Observation of $χ_{c0}\toΣ^{+}\barΣ^{-}η$ and evidence for $χ_{c1,2}\toΣ^{+}\barΣ^{-}η$
Abstract: Using $(27.12\pm 0.14)\times10{8}$ $\psi(3686)$ events collected with the BESIII detector, the decay $\chi_{c0}\to\Sigma{+}\bar{\Sigma}{-}\eta$ is observed for the first time with a statistical significance of $7.0\sigma$, and evidence for $\chi_{c1}\to\Sigma{+}\bar{\Sigma}{-}\eta$ and $\chi_{c2}\to\Sigma{+}\bar{\Sigma}{-}\eta$ is found with statistical significances of $4.3\sigma$ and $4.6\sigma$, respectively. The branching fractions are determined to be $\mathcal{B}(\chi_{c0}\to\Sigma{+}\bar{\Sigma}{-}\eta)=({1.26 \pm 0.20 \pm 0.13}) \times 10{-4}, ~\mathcal{B}(\chi_{c1}\to\Sigma{+}\bar{\Sigma}{-}\eta)=({5.10 \pm 1.21 \pm 0.67}) \times 10{-5}$, and $\mathcal{B}(\chi_{c2}\to\Sigma{+}\bar{\Sigma}{-}\eta)=({5.46 \pm 1.18 \pm 0.50}) \times 10{-5}$, where the first uncertainties are statistical, and the second ones are systematic.
