Abstract
The BES-III Collaboration recently reported the observation of anomalously large isospin violations in , where the in the invariant mass spectrum appears to be much narrower () than the peak width () measured in other processes. We show that a mechanism, named as triangle singularity (TS), can produce a narrow enhancement between the charged and neutral thresholds, i.e., . It can also lead to different invariant mass spectra for and , which can possibly explain the long-standing puzzle about the need for two close states and in and , respectively. The TS could be a key to our understanding of the nature of and advance our knowledge about the mixing between and .
