We explicitly show that the transition form factor of $\\eta_c \\to \\gamma^* \\gamma$ as a function of the momentum transfer is consistent with the experimental data by the BaBar collaboration, while the decay constant of $\\eta_c$ is found to be $f_{\\eta_{c}}=230.5^{+52.2}_{-61.0}$ and $303.6^{+115.2}_{-116.4}$ MeV for $\\eta_c\\sim c\\bar{c}$ by using two $\\eta_c \\to \\gamma \\gamma$ decay widths of $5.3\\pm 0.5$ and $7.2\\pm2.1$ keV, given by Particle Data Group and Lattice QCD calculation, respectively."},"claims":{"count":0,"items":[],"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"source":{"id":"1307.3852","kind":"arxiv","version":1},"verdict":{"id":null,"model_set":{},"created_at":null,"strongest_claim":"","one_line_summary":"","pipeline_version":null,"weakest_assumption":"","pith_extraction_headline":""},"references":{"count":0,"sample":[],"resolved_work":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57","internal_anchors":0},"formal_canon":{"evidence_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"author_claims":{"count":0,"strong_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"builder_version":"pith-number-builder-2026-05-17-v1"}
