Open charm contributions to the E1 transitions of $\psi(3686)$ and $\psi(3770)\to \gamma\chi_{cJ}$

Understand

The E1 transitions of $\psi(3686)$ and $\psi(3770)\to \gamma\chi_{cJ}$ are investigated in a non-relativistic effective field theory (NREFT) where the open charm effects are included systematically as the leading corrections.

• It also allows a self-consistent inclusion of the $S$-$D$ mixing in the same framework.
• We are able to show that the open charm contributions are essential for understanding the significant discrepancies between the non-relativistic leading order calculations and the experimental data.
