Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We investigate the nature of the near-threshold enhancement in the p {bar p} invariant mass spectrum of the reaction J/[Psi] → [gamma] p {bar p} reported recently by the BES Collaboration. Using the Juelich N {bar N} model we show that the mass dependence of the p {bar p} spectrum close to the threshold can be reproduced by the S-wave p {bar p} final state interaction in the isospin I=1 state within the Watson-Migdal approach. However, because of our poor knowledge of the N {bar N} interaction near threshold and of the J/[Psi] → [gamma] p {bar p} reaction mechanism and in view of the controversial situation in the decay J/[Psi] → [pi]° p {bar p}, where no obvious signs of a p {bar p} final state interaction are seen, explanations other than final state interactions cannot be ruled out at the present stage.
