Technical design report for the $\overline{{\rm{P}}}\mathrm{ANDA}$ Barrel DIRC detector
The $\overline{{\rm{P}}}\mathrm{ANDA}$ (anti-Proton ANnihiliation at DArmstadt) experiment will be one of the four flagship experiments at the new international accelerator complex FAIR (Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research) in Darmstadt, Germany. $\overline{{\rm{P}}}\mathrm{ANDA}$ will address fundamental questions of hadron physics and quantum chromodynamics using high-intensity cooled antiproton beams with momenta between 1.5 and 15 GeV/c and a design luminosity of up to 2 × 1032 cm−2 s−1. Excellent particle identification (PID) is crucial to the success of the $\overline{{\rm{P}}}\mathrm{ANDA}$ physics program. Hadronic PID in the barrel region of the target spectrometer will be per…
Study of $e^+e^- \rightarrow ��^{0}X(3872)��$ and search for $Z_c(4020)^{0}\rightarrow X(3872)��$
Using data samples collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII storage ring at center-of-mass energies from 4.178 to 4.600 GeV, we study the process $e^+e^-\rightarrow��^{0}X(3872)��$ and search for $Z_c(4020)^{0}\rightarrow X(3872)��$. We find no significant signal and set upper limits on $��(e^+e^-\rightarrow��^{0}X(3872)��)\cdot\mathcal{B}(X(3872)\rightarrow��^{+}��^{-}J/��)$ and $��(e^+e^-\rightarrow��^{0}Z_c(4020)^{0})\cdot\mathcal{B}(Z_c(4020)^{0}\rightarrow X(3872)��)\cdot\mathcal{B}(X(3872)\rightarrow��^{+}��^{-}J/��)$ for each energy point at $90\%$ confidence level, which is of the order of several tenths pb.
Amplitude analysis and branching-fraction measurement of \boldmath $D_{s}^{+} \to K^0_{S}\pi^{+}\pi^{0}$
Utilizing a data set corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 6.32~$\rm fb^{-1}$, recorded by the BESIII detector at center-of-mass energies between 4.178 and 4.226~GeV, we perform an amplitude analysis of the decay $D_{s}^{+} \to K_{S}^{0}\pi^{+}\pi^{0}$ and determine the relative fractions and phase differences of different intermediate processes, which include $K_{S}^{0}\rho(770)^{+}$, $K_{S}^{0}\rho(1450)^{+}$, $K^{*}(892)^{0}\pi^{+}$, $K^{*}(892)^{+}\pi^{0}$, and $K^{*}(1410)^{0}\pi^{+}$. Using a double-tag technique, and making an efficiency correction that relies on our knowledge of the phase-space distribution of the decays coming from the amplitude analysis, the absolute branch…

Two-particle transverse momentum correlations in pp and p-Pb collisions at energies available at the CERN Large Hadron Collider
Two-particle transverse momentum differential correlators, recently measured in Pb--Pb collisions at energies available at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC), provide an additional tool to gain insights into particle production mechanisms and infer transport properties, such as the ratio of shear viscosity to entropy density, of the medium created in Pb-Pb collisions. The longitudinal long-range correlations and the large azimuthal anisotropy measured at low transverse momenta in small collision systems, namely pp and p-Pb, at LHC energies resemble manifestations of collective behaviour. This suggests that locally equilibrated matter may be produced in these small collision systems, simil…
