Search for the decay J/ψ→γ+invisibleJ/\psi\to\gamma + \rm {invisible}

We search for $J/\psi$ radiative decays into a weakly interacting neutral particle, namely an invisible particle, using the $J/\psi$ produced through the process $\psi(3686)\to\pi^+\pi^-J/\psi$ in a data sample of $(448.1\pm2.9)\times 10^6$ $\psi(3686)$ decays collected by the BESIII detector at BEPCII. No significant signal is observed. Using a modified frequentist method, upper limits on the branching fractions are set under different assumptions of invisible particle masses up to 1.2 $\mathrm{\ Ge\kern -0.1em V}/c^2$. The upper limit corresponding to an invisible particle with zero mass is 7.0$\times 10^{-7}$ at the 90\% confidence level

Observation of a structure in e+e−→ϕη′e^+e^- \to \phi \eta^{\prime} at s\sqrt{s} from 2.05 to 3.08 GeV

The process $e^{+}e^{-} \to \phi \eta^{\prime}$ has been studied for the first time in detail using data sample collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider at center of mass energies from 2.05 to 3.08 GeV. A resonance with quantum numbers $J^{PC}=1^{--}$ is observed with mass $M$ = (2177.5 $\pm$ 4.8 (stat) $\pm$ 19.5 (syst)) MeV/${ \it{c}^{\mathrm{2}}}$ and width $\Gamma$ = (149.0 $\pm$ 15.6 (stat) $\pm$ 8.9 (syst)) MeV with a statistical significance larger than 10$\sigma$. The observed structure could be identified with the $\phi(2170)$, then the ratio of partial width between the $\phi \eta^{\prime}$ by BESIII and $\phi \eta$ by BABAR is ($\mathcal{B}^{R}_{\phi \eta}\Gamma^{R}_{ee})/{(\mathcal{B}^{R}_{\phi \eta^{\prime}}\Gamma^{R}_{ee})}$ = 0.23 $\pm$ 0.10 (stat) $\pm$ 0.18 (syst), which is smaller than the prediction of the $s\bar{s}g$ hybrid models by several orders of magnitude

Cross section measurement of e+e−→pp¯η and e+e−→pp¯ω at center-of-mass energies between 3.773 GeV and 4.6 GeV

Based on 14.7 fb-1 of e+e- annihilation data collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider at 17 different center-of-mass energies between 3.7730 GeV and 4.5995 GeV, Born cross sections of the two processes e+e-→pp¯η and e+e-→pp¯ω are measured for the first time. No indication of resonant production through a vector state V is observed, and upper limits on the Born cross sections of e+e-→V→pp¯η and e+e-→V→pp¯ω at the 90% confidence level are calculated for a large parameter space in resonance masses and widths. For the current world average parameters of the ψ(4230) of m=4.2187 GeV/c2 and Γ=44 MeV, we find upper limits on resonant production of the pp¯η and pp¯ω final states of 7.5 pb and 10.4 pb at the 90% CL, respectively

Search for New Hadronic Decays of hch_c and Observation of hc→K+K−π+π−π0h_c\rightarrow K^{+}K^{-}\pi^{+}\pi^{-}\pi^{0}

Ten hadronic final states of the $h_c$ decays are investigated via the process $\psi(3686)\rightarrow \pi^0 h_c$, using a data sample of $(448.1 \pm 2.9) \times 10^6$ $\psi(3686)$ events collected with the BESIII detector. The decay channel $h_c\rightarrow K^{+}K^{-}\pi^{+}\pi^{-}\pi^{0}$ is observed for the first time with a significance of $6.0 \sigma$. The corresponding branching fraction is determined to be $\mathcal{B}(h_c\rightarrow K^{+}K^{-}\pi^{+}\pi^{-}\pi^{0}) =(3.3 \pm 0.6 \pm 0.6)\times 10^{-3}$ (the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematical). Evidence for the decays $h_c\rightarrow \pi^{+} \pi^{-} \pi^{0} \eta$ and $h_c\rightarrow K^{0}_{S}K^{\pm}\pi^{\mp}\pi^{+}\pi^{-}$ is found with a significance of $3.6 \sigma$ and $3.8 \sigma$, respectively. The corresponding branching fractions (and upper limits) are obtained to be $\mathcal{B}(h_c\rightarrow \pi^{+} \pi^{-} \pi^{0} \eta ) =(7.2 \pm 1.8 \pm 1.3)\times 10^{-3}$ $(< 1.8 \times 10^{-2})$ and $\mathcal{B}(h_c\rightarrow K^{0}_{S}K^{\pm}\pi^{\mp}\pi^{+}\pi^{-}) =(2.8 \pm 0.9 \pm 0.5)\times 10^{-3}$ $(<4.7\times 10^{-3})$. Upper limits on the branching fractions for the final states $h_c \rightarrow K^{+}K^{-}\pi^{0}$, $K^{+}K^{-}\eta$, $K^{+}K^{-}\pi^{+}\pi^{-}\eta$, $2(K^{+}K^{-})\pi^{0}$, $K^{+}K^{-}\pi^{0}\eta$, $K^{0}_{S}K^{\pm}\pi^{\mp}$, and $p\bar{p}\pi^{0}\pi^{0}$ are determined at a confidence level of 90\%.Comment: 10 pages, 2 figure

Amplitude analysis and branching fraction measurement of D+s → K+K− π +

We report an amplitude analysis and branching fraction measurement of D+- s → K+K−π+- decay using a data sample of 3.19 fb−1 recorded with BESIII detector at a center-of-mass energy of 4.178 GeV. We perform a model-independent partial wave analysis in the low KþK− mass region to determine the K+K−S-wave line shape, followed by an amplitude analysis of our very pure high-statistics sample. With the detection efficiency based on the amplitude analysis results, the absolute branching fraction is measured to be B(D+ s → K+K−π+-) = (5.47 pm 0.08stat pm 0.13sys)

Measurements of the absolute branching fractions of D0(+)→KKˉππD^{0(+)}\to K\bar K\pi\pi decays

Based on 2.93~fb$^{-1}$ $e^+e^-$ collision data taken at center-of-mass energy of 3.773 GeV by the BESIII detector, we report the measurements of the absolute branching fractions of $D^0\to K^+K^-\pi^0\pi^0$, $D^0\to K^0_SK^0_S\pi^+\pi^-$, $D^0\to K^0_SK^-\pi^+\pi^0$, $D^0\to K^0_SK^+\pi^-\pi^0$, $D^+\to K^+K^-\pi^+\pi^0$, $D^+\to K^0_SK^+\pi^0\pi^0$, $D^+\to K^0_SK^-\pi^+\pi^+$, $D^+\to K^0_SK^+\pi^+\pi^-$, and $D^+\to K^0_SK^0_S\pi^+\pi^0$. The decays $D^0\to K^+K^-\pi^0\pi^0$, $D^0\to K^0_SK^-\pi^+\pi^0$, $D^0\to K^0_SK^+\pi^-\pi^0$, $D^+\to K^0_SK^0_S\pi^+\pi^0$, and $D^+\to K^0_SK^+\pi^0\pi^0$ are observed for the first time. The branching fractions of the decays $D^0\to K^0_SK^0_S\pi^+\pi^-$, $D^+\to K^+K^-\pi^+\pi^0$, $D^+\to K^0_SK^-\pi^+\pi^+$, and $D^+\to K^0_SK^+\pi^+\pi^-$ are measured with improved precision compared to the world-average values.Comment: 11 pages, 5 figure
