Using inclusive decays of the J/ψ, a precise determination of the number of J/ψ events collected with the BESIII detector is performed. For the two data sets taken in 2009 and 2012, the numbers of J/ψ events are recalculated to be (224.0±1.3)×106 and (1088.5±4.4)×106 respectively, which are in good agreement with the previous measurements. For the J/ψ sample taken in 2017--2019, the number of events is determined to be (8774.0±39.4)×106. The total number of J/ψ events collected with the BESIII detector is determined to be (10087±44)×106, where the uncertainty is dominated by systematic effects and the statistical uncertainty is negligible.
We report an amplitude analysis and branching fraction measurement of D+s→K+K−π+ decay using a data sample of 3.19 fb−1 recorded with BESIII detector at a center-of-mass energy of 4.178 GeV.
We perform a model-independent partial wave analysis in the low K+K− mass region to determine the K+K− S-wave lineshape,
followed by an amplitude analysis of our very pure high-statistics sample.
The amplitude analysis provides an accurate determination of the detection efficiency allowing us to measure the branching fraction B(D+s→K+K−π+)=(5.47±0.08stat±0.13sys)%.
Based on 2.93~fb−1 e+e− collision data taken at center-of-mass energy of 3.773 GeV by the BESIII detector, we report the measurements of the absolute branching fractions of D0→K+K−π0π0, D0→K0SK0Sπ+π−, D0→K0SK−π+π0, D0→K0SK+π−π0, D+→K+K−π+π0, D+→K0SK+π0π0, D+→K0SK−π+π+, D+→K0SK+π+π−, and D+→K0SK0Sπ+π0. The decays D0→K+K−π0π0, D0→K0SK−π+π0, D0→K0SK+π−π0, D+→K0SK0Sπ+π0, and D+→K0SK+π0π0 are observed for the first time. The branching fractions of the decays D0→K0SK0Sπ+π−, D+→K+K−π+π0, D+→K0SK−π+π+, and D+→K0SK+π+π− are measured with improved precision compared to the world-average values.
We report the first observation of the semimuonic decay 𝐷+→𝜔𝜇+𝜈𝜇 using an 𝑒+𝑒− collision data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.93 fb−1 collected with the BESIII detector at a center-of-mass energy of 3.773 GeV. The absolute branching fraction of the 𝐷+→𝜔𝜇+𝜈𝜇 decay is measured to be ℬ𝐷+→𝜔𝜇+𝜈𝜇=(17.7±1.8stat±1.1syst)×10−4. Its ratio with the world average value of the branching fraction of the 𝐷+→𝜔𝑒+𝜈𝑒 decay probes lepton flavor universality and it is determined to be ℬ𝐷+→𝜔𝜇+𝜈𝜇/ℬPDG 𝐷+→𝜔𝑒+𝜈𝑒=1.05±0.14, in agreement with the standard model expectation within one standard deviation.
he Born cross sections for the process 𝑒+𝑒−→𝜂′𝜋+𝜋− at different center-of-mass energies between 2.00 and 3.08 GeV are reported with improved precision from an analysis of data samples collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII storage ring. An obvious structure is observed in the Born cross section line shape. Fit as a Breit-Wigner resonance, it has a statistical significance of 6.3𝜎 and a mass and width of 𝑀=(2111±43±25) MeV/𝑐2 and Γ=(135±34±30) MeV, where the uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively. These measured resonance parameters agree with the measurements of BABAR in 𝑒+𝑒−→𝜂′𝜋+𝜋− and BESIII in 𝑒+𝑒−→𝜔𝜋0 within two standard deviations.
Measurement of cross sections for e⁺e⁻ → μ⁺μ⁻ at center-of-mass energies from 3.80 to 4.60 GeV
(2020)
The observed cross sections for 𝑒+𝑒−→𝜇+𝜇− at energies from 3.8 to 4.6 GeV are measured using data samples taken with the BESIII detector operated at the BEPCII collider. We measure the muonic widths and determine the branching fractions of the charmonium states 𝜓(4040), 𝜓(4160), and 𝜓(4415) decaying to 𝜇+𝜇−, as well as making a first determination of the phase of the amplitudes. In addition, we observe evidence for a structure in the dimuon cross section near 4.220 GeV/𝑐2, which we denote as 𝑆(4220). Analyzing a coherent sum of amplitudes yields eight solutions, one of which gives a mass of 𝑀𝑆(4220) = 4216.7±8.9±4.1 MeV/𝑐2, a total width of Γtot S(4220) = 47.2±22.8±10.5 MeV, and a muonic width of Γ𝜇𝜇 𝑆(4220) = 1.53±1.26±0.54 keV, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic. The eight solutions give the central values of the mass, total width, muonic width to be, respectively, in the range from 4212.8 to 4219.4 MeV/𝑐2, from 36.4 to 49.6 MeV, and from 1.09 to 1.53 keV. The statistical significance of the 𝑆(4220) signal is 3.9𝜎. Correcting the total dimuon cross section for radiative effects yields a statistical significance for this structure of 8.1𝜎.
Study of the decay Dₛ⁺ → π⁺π⁺π⁻η and observation of the W-annihilation decay Dₛ⁺ → a₀(980)⁺ρ⁰
(2021)
The decay 𝐷+𝑠→𝜋+𝜋+𝜋−𝜂 is observed for the first time, using 𝑒+𝑒− collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 6.32 fb−1, collected by the BESIII detector at center-of-mass energies between 4.178 and 4.226 GeV. The absolute branching fraction for this decay is measured to be ℬ(𝐷+𝑠→𝜋+𝜋+𝜋−𝜂)=(3.12±0.13stat±0.09syst)%. The first amplitude analysis of this decay reveals the substructures in 𝐷+𝑠→𝜋+𝜋+𝜋−𝜂 and determines the relative fractions and the phases among these substructures. The dominant intermediate process is 𝐷+𝑠→𝑎1(1260)+𝜂,𝑎1(1260)+→𝜌(770)0𝜋+ with a branching fraction of (1.73±0.14stat±0.08syst)%. We also observe the 𝑊-annihilation process 𝐷+𝑠→𝑎0(980)+𝜌(770)0, 𝑎0(980)+→𝜋+𝜂 with a branching fraction of (0.21±0.08stat±0.05syst)%, which is larger than the branching fractions of other measured pure 𝑊-annihilation decays by 1 order of magnitude.
We study ηc production at center-of-mass energies s√ from 4.18 to 4.60 GeV in e+e− annihilation data collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII storage ring, corresponding to 7.3 fb−1 of integrated luminosity. We measure the cross sections of the three different exclusive reactions e+e−→ηcπ+π−π0, e+e−→ηcπ+π−, and e+e−→ηcπ0γ. We find significant ηc production in e+e−→ηcπ+π−π0 at s√ of 4.23 GeV and 4.26 GeV and observe a significant energy-dependent Born cross section that we measure to be consistent with the production via the intermediate Y(4260) resonance. In addition, we perform a search for a charmonium-like Zc state close to the DD¯ threshold that decays to ηcπ, involving ground state charmonium, and observe no signal. Corresponding upper limits on the cross section of ηc and Zc production are provided, where the yields are not found to be significant.
Based on 2.93~fb−1 e+e− collision data taken at center-of-mass energy of 3.773 GeV by the BESIII detector, we report the measurements of the absolute branching fractions of D0→K+K−π0π0, D0→K0SK0Sπ+π−, D0→K0SK−π+π0, D0→K0SK+π−π0, D+→K+K−π+π0, D+→K0SK+π0π0, D+→K0SK−π+π+, D+→K0SK+π+π−, and D+→K0SK0Sπ+π0. The decays D0→K+K−π0π0, D0→K0SK−π+π0, D0→K0SK+π−π0, D+→K0SK0Sπ+π0, and D+→K0SK+π0π0 are observed for the first time. The branching fractions of the decays D0→K0SK0Sπ+π−, D+→K+K−π+π0, D+→K0SK−π+π+, and D+→K0SK+π+π− are measured with improved precision compared to the world-average values.
Using an e+e− annihilation data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.93fb−1 collected at the center-of-mass energy of 3.773\,GeV with the BESIII detector, we measure the absolute branching fractions of D+→ηηπ+, D+→ηπ+π0, and D0→ηπ+π− to be (2.96±0.24±0.13)×10−3, (2.23±0.15±0.11)×10−3, and (1.20±0.07±0.04)×10−3, respectively, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second ones systematic. The D+→ηηπ+ decay is observed for the first time and the branching fractions of D+(0)→ηπ+π0(−) are measured with much improved precision. In addition we test for CP asymmetries in the separated charge-conjugate branching fractions; no evidence of CP violation is found.
