Pole position of the a1(1260) from τ -decay

Abstract: We perform an analysis of the three-pion system with quantum numbers J P C = 1 ++ produced in the weak decay of τ leptons. The interaction is known to be dominated by the axial meson a1(1260). We build a model based on approximate three-body unitary and fix the free parameters by fitting it to the ALEPH data on τ − → π − π + π − ντ decay. We then perform the analytic continuation of the amplitude to the complex energy plane. The singularity structures related to the ππ subchannel resonances are carefully addre… Show more

“…[23] gave a somewhat lower a 1 -mass of m a 1 = 1.12 GeV. Moreover, the Joint Physics Analysis Center Collaboration [24] extracted from the ALEPH data on τ − → π − π + π − ν τ a complex a 1 -pole position of m a 1 − iΓ a 1 /2 = (1.21 − 0.29 i) GeV. The model employed in ref.…”

“…While the a 1 (1260) production provides the main contribution to the process, other mechanisms are at work when one wishes to get a very good agreement with experiment [30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40][41]. Special emphasis in the role of three body unitarity of the final three pion state is made in a recent paper [42]. The a 1 (1260) dominance is seen in the πρ decay channel with the ρ identified from the ππ mass distribution.…”
