A peculiar feature of these cross sections is their non-vanishing values at threshold. In the case of charged baryons, this phenomenon is expected according to the Coulomb interaction between the outgoing baryon and antibaryon. Once this Coulomb enhancement factor is taken into account, the striking result is achieved that the proton form factor at threshold is |GP(4Mp^2)| = 1, that is what is expected for pointlike fermion pairs, in spite of the proton structure. However a Coulomb enhancement factor is not expected for neutral fermions, likely in contradiction with the BABAR data. Qualitatively this behaviour is consistent with Coulomb interactions at the valence quark level.展开更多
The cross sections for e^+e^- →π^+ π^-J/ψ, π^+π^-ψ(2S), K^+K^-J/ψ, DD1D^0D1-π^+ +c.c., D^*D+c.c., and D^*D^* are measured using data sample collected on or near the T(4S) resonance with the Bell...The cross sections for e^+e^- →π^+ π^-J/ψ, π^+π^-ψ(2S), K^+K^-J/ψ, DD1D^0D1-π^+ +c.c., D^*D+c.c., and D^*D^* are measured using data sample collected on or near the T(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at KEKB. A peak near 4.25 GeV/c^2, corresponding to the so called Y(4260), is observed in π^+π^-J/ψ final state. In addition, there is another cluster of events at around 4.05 GeV/c^2. Two resonant structures are observed in the π^+π^-ψ(2S) invariant mass distribution, one at 4361±9±9 MeV/c^2 with a width of 74±15±10 MeV/c2, and another at 4664 ±11±5 MeV/c2 with a width of 48±15±3 MeV/c^2. The rich structures observed in all these final states indicate that our understanding of the vector charmonium states above the open charm threshold is still poor, let alone the other possible dynamics such as charmonium hybrids or final state re-scattering and so on.展开更多
