Survival before annihilation in Psi-prime decays

P. Artoisenet, J. -M. Gerard, J. Weyers

We extend the simple scenario for ${\Psi }^{\prime }$ decays suggested a few years ago. The $c\bar{c}$ pair in the ${\Psi }^{\prime }$ does not annihilate directly into three gluons but rather survives before an…
