abstract

We study initial-state radiation events, $e^+e^- \to \gamma_{ISR}\pi^+\pi^-J/\psi$, with data collected with the BaBar detector. We observe an accumulation of events near 4.26 GeV/$c^2$ in the invariant-mass spectrum of $\pi^+\pi^-J/\psi$. Fits of the mass spectrum indicate that a broad resonance with a mass of about 4.26 GeV/$c^2$ is required to describe the observed structure. The presence of additional narrow resonances cannot be excluded. The fitted width of the broad resonance is 50 to 90 MeV/$c^2$, depending on the fit hypothesis.

    Joint Dalitz decomposition of two e+e- processes with dispersive pi pi / KKbar final-state interactions shows a non-resonant production term is required and extracts Breit-Wigner parameters for Zc(3900), Y(4220), and Y(4320).
