Measurement of the branching fractions for ψ(2s)→e+e- and ψ(2s)→μ+μ-

We measure the branching fractions of the ψ(2S) meson to the leptonic final states e+e- and μ+μ- relative to that for ψ(2S)→J/ψπ+π-. The method uses ψ(2S) mesons produced in the decay of B mesons at the Υ(4S) resonance in a data sample collected with the BABAR detector at the Stanford Linear Acceler...
