Abstract: (APS)
The energy-dependent cross section for e+e-ηψ(2S) is measured at 18 center of mass energies from 4.288 to 4.951 GeV using the BESIII detector. Using the same data samples, we also perform the first search for the reaction e+e-ηX˜(3872), but no evidence is found for the X˜(3872) in the π+π-J/ψ mass distribution. At each of the 18 center of mass energies, upper limits at the 90% confidence level on the cross section for e+e-ηψ(2S) and on the product of the e+e-ηX˜(3872) cross section with the branching fraction of X˜(3872)π+π-J/ψ are reported.
