Model-independent approach to η→π+π−γ and η′→π+π−γ

• We present a new, model-independent method to analyze radiative decays of mesons to a vector, isovector pair of pions of invariant mass square below the first significant pi pi threshold in the vector channel. It is based on a combination of chiral perturbation theory and dispersion theory. This allows for a controlled inclusion of resonance physics without the necessity to involve vector meson dominance explicitly. As an example, the method is applied to an analysis of the reactions eta -> pi(+)pi(-)gamma and eta' -> pi(+)pi(-)gamma.
