dc.description.abstractUsing the data sets taken at center-of-mass energies above 4 GeV by the BESIII detector at the BEPCII storage ring, we search for the reaction e⁺e⁻→ γ(ISR}X(3872) → γ{ISR}π⁺π⁻J/ψ via the Initial State Radiation technique. The production of a resonance with quantum numbers JPC=1⁺⁺ such as the X(3872) via single photon e+e- annihilation is forbidden, but is allowed by a next-to-leading order box diagram. We do not observe a significant signal of X(3872), and therefore give an upper limit for the electronic width times the branching fraction Γ{ee} ^{X(3872)} ℬ(X(3872) → π⁺π⁻J/ψ) < 0.13 eV at the 90% confidence level. This measurement improves upon existing limits by a factor of 46. Using the same final state, we also measure the electronic width of the ψ(3686) to be Γ {ee} ^{ψ(3686)} = 2213 ± 18{stat} ± 99{sys} eV. © 2015 The Authors.en_US
