Abstract
The product of the electronic width of the $Ï(2S)$ meson and the branching fraction of its decay to the muon pair was measured in the $e^{+}e^{-} \to Ï(2S) \to μ^{+}μ^{-}$ process using nine data sets corresponding to an integrated luminosity of about 6.5 pb$^{-1}$ collected with the KEDR detector at the VEPP-4M electron-positron collider: \[ Î_{ee}\times\mathcal{B}_{μμ} = 19.3 \pm 0.3 \pm 0.5 ~\text{eV}. \] Adding the previous KEDR results on hadronic and leptonic channels, the values of the $Ï(2S)$ electronic width were obtained under two assumptions: either with the assumption of lepton universality \[ Î_{ee} = 2.279 \pm 0.015 \pm 0.042 ~\text{keV} \] or without it, summing up hadronic and three independent leptonic channels: \[ Î_{ee} = 2.282 \pm 0.015 \pm 0.042 ~\text{keV}. \]
