We have studied the ϕ→ a0 (980) γ process with the KLOE detector at the Frascati ϕ-factory
DAΦNE by detecting the ϕ→ ηπ0γ decays in the final states with η→ γγ and η→ π+ π− π0.
We have measured the branching ratios for both final states: Br (ϕ→ ηπ0γ)=(7.01±0.10±0.20
)× 10− 5 and (7.12±0.13±0.22)× 10− 5, respectively. We have also extracted the a0 (980)
mass and its couplings to ηπ0, K+ K−, and to the ϕ meson from the fit of the ηπ0 invariant
mass distributions using different phenomenological models.
