Abstract: (APS)
The Y(4220) production in the process of pp¯→Y(4220)π0 is studied within the effective Lagrangian approach. We first study the e+e-→Y(4220)→pp¯π0 reaction at center-of-mass energy 4.258 GeV with the assumption that the Y(4220) is a ψ(4S) state. We show that the inclusion of nucleon and nucleon resonance leads to a quite good description of the experimental data of π0p and π0p¯ invariant mass distributions. Then, the total and angular distributions of the pp¯→Y(4220)π0 reaction are investigated. It is shown that the nucleon pole is dominant but the contributions from excited nucleon resonances are non-negligible. The pp¯→Y(4220)π0 reaction is useful for studying the property of Y(4220) and our calculated results may be tested at the forthcoming P¯ANDA experiments.
