Measurement of η′(958) formation in two-photon collisions at LEP1
The formation of the η′ in the reaction e+e−→e+e−η′→e+e−π+π−γ has been measured by the L3 detector at a centre-of-mass energy of 91 GeV. The radiative width of the η′ has been found to be <math><mtext>Γ</mtext><msub><mi></mi><mn>γγ</mn></msub><...

It is also consistent with recent non-perturbative QCD calculations. |
