dc.descriptionWe discuss the processes $γγ\toπ^0π^0$ and $η\toπ^0 γγ$ at $O(p^6)$ in the momentum expansion. The calculation involves tree--level, one--loop and two--loop diagrams of a chiral effective lagrangian which is obtained by a bosonization of the NJL model. The importance of integrating out meson resonances (reduction) is pointed out. Our final results for the total cross section of $γγ\toπ^0π^0$ are in good agreement with the experimental data of the Crystal Ball Collaboration. For the width of the $η\toπ^0γγ$ decay we obtain the value $0.11$ eV which has to be compared with the experimental value of $(0.84 \pm 0.18)$ eV. Alternatively, taking empirical parameters from a vector--meson--dominance model the prediction for the decay width is $0.35$ eV. We present a prediction for the differential decay probability as a function of $m_{γγ}^2/m_η^2$.
