Measurement of the inclusive branching fraction for ψ(3686)→KS0+anything

Using 5.9 pb−1 of e + e − annihilation data collected at center-of-mass energies from 3.640 to 3.701 GeV with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII Collider, we measure the observed cross sections of e + e − → K S 0 X (where X = anything ). From a fit to these observed cross sections with the sum of continuum and ψ ( 3686 ) and J / ψ Breit-Wigner functions and considering initial state radiation and the BEPCII beam energy spread, we obtain for the first time the product of ψ ( 3686 ) leptonic width and inclusive decay branching fraction Γ ψ ( 3686 ) e e B ( ψ ( 3686 ) → K S 0 X ) = ( 373.8 ± 6.7 ± 20.0 ) eV, and assuming Γ ψ ( 3686 ) e e is ( 2.33 ± 0.04 ) keV from PDG value, we measure B ( ψ ( 3686 ) → K S 0 X ) = ( 16.04 ± 0.29 ± 0.90 ) % , where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic.
