We estimate the decay rates of $\eta_c\rightarrow 2\gamma$, $\eta_c'\rightarrow 2\gamma$, and $J/\psi\rightarrow e^+ e^-$, $\psi^\prime\rightarrow e^+e^-$, by taking into account both relativistic and QCD radiative corrections. The decay…

The di-electron widths of $\psi(4040)$, $\psi(4160)$, and $\psi(4415)$, and their ratios are shown to be in good agreement with experiment, if in all cases the $S-D$ mixing with a large mixing angle $\theta\approx 34^\circ$ is taken.…
The two-photon width $\Gamma_{\gamma\gamma}$ of the $\eta_c$ meson has been measured with the L3 detector at LEP. The $\eta_c$ is studied in the decay modes $\pi^+\pi^-\pi^+\pi^-$, $\pi^+\pi^-$K$^+$K$^-$, K$_s^0$K$^\pm\pi^\mp$,…
