Analysis of $\psi(2S)\to\gamma\chi_{c2}$ decays using $\chi_{c2}\to\gamma\gamma$

Experiment: BESIII (BEPC)

Inspire ID: 1624548

Status: VALIDATED NOHEPDATA

Authors: - Peter Richardson

References: - Phys.Rev.D 96 (2017) 9, 092007

Beams: e- e+

Beam energies: (1.8, 1.8)GeV

Run details: - e+e- > psi(2S)

Analysis of the angular distribution of the photons and leptons produced in $e^+e^-\to \psi(2S) \to \gamma\chi_{c2}$ followed by $\chi_{c2}\to\gamma \gamma$. Gives information about the decay and is useful for testing correlations in charmonium decays. N.B. the data was read from the figures in the paper and is not corrected and should only be used qualatively.
