Investigation of the $e^+e^- \to ωπ^0 \to π^0 π^0 γ$ reaction in the energy domain near the $ϕ$-meson

The $e^+e^- \to ωπ^0 \to π^0 π^0 γ$ process was investigated in the SND experiment at the VEPP-2M collider. A narrow energy interval near the $ϕ$-meson was scanned. The observed cross-section reveals, at the level of three standard deviation, the interference effect caused by $ϕ\to π^0π^0γ$ decay. The cross-section parameters, as well as the real and imaginary parts of the $ϕ$-meson related amplitude, were measured.

Measurement of the e+e- -> K+K- cross section in the energy range s**(1/2) = 1.04 - 1.38 GeV with the SND detector in the experiment at the VEPP-2M e+e- collider

The cross section of the process $e^+e^- \to K^+K^-$ was measured in the energy range $\sqrt{s}$ = 1.04--1.38 GeV in the SND experiment at the VEPP-2M $e^+e^-$ collider. The measured cross section is described by the model of vector meson dominance with contributions from the light vector mesons $ρ$, $ω$, $ϕ$ and their lowest excitations. The mean statistical accuracy of the measurement is 4.4 %, and the systematic uncertainty is 5.2 %.

Study of the process $e^+e^- \to π^+π^-$ in the energy region 400<\sqrt[]{s}<1000 MeV

The cross section of the process e^+e^-\to π^+π^- was measured in the SND experiment at the VEPP-2M collider in the energy region 400<\sqrt[]{s}<1000 MeV. This measurement was based on about 12.4 \times 10^6 selected collinear events, which include 7.4\times 10^6 e^+e^-\to e^+e^-, 4.5\times 10^6 e^+e^-\toπ^+π^- and 0.5\times 10^6 e^+e^-\toμ^+μ^- selected events. The systematic uncertainty of the cross section determination is 1.3 %. The ρ-meson parameters were determined: m_ρ=774.9\pm 0.4\pm 0.5 MeV, Γ_ρ=146.5\pm 0.8\pm 1.5 MeV, σ(ρ\toπ^+π^-)=1220\pm 7\pm 16 nb as well as the parameters of the G-parity suppressed decay ω\toπ^+π^-: σ(ω\toπ^+π^-)=29.9\pm 1.4\pm 1.0 nb and ϕ_{ρω} = 113.5\pm 1.3\pm 1.7 degree.

Study of the process $e^+e^- \to π^+π^-π^0$ in the energy region $\sqrt[]{s}$ below 0.98 GeV

The cross section of the process $e^+e^-\to π^+π^-π^0$ was measured in the Spherical Neutral Detector (SND) experiment at the VEPP-2M collider in the energy region $\sqrt[]{s}$ below 980 MeV. This measurement was based on about $1.2 \times 10^6$ selected events. The obtained cross section was analyzed together with the SND and DM2 data in the energy region $\sqrt[]{s}$ up to 2 GeV. The $ω$-meson parameters: $m_ω=782.79\pm 0.08\pm 0.09$ MeV, $Γ_ω=8.68\pm 0.04\pm 0.15$ MeV and $σ(ω\to 3π)=1615\pm 9\pm 57$ nb were obtained. It was found that the experimental data cannot be described by a sum of only $ω$, $ϕ$, $ω^\prime$ and $ω^{\prime\prime}$ resonances contributions. This can be interpreted as a manifestation of $ρ\to 3π$ decay, suppressed by $G$-parity, with relative probability $B(ρ\to 3π) = (1.01\pm^{0.54}_{0.36}\pm 0.034) \times 10^{-4}$.

Experimental Study of rho -> pi0 pi0 gamma and omega -> pi0 pi0 gamma Decays

The e+e- -> pi0 pi0 gamma process was studied in the SND experiment at VEPP-2M e+e- collider in the energy region 0.60-0.97 GeV. From the analysis of the energy dependence of measured cross section the branching ratios B(omega -> pi0 pi0 gamma)= (6.6 +1.4-0.8(stat) +-0.6(syst))x10^-5 and B(rho -> pi0 pi0 gamma)=(4.1 +1.0-0.9(stat) +-0.3(syst))x10^-5 were obtained.

Search for the radiative decay $η\to π^0 γγ$ in the SND experiment at VEPP-2M

The $η\to π^0 γγ$ decay was investigated by the SND detector at VEPP-2M $e^+e^-$ collider in the reaction $e^+e^-\toϕ\to ηγ$. Here we present the results and some details of this study. We report an upper limit (90% c.l.) $Br(η\to π^0 γγ)<8.4\times 10^{-4}$ as our final result. Our upper limit does not contradict the earlier measurement by GAMS spectrometer. To facilitate future studies a rather detailed review of the problem is also given.

The $ϕ(1020)\toπ^0π^0γ$ decay

In the SND experiment at VEPP-2M $e^+e^-$ collider the $ϕ(1020)\toπ^0π^0γ$ decay was studied and its branching ratio was measured: $B(ϕ\toπ^0π^0γ)=(1.221\pm 0.098\pm0.061)\cdot10^{-4}$. It was shown, that $f_0(980)γ$ intermediate state dominates in this decay and the $f_0(980)$-meson parameters were obtained.

The process $e^+e^-\toπ^+π^-π^0$ in the energy range 2E_0=1.04 - 1.38 GeV

In the experiment with the SND detector at VEPP-2M e^+e^- collider the process $e^+e^-\toπ^+π^-π^0$ was studied in the energy range 2E_0 from 1.04 to 1.38 GeV. A broad peak was observed with the visible mass $M_{vis}=1220\pm 20$ MeV and cross section in the maximum $σ_0\simeq 4$ nb. The peak can be interpreted as a $ω$-like resonance $ω(1200)$.

Upper limit on the Ks ---> 3 pi0 decay

The search for CP-violating K_S\to3π^0 decay was performed with SND detector at VEPP-2M e^+e^- collider. The total amount of data corresponding to 7 million produced K_S mesons was analyzed. No candidate events were found, giving an upper limit of the decay branching ratio: Br(K_S\to3π^0) < 1.4\cdot10^{-5} at 90% confidence level.

First Observation of PHI(1020)--->PI0+PI0+GAMMA Decay

In the SND experiment at the VEPP-2M electron-positron collider the PHI(1020)--->PI0+PI0+GAMMA decay was studied. The branching ratio B(PHI--->PI0+PI0+GAMMA)=(1.14+-0.10+-0.12)x10^{-4} was measured. It was shown, that the F0(980)GAMMA mechanism dominates in this decay and the 4-quark model of F0(980) describes our data most consistently.
