Partial Wave Analysis of J/ψ→γ(K+K−π+π−)J/\psi \to \gamma (K^+K^-\pi^+\pi^-)

BES data on $J/\psi \to \gamma (K^+K^-\pi^+\pi^-)$ are presented. The $K^*\bar K^*$ contribution peaks strongly near threshold. It is fitted with a broad $0^{-+}$ resonance with mass $M = 1800 \pm 100$ MeV, width $\Gamma = 500 \pm 200$ MeV. A broad $2^{++}$ resonance peaking at 2020 MeV is also required with width $\sim 500$ MeV. There is further evidence for a $2^{-+}$ component peaking at 2.55 GeV. The non-$K^*\bar K^*$ contribution is close to phase space; it peaks at 2.6 GeV and is very different from $K^{*}\bar{K^{*}}$.Comment: 15 pages, 6 figures, 1 table, Submitted to PL

A Measurement of Psi(2S) Resonance Parameters

Cross sections for e+e- to hadons, pi+pi- J/Psi, and mu+mu- have been measured in the vicinity of the Psi(2S) resonance using the BESII detector operated at the BEPC. The Psi(2S) total width; partial widths to hadrons, pi+pi- J/Psi, muons; and corresponding branching fractions have been determined to be Gamma(total)= (264+-27) keV; Gamma(hadron)= (258+-26) keV, Gamma(mu)= (2.44+-0.21) keV, and Gamma(pi+pi- J/Psi)= (85+-8.7) keV; and Br(hadron)= (97.79+-0.15)%, Br(pi+pi- J/Psi)= (32+-1.4)%, Br(mu)= (0.93+-0.08)%, respectively.Comment: 8 pages, 6 figure

Measurements of the Mass and Full-Width of the ηc\eta_c Meson

In a sample of 58 million $J/\psi$ events collected with the BES II detector, the process J/$\psi\to\gamma\eta_c$ is observed in five different decay channels: $\gamma K^+K^-\pi^+\pi^-$, $\gamma\pi^+\pi^-\pi^+\pi^-$, $\gamma K^\pm K^0_S \pi^\mp$ (with $K^0_S\to\pi^+\pi^-$), $\gamma \phi\phi$ (with $\phi\to K^+K^-$) and $\gamma p\bar{p}$. From a combined fit of all five channels, we determine the mass and full-width of $\eta_c$ to be $m_{\eta_c}=2977.5\pm1.0 ({stat.})\pm1.2 ({syst.})$ MeV/$c^2$ and $\Gamma_{\eta_c} = 17.0\pm3.7 ({stat.})\pm7.4 ({syst.})$ MeV/$c^2$.Comment: 9 pages, 2 figures and 4 table.

Measurement of Branching Ratios for ηc\eta_c Hadronic Decays

In a sample of 58 million $J/\psi$ events collected with the BES II detector, the process J/$\psi\to\gamma\eta_c$ is observed in five decay channels: $\eta_c \to K^+K^-\pi^+\pi^-$, $\pi^+\pi^-\pi^+\pi^-$, $K^\pm K^0_S \pi^\mp$ (with $K^0_S\to\pi^+\pi^-$), $\phi\phi$ (with $\phi\to K^+K^-$) and $p\bar{p}$. From these signals, we determine $Br(J/\psi\to\gamma\eta_c)\times Br(\eta_c\to K^+K^-\pi^+\pi^-)$ $=(1.5\pm0.2\pm0.2)\times10^{-4}$, $Br(J/\psi\to\gamma\eta_c)\times Br(\eta_c\to \pi^+\pi^-\pi^+\pi^-)$ $=(1.3\pm0.2\pm0.4)\times10^{-4}$, $Br(J/\psi\to\gamma\eta_c)\times Br(\eta_c\to K^\pm K_{S}^{0}\pi^\mp)$ $=(2.2\pm0.3\pm0.5)\times10^{-4}$, $Br(J/\psi\to\gamma\eta_c)\times Br(\eta_c\to \phi\phi)$ $=(3.3\pm0.6\pm0.6)\times10^{-5}$ and $Br(J/\psi\to\gamma\eta_c)\times Br(\eta_c\to p\bar{p})$ $=(1.9\pm0.3\pm0.3)\times10^{-5}$.Comment: 8 pages, 1 figures and 4 table.

Evidence of psi(3770) non-DD-bar Decay to J/psi pi+pi-

Evidence of $\psi(3770)$ decays to a non-${D \bar D}$ final state is observed. A total of $11.8 \pm 4.8 \pm 1.3$ \psi(3770) \to \PPJP events are obtained from a data sample of 27.7 $\rm {pb^{-1}}$ taken at center-of-mass energies around 3.773 GeV using the BES-II detector at the BEPC. The branching fraction is determined to be BF(\psi(3770) \to \PPJP)=(0.34\pm 0.14 \pm 0.09)%, corresponding to the partial width of \Gamma(\psi(3770) \to \PPJP) = (80 \pm 33 \pm 23) keV.Comment: 8 pages, 7 figures, Submitted to Physics Letters

Production of Υ(nS) mesons in Pb+Pb and pp collisions at 5.02 TeV

A measurement of the production of vector bottomonium states, Υ ( 1S ) , Υ ( 2S ) , and Υ ( 3S ) , in Pb + Pb and p p collisions at a center-of-mass energy per nucleon pair of 5.02 TeV is presented. The data correspond to integrated luminosities of 1.38 nb − 1 of Pb + Pb data collected in 2018, 0.44 nb − 1 of Pb + Pb data collected in 2015, and 0.26 fb − 1 of p p data collected in 2017 by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The measurements are performed in the dimuon decay channel for transverse momentum p μ μ T < 30 GeV , absolute rapidity | y μ μ | < 1.5 , and Pb + Pb event centrality 0–80%. The production rates of the three bottomonium states in Pb + Pb collisions are compared with those in p p collisions to extract the nuclear modification factors as functions of event centrality, p μ μ T , and | y μ μ | . In addition, the suppression of the excited states relative to the ground state is studied. The results are compared with theoretical model calculations

Fractal characteristics of pitting under cyclic loading

Specimens of A537cLl offshore structural steel were tested under cyclic loading and saltwater spray conditions. After the test, photographs were taken of the specimen surfaces where many pits were distributed randomly and then analyzed by using the slit island approach to determine their fractal dimensions. The result reported here reveals that the irregularity of the surfaces with many pits can be described very well by the fractal approach. Moreover, the fractal dimensions D f of the specimen surfaces increased with the increase in the number of cycles and the decrease in the residual life of those specimens
