Abstract

We compare contributions from the triangle diagram and the DDˉD\bar D^* bubble chain to the processes of e+eJ/ψπ+πe^{+}e^{-}\rightarrow J/\psi\pi^{+}\pi^{-} and e+e(DDˉ)π±e^{+}e^{-}\rightarrow (D\bar D^*)^\mp\pi^{\pm}. By fitting the J/ψπJ/\psi\pi maximum spectrum and the DDˉD\bar D^* spectrum, we find that the triangle diagram cannot explain the new data from BESIII Collaboration at center of mass at 4.23GeV and 4.26GeV, simultaneously. On the contrary, the molecular assignment of Zc(3900)Z_c(3900) gives a much better description.
