Measurements of the observed cross sections for exclusive light hadron production in e^+e^- annihilation at \sqrt{s}= 3.773 and 3.650 GeV
By analyzing the data sets of 17.3 pb taken at GeV
and 6.5 pb taken at GeV with the BESII detector at the
BEPC collider, we have measured the observed cross sections for 12 exclusive
light hadron final states produced in annihilation at the two energy
points. We have also set the upper limits on the observed cross sections and
the branching fractions for decay to these final states at 90%

Search for the Rare Decays J/Psi --> Ds- e+ nu_e, J/Psi --> D- e+ nu_e, and J/Psi --> D0bar e+ e-
We report on a search for the decays J/Psi --> Ds- e+ nu_e + c.c., J/Psi -->
D- e+ nu_e + c.c., and J/Psi --> D0bar e+ e- + c.c. in a sample of 5.8 * 10^7
J/Psi events collected with the BESII detector at the BEPC. No excess of signal

branching fractions are set: B(J/Psi --> Ds- e+ nu_e + c.c.)<4.8*10^-5, B(J/Psi
--> D- e+ nu_e + c.c.) D0bar e+ e- + c.c.)<1.1*10^-5Comment: 10 pages, 4 figure
Measurements of psi(2S) decays to octet baryon-antibaryon pairs
With a sample of 14 million psi(2S) events collected by the BESII detector at
the Beijing Electron Positron Collider (BEPC), the decay channels psi(2S)->p
p-bar, Lambda Lambda-bar, Sigma0 Sigma0-bar, Xi Xi-bar are measured, and their
branching ratios are determined to be (3.36+-0.09+-0.24)*10E-4,
(3.39+-0.20+-0.32)*10E-4, (2.35+-0.36+-0.32)*10E-4, (3.03+-0.40+-0.32)*10E-4,
respectively. In the decay psi(2S)->p p-bar, the angular distribution parameter
alpha is determined to be 0.82+-0.17+-0.04.Comment: 8 pages, 8 figure
Anomalous Line-Shape of Cross Sections for in the Center-of-Mass Energy Region between 3.650 and 3.872 GeV
We observe an obvious anomalous line-shape of the total cross sections in the energy region between 3.700 and 3.872 GeV from the data samples taken with the BES-II detector at the BEPC Collider. Re-analysis of the data shows that it is inconsistent with the explanation for only one simple resonance with a statistical significance of . The anomalous line-shape may be explained by two possible enhancements of the inclusive hadron production near the center-of-mass energies of 3.764 GeV and 3.779 GeV, indicating that either there is likely a new structure in addition to the resonance around 3.773 GeV, or there are some physics effects reflecting the production dynamics
Direct measurement of the absolute branching fraction for and determination of
The absolute branching fraction for the decay is determined using singly tagged
sample from the data collected around 3.773 GeV with the BESII detector at the
BEPC collider. In the system recoiling against the singly tagged mesons,

First observation of J/\psi and \psi(2S) decaying to n K^0_S\bar\Lambda +c.c
The decays of \jpsi and \psip to are
observed and measured for the first time, and the perturbative QCD ``12%'' rule
is tested, based on \jpsi and \psip
events collected with BESII detector at the Beijing Electron-Positron Collider.
No obvious enhancement near threshold in \jpsi \to
{n}{K^0_S}\bar{\Lambda}+c.c. is observed, and the upper limit on the branching
ratio of \jpsi \to {K^0_S} X, X \to n \bar \Lambda is determined.Comment: 10 pages, 10 figure
Measurement of \chi_cJ--> K+K-K+K-
Using 14M psi(2S) events taken with the BES-II detector, chi_cJ-->K+K-K+K-
decays are studied. For the four-kaon final state, the branching fractions are
B(chi_c0,1,2 -->K+K-K+K-)=(3.48\pm 0.23\pm 0.47)\times 10^{-3}, (0.70\pm
0.13\pm 0.10)\times 10^{-3}, and (2.17\pm 0.20\pm 0.31)\times 10^{-3}. For the
\phi K+K- final state, the branching fractions, which are measured for the
first time, are B(chi_c0,1,2-->\phi K+K-)=(1.03\pm 0.22\pm 0.15)\times 10^{-3},
(0.46\pm 0.16\pm 0.06)\times 10^{-3}, and (1.67\pm 0.26\pm 0.24)\times 10^{-4}.
For the \phi\phi final state, B(chi_{c0,2}-->\phi\phi)=(0.94\pm 0.21\pm
0.13)\times 10^{-3} and (1.70\pm 0.30\pm 0.25)\times 10^{-3}.Comment: 7 pages, 7 figure
Partial wave analyses of J/psi to gamma pi^+ pi^- and gamma pi^0 pi^0
Results are presented on J/psi radiative decays to pi^+pi^- and pi^0pi^0
based on a sample of 58M J/psi events taken with the BESII detector. Partial
wave analyses are carried out using the relativistic covariant tensor amplitude
method in the 1.0 to 2.3 GeV/c^2 pipi mass range. There are conspicuous peaks
due to the f_2(1270) and two 0^++ states in the 1.45 and 1.75 GeV/c^2 mass
regions. The first 0^++ state has a mass of 1466\pm 6\pm 20 MeV/c^2, a width of
108^{+14}_{-11}\pm 25 MeV/c^2, and a branching fraction B(J/psi \to \gamma
f_0(1500) \to\gamma \pi^+\pi^-) = (0.67\pm0.02\pm0.30) \times 10^{-4}. Spin 0
is strongly preferred over spin 2. The second 0^++ state peaks at
1765^{+4}_{-3}\pm 13 MeV/c^2 with a width of 145\pm8\pm69 MeV/c^2. If this 0^++
is interpreted as coming from f_0(1710), the ratio of its branching fractions
to pipi and K\bar K is 0.41^{+0.11}_{-0.17}.Comment: 9 pages, 6 figure
