Abstract
Based on data samples collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider at 9 center-of-mass energies from 4.21 to 4.42 GeV, we search for the production of (=0, 1, 2). The process is observed for the first time, and the Born cross sections at =4.23 and 4.26 GeV are measured to be and pb, respectively, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second are systematic. The signals at the other 7 energies and and signals are not significant, and the upper limits on the cross sections are determined. By examining the cross section as a function of center-of-mass energy, we find that it is inconsistent with the line shape of the observed in . Assuming the signals come from a single resonance, we extract mass and width of the resonance to be MeV/ and MeV, respectively, and the statistical significance is more than .
