abstract

We discuss the construction of the two-flavour axion-pion effective Lagrangian at the next-to-leading order (NLO) in chiral perturbation theory and present, as a phenomenological application, the calculation of the decay rate of a GeV-scale axion-like particle via the channel $a \to \pi\pi\pi$. Through the NLO calculation, we assess the range of validity of the effective field theory and show that the chiral expansion breaks down just above the kinematic threshold. Alternative non-perturbative approaches are called for in order to extend the chiral description of axion-pion interactions.

  1. Unified study of two-meson and axion-meson production from semileptonic tau decays within resonance chiral framework

    hep-ph 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Within a resonance chiral model, hadron resonances boost predicted tau decays into pion/K plus axion by factors of 7.5 and 19.2, with branching ratios and forward-backward asymmetries also predicted.

  2. New axion contribution to the two-photon decays of neutral pions

    hep-ph 2025-02 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Axion-pion mixing adds a new next-to-leading-order term to the pi0 to gamma gamma decay width that is negligible for standard light axions but may matter for MeV-scale heavy axions.
