We find Gamma(eta_c --> gamma gamma)B(eta_c --> K anti-K pi)=0.374+-0.009+-0.031 keV, and measure the gamma gamma* --> eta_c transition form factor in the momentum transfer range from 2 to 50 GeV^2. The analysis is based on 469 fb-1 of integrated luminosity collected at PEP-II with the BABAR detector at e+e- center-of-mass energies near 10.6 GeV.18 p.application/pdfeng(c) American Physical Society, 2010HadronsMesons (Física nuclear)HadronsMesons (Nuclear physics)Measurement of the gamma gamma* --> eta_c transition form factorinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article6019382018-09-25info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
