Measurement of azimuthal asymmetries in inclusive charged dipion production in annihilations at = 3.65 GeV
We present a measurement of the azimuthal asymmetries of two charged pions in
the inclusive process based on a data set of 62
at the center-of-mass energy GeV collected with
the BESIII detector. These asymmetries can be attributed to the Collins
fragmentation function. We observe a nonzero asymmetry, which increases with
increasing pion momentum. As our energy scale is close to that of the existing
semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering experimental data, the measured
asymmetries are important inputs for the global analysis of extracting the
quark transversity distribution inside the nucleon and are valuable to explore
the energy evolution of the spin-dependent fragmentation function.Comment: 7 pages, 5 figure
Study of
We present an analysis of the decay based
on data collected by the BESIII experiment at the resonance. Using
a nearly background-free sample of 18262 events, we measure the branching
fraction . For GeV/ the partial branching fraction is
. A partial wave analysis shows that the dominant
component is accompanied by an \emph{S}-wave contribution accounting for
of the total rate and that other components are
negligible. The parameters of the resonance and of the
form factors based on the spectroscopic pole dominance predictions are also
measured. We also present a measurement of the helicity
basis form factors in a model-independent way.Comment: 17 pages, 6 figure
Measurements of absolute hadronic branching fractions of baryon
Using of collisions recorded at
with the BESIII detector, we report first measurements
of absolute hadronic branching fractions of Cabibbo-favored decays of the
baryon with a double-tag technique. A global least-square
fitter is utilized to improve the measured precision. Among the measurements
for twelve decay modes, the branching fraction for
is determined to be
, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the
second is systematic. In addition, the measurements of the branching fractions
of the other eleven Cabbibo-favored hadronic decay modes are significantly
improved
Measurement of the Cross Section between 600 and 900 MeV Using Initial State Radiation
We extract the cross section in the energy
range between 600 and 900 MeV, exploiting the method of initial state
radiation. A data set with an integrated luminosity of 2.93 fb taken at
a center-of-mass energy of 3.773 GeV with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII
collider is used. The cross section is measured with a systematic uncertainty
of 0.9%. We extract the pion form factor as well as the
contribution of the measured cross section to the leading order hadronic vacuum
polarization contribution to . We find this value to be

Precision measurement of the decay branching fractions
Using 482 pb of data taken at GeV, we measure the
branching fractions of the decays of into and
to be \BR(D^{*0} \to D^0\pi^0)=(65.5\pm 0.8\pm 0.5)% and \BR(D^{*0} \to
D^0\gamma)=(34.5\pm 0.8\pm 0.5)% respectively, by assuming that the
decays only into these two modes. The ratio of the two branching fractions is
\BR(D^{*0} \to D^0\pi^0)/\BR(D^{*0} \to D^0\gamma) =1.90\pm 0.07\pm 0.05,
which is independent of the assumption made above. The first uncertainties are
statistical and the second ones systematic. The precision is improved by a
factor of three compared to the present world average values
Search for C-parity violation in and
Using events recorded in
collisions at 3.686 GeV with the BESIII at the BEPCII collider, we
present searches for C-parity violation in and decays via . No significant
signals are observed in either channel. Upper limits on the branching fractions
are set to be and
at the 90\%
confidence level. The former is one order of magnitude more stringent than the
previous upper limit, and the latter represents the first limit on this decay
channel.Comment: 7 pages, 2 figure
Observation of near = 4.42 and 4.6 GeV
Based on data samples collected with the BESIII detector operating at the
BEPCII storage ring at center-of-mass energies 4.4 GeV, the
processes are observed for the first
time. With an integrated luminosity of near 4.42
GeV, a significant signal is found, and the cross section is
measured to be (20.9 \pm 3.2 \pm 2.5)\pb. With near 4.6 GeV, a clear signal is seen, and the cross section is
measured to be (9.5 \pm 2.1 \pm 1.3) \pb, while evidence is found for an
signal. The first errors are statistical and the second are
systematic. Due to low luminosity or low cross section at other energies, no
significant signals are observed. In the cross section, an
enhancement is seen around 4.42 GeV. Fitting the cross section
with a coherent sum of the Breit-Wigner function and a phase space
term, the branching fraction is
obtained to be of the order of .Comment: 7 pages, 3 figure
High-order harmonic generation from Rydberg states at fixed Keldysh parameter
Because the commonly adopted viewpoint that the Keldysh parameter
determines the dynamical regime in strong field physics has long been
demonstrated to be misleading, one can ask what happens as relevant physical
parameters, such as laser intensity and frequency, are varied while is
kept fixed. We present results from our one- and fully three-dimensional
quantum simulations of high-order harmonic generation (HHG) from various bound
states of hydrogen with up to 40, where the laser intensities and the
frequencies are scaled from those for in order to maintain a fixed
Keldysh parameter for all . We find that as we increase
while keeping fixed, the position of the cut-off scales in well
defined manner. Moreover, a secondary plateau forms with a new cut-off,
splitting the HHG plateau into two regions. First of these sub-plateaus is
composed of lower harmonics, and has a higher yield than the second one. The
latter extends up to the semiclassical cut-off. We find that this
structure is universal, and the HHG spectra look the same for all
when plotted as a function of the scaled harmonic order. We investigate the
-, - and momentum distributions to elucidate the physical mechanism
leading to this universal structure
Confirmation of a charged charmoniumlike state in with double tag
We present a study of the process
using data samples of 1092~pb at ~GeV and 826~pb
at ~GeV collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII storage
ring. With full reconstruction of the meson pair and the bachelor

structure in the system in the two
isospin processes and . By
performing a simultaneous fit, the statistical significance of
signal is determined to be greater than 10, and its pole mass and width
are measured to be
