The &psgr;(2S) total decay width, partial widths to hadrons, &mgr;+&mgr;−, &pgr;+&pgr;−J/&psgr; final states and corresponding branching ratios are measured with a scan experiment in the vicinity of &psgr;(2S) resonance at the BES. The preliminary results give much improved accuracies compared with existing data. Also reported are the branching ratios for &psgr;(2S) to &tgr;‐pair and radiative decays. © 2002 American Institute of Physics
