Using a dataset of 6.32 fb−1 of 𝑒+𝑒− annihilation data collected with the BESIII detector at center-of-mass energies between 4178 and 4226 MeV, we have measured the absolute branching fraction of the leptonic decay 𝐷+𝑠→𝜏+𝜈𝜏 via 𝜏+→𝑒+𝜈𝑒¯𝜈𝜏, and find ℬ𝐷+𝑠→𝜏+𝜈𝜏=(5.27±0.10±0.12)×10−2, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. The precision is improved by a factor of 2 compared to the previous best measurement. Combining with 𝑓𝐷+𝑠 from lattice quantum chromodynamics calculations or the |𝑉𝑐𝑠| from the CKMfitter group, we extract |𝑉𝑐𝑠|=0.978±0.009±0.012 and 𝑓𝐷+𝑠=(251.1±2.4±3.0) MeV, respectively. Combining our result with the world averages of ℬ𝐷+𝑠→𝜏+𝜈𝜏 and ℬ𝐷+𝑠→𝜇+𝜈𝜇, we obtain the ratio of the branching fractions ℬ𝐷+𝑠→𝜏+𝜈𝜏/ℬ𝐷+𝑠→𝜇+𝜈𝜇=9.72±0.37, which is consistent with the standard model prediction of lepton flavor universality.
We report on a comparison of two possible Λ+c spin hypotheses, J=12 and 32, via the process e+e−→Λ+cΛ¯−c, using the angular distributions of Λ+c decays into pK0S, Λπ+, Σ0π+, and Σ+π0. The data were recorded at s√=4.6 GeV with the BESIII detector and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 587 pb−1. The Λ+c spin is determined to be J=12, with this value favored over the 32 hypothesis with a significance corresponding to more than 6 Gaussian standard deviations.
The first amplitude analysis of the decay D+s→K−K+π+π0 is presented using the data samples, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 6.32 fb−1, collected with the BESIII detector at e+e− center-of-mass energies between 4.178 and 4.226 GeV. More than 3000 events selected with a purity of 97.5\% are used to perform the amplitude analysis, and nine components are found necessary to describe the data. Relative fractions and phases of the intermediate decays are determined. With the detection efficiency estimated by the results of the amplitude analysis, the branching fraction of D+s→K−K+π+π0 decay is measured to be (5.42±0.10stat.±0.17syst.)%.

Cross sections of the process 𝑒+𝑒−→𝜋0𝜋0𝐽/𝜓 at center-of-mass energies between 3.808 and 4.600 GeV are measured with high precision by using 12.4 fb−1 of data samples collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII collider facility. A fit to the measured energy-dependent cross sections confirms the existence of the charmoniumlike state 𝑌(4220). The mass and width of the 𝑌(4220) are determined to be (4220.4±2.4±2.3) MeV/𝑐2 and (46.2±4.7±2.1) MeV, respectively, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic. The mass and width are consistent with those measured in the process 𝑒+𝑒−→𝜋+𝜋−𝐽/𝜓. The neutral charmonium-like state 𝑍𝑐(3900)0 is observed prominently in the 𝜋0𝐽/𝜓 invariant-mass spectrum, and, for the first time, an amplitude analysis is performed to study its properties. The spin-parity of 𝑍𝑐(3900)0 is determined to be 𝐽𝑃=1+, and the pole position is (3893.1±2.2±3.0)−𝑖(22.2±2.6±7.0) MeV/𝑐2, which is consistent with previous studies of electrically charged 𝑍𝑐(3900)±. In addition, cross sections of 𝑒+𝑒− → 𝜋0𝑍𝑐(3900)0 → 𝜋0𝜋0𝐽/𝜓 are extracted, and the corresponding line shape is found to agree with that of the 𝑌(4220).
Using data taken at 23 center-of-mass energies between 4.0 and 4.6 GeV with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider and with a total integrated luminosity of approximately 15 fb−1, the process e+e−→2(pp¯) is studied for the first time. The Born cross sections for e+e−→2(pp¯) are measured, and no significant structure is observed in the lineshape. The baryon pair (pp and p¯p¯) invariant mass spectra are consistent with phase space, therefore no hexaquark or di-baryon state is found.
Based on an 𝑒+𝑒− collision data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.93 fb−1 collected with the BESIII detector at √𝑠=3.773 GeV, the first amplitude analysis of the singly Cabibbo-suppressed decay 𝐷+→𝐾+𝐾0𝑆𝜋0 is performed. From the amplitude analysis, the 𝐾*(892)+𝐾0𝑆 component is found to be dominant with a fraction of (57.1±2.6±4.2)%, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic. In combination with the absolute branching fraction ℬ(𝐷+→𝐾+𝐾0𝑆𝜋0) measured by BESIII, we obtain ℬ(𝐷+→𝐾*(892)+𝐾0𝑆)=(8.69±0.40±0.64±0.51)×10−3, where the third uncertainty is due to the branching fraction ℬ(𝐷+→𝐾+𝐾0𝑆𝜋0). The precision of this result is significantly improved compared to the previous measurement. This result also differs from most of theoretical predictions by about 4𝜎, which may help to improve the understanding of the dynamics behind.
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.
