We search for the process e+e−→π+π−χcJ (J=0,1,2) and for a charged charmonium-like state in the π±χcJ subsystem. The search uses data sets collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII storage ring at center-of-mass energies between 4.18 GeV and 4.60 GeV. No significant π+π−χcJ signals are observed at any center-of-mass energy, and thus upper limits are provided which also serve as limits for a possible charmonium-like structure in the invariant π±χcJ mass.
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.

We present cross sections for the reaction e+e−→K0SK0L at center-of-mass energies ranging from 3.51 GeV to 4.95 GeV using data samples collected in the BESIII experiment, corresponding to a total integrated luminosity of 26.5 fb−1. The ratio of neutral-to-charged kaon form factors at large momentum transfers (12 GeV2<Q2<25 GeV2) is determined to be 0.21±0.01, which indicates a small but significant effect of flavor-SU(3) breaking in the kaon wave function, and consequently excludes the possibility that flavor-SU(3) breaking is the primary reason for the strong experimental violation of the pQCD prediction |F(π±)|/|F(K±)|=f2π/f2K, where F(π±) and F(K±) are the form factors, and fπ and fK are the decay constants of charged pions and kaons, respectively. We also observe a significant signal for the charmless decay ψ(3770)→K0SK0L for the first time. Within a 1σ contour of the likelihood value, the the branching fraction for ψ(3770)→K0SK0L is determined to be B=(2.63+1.40−1.59)×10−5, and the relative phase between the continuum and ψ(3770) amplitudes is ϕ=(−0.39+0.05−0.10)π. The branching fraction is in good agreement with the S- and D-wave charmonia mixing scheme proposed in the interpretation of the "ρπ puzzle" between J/ψ and ψ(3686) decays.
With a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 11.5~fb−1 collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII storage ring, for the first time the light hadron decay χc1(3872)→π+π−η is searched for. While no significant signal is observed, the upper limits at the 90\% confidence level for σ[e+e−→γχc1(3872)]B[χc1(3872)→π+π−η] at center-of-mass energies from 4.13 to 4.34 GeV are determined. By normalizing to the χc1(3872)→π+π−J/ψ decay channel, a 90\% confidence level upper limit for the branching fraction ratio R=B[χc1(3872)→π+π−η]/B[χc1(3872)→π+π−J/ψ]<0.12 is given. These measurements provide important inputs for understanding the internal structure of the χc1(3872) resonance.
A massless particle beyond the Standard Model is searched for in the two-body decay Σ+→p+invisible using (1.0087±0.0044)×1010 J/ψ events collected at a center-of-mass energy of s√=3.097 GeV with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider. No significant signal is observed, and the upper limit on the branching fraction B(Σ+→p+invisible) is determined to be 3.2×10−5 at the 90% confidence level. This is the first search for a flavor-changing neutral current process with missing energy in hyperon decays which plays an important role in constraining new physics models.

In selective autophagy, cargo recruitment is mediated by LC3-interacting regions (LIRs) / Atg8-interacting motifs (AIMs) in the cargo or cargo receptor proteins. The binding of these motifs to LC3/Atg8 proteins at the phagophore membrane is often modulated by post-translational modifications, especially phosphorylation. As a challenge for computational LIR predictions, sequences may contain the short canonical (W/F/Y)XX(L/I/V) motif without being functional. Conversely, LIRs may be formed by non-canonical but functional sequence motifs. AlphaFold2 has proven to be useful for LIR predictions, even if some LIRs are missed and proteins with thousands of residues reach the limits of computational feasibility. We present a fragment-based approach to address these limitations. We find that fragment length and phosphomimetic mutations modulate the interactions predicted by AlphaFold2. Systematic fragment screening for a range of target proteins yields structural models for interactions that AlphaFold2 and AlphaFold3 fail to predict for full-length targets. We provide guidance on fragment choice, sequence tuning, and LC3 isoform effects for optimal LIR screens. Finally, we also test the transferability of this general framework to SUMO-SIM interactions, another type of protein-protein interaction involving short linear motifs (SLiMs).
