Lattice QCD study of the radiative decays J/psito η_cγ and h_cto η_cγ
read the original abstract
We present the results of our lattice QCD study of the hadronic matrix elements relevant to the physical radiative $J/\psi\to \eta_c\gamma$ and $h_c\to \eta_c\gamma$ decays. We used the twisted mass QCD action with $N_{\rm f}=2$ light dynamical quarks and from the computations made at four lattice spacings we were able to take the continuum limit. Besides the form factors parameterizing the above decays we also computed: (i) the hyperfine splitting and obtained $\Delta = 112\pm 4$ MeV, (ii) the annihilation constant $f_{J/\psi}$ which agrees with the one inferred from the measured $\Gamma(J/\psi \to e^+e^-)$.

Charmonium radiative transitions to dileptons from lattice QCD: The case of $h_c \to \eta_c \ell^+\ell^-$ and $\chi_{c1} \to J/\psi\,\ell^+\ell^-$
First fully dynamical lattice QCD yields Γ(h_c → η_c e⁺e⁻) = 5.45(19) keV (3σ above BESIII) and Γ(χ_c1 → J/ψ e⁺e⁻) = 2.869(90) keV, with continuum-extrapolated results and q² distributions.

Production Rate of Glueball-like $X(2370)$ in $J/\psi$ Radiative Decay
Mixing with a small angle between the pseudoscalar glueball and η_c can increase Br(J/ψ → γ X(2370)) well above the pure-glueball value of 2.3(8)×10^{-4}.
