Abstract:
Combining the Okubo–Zweig–Iizuka rule in the decay ϕ→ρπ→π+π−π0 with the ρ→4π decay amplitudes, we calculate the ϕ→2π+2π−π0 and ϕ→π+π−3π0 ones. The partial widths of the above ϕ decays are evaluated, and the excitation curves in e+e− annihilation are obtained, assuming reasonable particular relations among the parameters characterizing the anomalous terms of the HLS Lagrangian. The evaluated branching ratios Bϕ→π+π−3π0≈2⋅10−7 and Bϕ→2π+2π−π0≈7⋅10−7 are such that with the luminosity $L=500 pb^{-1}$ attained at DAΦNE ϕ factory, one may already possess about 1685 events of the decays ϕ→5π.
