Abstract

A simultaneous fit is performed to the e+eΛc+Λce^+e^-\to \Lambda_c^+\Lambda_c^- cross section data measured by Belle and BESIII from threshold up to 5.4 GeV. In order to accommodate both the BESIII measurement near threshold and the Belle observation of a resonance Y(4630)Y(4630), we build a composite PDF with a Breit-Wigner resonance and a continuum contribution to model the full cross section line shape of e+eΛc+Λce^+e^-\to \Lambda_c^+\Lambda_c^-. The fit gives a mass of M=[4636.17.2+9.8(M=[4636.1_{-7.2}^{+9.8} (stat)±8.0()\pm 8.0(syst)])]~MeV/c2c^2, a width of Γtot=[34.516.2+21.0(\Gamma_{\rm tot}=[34.5_{-16.2}^{+21.0} (stat)±5.6()\pm 5.6(syst)])]~MeV, and Γe+eB[Y(4630)Λc+Λc]=[18.36.1+8.8(\Gamma_{e^+ e^-}\mathcal{B}[Y(4630)\to\Lambda_c^+\Lambda_c^-]=[18.3_{-6.1}^{+8.8} (stat)±1.1()\pm 1.1(syst)])]~eV/c2c^2 for the resonance. The width of Y(4630)Y(4630) from our study is narrower than the previous Belle fit. The mass and width of Y(4630)Y(4630) also show good agreement with a vector resonance Y(4626)Y(4626) recently observed in Ds+Ds1(2536)D_s^+D_{s1}(2536)^- by Belle.
