The rare decay $eta to pi^+ pi^- e^+ e^-$ is studied using a sample of $1.3 times 10^9$ $J/psi$ events collected with the BESIII detector at BEPCII in 2009 and 2012. The branching fraction is measured with improved precision to be $left( 2.42pm0.05_{stat.}pm0.08_{syst.} right) times 10^{-3}$. Due to the inclusion of new data, this result supersedes the last BESIII result on this branching fraction. In addition, the CP-violating asymmetry in the angle between the decay planes of the $pi^+pi^-$-pair and the $e^+e^-$-pair is investigated. A measurable value would indicate physics beyond the standard model; the result is $mathcal{A}_{CP} = left(2.9pm3.7_{stat.}pm1.1_{syst.} right)%$, which is consistent with the standard model expectation of no CP-violation. The precision is comparable to the asymmetry measurement in the $K^0_Ltopi^+pi^-e^+e^-$ decay where the observed $(14pm2)%$ effect is driven by a standard model mechanism.

We have studied the eta->pi+pi-e+e-(gamma) decay using about 1.7 fb^-1 collected by the KLOE experiment at the DAFNE phi-factory. This corresponds to about 72 millions eta mesons produced in phi radiative decays. We have measured the branching ratio, inclusive of radiative effects, with 4% accuracy: BR(eta->pi+pi-e+e-(gamma)) = (26.8 +/- 0.9_Stat. +/- 0.7_Syst.) x 10^-5. We have obtained the first measurement of the CP-odd pipi-ee decay planes angular asymmetry, A_phi = (-0.6 +/- 2.5_Stat. +/- 1.8_Syst.) x 10^-2.
The reaction pd->3He eta at threshold was used to provide a clean source of eta mesons for decay studies with the WASA detector at CELSIUS. The branching ratio of the decay eta->pi+pi-e+e- is measured to be (4.3+/-1.3+/-0.4)x10^-4.
Based on a sample of 225.3 million J/psi events accumulated with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII, the decays of eta to pi+pi-l+l- are studied via J/psi to gammaeta. A clear eta signal is observed in the pi+pi-e+e- mass spectrum, and the branching f raction is measured to be BR(eta to pi+pi-e+e-) = (2.11pm0.12 (stat.)pm0.15 (syst.))times10^{-3}, which is in good agreement with theoretical predictions and the previous measurement, but is determined with much higher precision. No eta signal is found in the pi+ pi- mu+ mu- mass spectrum, and the upper limit is determined to be BR(eta to pi+ pi- mu+ mu-)<2.9times10^{-5} at the 90% confidence level.

Using a data set with an integrated luminosity of 2.93 fb$^{-1}$ taken at a center-of-mass energy of 3.773 GeV with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, we extract the $e^+e^-rightarrow pi^+pi^-$ cross section and the pion form factor $|F_pi|^ 2$ in the energy range between 600 and 900 MeV. We exploit the method of initial state radiation for this measurement, yielding a systematic uncertainty of 0.9%. We calculate the contribution of the measured cross section to the leading-order hadronic vacuum polarization contribution to $(g-2)_mu$.
A new measurement of $B_{pi e2}$, the $pi^+ to e^+ u(gamma)$ decay branching ratio, is currently under way at the Paul Scherrer Institute. The present experimental result on $B_{pi e2}$ constitutes the most accurate test of lepton universality availa ble. The accuracy, however, still lags behind the theoretical precision by over an order of magnitude. Because of the large helicity suppression of the $pi_{e2}$ decay, its branching ratio is susceptible to significant contributions from new physics, making this decay a particularly suitable subject of study.
