'Anomalous' eta production in tau decay
Description
The decay modes of the τ lepton involving η particles in the final state are analyzed. Some of these channels are related to the non-abelian chiral anomaly of QCD. It is found that the τ- → ντπ-ηπ0 mode dominates the inclusive production of η mesons in τ decay. (orig.)
