Evidence for X(3872) → Ψ (2S)y in B^± → X(3872)K^± Decays and a Study of B → ccyK

Abstract

In a search for B → ccyK decays with the BABAR detector, where cc includes J/Ψ and Ψ (2S), and K includes K^±, K^0_S , and K^*(892), we find evidence for X(3872) → J/Ψy and X(3872) → Ψ (2S) with 3:6σ and 3:5σ significance, respectively. We measure the product of branching fractions B(B^± → X(3872)K^±)B(X(3872) → J/Ψy)= [2:8 ± 0:8(stat) ± 0:1(syst)]X 10^(-6) and B(B^± → X(3872)K^±) X B(X(3872) → Ψ (2S)y) = [9:5 ± 2:7(stat) ± 0:6(syst)] X 10^(-6)
