Abstract

We study the processes 𝑒+⁢𝑒− →2⁢(𝜋+⁢𝜋−)⁢𝜋0⁢𝜋0⁢𝜋0⁢𝛾 and 2⁢(𝜋+⁢𝜋−)⁢𝜋0⁢𝜋0⁢𝜂⁢𝛾 in which an energetic photon is radiated from the initial state. The data were collected with the BABAR detector at SLAC. About 14 000 and 4700 events, respectively, are selected from a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 469  fb−1 . The invariant mass of the hadronic final state defines the effective 𝑒+⁢𝑒− center-of-mass energy. The center-of-mass energies range from threshold to 4.5 GeV. From the mass spectra, the first ever measurements of the 𝑒+⁢𝑒− →2⁢(𝜋+⁢𝜋−)⁢𝜋0⁢𝜋0⁢𝜋0 and the 𝑒+⁢𝑒− →2⁢(𝜋+⁢𝜋−)⁢𝜋0⁢𝜋0⁢𝜂 cross sections are performed. The contributions from 𝜔⁢𝜋+⁢𝜋−⁢𝜋0⁢𝜋0 , 𝜂⁢2⁢(𝜋+⁢𝜋−) , and other intermediate states are presented. We observe the 𝐽/𝜓 and 𝜓⁡(2⁢𝑆) in most of these final states and measure the corresponding branching fractions, many of them for the first time.
