Abstract

Using the Crystal Ball detector at the DORIS II e⁺e^- storage ring, we measure the ηπ⁰π⁰ mass spectrum in the reaction e⁺e^-→e⁺e^-ηπ⁰π⁰→e⁺e^-6γ from the ηπ⁰π⁰ threshold to about 2500 MeV/c². The spectrum is dominated by the η′, for which we determine Γ_γγ(η′)BR(η'→6γ)=0 .36±0.02±0.03 keV. In addition, we observe an enhancement in the cross section near 1900 MeV/c² which we attribute to the two-photon production of a new resonance X(1900). The angular distributions and the invariant mass distribution of the ηπ⁰ subsystem are consistent with those expected for the hypothetical η₂ meson with J^PC=2^-+. For this J^P assignment the resonance parameters are M(X) = 1876 ±35±50 MeV/c², Γ_tot(X)=228±90±34 MeV/c² and Γ_γγ(X)BR(X→ηππ) = 0.9±0.2±0.3 keV.
