A Study of Exclusive Final States in Radiative ψ Decays

<p>Using the Crystal Ball Detector at the SPEAR e<sup>+</sup>e<sup>-</sup> storage ring of the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center, several exclusive final states in radiative ψ decays are studied. Signals are observed for the processes ψ→γπ<sup>0</sup>, γγρ&...
