Measurement of cross section for $e^{+}e^{-}\rightarrow��^{0}\bar��^{0}$ near threshold
Using $e^+e^-$ collision data at ten center-of-mass energies between 2.644 and 3.080 GeV collected with the BESIII detector at BEPCII and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of about 500 pb$^{-1}$, we measure the cross sections and effective form factors for the process $e^{+}e^{-}\rightarrow��^{0}\bar��^{0}$ utilizing a single-tag method. A fit to the cross section of $e^{+}e^{-}\rightarrow��^{0}\bar��^{0}$ with a pQCD-driven power function is performed, from which no significant resonance or threshold enhancement is observed. In addition, the ratio of cross sections for the processes $e^{+}e^{-}\rightarrow��^{-}\bar��^{+}$ and $��^{0}\bar��^{0}$ is calculated using recent BESIII mea…
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.
Measurement of the doubly Cabibbo-suppressed decay $D^+\to K^+��^+��^-��^0$ with semileptonic tags
Using an $e^+e^-$ annihilation data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $2.93\,\rm fb^{-1}$ collected at a center-of-mass energy of 3.773 GeV with the BESIII detector, the doubly Cabibbo-suppressed decay $D^+\to K^+��^+��^-��^0$ is studied with a semileptonic tag method. After removing the decays containing narrow intermediate resonances, $D^+\to K^+��$, $D^+\to K^+��$, and $D^+\to K^+��$, the branching fraction for the decay $D^+\to K^+��^+��^-��^0$ is determined to be $(1.03 \pm 0.12_{\rm stat} \pm 0.06_{\rm syst})\times 10^{-3}$. The ratio of the branching fraction for $D^+\to K^+��^+��^-��^0$ to its Cabibbo-favored counterpart $D^+\to K^-��^+��^+��^0$ is measured to be $…
Amplitude analysis and branching-fraction measurement of \boldmath $D_{s}^{+} \to K^0_{S}��^{+}��^{0}$
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 $D_{s}^{+} \to K_{S}^{0}��^{+}��^{0}$ and determine the relative fractions and phase differences of different intermediate processes, which include $K_{S}^{0}��(770)^{+}$, $K_{S}^{0}��(1450)^{+}$, $K^{*}(892)^{0}��^{+}$, $K^{*}(892)^{+}��^{0}$, and $K^{*}(1410)^{0}��^{+}$. 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 branching fract…
Measurement of the absolute branching fractions for purely leptonic D+s decays
We report new measurements of the branching fraction $\cal B(D_s^+\to \ell^+\nu)$, where $\ell^+$ is either $\mu^+$ or $\tau^+(\to\pi^+\bar{\nu}_\tau)$, based on $6.32$ fb$^{-1}$ of electron-positron annihilation data collected by the BESIII experiment at six center-of-mass energy points between $4.178$ and $4.226$ GeV. Simultaneously floating the $D_s^+\to\mu^+\nu_\mu$ and $D_s^+\to\tau^+\nu_\tau$ components yields $\cal B(D_s^+\to \tau^+\nu_\tau) = (5.21\pm0.25\pm0.17)\times10^{-2}$, $\cal B(D_s^+\to \mu^+\nu_\mu) = (5.35\pm0.13\pm0.16)\times10^{-3}$, and the ratio of decay widths $R=\frac{\Gamma(D_s^+\to \tau^+\nu_\tau)}{\Gamma(D_s^+\to \mu^+\nu_\mu)} = 9.73^{+0.61}_{-0.58}\pm 0.36$, whe…
Measurement of the $e^{+}e^{-}\rightarrow����^{0}��^{0}$ cross section at center-of-mass energies from 2.0 to 3.08 GeV
The cross section of the process $e^{+}e^{-}\rightarrow����^{0}��^{0}$ is measured at nineteen center-of-mass energies from 2.0 to 3.08 GeV using data collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII storage ring. A resonant structure around 2.20 GeV is observed with significance larger than 5$��$. Using a coherent fit to the cross section line shape, the mass and width are determined to be $M=2223\pm16\pm11~{\rm MeV}/c^2$ and $\varGamma=51\pm29\pm21~{\rm MeV}$, respectively, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second ones are systematic.
Measurement of the absolute branching fraction of inclusive semielectronic $D_s^+$ decays
We measure the inclusive semielectronic decay branching fraction of the $D_s^+$ meson. A double-tag technique is applied to $e^+e^-$ annihilation data collected by the BESIII experiment at the BEPCII collider, operating in the center-of-mass energy range $4.178 - 4.230$ GeV. We select positrons from $D_s^+\rightarrow Xe^{+}\nu_e$ with momenta greater than 200 MeV/$c$, and determine the laboratory momentum spectrum, accounting for the effects of detector efficiency and resolution. The total positron yield and semielectronic branching fraction are determined by extrapolating this spectrum below the momentum cutoff. We measure the $D_s^+$ semielectronic branching fraction to be $\mathcal{B}\le…
