Abstracts
Inclusive production by e+ e annihilation for cm energies between 4 and 5.2 GeV was studied. A strong signal was observed at 4.4 GeV, produced predominantly in conjunction with a low energy photon suggestive of F* or F** production. From events containing a ± and , and a low energy photon the F and F* masses were found to be 2.03 ± 0.06 and 2.14 ± 0.06 GeV, respectively.
