Abstract

We present measurements of the two-body decays of the J/ into a vector and a pseudoscalar meson. The data, taken with the Mark III detector at the SLAC e+e- storage ring SPEAR, consist of 5.8×106 produced J/s. The branching ratios for the J/ decays into , , , 0, , , , , and K*K are measured; an upper limit on J/0 is obtained. Using the measured branching ratios we obtain parameters of a phenomenological model of J/ decays, indicating that the and are consistent with being composed only of light and strange quarks. The model is used to obtain the mixing angle in the pseudoscalar nonet. The 0 electromagnetic form factor is determined. The upper limit on J/0 is used to study the contributions from electromagnetic doublyOkubo-Zweig-Iizukasuppressed decays of the J/. AE
