Abstract
We report the observation of a narrow state decaying into $J/\ensuremath{\psi}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{+}{\ensuremath{\pi}}^{\ensuremath{-}}$ and produced in $220\text{ }{\mathrm{p}\mathrm{b}}^{\ensuremath{-}1}$ of $\stackrel{\ifmmode \bar{}\else \={}\fi{}}{p}p$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}=1.96\text{ }\mathrm{T}\mathrm{e}\mathrm{V}$ in the CDF II experiment. We observe $730\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}90$ decays. The mass is measured to be $3871.3\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.7(\mathrm{s}\mathrm{t}\mathrm{a}\mathrm{t})\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.4(\mathrm{s}\mathrm{y}\mathrm{s}\mathrm{t})\text{ }\mathrm{M}\mathrm{e}\mathrm{V}/{c}^{2}$, with an observed width consistent with the detector resolution. This is in agreement with the recent observation by the Belle Collaboration of the $X(3872)$ meson.
