Abstract

We report the precise measurements of the cross section of 𝑒+β’π‘’βˆ’β†’hadrons at center-of-mass energies from 3.645 to 3.871 GeV. We thereby perform the most precise study of the cross sections and find a complex system composed of three resonances of ℛ⁑(3760), ℛ⁑(3780), and ℛ⁑(3810). For the first time, we measure the ℛ⁑(3810) electronic width to be (19.4Β±7.4Β±12.1)  eV. For the ℛ⁑(3760) resonance, we measure the mass to be (3751.9Β±3.8Β±2.8)  MeV/𝑐2, the total width to be (32.8Β±5.8Β±8.7)  MeV, and the electronic width to be (184 Β±75 Β±86)  eV. For the ℛ⁑(3780) resonance, we measure its mass to be (3778.7Β±0.5Β±0.3)  MeV/𝑐2, total width to be (20.3Β±0.8Β±1.7)  MeV, and electronic width to be (265 Β±67 Β±83)  eV. Forty-seven years ago, the πœ“β‘(3770) resonance was discovered, and was subsequently interpreted as the 1⁒3𝐷1 -wave dominant state of charmonium. However, our analysis of the total-hadron cross sections indicates that the πœ“β‘(3770) is not a single state, but a complex system composed of the ℛ⁑(3760), ℛ⁑(3780), and ℛ⁑(3810) resonances. Among these, we interpret the ℛ⁑(3780) is a resonance dominated by the 1⁒3𝐷1 charmonium state.
