Hadronic production of charmonium in 225-GeV/cπ−Be interactions

Abstract
Events in which the charmonium states Jψ and ψ are produced in 225-GeV/c π Be collisions have been selected with a dimuon trigger. Coincidences with detected photons have identified radiative decays from the charmonium P states (χ) to the Jψ. The fraction of Jψ's resulting from such decays is determined to be 0.37±0.09.
