Radiative Meson Decays in Broken SU(3)

Abstract
We consider vector and pseudoscalar meson decays using vector gauge fields with current mixing. The processes ω3π, ωπγ, and π2γ are fitted with one value of the gauge field's coupling g, which also determines leptonic decay rates of vector mesons. Octet breaking of the underlying VVP strong interaction introduces four parameters. The available experimental information on π, η, ω, and ϕ decays gives relations among these parameters which predict rates for decays such as K*Kγ.
