DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/808673· OSTI ID:808673
Cross sections for e{sup +}e{sup -} {yields} hadrons, {pi}{sup +} {pi}{sup -} J/{psi}, and {mu}{sup +}{mu}{sup -} have been measured in the vicinity of the {psi}(2S) resonance using the BESII detector operated at the BEPC. The {psi}(2S) total width; partial widths to hadrons, {pi}{sup +} {pi}{sup -} J/{psi}, muons; and corresponding branching fractions have been determined to be {Lambda}{sub t} = 264 {+-} 27 keV; {Lambda}{sub h} = 258 {+-} 26 keV, {Lambda}{sub {mu}} = 2.44 {+-} 0.21 keV, and {Lambda}{sub {pi}+{pi} = J/{psi}} = 85.4 {+-} 8.7 keV; and B{sub h} = (97.79 {+-} 0.15)%, B{sub {pi}{sup +}{pi}{sup -}} = (32.3 {+-} 1.4)%, B{sub {mu}} = (0.93 {+-} 0.08)%, respectively.
