چکیده

The recently observed Y(4260) lies far above the decay threshold with a width less than 100 MeV. We argue that it’s very difficult to accommodate Y(4260) as a conventional cc̄ radial excitation or a D-wave state. It can’t be a hadronic molecule. Its production mechanism and special decay pattern do not favor the glueball interpretation. If Y(4260) is a scalar tetraquark, it must be produced by the I = 0 component of the virtual photon. Then the I = 1, Iz = 0 component of the virtual photon should have produced its isovector partner Y ′(4260), which may be searched for in the decay channel π+π−π0J/ψ using exactly the same database from the initial state radiation process. The observation/non-observation of Y ′(4260) can easily confirm/reject the tetraquark hypothesis. However, a tetraquark far above threshold can fall apart into DD̄,D∗D̄ very easily. Its not-so-large width and the non-observation of DD̄ mode tend to disfavor the tetraquark hypothesis. Hence the only feasible interpretation is a hybrid charmonium if Y(4260) is NOT an experimental artifact. At present, none of the experimental information from BABAR measurement is in conflict with the hybrid charmonium picture. PACS number: 12.39.-x, 13.20.Gd, 13.25.Gv, 14.40.Gx

We suggest that the newly observed resonance Y (4260) is a χ c − ρ 0 molecule. In this picture, we can easily interpret why Y (4260) → π + π − J/ψ has a larger rate than Y (4260) → D ¯ D which has not been observed, and we also predict another two possible partner states which may be observed in the future experiments. A direct consequence of this structure is that for this molecular structure ...

By fitting the R values between 3.7 and 5.0 GeV measured by the BES collaboration, the upper limit of the electron width of the newly discovered resonance Y (4260) is determined to be 580 eV/c 2 at 90% C.L. Together with the BaBar measurement on Γee·B(Y (4260) → π + π − J/ψ), this implies a large decay width of Y (4260) → π + π − J/ψ final states.
