Chiral symmetry and charmonium decays to two pseudoscalars

Bijnens, Johan LU orcid and Jemos, Ilaria LU (2011) In European Physical Journal A. Hadrons and Nuclei 47(11).
Abstract
We apply hard pion Chiral Perturbation Theory to charmonium decays to pi pi, KK and eta eta. We first discuss why we expect to be able to provide results for the chiral logarithms in chi(c0) and chi(c2) decays to two pseudoscalars while for the decays from J/psi, psi(nS) and chi(c1) no simple prediction is possible. The leading chiral logarithm turns out to be absent for chi(c0), chi(c2) -> PP. This result is true for all fully chiral singlet states of spin zero and two.
