Observation and study of the decay
We report the observation and study of the decay

collected with the BESIII detector. Its branching fraction, including all
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
. Alternatively, assuming , the
significance is 3.8, with a mass and width of MeV/ and MeV, respectively, and a product
branching fraction

measurements the first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic.Comment: 10 pages, 6 figures and 4 table

Observation of and confirmation of its large branching fraction
The baryonic decay is observed, and the
corresponding branching fraction is measured to be

and second systematic. The data sample used in this analysis was collected with
the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII double-ring collider with
a center-of-mass energy of 4.178~GeV and an integrated luminosity of
3.19~fb. The result confirms the previous measurement by the CLEO
Collaboration and is of greatly improved precision, which may deepen our
understanding of the dynamical enhancement of the W-annihilation topology in
the charmed meson decays
First observations of hadrons

and the corresponding upper limits of the branching fractions are determined to
be and at 90% confidence level.Comment: 17 pages, 16 figure

Search for an axion-like particle in radiative decays
We search for an axion-like particle (ALP) through the process
, ,

events collected by the BESIII detector. No significant ALP signal
is observed over the expected background, and the upper limits on the branching
fraction of the decay and the ALP-photon coupling
constant are set at the 95\% confidence level in the mass
range of 0.165\leq m_a\leq2.84\,\mbox{GeV}/c^2. The limits on

ALP-photon coupling are the most stringent to date for 0.165\leq
m_a\leq1.468\,\mbox{GeV}/c^2.Comment: 10 pages, 5 figure
