Abstract
With a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 11.5 fb(-1) collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII storage ring, for the first time the light hadron decay chi(c1()3872)->pi(+)pi(-)eta is searched for. While no significant signal is observed, the upper limits at the 90% confidence level for sigma[e(+)e(-)->gamma chi(c1)(3872)]B[chi(c1)(3872)->pi(+)pi(-)eta] at center of mass energies from 4.13 GeV to 4.34 GeV are determined. By normalizing to the chi(c1)(3872)->pi(+)pi(-)J/psi decay channel, a 90% confidence level upper limit for the branching fraction ratio R=B[chi(c1)(3872)->pi(+)pi(-)eta]/B[chi(c1)(3872)->pi(+)pi(-)J/psi]<0.12 is given. These measurements provide important inputs for understanding the internal structure of the chi(c1)(3872) resonanceI documenti in SFERA sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
