Model-independent determination of the strong-phase difference between D⁰ and D̄⁰ → π⁺π⁻π⁺π⁻ decays
(2024)
Measurements of the strong-phase difference between D0 and D¯0→π+π−π+π− are performed in bins of phase space. The study exploits a sample of quantum-correlated DD¯ mesons collected by the BESIII experiment in e+e− collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 3.773~GeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.93~fb−1. Here, D denotes a neutral charm meson in a superposition of flavor eigenstates. The reported results are valuable for measurements of the CP-violating phase γ (also denoted ϕ3) in B±→DK±, D→π+π−π+π− decays, and the binning schemes are designed to provide good statistical sensitivity to this parameter. The expected uncertainty on γ arising from the precision of the strong-phase measurements, when applied to very large samples of B-meson decays, is around 1.5∘ or 2∘, depending on the binning scheme. The binned strong-phase parameters are combined to give a value of F4π+=0.746±0.010±0.004 for the CP-even fraction of D0→π+π−π+π− decays, which is around 30\% more precise than the previous best measurement of this quantity.
Based on a data sample of 10 billion J/ψ events collected with the BESIII detector, improved measurements of the Dalitz decays η/η′→γe+e− are performed, where the η and η′ are produced through the radiative decays J/ψ→γη/η′. The branching fractions of η→γe+e− and η′→γe+e− are measured to be (7.07±0.05±0.23)×10−3 and (4.83±0.07±0.14)×10−4, respectively. Within the single pole model, the parameter of electromagnetic transition form factor for η→γe+e− is determined to be Λη=(0.749±0.027±0.007) GeV/c2. Within the multi-pole model, we extract the electromagnetic transition form factors for η′→γe+e− to be Λη′=(0.802±0.007±0.008) GeV/c2 and γη′=(0.113±0.010±0.002) GeV/c2. The results are consistent with both theoretical predictions and previous measurements. The characteristic sizes of the interaction regions for the η and η′ are calculated to be (0.645±0.023±0.007) fm and (0.596±0.005±0.006) fm, respectively. In addition, we search for the dark photon in η/η′→γe+e−, and the upper limits of the branching fractions as a function of the dark photon are given at 90\% confidence level.
In this Letter, a systematic study of the weak radiative hyperon decay Ξ0→Λγ at an electron-positron collider using entangled Ξ0Ξ¯0 pair events is presented. The absolute branching fraction for this decay has been measured for the first time, and is (1.347±0.066stat.±0.054syst.)×10−3. The decay asymmetry parameter, which characterizes the effect of parity violation in the decay, is determined to be −0.741±0.062stat.±0.019syst.. The obtained results are consistent with the world average values within the uncertainties, offering valuable insights into the underlying mechanism governing the weak radiative hyperon decays. The charge conjugation parity (CP) symmetries of branching fraction and decay asymmetry parameter in the decay are also studied. No statistically significant violation of charge conjugation parity symmetry is observed.

Using e+e− collision data collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII collider, the Born cross sections of e+e−→Λ+cΛ¯c(2595)−+c.c. and e+e−→Λ+cΛ¯c(2625)−+c.c. are measured for the first time at center-of-mass energies of s√=4918.0 and 4950.9 MeV. Non-zero cross sections are observed very close to the production threshold. The measured Born cross sections of e+e−→Λ+cΛ¯c(2625)−+c.c. are about 2∼3 times greater than those of e+e−→Λ+cΛ¯c(2595)−+c.c., thereby indicating that the exotic structure potentially exists in the excited charmed baryons. The Born cross sections are 15.6±3.1±0.9 pb and 29.4±3.7±2.7 pb for e+e−→Λ+cΛ¯c(2595)−+c.c., and are 43.4±4.0±4.1 pb and 76.8±6.5±4.2 pb for e+e−→Λ+cΛ¯c(2625)−+c.c. at s√=4918.0 and 4950.9 MeV, respectively. Based on the polar angle distributions of the Λ¯c(2625)− and Λc(2625)+, the form-factor ratios |GE|2+3|GM|2−−−−−−−−−−−−√/|GC| are determined for e+e−→Λ+cΛ¯c(2625)−+c.c. for the first time, which are 5.95±4.07±0.15 and 0.94±0.32±0.02 at s√=4918.0 and 4950.9 MeV, respectively. All of these first uncertainties are statistical and second systematic.
Based on (2.712±0.014)×109 ψ(3686) events collected by the BESIII collaboration, evidence of the hadronic decay hc→K0SK+π−+c.c. is found with a significance of 4.3σ in the ψ(3686)→π0hc process. The branching fraction of hc→K0SK+π−+c.c. is measured to be (7.3±0.8±1.8)×10−4, where the first and second uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively. Combining with the exclusive decay width of ηc→KK¯π, our result indicates inconsistencies with both pQCD and NRQCD predictions.
Using 7.93 fb−1 of e+e− collision data collected at the center-of-mass energy of 3.773 GeV with the BESIII detector, we measure the absolute branching fractions of D0→K−e+νe, D0→K−μ+νμ, D+→K¯0e+νe, and D+→K¯0μ+νμ to be (3.509±0.009stat.±0.013syst.)%, (3.408±0.011stat.±0.013syst.)%, (8.856±0.039stat.±0.078syst.)%, and (8.661±0.046stat.±0.080syst.)%, respectively. By performing a simultaneous fit to the partial decay rates of these four decays, the product of the hadronic form factor fK+(0) and the modulus of the c→s CKM matrix element |Vcs| is determined to be fK+(0)|Vcs|=0.7162±0.0011stat.±0.0012syst.. Taking the value of |Vcs|=0.97349±0.00016 from the standard model global fit or that of fK+(0)=0.7452±0.0031 from the LQCD calculation as input, we derive the results fK+(0)=0.7357±0.0011stat.±0.0012syst. and |Vcs|=0.9611±0.0015stat.±0.0016syst.±0.0040LQCD.
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 (27.12±0.14)×108 𝜓(2𝑆) events collected by the BESIII detector, we search for the decay 𝜂𝑐(2𝑆)→𝜋+𝜋−𝜂𝑐 via 𝜓(2𝑆)→𝛾𝜂𝑐(2𝑆). No significant signal is observed, and the upper limit on the product branching fraction ℬ(𝜓(2𝑆)→𝛾𝜂𝑐(2𝑆))×ℬ(𝜂𝑐(2𝑆)→𝜋+𝜋−𝜂𝑐) is determined to be 2.21×10−5 at the 90% confidence level. In addition, the 𝜂𝑐(2𝑆)→𝜋+𝜋−𝐾0𝑆𝐾±𝜋∓ decay is studied via 𝜓(2𝑆)→𝛾𝜂𝑐(2𝑆) and is observed with a statistical significance of 10𝜎 for the first time. The branching fraction of 𝜂𝑐(2𝑆)→𝜋+𝜋−𝐾0𝑆𝐾±𝜋∓ is determined to be (1.33±0.11±0.40±0.95)×10−2, where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second is systematic, and the third uncertainty is due to the quoted ℬ(𝜓(2𝑆)→𝛾𝜂𝑐(2𝑆)).
Based on (2712.4±14.1)×106 𝜓(3686) events collected with the BESIII detector, we study the decays ℎ𝑐→3(𝜋+𝜋−)𝜋0, ℎ𝑐→2(𝜋+𝜋−)𝜔, ℎ𝑐→2(𝜋+𝜋−)𝜋0𝜂, ℎ𝑐→2(𝜋+𝜋−)𝜂, and ℎ𝑐→𝑝¯𝑝 via 𝜓(3686)→𝜋0ℎ𝑐. The decay channel ℎ𝑐→3(𝜋+𝜋−)𝜋0 is observed for the first time, and its branching fraction is determined to be (9.28±1.14±0.77)×10−3, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. In addition, first evidence is found for the modes ℎ𝑐→2(𝜋+𝜋−)𝜋0𝜂 and ℎ𝑐→2(𝜋+𝜋−)𝜔 with significances of 4.8𝜎 and 4.7𝜎, and their branching fractions are determined to be (7.55±1.51±0.77)×10−3 and (4.00±0.86±0.35)×10−3, respectively. No significant signals of ℎ𝑐→2(𝜋+𝜋−)𝜂 and ℎ𝑐→𝑝¯𝑝 are observed, and the upper limits of the branching fractions of these decays are determined to be <6.19×10−4 and <4.40×10−5 at the 90% confidence level, respectively.
