Using 58 million J/ψ decays obtained by BESII, a charged κ particle is observed in the analysis of the KSπ± system recoiling against K⁎(892)∓ selected in J/ψ→KSKSπ+π−. The mass and width values of the charged κ are obtained to be (826±49−34+49)MeV/c2 and (449±156−81+144)MeV/c2 for the Breit–Wigner parameters, and the pole position is determined to be (764±63−54+71)−i(306±149−85+143)MeV/c2. They are in good agreement with those of the neutral κ observed by the BES Collaboration.
