BESIII_2011_I894356

Helicity angle distributions in $\chi_{c1}\to \gamma +(\phi,\rho,\omega)$
Experiment: BESIII (BEPC)
Inspire ID: 894356
Status: VALIDATED NOHEPDATA
Authors:
  • Peter Richardson
References:
  • Phys.Rev.D 83 (2011) 112005
Beams: * *
Beam energies: ANY
Run details:
  • Any process producing chi_c1, originally e+e- -> psi(2S)

Measurement of the helicity angles in the decays $\chi_{c1}\to \gamma +(\phi,\rho,\omega)$. The data were read from the plots in the paper amnd may not be corrected for efficiency/acceptance, however the backgrounds given in the paper have been subtracted.
