Özet

We search for the M1 radiative transition psi(3686) -> gamma eta(c)(2S) by reconstructing the exclusive eta(c)(2S) -> (KSK +/-)-K-0 pi(-/+)pi(+)pi(-) decay using 1.06 X 10(8) psi(3686) events collected with the BESIII detector. The signal is observed with a statistical significance of greater than 4 standard deviations. The measured mass of the eta(c)(2S) is 3646.9 +/- 1.6(stat) +/- 3.6(syst) MeV/c(2), and the width is 9.9 +/- 4.8(stat) +/- 2.9(syst) MeV/c(2). The product branching fraction is measured to be B(psi(3686) -> gamma eta(c)(2S)) X B(eta(c)(2S) -> gamma(KSK +/-)-K-0 pi(-/+)pi(+)pi(-) = (7.03 +/- 2.10(stat) +/- 0.70(syst)) X 10(-6). This measurement complements a previous BESIII measurement of psi(3686) -> gamma eta(c)(2S) with eta(c)(2S) -> (KSK +/-)-K-0 pi(-/+) and K+K-pi(0).
