Abstract
The process e+e−→ pp̄π0has been studied by analyzing data collected at (formula presented) GeV, at (formula presented) GeV, and during a ψ(3770) line shape scan with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider. The Born cross section of p̄pπ0in the vicinity of the ψ(3770) is measured, and the Born cross section of ψ(3770) → p̄pπ0is extracted considering interference between resonant and continuum production amplitudes. Two solutions with the same probability and a significance of 1.5 σ are found. The solutions for the Born cross section of ψ(3770) → p̄pπ0are 33.8 ± 1.8 ± 2.1 pb and (formula presented) pb (< 0.22 pb at a 90% confidence level). Using the estimated cross section and a constant decay amplitude approximation, the cross section σ(p̄p → ψ(3770)π0) is calculated for the kinematic situation of the planned P̄ANDA experiment. The maximum cross section corresponding to the two solutions is expected to be less than 0.79 nb at 90% confidence level and 122 ± 10 nb at a center-of-mass energy of 5.26 GeV.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
