The processes hc→γP(P=η′, η, π0) are studied with a sample of (27.12±0.14)×108 ψ(3686) events collected by the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider. The decay hc→γη is observed for the first time with the significance of 9.0σ, and the branching fraction is determined to be (3.77±0.55±0.13±0.26)×10−4, while B(hc→γη′) is measured to be (1.40±0.11±0.04±0.10)×10−3, where the first uncertainties are statistical, the second systematic, and the third from the branching fraction of ψ(3686)→π0hc. The combination of these results allows for a precise determination of Rhc=B(hc→γη)B(hc→γη′), which is calculated to be (27.0±4.4±1.0)%. The results are valuable for gaining a deeper understanding of η−η′ mixing, and its manifestation within quantum chromodynamics. No significant signal is found for the decay hc→γπ0, and an upper limit is placed on its branching fraction of B(hc→γπ0)<5.0×10−5, at the 90% confidence level.
Production of the doubly charged Δ baryon in e⁺e⁻ annihilation at energies from 2.3094 to 2.6464 GeV
(2023)
The processes e+e−→Δ++Δ¯−− and e+e−→Δ++p¯π−+c.c. are studied for the first time with 179 pb−1 of e+e− annihilation data collected with the BESIII detector at center-of-mass energies from 2.3094 GeV to 2.6464 GeV. No significant signal for the e+e−→Δ++Δ¯−− process is observed and the upper limit of the Born cross section is estimated at each energy point. For the process e+e−→Δ++p¯π−+c.c., a significant signal is observed at center-of-mass energies near 2.6454 GeV and the corresponding Born cross section is reported.
Based on 4.5 fb−1 of e+e− collision data accumulated at center-of-mass energies between 4.600GeV and 4.699GeV with the BESIII detector, we measure the absolute branching fraction of the Cabibbo-favored decay Λ+c→nK0Sπ+ with the precision improved by a factor of 2.8 and report the first evidence for the singly-Cabibbo-suppressed decay Λ+c→nK0SK+. The branching fractions for Λ+c→nK0Sπ+ and Λ+c→nK0SK+ are determined to be (1.86±0.08±0.04)×10−2 and (4.3+1.9−1.5±0.3)×10−4, respectively, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second ones are systematic.
We present a study of the process e+e−→ηϕ using data samples collected with the BESIII detector corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 15.03 fb−1 at 23 center-of-mass energies from 3.773 to 4.600 GeV. The Born cross sections are measured at each energy and a coherent fit to cross-section lineshape is performed using a Breit-Wigner parametrization to search for charmonium-like vector states. No significant signals of the Y(4230) and Y(4360) resonances are observed.
We present the first search for the leptonic decays D∗+→e+νe and D∗+→μ+νμ by analyzing a data sample of electron-positron collisions recorded with the BESIII detector at center-of-mass energies between 4.178 and 4.226 GeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 6.32~fb−1. No significant signal is observed. The upper limits on the branching fractions for D∗+→e+νe and D∗+→μ+νμ are set to be 1.1×10−5 and 4.3×10−6 at 90\% confidence level, respectively.
We perform a study of the X(3872) lineshape using the data samples of e+e−→γX(3872), X(3872)→D0D¯0π0 and π+π−J/ψ collected with the BESIII detector. The effects of the coupled-channels and the off-shell D∗0 are included in the parameterization of the lineshape. The lineshape mass parameter is obtained to be MX=(3871.63±0.13+0.06−0.05) MeV. Two poles are found on the first and second Riemann sheets corresponding to the D∗0D¯0 branch cut. The pole location on the first sheet is much closer to the D∗0D¯0 threshold than the other, and is determined to be 7.04±0.15+0.07−0.08 MeV above the D0D¯0π0 threshold with an imaginary part −0.19±0.08+0.14−0.19 MeV.
Based on (10087±44)×106 J/ψ events collected with the BESIII detector, a partial wave analysis of the decay J/ψ→γK0SK0Sη′ is performed. The mass and width of the X(2370) are measured to be 2395±11(stat)+26−94(syst) MeV/c2 and 188+18−17(stat)+124−33(syst) MeV, respectively. The corresponding product branching fraction is B[J/ψ→γX(2370)]×B[X(2370)→f0(980)η′]×B[f0(980)→K0SK0S]=(1.31±0.22(stat)+2.85−0.84(syst))×10−5. The statistical significance of the X(2370) is greater than 11.7σ and the spin-parity is determined to be 0−+ for the first time. The measured mass and spin-parity of the X(2370) are consistent with the predictions of the lightest pseudoscalar glueball.
The absolute branching fraction of the decay Λc(2625)+→Λ+cπ+π− is measured for the first time to be (50.7±5.0stat.±4.9syst.)% with 368.48 pb−1 of e+e− collision data collected by the BESIII detector at the center-of-mass energies of s√=4.918 and 4.950 GeV. This result is lower than the naive prediction of 67\%, obtained from isospin symmetry, by more than 2σ, thereby indicating that the novel mechanism referred to as the \textit{threshold effect}, proposed for the strong decays of Λc(2595)+, also applies to Λc(2625)+. This measurement is necessary to obtain the coupling constants for the transitions between s-wave and p-wave charmed baryons in heavy hadron chiral perturbation theory. In addition, we search for the decay Λc(2595)+→Λ+cπ+π−. No significant signal is observed, and the upper limit on its branching fraction is determined to be 80.8\% at the 90\% confidence level.
Using 4.7 fb−1 of e+e− collision data at center-of-mass energies from 4.661 to 4.951 GeV collected by the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, we observe the X(3872) production process e+e−→ωX(3872) for the first time. The significance is 7.8σ, including both the statistical and systematic uncertainties. The e+e−→ωX(3872) Born cross section and the corresponding upper limit at 90\% confidence level at each energy point are reported. The line shape of the cross section indicates that the ωX(3872) signals may be from the decays of some non-trivial structures.
Evidence for the singly Cabibbo suppressed decay Λ+c→pπ0 is reported for the first time with a statistical significance of 3.7σ based on 6.0 fb−1 of e+e− collision data collected at center-of-mass energies between 4.600 and 4.843 GeV with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider. The absolute branching fraction of Λ+c→pπ0 is measured to be (1.56+0.72−0.58±0.20)×10−4. Combining with the branching fraction of Λ+c→nπ+, (6.6±1.3)×10−4, the ratio of the branching fractions of Λ+c→nπ+ and Λ+c→pπ0 is calculated to be 3.2+2.2−1.2. As an important input for the theoretical models describing the decay mechanisms of charmed baryons, our result indicates that the non-factorizable contributions play an essential role and their interference with the factorizable contributions should not be significant. In addition, the absolute branching fraction of Λ+c→pη is measured to be (1.63±0.31stat±0.11syst)×10−3.
Based on data samples collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, the process e+e−→Σ+Σ¯− is studied at center-of-mass energies s√ = 2.3960, 2.6454, and 2.9000~GeV. Using a fully differential angular description of the final state particles, the complete information of the Σ+ electromagnetic form factors in the time-like region is extracted. The relative phase between the electric and magnetic form factors is determined to be sinΔΦ = -0.67~±~0.29~(stat.)~±~0.18~(syst.) at s√ = 2.3960~GeV, ΔΦ = 55∘~±~19∘~(stat.) ±~14∘~(syst.) at s√ = 2.6454~GeV, and 78∘~±~22∘~(stat.) ±~9∘~(syst.) at s√ = 2.9000~GeV. For the first time, the phase of the hyperon electromagnetic form factors is explored in a wide range of four-momentum transfer. The evolution of the phase along with four-momentum transfer is an important input for understanding its asymptotic behavior and the dynamics of baryons.
By analyzing 7.33\,fb−1 of e+e− collision data collected at center-of-mass energies between 4.128 and 4.226 GeV with the BESIII detector, we search for the semileptonic decays D+s→K1(1270)0e+νe and D+s→b1(1235)0e+νe for the first time. No significant signals are observed for either decay mode. The upper limits on the (product) branching fractions are determined to be B[D+s→K1(1270)0e+νe]<4.1×10−4 and B[D+s→b1(1235)0e+νe]⋅B[b1(1235)0→ωπ0]<6.4×10−4 at 90\% confidence level.
Observation of a vector charmoniumlike state at 4.7 GeV/c² and search for Zcₛ in e⁺e⁻ → K⁺K⁻J/ψ
(2023)
Using data samples with an integrated luminosity of 5.85~fb−1 collected at center-of-mass energies from 4.61 to 4.95 GeV with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII storage ring, we measure the cross section for the process e+e−→K+K−J/ψ. A new resonance with a mass of M=4708+17−15±21 MeV/c2 and a width of Γ=126+27−23±30 MeV is observed in the energy-dependent line shape of the e+e−→K+K−J/ψ cross section with a significance over 5σ. The K+J/ψ system is also investigated to search for charged charmoniumlike states, but no significant Z+cs states are observed. Upper limits on the Born cross sections for e+e−→K−Zcs(3985)+/K−Zcs(4000)++c.c. with Zcs(3985)±/Zcs(4000)±→K±J/ψ are reported at 90\% confidence levels. The ratio of branching fractions B(Zcs(3985)+→K+J/ψ)B(Zcs(3985) +→ (D¯0D∗+s+D¯∗0D+s)) is measured to be less than 0.03 at 90\% confidence level.
Based on a data set of (27.12±0.10)×108 ψ(3686) events collected at the BESIII experiment, the absolute branching fractions of the three dominant Ω− decays are measured to be BΩ−→Ξ0π−=(25.03±0.44±0.53)%, BΩ−→Ξ−π0=(8.43±0.52±0.28)%, and BΩ−→ΛK−=(66.3±0.8±2.0)%, where the first and second uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively. The ratio between BΩ−→Ξ0π− and BΩ−→Ξ−π0 is determined to be 2.97±0.19±0.11, which is in good agreement with the PDG value of 2.74±0.15, but greater by more than four standard deviations than the theoretical prediction of 2 obtained from the ΔI=1/2 rule.
The Born cross sections and effective form factors of the process 𝑒+𝑒−→Λ¯Σ0+c.c. are measured at 14 center-of-mass energy points from 2.3094 to 3.0800 GeV, based on data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of (478.5±4.8) pb−1 collected with the BESIII detector. A nonzero Born cross section is observed at the center-of-mass energy of 2.3094 GeV with a statistical significance of more than five standard deviations, and the cross sections at other energies are obtained with improved precision compared to earlier measurements from the BABAR Collaboration. The Born cross-section line shape is described better by a shape considering the strong-interaction effects than by a pQCD motivated functional form.
Based on a sample of (448.1±2.9)×106 𝜓(3686) events collected with the BESIII detector at BEPCII, the decays of 𝜓(3686)→𝐾−Λ¯Ξ++c.c. with ¯Ξ+→¯Λ𝜋+, ¯Λ→¯𝑝𝜋+ are studied. We investigate the two excited resonances, Ξ(1690)− and Ξ(1820)−, which are each observed with large significance (≫10𝜎) in the 𝐾−Λ invariant mass distributions. A partial wave analysis is performed, and the spin-parities of Ξ(1690)− and Ξ(1820)− are measured to be 12− and 32−, respectively. The masses, widths, and product branching fractions of Ξ(1690)− and Ξ(1820)− are also measured.
Based on (2712.4±14.3)×106 events recorded at the 𝜓(3686) nominal mass collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII collider, the 𝜓(3686)→Σ+¯Σ−𝜔 and Σ+¯Σ−𝜙 decays are observed for the first time with statistical significances of 13.8𝜎 and 7.6𝜎, respectively. The corresponding branching fractions are measured to be ℬ(𝜓(3686)→Σ+¯Σ−𝜔)=(1.89±0.18±0.21)×10−5 and ℬ(𝜓(3686)→Σ+¯Σ−𝜙)=(2.96±0.54±0.41)×10−6, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic.
The Born cross sections and effective form factors of the process e+e−→ΛΣ¯0+c.c. are measured at 14 center-of-mass energy points from 2.3094 to 3.0800 GeV, based on data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of (478.5±4.8) pb−1 collected with the BESIII detector. A non-zero Born cross section is observed at the center-of-mass energy of 2.3094 GeV with a statistical significance of more than five standard deviations, and the cross sections at other energies are obtained with improved precision compared to earlier measurements from the BaBar Collaboration. The Born cross-section lineshape is described better by a shape with a plateau near the threshold than by a pQCD motivated functional form.
The first observation of the decays J/ψ→p¯Σ+K0S and J/ψ→pΣ¯−K0S is reported using (10087±44)×106 J/ψ events recorded by the BESIII detector at the BEPCII storage ring. The branching fractions of each channel are determined to be B(J/ψ→p¯Σ+K0S)=(1.361±0.006±0.025)×10−4 and B(J/ψ→pΣ¯−K0S)=(1.352±0.006±0.025)×10−4. The combined result is B(J/ψ→p¯Σ+K0S+c.c.)=(2.725±0.009±0.050)×10−4, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic. The results presented are in good agreement with the branching fractions of the isospin partner decay J/ψ→pK−Σ¯0+c.c..
Using a sample of (27.12±0.14)×108 ψ(3686) events collected with the BESIII detector, the decay ψ(3686)→ΛΛ¯η′ with η′ subsequently decaying into γπ+π− and ηπ+π− is observed for the first time. The branching fraction of ψ(3686)→ΛΛ¯η′ is measured to be (7.34±0.94(stat.)±0.43(sys.))×10−6. No resonant structures are evident in the Λη′, Λ¯η′ and ΛΛ¯ mass spectra.
