摘要
Using 24x10(6) Sigma(')equivalent to Sigma(2S) decays in CLEO-c, we have searched for higher multipole admixtures in electric-dipole-dominated radiative transitions in charmonia. We find good agreement between our data and theoretical predictions for magnetic quadrupole (M2) amplitudes in the transitions Sigma(')->gamma chi(c1,c2) and chi(c1,c2)->gamma J/Sigma, in striking contrast to some previous measurements. Let b(2)(J) and a(2)(J) denote the normalized M2 amplitudes in the respective aforementioned decays, where the superscript J refers to the angular momentum of the chi(cJ). By performing unbinned maximum likelihood fits to full five-parameter angular distributions, we found the following values of M2 admixtures for J(chi)=1: a(2)(J=1)=(-6.26 +/- 0.63 +/- 0.24)x10(-2) and b(2)(J=1)=(2.76 +/- 0.73 +/- 0.23)x10(-2), which agree well with theoretical expectations for a vanishing anomalous magnetic moment of the charm quark. For J(chi)=2, if we fix the electric octupole (E3) amplitudes to zero as theory predicts for transitions between charmonium S states and P states, we find a(2)(J=2)=(-9.3 +/- 1.6 +/- 0.3)x10(-2) and b(2)(J=2)=(1.0 +/- 1.3 +/- 0.3)x10(-2). If we allow for E3 amplitudes we find, with a four-parameter fit, a(2)(J=2)=(-7.9 +/- 1.9 +/- 0.3)x10(-2), b(2)(J=2)=(0.2 +/- 1.4 +/- 0.4)x10(-2), a(3)(J=2)=(1.7 +/- 1.4 +/- 0.3)x10(-2), and b(3)(J=2)=(-0.8 +/- 1.2 +/- 0.2)x10(-2). We determine the ratios a(2)(J=1)/a(2)(J=2)=0.67(-0.13)(+0.19) and a(2)(J=1)/b(2)(J=1)=-2.27(-0.99)(+0.57), where the theoretical predictions are independent of the charmed quark magnetic moment and are a(2)(J=1)/a(2)(J=2)=0.676 +/- 0.071 and a(2)(J=1)/b(2)(J=1)=-2.27 +/- 0.16.
