Observation of a pp mass threshold enhancement in ψ′→π+πJ/ψ(J/ψ→γpp) decay

  • The decay channel ψ′→π+πJ/ψ(J/ψ→γpp) is studied using a sample of 1.06×108 ψ′ events collected by the BESIII experiment at BEPCII. A strong enhancement at threshold is observed in the pp invariant mass spectrum. The enhancement can be fitted with an S-wave Breit-Wigner resonance function with a resulting peak mass of M=1861+6-13 (stat)+7-26 (syst) MeV/c2 and a narrow width that is Γ<38 MeV/c2 at the 90% confidence level. These results are consistent with published BESII results. These mass and width values do not match with well established mesons.

Observation of a pp mass threshold enhancement in ψ′→π+πJ/ψ(J/ψ→γpp) decay

  • Institute of High Energy Physics, CAS, Beijing 100049, China

Abstract: 

The decay channel ψ′→π+πJ/ψ(J/ψ→γpp) is studied using a sample of 1.06×108 ψ′ events collected by the BESIII experiment at BEPCII. A strong enhancement at threshold is observed in the pp invariant mass spectrum. The enhancement can be fitted with an S-wave Breit-Wigner resonance function with a resulting peak mass of M=1861+6-13 (stat)+7-26 (syst) MeV/c2 and a narrow width that is Γ<38 MeV/c2 at the 90% confidence level. These results are consistent with published BESII results. These mass and width values do not match with well established mesons.
