Observation of a Near-Threshold Structure in the K+ Recoil-Mass Spectra in e+e−→K+(Ds−D*0+Ds*−D0)
2021
We report a study of the processes of e^{+}e^{-}→K^{+}D_{s}^{-}D^{*0} and K^{+}D_{s}^{*-}D^{0} based on e^{+}e^{-} annihilation samples collected with the BESIII detector operating at BEPCII at five center-of-mass energies ranging from 4.628 to 4.698 GeV with a total integrated luminosity of 3.7 fb^{-1}. An excess of events over the known contributions of the conventional charmed mesons is observed near the D_{s}^{-}D^{*0} and D_{s}^{*-}D^{0} mass thresholds in the K^{+} recoil-mass spectrum for events collected at sqrt[s]=4.681 GeV. The structure matches a mass-dependent-width Breit-Wigner line shape, whose pole mass and width are determined as (3982.5_{-2.6}^{+1.8}±2.1) MeV/c^{2} and (…

First Observation of D+→ημ+νμ and Measurement of Its Decay Dynamics
2020
By analyzing a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.93 fb^{-1} collected at a center-of-mass energy of 3.773 GeV with the BESIII detector, we measure for the first time the absolute branching fraction of the D^{+}→ημ^{+}ν_{μ} decay to be B_{D^{+}→ημ^{+}ν_{μ}}=(10.4±1.0_{stat}±0.5_{syst})×10^{-4}. Using the world averaged value of B_{D^{+}→ηe^{+}ν_{e}}, the ratio of the two branching fractions is determined to be B_{D^{+}→ημ^{+}ν_{μ}}/B_{D^{+}→ηe^{+}ν_{e}}=0.91±0.13_{(stat+syst)}, which agrees with the theoretical expectation of lepton flavor universality within uncertainty. By studying the differential decay rates in five four-momentum transfer intervals, we obtain th…

Direct Measurement of the Branching Fractions B(ψ(3686)→J/ψX) and B(ψ(3770)→J/ψX) , and Observation of the State R(3760) in e+e−→J/ψX
2021
We report a measurement of the observed cross sections of e + e - → J / ψ X based on 3.21 fb - 1 of data accumulated at energies from 3.645 to 3.891 GeV with the BESIII detector operated at the BEPCII collider. In analysis of the cross sections, we measured the decay branching fractions of B ( ψ ( 3686 ) → J / ψ X ) = ( 64.4 ± 0.6 ± 1.6 ) % and B ( ψ ( 3770 ) → J / ψ X ) = ( 0.5 ± 0.2 ± 0.1 ) % for the first time. The energy-dependent line shape of these cross sections cannot be well described by two Breit-Wigner (BW) amplitudes of the expected decays ψ ( 3686 ) → J / ψ X and ψ ( 3770 ) → J / ψ X . Instead, it can be better described with one more BW amplitude of the decay R ( 3760 ) → J / …
Model-Independent Determination of the Spin of the Ω− and Its Polarization Alignment in ψ(3686)→Ω−Ω¯+
2021
We present an analysis of the process $\psi(3686) \to \Omega^- \bar{\Omega}^+$ ($\Omega^-\to K^-\Lambda$, $\bar{\Omega}^+\to K^+\bar{\Lambda}$, $\Lambda\to p\pi^-$, $\bar{\Lambda}\to \bar{p}\pi^+$) based on a data set of $448\times 10^6$ $\psi(3686)$ decays collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII electron-positron collider. The helicity amplitudes for the process $\psi(3686) \to \Omega^- \bar{\Omega}^+$ and the decay parameters of the subsequent decay $\Omega^-\to K^-\Lambda$ $(\bar{\Omega}^+\to K^+\bar{\Lambda})$ are measured for the first time by a fit to the angular distribution of the complete decay chain. The branching fraction of $\psi(3686) \to \Omega^- \bar{\Omega}^+$ is me…
Observation of a resonant structure in e+e− → ωη and another in e+e− → ωπ0 at center-of-mass energies between 2.00 and 3.08 GeV
2021
Abstract Born cross sections for the processes e + e − → ω η and e + e − → ω π 0 have been determined for center-of-mass energies between 2.00 and 3.08 GeV with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider. The results obtained in this work are consistent with previous measurements but with improved precision. Two resonant structures are observed. In the e + e − → ω η cross sections, a resonance with a mass of ( 2176 ± 24 ± 3 ) MeV / c 2 and a width of ( 89 ± 50 ± 5 ) MeV is observed with a significance of 6.2σ. Its properties are consistent with the ϕ ( 2170 ) . In the e + e − → ω π 0 cross sections, a resonance denoted Y ( 2040 ) is observed with a significance of more than 10σ. Its mass an…

Amplitude analysis and branching fraction measurement of Ds+→K−K+π+π0
2021
We report an amplitude analysis and branching fraction measurement of Ds+→K+K−π+ decay using a data sample of 3.19 fb−1 recorded with BESIII detector at a center-of-mass energy of 4.178 GeV. We perform a model-independent partial wave analysis in the low K+K− mass region to determine the K+K− S-wave line shape, followed by an amplitude analysis of our very pure high-statistics sample. With the detection efficiency based on the amplitude analysis results, the absolute branching fraction is measured to be B(Ds+→K+K−π+)=(5.47±0.08stat±0.13sys)%.
Measurement of the absolute branching fraction of Λc+→pKS0η decays
2021
Abstract Based on 586 p b − 1 of e + e − annihilation data collected at a center-of-mass energy of s = 4.6 GeV with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, the absolute branching fraction of Λ c + → p K S 0 η decays is measured for the first time to be B ( Λ c + → p K S 0 η ) = ( 0.414 ± 0.084 ± 0.028 ) % , where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. The result is compatible with a previous CLEO result on the relative branching fraction B ( Λ c + → p K S 0 η ) B ( Λ c + → p K − π + ) , and consistent with theoretical predictions of SU(3) flavor symmetry.
Study of Open-Charm Decays and Radiative Transitions of the X(3872)
2020
The processes X(3872)→D*0D¯0+c.c.,γJ/ψ,γψ(2S), and γD+D− are searched for in a 9.0 fb−1 data sample collected at center-of-mass energies between 4.178 and 4.278 GeV with the BESIII detector. We observe X(3872)→D*0D0¯+c.c. and find evidence for X(3872)→γJ/ψ with statistical significances of 7.4σ and 3.5σ, respectively. No evident signals for X(3872)→γψ(2S) and γD+D− are found, and the upper limit on the relative branching ratio Rγψ≡{B[X(3872)→γψ(2S)]}/{B[X(3872)→γJ/ψ]}<0.59 is set at 90% confidence level. Measurements of branching ratios relative to decay X(3872)→π+π−J/ψ are also reported for decays X(3872)→D*0D0¯+c.c.,γψ(2S),γJ/ψ, and γD+D−, as well as the non-D*0D0¯ three-body decays π0…
