Abstract
We investigate the decays of
and
into two photons in an effective U(3) chiral Lagrangian approach without employing large-
arguments. Tree level and one-loop contributions from the anomalous Wess-Zumino-Witten Lagrangian are calculated and the importance of
-
mixing is discussed. Unitarity corrections beyond one loop play an important role for the decays with off-shell photons and are included by employing a coupled-channel Bethe-Salpeter equation which satisfies unitarity constraints and generates vector mesons from composed states of two pseudoscalar mesons.
