A discussion on the anomalous threshold enhancement of – couplings and peak*

Abstract

The attractive interaction between $J/\psi$ and $\psi(3770)$ has to be strong enough if $X(6900)$ is of molecule type. We argue that since $\psi(3770)$ decays predominantly into a $D\bar D$ pair, the interactions between $J/\psi$ and $\psi(3770)$ may be significantly enhanced due to the three point $D\bar D$ loop diagram. The enhancement comes from the anomalous threshold located at $t=-1.288$GeV$^2$, which effect propagates into the $s$-channel partial wave amplitude in the vicinity of $\sqrt{s}\simeq 6.94$GeV. This effect may be helpful in forming the $X(6900)$ peak.Content from this work may be used under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 licence.
