Abstract

The η′ meson is associated with the U(1) anomaly. In this paper, a successful effective chiral theory of mesons has been applied to study the anomalous decays of η′ → π+ππ+(0)π−(0). Contribution of triangle and box diagrams is calculated, which indicates that the box anomaly has a significant contribution to the decay amplitudes.
