Abstract

We study the non-Breit-Wigner line-shape of the ψ(3770)\psi(3770) resonance, predominantly a 1 3D11\ ^{3}D_{1} cˉc\bar{c}c state, using an unitarized effective Lagrangian approach, including the one-loop effects of the nearby thresholds D+DD^+D^- and D0Dˉ0D^0\bar{D}^0. A fit of the theoretical result to the total cross-section e+eDDˉe^{+}e^{-}\rightarrow D\bar{D} is performed, leading to a good description of data (χ2/d.o.f.1.03\chi^{2}/d.o.f.\sim 1.03). The partial cross sections e+eD0Dˉ0e^{+}e^{-}\rightarrow D^0\bar{D}^0 and e+eD+De^{+}e^{-}\rightarrow D^+D^- turn out to be separately in good agreement with the experiment. We find a pole at 3777i123777-i12 MeV, that is within the Particle Data Group (PDG) mass and width estimation for this state. Quite remarkably, we find an additional, dynamically generated, companion pole at 3741i193741-i19 MeV, which is responsible for the deformation on the lower energy side of the line-shape. The width for the leptonic decay ψ(3770)e+e\psi(3770)\rightarrow e^{+}e^{-} is 112 eV, hence smaller than the PDG fit of 262±18262\pm 18 eV, yet in agreement with a recent experimental study.
