Description

We re-evaluate the electromagnetic corrections to η→3π decays at next-to-leading order in the chiral expansion, arguing that effects of order e2(mu-md) disregarded so far are not negligible compared to other contributions of order e2 times a light quark mass. Despite the appearance of the Coulomb pole in η→π+π-π0 and cusps in η→3π0, the overall corrections remain small.
