Nonzero cross sections are observed very close to the production threshold. The measured Born cross sections of e+e-??c+?¯c(2625)-+c.c. are about 2-3 times greater than those of e+e-??c+?¯c(2595)-+c.c., providing the similar behavior as semileptonic decays of ?b0, but different behavior from that in the hadronic decays of ?b0. The Born cross sections are 15.6±3.1±0.9 pb and 29.4±3.7±2.7 pb for e+e-??c+?¯c(2595)-+c.c., and are 43.4±4.0±4.1 pb and 76.8±6.5±4.2 pb for e+e-??c+?¯c(2625)-+c.c. at s=4918.0 and 4950.9 MeV, respectively. Based on the polar angle distributions of the ?¯c(2625)- and ?c(2625)+, the form-factor ratios |GE|2+3|GM|2/|GC| are determined for e+e-??c+?¯c(2625)-+c.c. for the first time, which are 5.95±4.07±0.15 and 0.94±0.32±0.02 at s=4918.0 and 4950.9 MeV, respectively. All of these first uncertainties are statistical and second systematic. © 2024 authors. Published by the American Physical Society.
