On the determination of quark masses from the Dalitz plot for the decay η → π+π?π0

An experimental Dalitz plot distribution for the decay η → π ⁺ π ⁻ π ⁰ is fitted by the theoretical one obtained in chiral perturbation theory with unitarity corrections taken into account. The fit shows that the difference of light-quark masses is larger than is expected from electromagnetic mass differences of neutral and charged kaons.
