DECAYS OF φ-MESON SUPPRESSED BY OZI AND G-PARITY ROLE OF MIXING AND OF DIRECT TRANSITIONS

Abstract

It is shown that the study of rare decays of φ-meson suppressed by both the OZI rule and G parity, on π + π − , ωπ 0 , ηπ + π − provide the possibility to elucidate the situation with the φ−ω and φ−ρ mixing. The role of mixing and the direct transitions is discussed in detail. The perspectives of studying the above decays on e + e − colliders with high luminosity in the vicinity of the φ-resonance (φ-factories) are considered.
