    By analyzing the data sets of 17.3, 6.5 and 1.0 pb1^{-1} taken, respectively, at s=3.773\sqrt s= 3.773, 3.650 and 3.6648 GeV with the BES-II detector at the BEPC collider, we measure the observed cross sections for e+eπ+ππ0π0e^+e^-\to \pi^+\pi^-\pi^0\pi^0, K+Kπ0π0K^+K^-\pi^0\pi^0, 2(π+ππ0)2(\pi^+\pi^-\pi^0), K+Kπ+ππ0π0K^+K^-\pi^+\pi^-\pi^0\pi^0 and 3(π+π)π0π03(\pi^+\pi^-)\pi^0\pi^0 at the three energy points. Based on these cross sections we set the upper limits on the observed cross sections and the branching fractions for ψ(3770)\psi(3770) decay into these final states at 90% C.L..Comment: 7 pages, 2 figure

    Partial wave analysis of J/\psi \to \gamma \phi \phi

    Using 5.8×107J/ψ5.8 \times 10^7 J/\psi events collected in the BESII detector, the radiative decay J/ψγϕϕγK+KKS0KL0J/\psi \to \gamma \phi \phi \to \gamma K^+ K^- K^0_S K^0_L is studied. The ϕϕ\phi\phi invariant mass distribution exhibits a near-threshold enhancement that peaks around 2.24 GeV/c2c^{2}. A partial wave analysis shows that the structure is dominated by a 0+0^{-+} state (η(2225)\eta(2225)) with a mass of 2.240.02+0.030.02+0.032.24^{+0.03}_{-0.02}{}^{+0.03}_{-0.02} GeV/c2c^{2} and a width of 0.19±0.030.04+0.060.19 \pm 0.03^{+0.06}_{-0.04} GeV/c2c^{2}. The product branching fraction is: Br(J/ψγη(2225))Br(η(2225)ϕϕ)=(4.4±0.4±0.8)×104Br(J/\psi \to \gamma \eta(2225))\cdot Br(\eta(2225)\to \phi\phi) = (4.4 \pm 0.4 \pm 0.8)\times 10^{-4}.Comment: 11 pages, 4 figures. corrected proof for journa

    By analyzing about 33 pb1\rm pb^{-1} data sample collected at and around 3.773 GeV with the BES-II detector at the BEPC collider, we directly measure the branching fractions for the neutral and charged DD inclusive semimuonic decays to be BF(D0μ+X)=(6.8±1.5±0.7)BF(D^0 \to \mu^+ X) =(6.8\pm 1.5\pm 0.7)% and BF(D+μ+X)=(17.6±2.7±1.8)BF(D^+ \to \mu^+ X) =(17.6 \pm 2.7 \pm 1.8)%, and determine the ratio of the two branching fractions to be BF(D+μ+X)BF(D0μ+X)=2.59±0.70±0.25\frac{BF(D^+ \to \mu^+ X)}{BF(D^0 \to \mu^+ X)}=2.59\pm 0.70 \pm 0.25

    A study of charged kappa in J/ψK±Ksππ0J/\psi \to K^{\pm} K_s \pi^{\mp} \pi^0

    Full text link
    Based on 58×10658 \times 10^6 J/ψJ/\psi events collected by BESII, the decay J/ψK±Ksππ0J/\psi \to K^{\pm} K_s \pi^{\mp} \pi^0 is studied. In the invariant mass spectrum recoiling against the charged K(892)±K^*(892)^{\pm}, the charged κ\kappa particle is found as a low mass enhancement. If a Breit-Wigner function of constant width is used to parameterize the kappa, its pole locates at (849±7714+18)i(256±4022+46)(849 \pm 77 ^{+18}_{-14}) -i (256 \pm 40 ^{+46}_{-22}) MeV/c2c^2. Also in this channel, the decay J/ψK(892)+K(892)J/\psi \to K^*(892)^+ K^*(892)^- is observed for the first time. Its branching ratio is (1.00±0.190.32+0.11)×103(1.00 \pm 0.19 ^{+0.11}_{-0.32}) \times 10^{-3}.Comment: 14 pages, 4 figure

    Anomalous Line-Shape of Cross Sections for e+eHadronse^+e^- \to {\rm Hadrons} in the Center-of-Mass Energy Region between 3.650 and 3.872 GeV

    Get PDF
    We observe an obvious anomalous line-shape of the e+ehadronse^+e^- \to {\rm hadrons} 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 ψ(3770)\psi(3770) resonance with a statistical significance of 7σ7\sigma. 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 ψ(3770)\psi(3770) resonance around 3.773 GeV, or there are some physics effects reflecting the DDˉD\bar D production dynamics

    We report the first observation of \mPJpsi \to \mPeta\mPKst\mAPKst decay in a \mPJpsi sample of 58 million events collected with the BESII detector. The branching fraction is determined to be (1.15±0.13±0.22)×103(1.15 \pm 0.13 \pm 0.22)\times 10^{-3}. The selected signal event sample is further used to search for the \mPY resonance through \mPJpsi \to \mPeta \mPY, \mPY\to\mPKst\mAPKst. No evidence of a signal is seen. An upper limit of \mathrm{Br}(\mPJpsi \to \mPeta \mPY)\cdot\mathrm{Br}(\mPY\to\mPKst\mAPKst) < 2.52\times 10^{-4} is set at the 90% confidence level.Comment: 11 pages, 4 figure

    Direct measurement of the absolute branching fraction for D+Kˉ0μ+νμD^+ \to {\bar K}^0\mu^+\nu_\mu and determination of Γ(D0Kμ+νμ)/Γ(D+Kˉ0μ+νμ) \Gamma (D^0 \to K^-\mu^+\nu_\mu)/\Gamma (D^+ \to {\bar K}^0\mu^+\nu_\mu)

    The absolute branching fraction for the decay D+Kˉ0μ+νμD^+ \to {\bar K}^0\mu^+\nu_\mu is determined using 5321±149±1605321 \pm 149 \pm160 singly tagged DD^- 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 DD^- mesons, 28.7±6.428.7 \pm 6.4 events for D+Kˉ0μ+νμD^+ \to {\bar K}^0\mu^+\nu_\mu are observed. These yield the absolute branching fraction to be BF(D+Kˉ0μ+νμ)=(10.3±2.3±0.8)BF(D^+ \to {\bar K}^0\mu^+\nu_\mu) = (10.3\pm2.3\pm0.8)%. The ratio of the two partial widths for the decays D0Kμ+νμD^0 \to K^-\mu^+\nu_\mu and D+Kˉ0μ+νμD^+ \to {\bar K}^0\mu^+\nu_\mu is determined to be Γ(D0Kμ+νμ)/Γ(D+Kˉ0μ+νμ)=0.87±0.24±0.15\Gamma (D^0 \to K^-\mu^+\nu_\mu)/\Gamma (D^+ \to {\bar K}^0\mu^+\nu_\mu) = 0.87 \pm 0.24 \pm 0.15.Comment: 6 pages, 5 figure
