Abstract

Using the model-independent

2 γ \to 3 π

amplitude recently given by Adler, Lee, Treiman, and Zee, we calculate the total cross section for

2 γ \to π^{+} π^{-} π^{0}

, and the total cross section for

e^{+} e^{-} \to e^{+} e^{-} π^{+} π^{-} π^{0}

in the Weizsäcker-Williams approximation. Some comments are also made on the cross section for

μ^{+} μ^{-} \to π^{+} π^{-} π^{0}

and its relevance to the decay

K_{L}^{0} \to μ^{+} μ^{-}

.
