Using 2.93 fb−1 of e+e− collision data collected with the BESIII detector at the center-of-mass energy of 3.773 GeV, we investigate the semileptonic decays D+→π+π−ℓ+νℓ (ℓ=e and μ). The D+→f0(500)μ+νμ decay is observed for the first time. By analyzing simultaneously the differential decay rates of D+→f0(500)μ+νμ and D+→f0(500)e+νe in different ℓ+νℓ four-momentum transfer intervals, the product of the relevant hadronic form factor ff0+(0) and the magnitude of the c→d Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix element |Vcd| is determined to be ff0+(0)|Vcd|=0.0787±0.0060stat±0.0033syst for the first time. With the input of |Vcd| from the global fit in the standard model, we determine ff0+(0)=0.350±0.027stat±0.015syst. The absolute branching fractions of D+→f0(500)(π+π−)μ+νμ and D+→ρ0(π+π−)μ+νμ are determined as (0.72±0.13stat±0.10syst)×10−3 and (1.64±0.13stat±0.11syst)×10−3. Combining these results with those of previous BESIII measurements on their semielectronic counterparts from the same data sample, we test lepton flavor universality by measuring the branching fraction ratios BD+→ρ0μ+νμ/BD+→ρ0e+νe = 0.88±0.10 and BD+→f0(500)μ+νμ/BD+→f0(500)e+νe = 1.14±0.28, which are compatible with the standard model expectation.

Using (2712.4±14.3)×106 ψ(3686) events collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII collider, we search for the hadronic transition hc→π+π−J/ψ via ψ(3686)→π0hc. No significant signal is observed. We set the most stringent upper limits to date on the branching fractions B(ψ(3686)→π0hc)×B(hc→π+π−J/ψ) and B(hc→π+π−J/ψ) at the 90% confidence level, which are determined to be 6.7×10−7 and 9.4×10−4, respectively.
Using data samples collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII storage ring, the cross section of the inclusive process e+e−→η+X, normalized by the total cross section of e+e−→hadrons, is measured at eight center-of-mass energy points from 2.0000 GeV to 3.6710 GeV. These are the first measurements with momentum dependence in this energy region. Our measurement shows a significant discrepancy from calculations with the existing fragmentation functions. To address this discrepancy, a new QCD analysis is performed at the next-to-next-to-leading order with hadron mass corrections and higher twist effects, which can explain both the established high-energy data and our measurements reasonably well.

Six C-even states, denoted as X, with quantum numbers JPC=0−+, 1±+, or 2±+, are searched for via the e+e−→γD±sD∗∓s process using (1667.39±8.84) pb−1 of e+e− collision data collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII storage ring at center-of-mass energy of s√=(4681.92±0.30) MeV. No statistically significant signal is observed in the mass range from 4.08 to 4.32 GeV/c2. The upper limits of σ[e+e−→γX]⋅B[X→D±sD∗∓s] at a 90% confidence level are determined.

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.
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.
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.
Six C-even states, denoted as X, with quantum numbers JPC=0−+, 1±+, or 2±+, are searched for via the e+e−→γD±sD∗∓s process using (1667.39±8.84) pb−1 of e+e− collision data collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII storage ring at center-of-mass energy of s√=(4681.92±0.30) MeV. No statistically significant signal is observed in the mass range from 4.08 to 4.32 GeV/c2. The upper limits of σ[e+e−→γX]⋅B[X→D±sD∗∓s] at a 90% confidence level are determined.
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.
Based on (27.12±0.14)×108 ψ(2S) events collected with the BESIII detector, we search for the decay ηc(2S)→π+π−ηc with ηc→K0SK±π∓ and ηc→K+K−π0. 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 analysis of the process ψ(2S)→γηc(2S),ηc(2S)→π+π−K0SK±π∓ gives a clear ηc(2S) signal with a statistical significance of 10σ for the first time, %The product branching fraction B(ψ(2S)→γηc(2S))×B(ηc(2S)→π+π−K0SKπ) is measured to be (9.31±0.72±2.77)×10−6, and and the branching fraction B(ηc(2S)→π+π−K0SK±π∓) is determined to be (1.33±0.11±0.4±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)).
The J/ψ,ψ(3686)→Σ0Σ¯0 processes and subsequent decays are studied using the world's largest J/ψ and ψ(3686) data samples collected with the BESIII detector. The strong-CP symmetry is tested in the decays of the Σ0 hyperons for the first time by measuring the decay parameters, αΣ0=−0.0017±0.0021±0.0018 and α¯Σ0=0.0021±0.0020±0.0022. The weak-CP test is performed in the subsequent decays of their daughter particles Λ and Λ¯. Also for the first time, the transverse polarizations of the Σ0 hyperons in J/ψ and ψ(3686) decays are observed with opposite directions, and the ratios between the S-wave and D-wave contributions of the J/ψ,ψ(3686)→Σ0Σ¯0 decays are obtained. These results are crucial to understand the decay dynamics of the charmonium states and the production mechanism of the Σ0−Σ¯0 pairs.
Based on (2712.4±14.3)×106 ψ(3686) events, we investigate four hadronic decay modes of the P-wave charmonium spin-singlet state hc(1P1)→h+h−π0/η (h=π or K) via the process ψ(3686)→π0hc at BESIII. The hc→π+π−π0 decay is observed with a significance of 9.6σ after taking into account systematic uncertainties. Evidences for hc→K+K−π0 and hc→K+K−η are found with significances of 3.5σ and 3.3σ, respectively, after considering the systematic uncertainties. The branching fractions of these decays are measured to be B(hc→π+π−π0)=(1.36±0.16±0.14)×10−3, B(hc→K+K−π0)=(3.26±0.84±0.36)×10−4, and B(hc→K+K−η)=(3.13±1.08±0.38)×10−4, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second are systematic. No significant signal of hc→π+π−η is found, and the upper limit of its decay branching fraction is determined to be B(hc→π+π−η)<4.0×10−4 at 90% confidence level.
Using 7.9 fb−1 of e+e− collision data collected at s√=3.773 GeV with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, we search for the massless dark photon with the flavor-changing neutral current processes D0→ωγ′ and D0→γγ′ for the first time. No significant signals are observed, and the upper limits at the 90% confidence level on the massless dark photon branching fraction are set to be 1.1×10−5 and 2.0×10−6 for D0→ωγ′ and D0→γγ′, respectively. These results provide the most stringent constraint on the new physics energy scale associated with cuγ′ coupling in the world, with the new physics energy scale related parameter |C|2+|C5|2<8.2×10−17 GeV−2 at the 90% confidence level.
The e+e−→D+sDs1(2536)− and e+e−→D+sD∗s2(2573)− processes are studied using data samples collected with the BESIII detector at center-of-mass energies from 4.530 to 4.946~GeV. The absolute branching fractions of Ds1(2536)−→D¯∗0K− and D∗s2(2573)−→D¯0K− are measured for the first time to be (35.9±4.8±3.5)% and (37.4±3.1±4.6)%, respectively. The measurements are in tension with predictions based on the assumption that the Ds1(2536) and D∗s2(2573) are dominated by a bare cs¯ component. The e+e−→D+sDs1(2536)− and e+e−→D+sD∗s2(2573)− cross sections are measured, and a resonant structure at around 4.6~GeV with a width of 50~MeV is observed for the first time with a statistical significance of 15σ in the e+e−→D+sD∗s2(2573)− process. It could be the Y(4626) found by the Belle collaboration in the D+sDs1(2536)− final state, since they have similar masses and widths. There is also evidence for a structure at around 4.75~GeV in both processes.
The branching fraction of D+→K0Sπ0e+νe is measured for the first time using 7.93 fb−1 of e+e− annihilation data collected at the center-of-mass energy s√=3.773~GeV with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII collider, and is determined to be B(D+→K0Sπ0e+νe) = (0.881 ± 0.017stat. ± 0.016syst.)\%. Based on an analysis of the D+→K0Sπ0e+νe decay dynamics, we observe the S-wave and P-wave components with fractions of fS-wave = (6.13 ± 0.27stat. ± 0.30syst.)% and fK¯∗(892)0 = (93.88 ± 0.27stat. ± 0.29syst.)\%, respectively. From these results, we obtain the branching fractions B(D+→(K0Sπ0)S-wave e+νe) = (5.41 ± 0.35stat. ± 0.37syst.)×10−4 and B(D+→K¯∗(892)0e+νe) = (4.97 ± 0.11stat. ± 0.12syst.)\%. In addition, the hadronic form-factor ratios of D+→K¯∗(892)0e+νe at q2=0, assuming a single-pole dominance parameterization, are determined to be rV=V(0)A1(0)=1.43 ± 0.07stat. ± 0.03syst. and r2=A2(0)A1(0)=0.72 ± 0.06stat. ± 0.02syst.
