-statistics η(′) experiments such as the JLab eta factory or REDTOP.}, organization = {Swiss National Science Foundation under Project No. PCEFP2_181117, by the DFG (CRC 110, “Symmetries and the Emergence of Structure in QCD”)}, organization = {European Union’s Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation Programme (grants no. 754510 [EU, H2020-MSCA-COFUND2016] and no. 824093 [H2020-INFRAIA-2018-1])}, organization = {Spanish MINECO, MCIN/AEI/10.13039/501100011033 (grants PID2020-112965GB-I00 and PID2020-114767GB-I00)}, organization = {Junta de Andalucía (grants POSTDOC_21_00136 and FQM-225)}, publisher = {Springer Nature}, keywords = {Chiral Lagrangian}, keywords = {CP violation}, keywords = {Effective Field Theories of QCD}, keywords = {SMEFT}, title = {CP violation in η(′) → π+π−μ+μ− decays}, doi = {10.1007/JHEP12(2022)001}, author = {Zillinger, Maximilian and Kubis, Bastian and Sanchez-Puertas, Pablo}, }
