Detailed Description

Class for the simulation of the eta -> 3pi0 and eta'->3pi0 decays.

The chosen pametrization is based on a power expansion of the decay amplitude squared with real cefficients (see PDG 2015):

|M|^2 = 1 + 2*alpha*Z,

where the kinematic variable Z is funciton of the kinetic energies of the 3 pi0s in the mother reference frame.

The model takes 1 parameter corresponding to the slope coeafficient alpha. alpha should be greater than -0.5, however the class is able to handle non physical values by shrinking the dalitz phase space. This feature is required since the PDG quotes alpha = -0.61 +- 0.07 for the eta' -> 3pi0 decay.

An implementation of the model with the parameters report in the PDG 2015 for the eta -> 3pi0 decay is :

ETA_PI0DALITZ -0.0135;

The class could be used also to model eta' -> 3pi0
