Abstract
By analyzing (448.1±2.9)×106 ψ(3686) events collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII collider, the decays of χcJ→ΛΛ¯η (J=0, 1, and 2) are observed for the first time with statistical significances of 13.9σ, 6.7σ, and 8.2σ, respectively. The product branching fractions of ψ(3686)→γχcJ and χcJ→ΛΛ¯η are measured. Dividing by the world averages of the branching fractions of ψ(3686)→γχcJ, the branching fractions of χcJ→ΛΛ¯η decays are determined to be (2.31±0.30±0.21)×10-4, (5.86±1.38±0.68)×10-5, and (1.05±0.21±0.15)×10-4 for J=0, 1 and 2, respectively, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic.
