abstract
The two-photon width of c2(P23) state of charmonium has been measured using 14.4fb-1 of e+e- data taken at s=9.46-11.30GeV with the CLEO III detector. The -fusion reaction studied is e+e-e+e-, c2J/e+e-(+-). We measure (c2)B(c2J/)B(J/ e+e-++-)=13.21.4(stat)1.1(syst)eV, and obtain (c2)=55957(stat)48(syst) 36(br)eV. This result is in excellent agreement with the result of -fusion measurement by Belle and is consistent with that of the ppc2 measurement, when they are both reevaluated using the recent CLEO result for the radiative decay c2J/. 2006 The American Physical Society.
