Abstract

We study the effect of isospin-symmetry breaking in the framework of the extended linear σ model in vacuum. In this model, several particles mix with each other at tree level, due to the three nonzero scalar condensates (nonstrange, strange, isospin). We resolve these mixings with the help of various field transformations. We compute all possible meson mixings and decay widths at tree level and perform a χ2 fit to PDG data. A very good fit is found if we exclude the (very small ∼130 keV) ω→ππ decay. We also investigate the violation of Dashen’s theorem. Published by the American Physical Society 2024
