Observation of a near-threshold enhancement in th p pbar mass spectrum from radiative J/psi-->gamma p pbar decays
We observe a narrow enhancement near 2mp in the invariant mass spectrum of
ppbar pairs from radiative J/psi-->gamma ppbar decays. The enhancement can be
fit with either an S- or P-wave Breit Wigner fuction. In the case of the S-wave
fit, the peak mass is below the 2mp threshold and the full width is less than
30 MeV. These mass and width values are not consistent with the properties of
any known meson resonance.Comment: 5 pages, 4 figures, submitted to Phys. Rev. Let

First Measurement of the Branching Fraction of the Decay psi(2S) --> tau tau
The branching fraction of the psi(2S) decay into tau pair has been measured
for the first time using the BES detector at the Beijing Electron-Positron
Collider. The result is ,
where the first error is statistical and the second is systematic. This value,
along with those for the branching fractions into e+e- and mu+mu of this
resonance, satisfy well the relation predicted by the sequential lepton
hypothesis. Combining all these values with the leptonic width of the resonance
the total width of the psi(2S) is determined to be keV.Comment: 9 pages, 2 figure
Measurements of and decays into and
Using 58 million and 14 million events collected by the
BESII detector at the BEPC, branching fractions or upper limits for the decays
and and are measured. For the isospin violating decays, the upper
limits are determined to be and at the 90% confidence level. The isospin
conserving process is observed for the
first time, and its branching fraction is measured to be , where the
first error is statistical and the second one is systematic. No signal is observed in decays, and is set at the 90%
confidence level. Branching fractions of decays into and are also reported, and the sum
of these branching fractions is determined to be .Comment: 7 pages, 10 figures. Phys.Rev.D comments considere

Measurement of \psip Radiative Decays
Using 14 million psi(2S) events accumulated at the BESII detector, we report
first measurements of branching fractions or upper limits for psi(2S) decays

Observation of a near-threshold enhancement in the \omega\phi mass spectrum from the doubly OZI suppressed decay J/\psi \to \gamma \omega \phi
An enhancement near threshold is observed in the \omega \phi invariant mass
spectrum from the doubly OZI suppressed decays of J/\psi \to \gamma \omega
\phi, based on a sample of 5.8 X 10^7 J/\psi events collected with the BESII
detector. A partial wave analysis shows that this enhancement favors J^P = 0^+,
and its mass and width are M = 1812^{+19}_{-26} (stat) +- 18 (syst) MeV/c^2 and
\Gamma = 105+-20 (stat) +- 28 (syst)) X 10^{-4}.Comment: Accepted by PRL, the version to be appeared in PR

possible intermediate states, is measured to be

performed. Assuming the quantum numbers of the to be , its
significance is found to be 4.4, with a mass and width of MeV/ and MeV, respectively, and a
product branching fraction

significance is 3.8, with a mass and width of MeV/ and MeV, respectively, and a product
branching fraction
