The larger radiative widths should be measurable at new high-intensity facilities being proposed, and in some cases may be measurable in data from existing experiments. The radiative decays are a strong discriminator between the $1^3S_1$ and $1^3D_1$ excitations, and can also be used to provide unique information about the decay products.23 pages, 6 figuresHigh Energy Physics - Phenomenologytext
