Search for $e^{+}{e}^{-}\to {\hat{I}}^3\ddot{I}{‡}_{bJ}$ ($J$ = 0, 1, 2) near $\sqrt{s}=10.746$ GeV at Belle II

Abstract

We search for the $e^{+}{e}^{-}\to {\hat{I}}^3\ddot{I}{‡}_{bJ}$ ($J$ = 0, 1, 2) processes at center-of-mass energies $\sqrt{s}$ = 10.653, 10.701, 10.746, and 10.804 GeV. These data were collected with the Belle II detector at the SuperKEKB collider and correspond to 3.5, 1.6, 9.8, and 4.7 fb${}^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity, respectively. We set upper limits at the 90\% confidence level on the Born cross sections for $e^{+}{e}^{-}\to {\hat{I}}^3\ddot{I}{‡}_{bJ}$ at each center-of-mass energy $\sqrt{s}$ near 10.746 GeV. The upper limits at 90\% confidence level on the Born cross sections for $e^{+}{e}^{-}\to {\hat{I}}^3\ddot{I}{‡}_{b1}$ are significantly smaller than the corresponding measured values for $e^{+}{e}^{-}\to \ddot{I}‰\ddot{I}{‡}_{b1}$ and $e^{+}{e}^{-}\to \ddot{I}{€}^{+}\ddot{I}{€}^{-}\hat{I}\yen (2S)$ at $\sqrt{s}$ = 10.746 GeV.
