Partial Wave Analysis of $\ddot{I}{‡}_{c0}\to \ddot{I}{€}^{+}\ddot{I}{€}^{-}{K}^{+}{K}^{-}$

Abstract

A partial wave analysis of $\ddot{I}{‡}_{c0}\to \ddot{I}{€}^{+}\ddot{I}{€}^{-}{K}^{+}{K}^{-}$ in $\ddot{I}ˆ(2S)\to {\hat{I}}^3\ddot{I}{‡}_{c0}$ decay is presented using a sample of 14 million $\ddot{I}ˆ(2S)$ events accumulated by the BES II detector. The data are fitted to the sum of relativistic covariant tensor amplitudes for intermediate resonant decay modes. From the fit, significant contributions to $\ddot{I}{‡}_{c0}$ decays from the channels $f_0(980)f_0(980)$, $f_0(980)f_0(2200)$, $f_0(1370)f_0(1710)$, $K^{\ast }(892{)}^0{\bar{K}}^{\ast }(892{)}^0$, $K_0^{\ast }(1430){\bar{K}}_0^{\ast }(1430)$, $K_0^{\ast }(1430){\bar{K}}_2^{\ast }(1430)+c.c.$, and $K_1(1270)K$ are found. Flavor-SU(3)-violating $K_1(1270)-K_1(1400)$ asymmetry is observed. Values obtained for the masses and widths of the resonances $f_0(1710)$, $f_0(2200)$, $f_0(1370)$, and $K_0^{\ast }(1430)$ are presented.
