Abstract

Decays of χc0,2\ar\ww\chi_{c0,2}\ar\ww are observed for the first time using a sample of 14.0×10614.0\times 10^6 ψ(2S)\psi(2S) events collected with the BESII detector. The branching ratios are determined to be B(χc0\ar\ww)=(2.29±0.58±0.41)×103{\cal B}(\chi_{c0}\ar \ww)=(2.29\pm 0.58\pm 0.41)\times 10^{-3} and B(χc2\ar\ww)=(1.77±0.47±0.36)×103{\cal B}(\chi_{c2}\ar\ww)=(1.77\pm 0.47\pm 0.36)\times 10^{-3}, where the first errors are statistical and the second systematic. The significances of the two signals are 4.4σ4.4\sigma and 4.7σ4.7\sigma, respectively.
