Rivet analyses

Dalitz plot analysis of ηc → K+Kη, π+πη and π+πη

Experiment: BABAR (PEP-II)

Inspire ID: 1867843

Status: VALIDATED NOHEPDATA

Authors: - Peter Richardson

References: - Phys.Rev.D 104 (2021) 7, 072002

Beams: * *

Beam energies: ANY

Run details: - Any process producing eta_c (originally gamma gamma -> chi_c)

Measurement of the mass distributions in the decays ηc → K+Kη, π+πη and π+πη by BaBar. The data were read from the plots in the paper and therefore for some points the error bars are the size of the point. Also the sideband background from the plots has been subtracted. It is also not clear that any resolution effects have been unfolded.
