Partial wave analysis of $\psi(3686)\rightarrow K^{+}K^{-}\eta$

Abstract

Using a sample of $(448.1\pm2.9)\times10^6$ $\psi(3686)$ events collected with the BESIII detector, we perform the first partial wave analysis of $\psi(3686)\rightarrow K^+K^-\eta$. In addition to the well established states, $\phi(1020)$, $\phi(1680)$, and $K_3^*(1780)$, contributions from $X(1750)$, $\rho(2150)$, $\rho_3(2250)$, and $K^*_2(1980)$ are also observed. The $X(1750)$ state is determined to be a $1^{--}$ resonance. The simultaneous observation of the $\phi(1680)$ and $X(1750)$ indicates that the $X(1750)$, with previous observations in photoproduction, is distinct from the $\phi(1680)$. The masses, widths, branching fractions of $\psi(3686)\rightarrow K^+K^-\eta$ and the intermediate resonances are also measured.
