A<sc>bstract</sc> We present the analysis of two-particle angular correlations using coordinate systems defined with the conventional beam axis and the event thrust axis. We propose the latter as a good representation for the correlation structure interpretation in thee⁺e⁻collision system. Thee⁺e⁻collisions to hadronic final states at center-of-mass energies of$$ \sqrt{s} $$ $\sqrt{s}$= 10.52 GeV and 10.58 GeV are recorded by the Belle detector at KEKB. In this paper, results on the first dataset are supplementary to the previous Belle publication [1]. At the same time, the latter is the first two-particle correlation measurement at collision energy on theΥ(4S) resonance and is sensitive to its decay products. Measurements are reported as a function of the charged-particle multiplicity. Finally, a qualitative understanding of the correlation structure is discussed using a combination of Monte Carlo simulations and experimental data. 

A bstract We report the measurement of the two-photon decay width of χ c 2 (1 P ) in two-photon processes at the Belle experiment. We analyze the process γγ → χ c 2 (1 P ) → J/ψγ , J/ψ → ℓ + ℓ − ( ℓ = e or μ ) using a data sample of 971 fb − 1 collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB e + e − collider. In this analysis, the product of the two-photon decay width of χ c 2 (1 P ) and the branching fraction is determined to be $$ {\Gamma}_{\gamma \gamma}\left({\chi}_{c2}(1P)\right)\mathcal{B}\left({\chi}_{c2}(1P)\to J/\psi \gamma \right)\mathcal{B}\left(J/\psi \to {\ell}^{+}{\ell}^{-}\right)=14.8\pm 0.3\left(\textrm{stat}.\right)\pm 0.7\left(\textrm{syst}.\right) $$ Γ γγ χ c 2 1 P B χ c 2 1 P → J / ψγ B J / ψ → ℓ + ℓ − = 14.8 ± 0.3 stat . ± 0.7 syst . eV, which corresponds to Γ γγ ( χ c 2 (1 P )) = 653 ± 13(stat.) ± 31(syst.) ± 17(B.R.) eV, where the third uncertainty is from $$ \mathcal{B} $$ B ( χ c 2 (1 P ) → J/ψγ ) and $$ \mathcal{B} $$ B ( J/ψ → ℓ + ℓ − ).
