Study of the Decay D+s → π+π+π−η and Observation of the W-annihilation Decay D+s → a0(980)+ρ0

Measurement of the branching fraction of leptonic decay Ds+ →τ+ντ via τ+ →π+π0 ν ¯ τ

Search for the decay Ds+→a0(980)0e+νe

Using 6.32 fb−1 of electron-positron collision data recorded by the BESIII detector at center-of-mass energies between 4.178 and 4.226 GeV, we present the first search for the decay Ds+→a0(980)0e+νe, a0(980)0→π0η, which could proceed via a0(980)−f0(980) mixing. No significant signal is observed. An upper limit of 1.2×10−4 at the 90% confidence level is set on the product of the branching fractions of Ds+→a0(980)0e+νe and a0(980)0→π0η decays.
