Observation of resonant contribution to the $e^+e^-\to Ω^{-}\barΩ^{+}$ around 4.2 GeV and evidence of $ψ(3770)\to Ω^{-}\barΩ^{+}$

Using $e^+e^-$ collision data corresponding to a total integrated luminosity of 22.7 fb$^{-1}$, collected at center-of-mass energies between 3.7 and 4.7 GeV with the BESIII detector, we present a measurement of energy-dependent cross sections and effective form factors for the process of $e^+e^-\to Ω^{-}\barΩ^+$. By conducting a fit to the cross sections of $e^+e^-\to Ω^{-}\barΩ^+$ considering the continuum and resonant contributions, a clear resonant structure in the spectrum around 4.2 GeV is observed for the first time with a statistical significance exceeding 10$σ$, and it can be well described with the line shape of the $Y(4230)$ and $Y(4320)$ observed in $e^+e^-\to π^{+}π^{-}J/ψ$. Evidence for the decay $ψ(3770) \to Ω^-\barΩ^{+}$ is observed with a statistical significance of 4.4$σ$ by analyzing the measured cross sections together with earlier BESIII results, and the branching fraction is firstly measured to be $(4.0\pm1.0\pm0.6)$ $\times$ $10^{-5}$, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic.

Measurement of the phase between strong and electromagnetic amplitudes in the decay $J/ψ\toϕη$

The first direct measurement of the relative phase between the strong and electromagnetic amplitudes for a $J/ψ$ decaying into a vector-pseudoscalar final state is performed using 26 energy points of $e^+e^-$ annihilation data between $3.00\ \text{GeV}$ and \mbox{3.12 GeV}. The data sets were collected by the BESIII detector with a total integrated luminosity of 452 pb$^{-1}$. By investigating the interference pattern in the cross section lineshape of $e^+e^-\toϕη$, the relative phase between the strong and electromagnetic amplitudes of $J/ψ$ decay is determined to be within $[133^\circ,228^\circ]$ at 68\% confidence level.

Measurement of the branching fractions of the Cabibbo-favored decays $Λ_{c}^{+}\toΛK_{S}^{0}K^{+}$ and $Λ_{c}^{+}\toΞ^{0}K_{S}^{0}π^{+}$ and search for $Λ_{c}^{+}\toΣ^{0} K_{S}^{0}K^{+}$

Based on $e^{+}e^{-}$ collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of about 4.5 fb$^{-1}$ collected at center-of-mass energies between 4599.53 MeV and 4698.82 MeV with the BESIII detector, the absolute branching fraction of the Cabibbo-favored decay $Λ_{c}^{+}\toΛK_{S}^{0}K^{+}$ is measured to be $(3.12\pm0.46\pm0.15)\times10^{-3}$. Combined with a previous measurement from the BESIII Collaboration, the branching fraction of the decay $Λ_{c}^{+}\toΛK_{S}^{0}K^{+}$ is calculated to be $(3.07\pm0.26\pm0.13)\times10^{-3}$. The decay $Λ_{c}^{+}\toΞ^{0}K_{S}^{0}π^{+}$ is observed for the first time with a statistical significance of $6.6σ$, and its branching fraction is determined to be $(3.70\pm0.60\pm0.21)\times10^{-3}$. In addition, a search for the decay $Λ_{c}^{+}\toΣ^{0} K_{S}^{0}K^{+}$ is performed and its branching fraction is determined to be $(0.80^{+0.28}_{-0.24}\pm0.16)\times10^{-3}$, corresponding to an upper limit of $1.28\times10^{-3}$ at $90\%$ confidence level. These measurements provide new information that can be used to distinguish between theoretical models.

Amplitude analysis of $ψ(3686)\to γK_S^0 K_S^0 $

Using $(2712\pm14)\times10^6$ $ψ(3686)$ events collected with the BESIII detector, we perform the first amplitude analysis of the radiative decay $ψ(3686)\to γK_S^0 K_S^0$ within the mass region $M_{K_S^0 K_S^0 }<2.8$ GeV/$c^2$. Employing a one-channel K-matrix approach for the description of the dynamics of the $K^0_S K^0_S$ system, the data sample is well described with four poles for the $f_0$-wave and three poles for the $f_2$-wave. The determined pole positions are consistent with those of well-established resonance states. The observed $f_0$ and $f_{2}$ states are found to be in agreement with those produced in radiative $J/ψ$ decays. The production behaviors of $f_0$ and $f_2$ poles in $ψ(3686)\toγK_S^0 K_S^0$ are qualified with their residues and the converted branching fractions. By comparing with $J/ψ\toγK_S^0 K_S^0$ decay, the ratios $\frac{\mathcal{B}(ψ(3686)\toγf_{0,2})}{\mathcal{B}(J/ψ\toγf_{0,2})}$ are determined, which provides crucial experimental inputs on the internal structure of the $f_{0,2}$ states, especially their potential mixing with glueball components.

First Measurement of the Decay Dynamics in the Semileptonic Transition of the $D^{+(0)}$ into the Axial-vector Meson $\bar K_1(1270)$

Using $e^+e^-$ data taken at the center-of-mass energy of 3.773 GeV with the BESIII detector, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 20.3 fb$^{-1}$, we report the first measurement of the decay dynamics of the semileptonic decays $D^{+(0)}\to K^-π^+π^{0(-)} e^+ν_e$. The amplitude analysis gives the hadronic form factors of the semileptonic $D$ transitions into the axial-vector meson $\bar{K}_1(1270)$ to be $r_A=(-11.2\pm1.0_{\rm stat}\pm0.9_{\rm syst})\times10^{-2}$ and $r_V = (-4.3\pm 1.0_{\rm stat}\pm2.5_{\rm syst})\times 10^{-2}$. This is the first in the semileptonic decays of heavy mesons into axial-vector mesons. The angular analysis yields an up-down asymmetry $\mathcal{A}^\prime_{ud} = 0.01\pm0.11$, which is consistent with the Standard Model prediction. In addition, the branching fractions of $D^+\to \bar K_1(1270)^0 e^+ν_e$ and $D^0\to K_1(1270)^- e^+ν_e$ are determined with improved precision to be $(2.27\pm0.11_{\rm stat}\pm0.07_{\rm syst}\pm0.07_{\rm input})\times10^{-3}$ and $(1.02\pm0.06_{\rm stat}\pm0.06_{\rm syst}\pm0.03_{\rm input})\times10^{-3}$, respectively. No significant signals of $D^+\to \bar K_1(1400)^0 e^+ν_e$ and $D^0\to K_1(1400)^- e^+ν_e$ are observed and their branching fraction upper limits are set as $1.4\times10^{-4}$ and $0.7\times10^{-4}$ at 90\% confidence level, respectively.

Observation of the electromagnetic radiative decays of the \boldmath{$Λ(1520)$} and \boldmath{$Λ(1670)$} to \boldmath{$γΣ^0$}

Using $(10087\pm 44)\times10^6$ $J/ψ$ events collected with the BESIII detector, we report the first observation of the electromagnetic radiative decays of the $Λ(1520)$ and $Λ(1670)$ to $γΣ^0$, with a statistical significance of $16.6σ$ and $23.5σ$, respectively. The ratio of the branching fractions $\frac{\mathcal{B}(Λ(1520)\toγΛ)}{\mathcal{B}(Λ(1520)\toγΣ^0)}$ is determined to be $2.88\pm0.27(\text{stat.})\pm0.21(\text{syst.})$, which is in good agreement with flavor SU(3) symmetry. The branching fraction of $Λ(1520)\toγΣ^0$ is measured to be $\mathcal{B}(Λ(1520)\toγΣ^0)=(2.95\pm0.28(\text{stat.})\pm0.56(\text{syst.}))\times 10^{-3}$, corresponding to a partial width of $Γ(Λ(1520)\toγΣ^0)=(47.2\pm4.5(\text{stat.})\pm9.0(\text{syst.}))$ keV, which is inconsistent with predictions from the relativized constituent quark model and the Algebraic model. Additionally, we observe a clear resonant structure in the $γΣ^0$ mass spectrum around 1.67 GeV/$c^2$, attributed to the $Λ(1670)$. The product branching fraction $\mathcal{B}(J/ψ\to\barΛΛ(1670)+c.c.)\times\mathcal{B}(Λ(1670)\toγΣ^0)$ is measured for the first time as $(5.39\pm0.29(\text{stat.})\pm 0.44(\text{syst.}))\times 10^{-6}$. However, no corresponding structure is seen in the $γΛ$ mass spectrum, so an upper limit on the product branching fraction $\mathcal{B}(J/ψ\to\barΛΛ(1670)+c.c.)\times\mathcal{B}(Λ(1670)\toγΛ)$ is determined to be $5.97\times10^{-7}$ at the 90\% confidence level.

The upper limit on the branching fraction of this decay is set to be $2.1 \times 10^{-9}$ at the 90$\%$ confidence level with a frequentist method.

Study of the light scalar $a_{0}(980)$ through the decay $D^{0} \to a_{0}(980)^-e^{+} ν_{e}$ with $a_{0}(980)^- \to ηπ^-$

Using 7.93 ${\rm fb^{-1}}$ of $e^+e^-$ collision data collected at a center-of-mass energy of 3.773 ${\rm GeV}$ with the BESIII detector, we present an analysis of the decay $D^{0} \to ηπ^- e^+ ν_{e}$. The branching fraction of the decay $D^{0} \to a_{0}(980)^{-} e^+ ν_{e}$ with $a_{0}(980)^{-} \to ηπ^{-}$ is measured to be $(0.86\pm0.17_{\text{stat}}\pm0.05_{\text{syst}})\times 10^{-4}$. The decay dynamics of this process is studied with a single-pole parameterization of the hadronic form factor and the Flatté formula describing the $a_0(980)$ line shape in the differential decay rate. The product of the form factor $f^{ a_0}_{+}(0)$ and the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix element $|V_{cd}|$ is determined for the first time with the result $f^{ a_0}_+(0)|V_{cd}|=0.126\pm0.013_{\rm stat}\pm0.003_{\rm syst}$.

Study of the electromagnetic Dalitz decay $J/ψ\to e^+e^- π^0$

We report the first measurement of the di-electron invariant mass dependent transition form factor in the electromagnetic Dalitz decay $J/ψ\to e^+e^- π^0$ using $(10087 \pm 44) \times 10^6$ $J/ψ$ events collected by the BESIII detector. A clear $ρ-ω$ interference structure is observed, consistent with the pion form factor, which offers a novel approach to extract the hadronic vacuum polarization contribution to the anomalous muon magnetic moment ($a_μ$) and refine the predictions of the Vector Meson Dominance (VMD) model and hadronic light-by-light contribution to $a_μ$. By taking into account the contribution of this $ρ-ω$ interference structure, the branching fraction of $J/ψ\to e^+e^- π^0$ in the full $e^+e^-$ invariant mass range is also measured for the first time to be $(8.06 \pm 0.31 (\rm{stat}) \pm 0.38 (\rm{syst}))\times 10^{-7}$, approximately twice the non-resonant VMD prediction.

Improved measurement of absolute branching fraction of the inclusive decay $Λ_{c}^{+} \to K_{S}^{0} X$

By analyzing $4.5$ fb$^{-1}$ of $e^{+}e^{-}$ collision data accumulated with the BESIII detector at center-of-mass energies ranging from $4599.53$ MeV to $4698.82$ MeV, we report the measurement of the absolute branching fraction (BF) of the inclusive decay $Λ_{c}^{+} \to K_{S}^{0} X$ using the double-tag technique. The result is $\mathcal{B}(Λ_{c}^{+} \to K_{S}^{0} X)=(10.9\pm0.2\pm0.1)\%$, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. This result indicates that there are still undiscovered decay channels containing $K_{S}^{0}$ in the final state with a combined BF of $(3.1\pm0.4)\%$. The BF of the inclusive decay $Λ_{c}^{+} \to \overline{K}^{0} / K^{0} X$ is calculated to be $\mathcal{B}(Λ_{c}^{+} \to \overline{K}^{0} / K^{0} X)=(21.8 \pm0.4 \pm0.2 \pm1.1)\%$, where the third uncertainty accounts for a possible difference between $\mathcal{B}(Λ_{c}^{+} \to K_{S}^{0} X)$ and $\mathcal{B}(Λ_{c}^{+} \to K_{L}^{0} X)$. The result is in agreement with the prediction of the statistical isospin model.

Measurement of the $η$ transition form factor through $η' \rightarrow π^+π^-η$ decay

Based on a sample of $(1.0087\pm0.0044)\times10^{10}$ $J/ψ$ events collected at BESIII, the transition form factor of the $η$ meson is extracted by analyzing $J/ψ\toγη',~η'\toπ^+π^-η,~η\toγl^+l^-$ ($l$=$e$, $μ$) events. The measured slope of the transition form factor is $Λ^{-2}=1.645\pm0.093_{\rm stat.}\pm {0.024_{\rm sys.}}$ (GeV/$c^2$)$^{-2}$ for the di-electron channel and $Λ^{-2}=1.645\pm0.343_{\rm stat.}\pm0.017_{\rm sys.}$ (GeV/$c^2$)$^{-2}$ for the di-muon channel. The branching fractions for $η\rightarrowγe^+e^-$ and $η\rightarrowγμ^+μ^-$ are measured to be $\mathcal{B}(η\toγe^+e^-)=(6.79\pm0.04_{\rm stat.}\pm0.36_{\rm sys.})\times 10^{-3}$ and $\mathcal{B}(η\toγμ^+μ^-)=(2.97\pm0.11_{\rm stat.}\pm0.07_{\rm sys.})\times 10^{-4}$. By combining with the results based on the $J/ψ\toγη,~η\toγe^+e^-$ events from the previous BESIII measurement, we determine $Λ^{-2}=1.707\pm0.076_{\rm stat.}\pm0.029_{\rm sys.}$ (GeV/$c^2$)$^{-2}$ and $\mathcal{B}(η\toγe^+e^-)=(6.93\pm0.28_{\rm tot.})\times 10^{-3}$. In addition, we search for the dark photon ($A'$) using the combined events. No significant signal is observed, and the upper limits on $\mathcal{B}(η\toγA',~A'\to e^+e^-)$ are set at 90\% confidence level for different $A'$ mass hypotheses.

First observation of quantum correlations in $e^+e^-\to XD\bar{D}$ and $C$-even constrained $D\bar{D}$ pairs

The study of meson pairs produced with quantum correlations gives direct access to parameters that are challenging to measure in other systems. In this Letter, the existence of quantum correlations due to charge-conjugation symmetry $C$ are demonstrated in $D\bar{D}$ pairs produced through the processes $e^+e^-\to D\bar{D}$, $e^+e^- \to D^{*}\bar{D}$, and $e^+e^- \to D^{*} \bar{D}^*$, where the lack of charge superscripts refers to an admixture of neutral-charm-meson particle and antiparticle states, using $7.13 \text{ fb}^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ collision data collected by the BESIII experiment between center-of-mass energies of $4.13-4.23 \text{ GeV}$. Processes with either $C$-even or $C$-odd constraints are identified and separated. A procedure is presented that harnesses the entangled production process to enable measurements of $D^0$-meson hadronic parameters. This study provides the first confirmation of quantum correlations in $e^+e^-\to X D\bar{D}$ processes and the first observation of a $C$-even constrained $D\bar{D}$ system. The procedure is applied to measure $δ^{D}_{Kπ}$, the strong phase between the $D^0\to K^-π^+$ and $\bar{D}^0\to K^-π^+$ decay amplitudes, which results in the determination of $δ^{D}_{Kπ}=\left(192.8^{+11.0 + 1.9}_{-12.4 -2.4}\right)^\circ$. The potential for measurements of other hadronic decay parameters and charm mixing with these and future datasets is also discussed.

A novel measurement of the strong-phase difference between $D^0\to K^-π^+$ and $\bar{D}^0\to K^-π^+$ decays using $C$-even and $C$-odd quantum-correlated $D\bar{D}$ pairs

A novel measurement technique of strong-phase differences between the decay amplitudes of $D^0$ and $\bar{D}^0$ mesons is introduced which exploits quantum-correlated $D\bar{D}$ pairs produced by $e^+e^-$ collisions at energies above the $ψ(3770)$ production threshold, where $D\bar{D}$ pairs are produced in both even and odd eigenstates of the charge-conjugation symmetry. Employing this technique, the first determination of a $D^0$-$\bar{D^0}$ relative strong phase is reported with such data samples. The strong-phase difference between $D^0\to K^-π^+$ and $\bar{D}^0\to K^-π^+$ decays, $δ^{D}_{Kπ}$, is measured to be $δ^{D}_{Kπ}=\left(192.8^{+11.0 + 1.9}_{-12.4 -2.4}\right)^\circ$, using a dataset corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 7.13 $\text{fb}^{-1}$ collected at center-of-mass energies between $4.13-4.23 \text{ GeV}$ by the BESIII experiment.

Search for $η_{1}(1855)$ in $χ_{cJ}\toηηη^{\prime}$ decays

Based on a sample of $2.7\times10^{9}$ $ψ(3686)$ events collected by the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII collider, an analysis of the decay $ψ(3686)\toγχ_{cJ}, χ_{cJ}\toηηη^{\prime}$ is performed. The decay modes $χ_{c1}$ and $χ_{c2}\toηηη^{\prime}$ are observed for the first time, and their corresponding branching fractions are determined to be $\mathcal{B}(χ_{c1}\toηηη^{\prime}) = (1.40\, \pm 0.13\, (\text{stat.}) \pm 0.09\, (\text{sys.})) \times 10^{-4}$ and $\mathcal{B}(χ_{c2}\toηηη^{\prime}) = (4.18\, \pm 0.84\, (\text{stat.}) \pm 0.48\, (\text{sys.})) \times 10^{-5}$. An upper limit on the branching fraction of $χ_{c0}\toηηη^{\prime}$ is set as $2.59 \times 10^{-5}$ at 90\% confidence level (CL). A partial wave analysis (PWA) of the decay $χ_{c1}\toηηη^{\prime}$ is performed to search for the $1^{-+}$ exotic state $η_1(1855)$. The PWA result indicates that the structure in the $ηη^{\prime}$ mass spectrum is mainly attributed to the $f_0(1500)$, while in the $ηη$ mass spectrum, it is primarily the $0^{++}$ phase space. The upper limit of $\mathcal{B}(χ_{c1}\toη_{1}(1855)η) \cdot \mathcal{B}(η_{1}(1855)\toηη^{\prime})< 9.79 \times 10^{-5}$ is set based on the PWA at 90\% CL.

We present the first amplitude analysis and branching fraction measurement of the decay $D^+_s\to π^+π^+π^-π^0π^0$, using $e^+e^-$ collision data collected with the BESIII detector at center-of-mass energies between 4.128 and 4.226 GeV corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 7.33 fb$^{-1}$, and report the first observation of the pure $W$-annihilation decay $D_s^+ \to ωρ^+$ with a branching fraction of $(0.99\pm0.08_{\rm stat}{\ ^{+0.05}_{-0.07}}_{\rm syst})\%$. %The absolute branching fraction is measured to be $(0.99\pm0.08_{\rm stat}\pm0.07_{\rm syst})\%$. In comparison to the low significance of the $\mathcal{D}$ wave in the decay $D_s^+ \to ϕρ^+$, the dominance of the $\mathcal{D}$ wave over the $\mathcal{S}$ and $\mathcal{P}$ waves, with a fraction of $(51.85\pm7.28_{\rm stat}{\ ^{+4.83}_{-7.90}}_{\rm syst})\%$ observed in the decay $D_s^+ \to ωρ^+$, provides crucial information for the``polarization puzzle", as well as for the understanding of charm meson decays. The branching fraction of $D^+_s\to π^+π^+π^-π^0π^0$ is measured to be ($4.41\pm0.15_{\rm stat}\pm0.13_{\rm syst}$)\%. Moreover, the branching fraction of $D_s^+ \to ϕρ^+$ is measured to be $(3.98\pm0.33_{\rm stat}{\ ^{+0.21}_{-0.19}}_{\rm syst})\%$, and the $R_ϕ= {\mathcal{B}(ϕ\toπ^+π^-π^0)}/{\mathcal{B}(ϕ\to K^+K^-)}$ is determined to be $(0.222\pm0.019_{\rm stat}{\ ^{+0.016}_{-0.016}}_{\rm syst}$), which is consistent with the previous measurement based on charm meson decays, but deviates from the results from $e^+e^-$ annihilation and $K$-$N$ scattering experiments by more than 3$σ$.

Test of local realism via entangled $Λ\barΛ$ system

The non-locality of quantum correlations is a fundamental feature of quantum theory. The Bell inequality serves as a benchmark for distinguishing between predictions made by quantum theory and local hidden variable theory (LHVT). Recent advancements in photon-entanglement experiments have addressed potential loopholes and have observed significant violations of variants of Bell inequality. However, examples of Bell inequalities violation in high energy physics are scarce. In this study, we utilize $(10.087\pm0.044)\times10^{9}$ $J/ψ$ events collected with the BES-III detector at the BEPCII collider, performing non-local correlation tests using the entangled hyperon pairs. The massive-entangled $Λ\barΛ$ systems are formed and decay through strong and weak interactions, respectively. Through measurements of the angular distribution of $p\bar{p}$ in $J/ψ\to γη_c$ and subsequent $η_c\toΛ(pπ^-)\barΛ(\bar{p}π^{+})$ cascade decays, a significant violation of LHVT predictions is observed. The exclusion of LHVT is found to be statistically significant at a level exceeding $5.2σ$ in the testing of three Bell-like inequalities.
