Using X(3823)→J/ψπ⁺π⁻ to identify coupled-channel effects

Abstract

Very recently, the Belle and BESIII experiments observed a new charmonium-like state X(3823), which is a good candidate for the D-wave charmonium ψ(1³D₂). Because the X(3823) is just near the D ¯D^∗ threshold, the decay X(3823)→ J/ψπ⁺π⁻ can be a golden channel to test the significance of coupled-channel effects. In this work, this decay is considered including both the hidden-charm dipion and the usual quantum chromodynamics multipole expansion (QCDME) contributions. The partial decay width, the dipion invariant mass spectrum distribution dΓ[X(3823) → J/ψπ⁺π⁻]/dm_π⁺_π⁻, and the corresponding dΓ[X(3823) → J/ψπ⁺π⁻]/d cos θ distribution are computed. Many parameters are determined from existing experimental data, so the results depend mainly only on one unknown phase between the QCDME and hidden-charm dipion amplitudes.
