摘要
We extend the simple scenario for psi' decays suggested a few years ago. The cc pair in the psi' does not annihilate directly into three gluons but rather survives before annihilating. An interesting prediction is that a large fraction of all psi' decays could originate from the psi' -> eta(c)(3 pi) channel which we urge experimentalists to identify. Our model solves the problem of the apparent hadronic excess in psi' decays as well as the rho pi puzzle since, in our view, the two-body decays of the psi' are naturally of electromagnetic origin. Further tests of this picture are proposed, e.g., J/psi -> b (c) 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
