    Properties of 2−+2^{-+} charmonium ηc2\eta_{c2} are investigated in quenched lattice QCD. The mass of ηc2\eta_{c2} is determined to be 3.80(3) GeV, which is close to the mass of DD-wave charmonium ψ(3770)\psi(3770) and in agreement with quark model predictions. The transition width of ηc2→γJ/ψ\eta_{c2}\to \gamma J/\psi is also obtained with a value Γ=3.8(9)\Gamma=3.8(9) keV. Since the possible 2−+2^{-+} assignment to X(3872) has not been ruled out by experiments, our results help to clarify the nature of X(3872).Comment: 15 pages, 8 figures. typos, grammatical errors and some references corrected, redundant discussions deleted, conclusion does not change. published versio
