amplitudes in terms of $g$ and $h$ we approximate the two amplitudes in terms of two parameters, $A_{c\bar{s}}$ and $S_{c\bar{s}}$ and use the numerical values $S_{c\bar{s}}=3.27$ and $A_{c\bar{s}}=1.67$ obtained from the light meson decay analysis of Ref. [@godfrey85xj]. Further, following Ref. [@godfrey85xj], we take $P_{c\bar{s}}=D_{c\bar{s}}=S_{c\bar{s}}=3.27$. We found that if we instead use fitted values for $g$ and $h$ we obtain very similar numerical results for the partial widths.

To simplify the notation in the table we define the amplitudes: $$\tilde{A}_{c\bar{s}} = A_{c\bar{s}} \left( { m_c\over{m_c + m_{\bar{s}} } }\right)^2 
{q^3\over{\beta \beta_{c\bar{s}}^2 } } F(q^2)$$

$$\tilde{P}_{c\bar{s}} = P_{c\bar{s}} \left( { m_c\over{m_c + m_{\bar{s}} } }\right)
{q\over{ \beta_{c\bar{s}} } } F(q^2)$$

$$\tilde{D}_{c\bar{s}} = D_{c\bar{s}} \left( { m_c\over{m_c + m_{\bar{s}} } }\right)
{q\over{\beta_{c\bar{s}} } } F(q^2)$$

The amplitudes and partial widths for the $2S$ and $1D$ multiplets are given in Table \[tab:decays\]. The widths in column 4 of Table \[tab:decays\] were calculated using the predicted masses for the initial states and the measured values from the PDG [@Beringer:1900zz] for the final states. The widths shown in column 5 were obtained using the measured masses of the $D_{s1}^*$ and $D_{sJ}^*$ states: $M(2^3S_1)=M(D_{s1}^*)=2709$ MeV and $M(1^3D_1)=M(1^3D_3)=M(D_{sJ}^*)=2863$ MeV. In Table \[tab:models\] we compare our results to
