Study of $e^+e^- to 2(pbar{p})$ at center-of-mass energies between 4.0 and 4.6 GeV


Abstract in English

Using data taken at 23 center-of-mass energies between 4.0 and 4.6 GeV with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider and with a total integrated luminosity of approximately $15$ fb$^{-1}$, the process $e^+e^-to 2(p bar{p})$ is studied for the first time. The Born cross sections for $e^+e^-to 2(p bar{p})$ are measured, and no significant structure is observed in the lineshape. The baryon pair ($pp$ and $bar{p}bar{p}$) invariant mass spectra are consistent with phase space, therefore no hexaquark or di-baryon state is found.
