Rivet analyses

Analysis of ψ(2S) decays to p and n

Experiment: BESIII (BEPC)

Inspire ID: 1658762

Status: VALIDATED

Authors: - Peter Richardson

References: - Phys.Rev. D98 (2018) no.3, 032006

Beams: e- e+

Beam energies: (1.8, 1.8)GeV

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

Analysis of the angular distribution of the baryons produced in e+e → ψ(2S) → p and n. Gives information about the decay and is useful for testing correlations in hadron decays.
