Improved Measurement of the Branching Fraction and Engery Spectrum of eta' from Upsilon(1S) Decays
Abstract
We present an improved measurement of the eta' meson energy spectrum in Upsilon(1S) decays, using 1.2 fb-1 of data taken at the Upsilon(1S) center-of-mass energy with the CLEO III detector. We compare our results with models of eta' gluonic form factor that have been suggested to explain the unexpectedly large B to eta' Xs rate. Models based on perturbative QCD fail to fit the data for large eta' energies, showing that Standard Model strong interaction dynamics is not likely to provide an explanation for the large rate of high energy eta' observed in B decays.
