We study the process $e^+e^-\to J/\psi\pi^{+}\pi^{-}$ with initial-state-radiation events produced at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy collider. The data were recorded with the BaBar detector at center-of-mass energies 10.58 and 10.54 GeV, and…
Fermilab experiment E835 has done an extensive set of studies on charmonium triplet P states. The most precise measurements on mass and total width come indeed from charmonium spectroscopy by direct formation of $c\bar{c}$ states in…

Production of metastable charmonium states more massive than the $\psi(3685)$ is expected in models and could be the source of up to $50\%$ of the $\psi$ observed at large $p_T$ at the Tevatron.Narrow $2^{-+},2^{--} c\bar{c}$ are predicted…
