Abstract:

The huge peak around the proton-antiproton (ppbar) mass threshold was observed in the J/psi radiative decay from BESII, and confirmed by BESIII. The nature about that is still challenging and various interpretations have been proposed. We have seriously and quantitatively considered the final state interaction (FSI) between ppbar in several decay modes observed in BES collaboration.It turns out that the FSI must not be a neglectable ingredient, and the prominent peak mentioned in J/psi radiative decay would be interpreted as a bound state.

In this talk, we will introduce how we construct the chiral potential to treat nucleon-antinucleon scattering, and the resulting FSI. We have also applied our such method to the process of e+e- -> multipions, where the observed clear dip structure in experiment is also described.
