Observation of X(3872)→J/ψγ and Search for X(3872)→ψ'γ in B Decays
Abstract
We report a study of B→(J/ψγ)K and B→(ψ'γ)K decay modes using 772×10⁶ BB¯¯ events collected at the Υ(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB energy-asymmetric e⁺e⁻ collider. We observe X(3872)→J/ψγ and report the first evidence for χc2→J/ψγ in B→(Xcc-γ)K decays, while in a search for X(3872)→ψ'γ no significant signal is found. We measure the branching fractions, B(B±→X(3872)K±)B(X(3872)→J/ψγ)=(1.78+0.48-0.44±0.12)×10⁻⁶, B(B±→χc2K±)=(1.11+0.36-0.34±0.09)×10⁻⁵, B(B±→X(3872)K±)B(X(3872)→ψ'γ)<3.45×10⁻⁶ (upper limit at 90% C.L.), and also provide upper limits for other searches.
