Analysis of $J/\psi$ decays to $p\bar{p}$ and $n\bar{n}$
Experiment: BESIII (BEPC)
Inspire ID: 1113599
Status: VALIDATED
Authors:
  • Peter Richardson
References:
  • Phys.Rev. D86 (2012) 032014
Beams: e- e+
Beam energies: (1.8, 1.8) GeV
Run details:
  • e+ e- > J/Psi

Analysis of the angular distribution of the baryons produced in $e^+e^-\to J/\psi \to p\bar{p}$ and $n\bar{n}$. Gives information about the decay and is useful for testing correlations in hadron decays.
