Two Photon Decays of Charmonia from Lattice QCD

Description

We make the first calculation in lattice QCD of two-photon decays of mesons. Working in the charmonium sector, using the LSZ reduction to relate a photon to a sum of hadronic vector eigenstates, we compute form-factors in both the space-like and time-like domains for the transitions ηc → γ*γ* and χc0 → γ*γ*. At the on-shell point we find approximate agreement with experimental world-average values
