Measurements of $\psi(2S)$ decays into Vector- Tensor final states

Abstract

Decays of the $\psi(2S)$ into vector plus tensor meson final states have been studied with 14 million $\psi(2S)$ events collected with the BESII detector. Branching fractions of $\psi(2S) \rt \omega f_{2}(1270)$, $\rho a_2(1320)$, $K^*(892)^0\bar{K}^*_2(1430)^0+c.c.$ and $\phi f_2^{\prime}(1525)$ are determined. They improve upon previous BESI results and confirm the violation of the "12%" rule for $\psi(2S)$ decays to VT channels with higher precision.
