Bremsstrahlung in Leptonic Onia Decays: Effects on Mass Spectra
arXiv:hep-ex/0510076
Abstract
In this note we present a study of the radiative tails in the invariant mass spectra of muon or electron pairs from J/psi, psi(2S) and Upsilon(1S) decays which is due to an additional emission of a photon. An analytic formula for dilepton mass spectra in radiative decays is derived and a Monte Carlo simulation for realistic detector conditions is used to study effects on the spectra. A rather simple parameterisation is given, suitable for the treatment of real data.
