The hadronic tau decay $tau^- to u_tau eta pi^- pi^0$ occurs through V-A weak current. In this decay mode, the vector current contribution is intrinsic parity violating and the axial current contribution is G parity violating. The latter contribution is suppressed due to tiny isospin breaking. We have computed both vector and axial vector form factors using a chiral Lagrangian with vector mesons including the effect of isospin breaking and intrinsic parity violation. A numerical result of the invariant mass distribution is shown and the structure of $rho$ resonance can be seen in the distribution with respect to $M_{pi^- pi^0}$.

An intrinsic parity violating hadronic tau lepton decay is investigated. $tau to pi pi eta u$ is the process in which the dominant contribution to the amplitude is due to the intrinsic parity violation. To predict the hadronic invariant mass spectra and to compare them with experimental data, we extend the chiral Lagrangian with vector mesons so that it incorporates the intrinsic parity violating terms and $phi$ and $eta^prime$ mesons. The coefficients of the intrinsic parity violating terms will be determined by fitting the branching fractions for $V^I rightarrow P gamma$, $V^I rightarrow 3 P$ and $P to V^I gamma $ where $V^I$ denotes vector mesons $1^-$ and $P$ denotes pseudo-scalar mesons $0^-$.
We consider the chiral Lagrangian with a nonet of Goldstone bosons and a nonet of light vector mesons. The mixing between the pseudoscalar mesons eta and eta-prime is taken into account. A novel counting scheme is suggested that is based on hadrogenesis, which conjectures a mass gap in the meson spectrum of QCD in the limit of a large number of colors. Such a mass gap would justify to consider the vector mesons and the eta-prime meson as light degrees of freedom. The complete leading order Lagrangian is constructed and discussed. As a first application it is tested against electromagnetic transitions of light vector mesons to pseudoscalar mesons. Our parameters are determined by the experimental data on photon decays of the omega, phi and eta-prime meson. In terms of such parameters we predict the corresponding decays into virtual photons with either dielectrons or dimuons in the final state.
We study the reactions $gammagammarightarrow pi^0pi^0$, $pi^+pi^-$, $K^0bar{K}^0$, $K^+K^-$, $eta eta$ and $pi^0eta$ based on a chiral Lagrangian with dynamical light vector mesons as formulated within the hadrogenesis conjecture. At present our chiral Lagrangian contains 5 unknown parameters that are relevant for the photon fusion reactions. They parameterize the strength of interaction terms involving two vector meson fields. These parameters are fitted to photon fusion data $gammagammarightarrow pi^0pi^0$, $pi^+pi^-, pi^0eta$ and to the decay $etarightarrowpi^0gammagamma$. In order to derive gauge invariant reaction amplitudes in the resonance region constraints from micro-causality and exact coupled-channel unitarity are used. Our results are in good agreement with the existing experimental data from threshold up to about 0.9 GeV for the two-pion final states. The $a_0$ meson in the $pi^0eta$ channel is dynamically generated and an accurate reproduction of the $gammagammarightarrow pi^0eta$ data is achieved up to 1.2 GeV. Based on our parameter sets we predict the $gammagammarightarrow $ $K^0bar{K}^0$, $K^+K^-$, $eta eta$ cross sections.
A previous formal derivation of the effective chiral Lagrangian for low-lying pseudoscalar mesons from first-principles QCD without approximations [Wang et al., Phys. Rev. D61, (2000) 54011] is generalized to further include scalar, vector, and axial-vector mesons. In the large Nc limit and with an Abelian approximation, we show that the properties of the newly added mesons in our formalism are determined by the corresponding underlying fundamental homogeneous Bethe--Salpeter equation in the ladder approximation, which yields the equations of motion for the scalar, vector, and axial-vector meson fields at the level of an effective chiral Lagrangian. The masses appearing in the equations of motion of the meson fields are those determined by the corresponding Bethe--Salpeter equation.
We review the Standard Model prediction of the tau lepton g-2 presenting updated QED and electroweak contributions, as well as recent determinations of the leading-order hadronic term, based on the low energy e+e- data, and of the hadronic light-by-light one.
