b
The pseudoscalar vertex replaces −iλ by gγ5, so
Sfi(5)​=(2π)4δ(4)(k−p−q)guˉs(p)γ5vs′(q).
(1)
Using γ5qγ5=−q with the conjugation sign gives
P5​=2g2​M2.
(2)
The interactions are experimentally distinguishable through the decay rate and its threshold behavior: scalar decay is proportional to (1−4m2/M2)3/2, whereas pseudoscalar decay is proportional to (1−4m2/M2)1/2. Spin and parity correlations provide further discrimination.
