Branching fraction measurements of χc0 and χc2 to π0π0 and ηη
Abstract
Using a sample of 1.06×108 ψ' decays collected by the BESIII detector, χc0 and χc2 decays into π0π0 and ηη are studied. The branching fraction results are Br(χc0→π0π0)=(3.23±0.03±0.23±0.14)×10-3, Br(χc2→π0π0)=(8.8±0.2±0.6±0.4)×10-4, Br(χc0→ηη)=(3.44±0.10±0.24±0.2)×10-3, and Br(χc2→ηη)=(6.5±0.4±0.5±0.3)×10-4, where the uncertainties are statistical, systematic due to this measurement, and systematic due to the branching fractions of ψ'→γχcJ. The results provide information on the decay mechanism of χc states into pseudoscalars.
