Isospin-breaking contribution to the model-independent axion-photon-photon coupling in U(3) chiral theory by Rui Gao, Jin Hao, Chun-Gui Duan, Zhi-Hui Guo, J. A. Oller, Hai-Qing Zhou

“…Abstract We pursue the calculation of the model-independent component of the axion-photon-photon coupling in the U(3) chiral perturbation theory up to next-to-leading order, with the emphasis on the isospin breaking effect. The mixing of the $$\pi ^0$$ π 0 - $$\eta $$ η - $$\eta '$$ η ′ -axion system is revised as well by working out the complete linear isospin-breaking terms. …”
