Partial wave analysis of $psi(2S) to p bar{p}eta$


Abstract in English

Using a sample of $1.06 times 10^{8}$ $psi(2S)$ events collected with the BESIII detector at BEPCII, the decay $psi(2S) to p bar{p}eta$ is studied. A partial wave analysis determines that the intermediate state N(1535) with a mass of $1524pm5^{+10}_{-4}$ MeV/$c^2$ and a width of $130^{+27+57}_{-24-10}$ MeV/$c^2$ is dominant in the decay; the product branching fraction is determined to be $B(psi(2S) to N(1535)bar{p})times B(N(1535)to peta)+c.c. = (5.2pm0.3^{+3.2}_{-1.2})times 10^{-5}$. Furthermore, the branching fraction of $psi(2S) to eta p bar{p}$ is measured to be $(6.4pm0.2pm0.6)times 10^{-5}$.
