Relating CP-violating decays to the neutron EDM


Abstract in English

We use the present upper bound on the neutron electric dipole moment to give an estimate for the upper limit of the CP-violating couplings of the $eta(eta)$ meson to the neutron. Using this result, we derive constraints on the CP-violating two-pion decays of the $eta(eta)$. Our results are relevant for the running and planned GlueX and LHCb measurements of rare meson decays.
