First measurements of the branching fractions for the decay modes $Ξ_c^{0} \to Λη$ and $Ξ_c^0 \to Λη'$ and search for the decay $Ξ_c^{0} \to Λπ^0$ using Belle and Belle II data

Using data samples of 988.4 fb$^{-1}$ and 427.9 fb$^{-1}$ collected with the Belle and Belle II detectors, we present a study of the singly Cabibbo-suppressed decays $Ξ_c^{0} \to Λη$, $Λη'$, and $Λπ^0$. We observe the decay $Ξ_c^0 \to Λη$ and find evidence for the decay $Ξ_c^0 \to Λη'$, with corresponding branching ratios determined to be ${\mathcal{B}(Ξ_c^0 \to Λη)}/{\mathcal{B}(Ξ_c^0 \to Ξ^- π^+)}= (4.16 \pm 0.91 \pm {0.23})\%$ and ${\mathcal{B}(Ξ_c^0 \to Λη')}/{\mathcal{B}(Ξ_c^0 \to Ξ^- π^+)}= (2.48 \pm 0.82 \pm {0.12})\%$, respectively. We find no significant signal in the $Ξ_c^0 \to Λπ^0$ decay mode and set an upper limit at the 90% credibility level of ${\mathcal{B}(Ξ_c^0 \to Λπ^0)}/{\mathcal{B}(Ξ_c^0 \to Ξ^- π^+)}< {3.5\%}$. Multiplying these ratios by the world-average branching fraction of the normalization channel, $\mathcal{B}(Ξ_c^0 \to Ξ^- π^+)=(1.43 \pm 0.27)\%$, we obtain the absolute branching fractions of $\mathcal{B}(Ξ_c^0 \to Λη)= (5.95 \pm 1.30 \pm {0.32} \pm 1.13) \times 10^{-4}$, $\mathcal{B}(Ξ_c^0 \to Λη')= (3.55 \pm 1.17 \pm {0.17} \pm 0.68) \times 10^{-4}$, and an upper limit at the 90% credibility level on the absolute branching fraction of $\mathcal{B}(Ξ_c^0 \to Λπ^0)< {5.2} \times 10^{-4}$. The quoted first and second uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively, while the third uncertainties arise from the branching fraction of the normalization mode. These results are consistent with most theoretical predictions and further the understanding of the underlying decay mechanisms.

Measurement of time-dependent $CP$ asymmetries in $B^0 \to K_{\rm S}^0 \: π^{+} π^{-} γ$ decays at Belle and Belle II

We present a measurement of the time-dependent $CP$ asymmetry in $B^0 \to K_{\rm S}^0 \: π^{+} π^{-} γ$ decays using a data set of 365 fb$^{-1}$ recorded by the Belle II experiment and the final data set of 711 fb$^{-1}$ recorded by the Belle experiment at the ${\rm Υ(4S)}$ resonance. The direct and mixing-induced time-dependent $CP$ violation parameters $C$ and $S$ are determined along with two additional quantities, $S^{+}$ and $S^{-}$, defined in the two halves of the $m^2(K_{\rm S}^0 π^{+})-m^2(K_{\rm S}^0 π^{-})$ plane. The measured values are $C = -0.17 \pm 0.09 \pm 0.04$, $S = -0.29 \pm 0.11 \pm 0.05$, $S^{+} = -0.57 \pm 0.23 \pm 0.10$ and $S^{-} = 0.31 \pm 0.24 \pm 0.05$, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic.

A search for feebly-interacting particles in $B$ decays with missing energy at Belle

We present a search for an invisible hidden-sector particle $ X_{\rm{inv}}$, produced in $B^0 \to \bar{D}^0 X_{\rm{inv}}$ and $B^\pm\to h X_{\rm{inv}}$ decays, where $h = π^\pm$, $K^\pm$, $D_{s}^\pm$, $p^\pm$. The search is performed using $e^+ e^-$ collision data recorded with the Belle detector, corresponding to 711~fb$^{-1}$. No significant signal is observed. We set 90\% confidence level upper limits ranging between $10^{-4}$ and $10^{-6}$ on the branching fraction $\mathcal{B}(B \to h X_{\rm{inv}})$ as a function of $m_{ X_{\rm{inv}}}$. Corresponding limits are set on $\mathcal{B}(B \to hX)\times\mathcal{B}(X\toγγ)$ for lifetimes $cτ_X$ between $10~μ$m and 10 m. Many of these limits are the first direct constraints on their respective decays. Our results provide the most stringent exclusion limits to date on the branching fractions for all search channels, and exclude previously unexplored regions of parameter space relevant to several new physics models.

Determination of $|V_{cb}|$ using $B\to D\ellν_\ell$ Decays at Belle II

We present a determination of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix element $|V_{cb}|$ from the decay $B\to D\ellν_\ell$ using a $365~\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ $e^+e^-\toΥ(4S)\to B\bar B$ data sample recorded by the Belle II experiment at the SuperKEKB collider. The semileptonic decay of one $B$ meson is reconstructed in the modes $B^0\to D^-(\to K^+π^-π^-)\ell^+ν_\ell$ and $B^+\to \bar D^0(\to K^+π^-)\ell^+ν_\ell$, where $\ell$ denotes either an electron or a muon. Charge conjugation is implied. The second $B$ meson in the $Υ(4S)$ event is not reconstructed explicitly. Using an inclusive reconstruction of the unobserved neutrino momentum, we determine the recoil variable $w=v_B\cdot v_D$, where $v_B$ and $v_D$ are the 4-velocities of the $B$ and $D$ mesons. We measure the total decay branching fractions to be $\mathcal{B}(B^0\to D^-\ell^+ν_\ell)=(2.06 \pm 0.05\,(\mathrm{stat.}) \pm 0.10\,(\mathrm{sys.}))\%$ and $\mathcal{B}(B^+\to\bar D^0\ell^+ν_\ell)=(2.31 \pm 0.04\,(\mathrm{stat.}) \pm 0.09\,(\mathrm{sys.}))\%$. We probe lepton flavor universality by measuring $\mathcal{B}(B\to Deν_e)/\mathcal{B}(B\to Dμν_μ)=1.020 \pm 0.020\,(\mathrm{stat.})\pm 0.022\,(\mathrm{sys.})$. Fitting the partial decay branching fraction as a function of $w$ and using the average of lattice QCD calculations of the $B\to D$ form factor, we obtain $ |V_{cb}|=(39.2\pm 0.4\,(\mathrm{stat.}) \pm 0.6\,(\mathrm{sys.}) \pm 0.5\,(\mathrm{th.})) \times 10^{-3}$.

Observation of $e^+e^-\toηΥ(2S)$ and search for $e^+e^-\toηΥ(1S),~γX_b$ at $\sqrt{s}$ near 10.75 GeV

We present an analysis of the processes $e^{+}e^{-}\toηΥ(1S)$, $ηΥ(2S)$, and $γX_b$ with $X_b\toπ^+π^-χ_{bJ},~χ_{bJ}\toγΥ(1S)$ $(J=1,~2)$ reconstructed from $γγπ^+π^-\ell^+\ell^-~(\ell=e,~μ)$ final states in $19.6\rm~\rm fb^{-1}$ of Belle II data collected at four energy points near the peak of the $Υ(10753)$ resonance. Here, $X_b$ is a hypothetical bottomonium-sector partner of the $X(3872)$. In the process $e^{+}e^{-} \to ηΥ(2S)$, we observe a signal with a significance that exceeds $6.0σ$. Based on an analysis of the Born cross-section, the hypothesis that these events are associated solely with the production of the $Υ(5S)$ or $Υ(10753)$ resonances is rejected at the level of 3.6$σ$. This suggests that the observed events are more likely to arise from a new state near the $B^{*}\bar{B}^{*}$ threshold or from a substantial continuum production. No significant signal is observed for $e^{+}e^{-}\toηΥ(1S)$ or $γX_b$. Upper limits on the Born cross sections for the processes $e^{+}e^{-}\toηΥ(1S)$ and $e^{+}e^{-}\toγX_b$ with $X_b\toπ^+π^-χ_{bJ}$ are determined.

Rotating twisted magnetosphere of magnetars: approximate analytical solutions

An approximate analytical solution for the rotating twisted magnetosphere of magnetars is presented. The poloidal flux is approximated by the self-similar twisted dipole field. The toroidal field is obtained by the minimum torque model. Under this approximation, it is found that: (1) The Y-point radius decreases with the increase of twist of the magnetic field. (2) The polar cap is larger for larger twist. (3) The particle outflow luminosity is larger for larger twist. (4) The maximum acceleration potential, pulse width of magnetar radio emission both increase with the twist. (5) For an untwisting magnetosphere, the physical properties evolve toward that of the normal pulsars. The above findings are consistent with previous analytical and numerical results. The larger polar cap may correspond to the hot spot during magnetar outburst. In general, a rotating twisted magnetosphere has larger open field line regions. The radio emission of magnetars and fast radio bursts may both originate in the larger and evolving open field line regions of magnetars.

Model-agnostic likelihood for the reinterpretation of the $B^+\to K^+ν\barν$ measurement at Belle II

We recently measured the branching fraction of the $B^{+}\rightarrow K^{+}ν\barν$ decay using 362fb$^{-1}$ of on-resonance $e^+e^-$ collision data under the assumption of Standard Model kinematics, providing the first evidence for this decay. To facilitate future reinterpretations and maximize the scientific impact of this measurement, we publicly release the full analysis likelihood along with all necessary material required for reinterpretation under arbitrary theoretical models sensitive to this measurement. In this work, we demonstrate how the measurement can be reinterpreted within the framework of the Weak Effective Theory. Using a kinematic reweighting technique in combination with the published likelihood, we derive marginal posterior distributions for the Wilson coefficients, construct credible intervals, and assess the goodness of fit to the Belle II data. For the Weak Effective Theory Wilson coefficients, the posterior mode of the magnitudes $|C_\mathrm{VL}+C_\mathrm{VR}|$, $|C_\mathrm{SL}+C_\mathrm{SR}|$, and $|C_\mathrm{TL}|$ corresponds to the point ${(11.3, 0.0, 8.2)}$. The respective 95\% credible intervals are $[1.9, 16.2]$, $[0.0, 15.4]$, and $[0.0, 11.2]$.

Measurements of the mass difference $m(B^0)-m(B^+)$ and the energy dependence of the cross-section ratio $σ(e^+e^-\to B^0\bar{B}^0) / σ(e^+e^-\to B^+B^-)$ at Belle and Belle II

Using data samples collected by the Belle and Belle II experiments at the $Υ(4S)$ resonance with integrated luminosities of 571 fb$^{-1}$ and 365 fb$^{-1}$, respectively, we measure the pseudoscalar $B$-meson mass difference to be $m(B^0)-m(B^+) = (0.495\pm0.024\pm0.005)$ MeV/c$^2$. The results are based on a simultaneous fit to the variable $\tilde{M}_{bc}$, which is related to the $B$ momentum, for $B^0$ and $B^+$ candidates; and to the energy dependence of ${\cal R}=σ(e^+e^-\to B^0\bar{B}^0) / σ(e^+e^-\to B^+B^-)$, which is measured using changes in the average center-of-mass energy over the data taking periods. The phase-space hypothesis ${\cal R}=(p_{B^0}/p_{B^+})^3$, upon which previous measurements rely, is strongly disfavored by our fit; the measured mass-difference value for the phase-space hypothesis also differs significantly from our measurement. We constrain ${\cal R}$ in a broader energy range than covered by the direct measurement and extract the energy dependence of ${\cal R}$ in the range from the $B\bar{B}$ threshold up to 10.59 GeV. We interpret the results using a phenomenological model and constrain the parameters of the $B\bar{B}$ potential in the isovector channel.

Measurement of the $ D^{0}\rightarrow K^{-}π^{+}e^{+}e^{-} $ branching fraction and search for $ D^{0}\rightarrow π^{+}π^{-}e^{+}e^{-} $ and $D^{0}\rightarrow K^{+}K^{-}e^{+}e^{-} $ decays at Belle

We present a study of the rare charm meson decays $ D^{0}\rightarrow K^{+}K^{-}e^{+}e^{-} $, $ π^{+}π^{-}e^{+}e^{-} $, and $ K^{-}π^{+}e^{+}e^{-} $ using a 942 fb$^{-1}$ data set collected by the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $ e^{+}e^{-} $ collider. We use $ D^{0} $ candidates identified by the charge of the pion in $ D^{*} \rightarrow D^{0} π$ decays and normalize the branching fractions to $ D^{0} \rightarrow K^{-}π^{+}π^{-}π^{+} $ decays. The branching fraction for decay $ D^{0} \rightarrow K^{-}π^{+}e^{+}e^{-} $ is measured to be (39.6 $\pm$ 4.5 (stat) $\pm$ 2.9 (syst)) $\times$ $10^{-7}$, with the dielectron mass in the $ ρ/ω$ mass region $ 675 < m_{ee} < 875 $ MeV$/c^{2}$. We also search for $ D^{0}\rightarrow h^{-} h^{(\prime)+}e^{+}e^{-} $ ($ h^{(\prime)}=K,\,π$) decays with the dielectron mass near the $η$ and $ϕ$ resonances, and away from these resonances for the $ K^{+}K^{-}e^{+}e^{-} $ and $ π^{+}π^{-}e^{+}e^{-} $ modes. For these modes, we find no significant signals and set 90$\%$ confidence level upper limits on their branching fractions at the $\mathcal{O}$(10$^{-7}$) level.

Charged-hadron identification at Belle II

The Belle II experiment's ability to identify particles critically affects the sensitivity of its measurements. We describe Belle II's algorithms for identifying charged particles and evaluate their performance in separating pions, kaons, and protons using 426 fb$^{-1}$ of data collected at the energy-asymmetric $e^+e^-$ collider SuperKEKB in 2019--2022 at center-of-mass energies at and near the mass of the $Υ(4S)$.

Search for an Axion-Like Particle in $B\rightarrow K^{(*)} a (\rightarrowγγ)$ Decays at Belle

We report a search for an axion-like particle $a$ in $B\rightarrow K^{(*)} a (\rightarrowγγ)$ decays using data collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric energy electron-positron collider. The search is based on a $711 \mathrm{fb^{-1}}$ data sample collected at the $Υ4S$ resonance energy, corresponding to a sample of $772\times10^6$ $Υ4S$ events. In this study, we search for the decay of the axion-like particle into a pair of photons, $a \rightarrow γγ$. We scan the two-photon invariant mass in the range $0.16\ \mathrm{GeV/}c^2-4.50\ \mathrm{GeV}/c^2$ for the $K$ modes and $0.16\ \mathrm{GeV/}c^2-4.20\ \mathrm{GeV}/c^2$ for the $K^{*}$ modes. No significant signal is observed in any of the modes, and 90\% confidence level upper limits are established on the coupling to the $W$ boson, $g_aW$, as a function of $a$ mass. The limits range from $3 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{GeV}^{-1}$ to $3 \times 10^{-5} \mathrm{GeV}^{-1}$, improving the current constraints on $g_aW$ by a factor of two over the most stringent previous experimental results.

An interferometric mid-infrared study of the eruptive star binary Z CMa with MATISSE/VLTI. I. Imaging the protoplanetary disks during the 2023 outburst

The mid-infrared (MIR) emitting regions of the individual protoplanetary disks in the binary system Z CMa are resolved by MATISSE/VLTI. The observations were obtained during a serendipitous large outburst of the HBe star that lasted more than 100 days, while the FUor companion is presumed to be in quiescence. The size of the MIR-emitting disk region of the more massive HBe star increases toward longer wavelengths from $<14$ mas at 3.5$μm$ to $\ll 50$ mas at 11.5$μm$ . The lack of substructures in the HBe disk might suggest that it is a continuous disk; however, this could be due to observational constraints. We also note a radial variation of the silicate absorption feature over the disk, where the optical depth increases inwards of $<$40~au radii. This contradicts the scenario of a carved, dusty cocoon surrounding the HBe star. In the case of the less massive FUor companion, the MIR-emitting region is much smaller with an angular size $\leq$15 mas (or else a physical radius $<9$ au) in all bands, suggesting a compact disk. Both disks are aligned within uncertainties, and their orientation agrees with that of the known jets. Furthermore, MATISSE data place the binary's separation at $117.88 \pm 0.73$ mas and a position angle of $139.16^o\,\pm\,0.29^o$ east of north. Our estimates for the orbital elements gave an eccentric orbit ($e\sim0.17$) with a moderate inclination ($i\sim 66$\degr). The derived total mass is $M_{\rm total} = 16.4^{+2.1}_{-2.3}$ M$_\odot$, while the period is approximately 950 years. Our MATISSE imaging of the Herbig disk during outburst indicates a temperature gradient for the disk, while imaging of the FUor companion's disk corroborates previous studies showing that FUor disks are rather compact in the MIR. We cannot infer any misalignment between the MATISSE results and earlier ALMA/JVLA data, nor can we infer any influence from the alleged flyby event.

Search for $CP$ violation in $Ξ_c^+\toΣ^+h^+h^-$ and $Λ_c^+\to ph^+h^-$ at Belle II

We report decay-rate $CP$ asymmetries of the singly-Cabibbo-suppressed decays $Ξ_c^+\toΣ^+h^+h^-$ and $Λ_c^+\to ph^+h^-$, with $h=K,π$, measured using 428 fb$^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ collisions collected by the Belle II experiment at the SuperKEKB collider. The results, \begin{equation} A_{CP}(Ξ_c^+\toΣ^+K^+K^-) = (3.7\pm6.6\pm0.6)\%, \end{equation} \begin{equation} A_{CP}(Ξ_c^+\toΣ^+π^+π^-) = (9.5\pm6.8\pm0.5)\%, \end{equation} \begin{equation} A_{CP}(Λ_c^+\to pK^+K^-) = (3.9\pm1.7\pm0.7)\%, \end{equation} \begin{equation} A_{CP}(Λ_c^+\to pπ^+π^-) = (0.3\pm1.0\pm0.2)\%, \end{equation} where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic, agree with $CP$ symmetry. From these results we derive the sums \begin{equation} A_{CP}(Ξ_c^+\toΣ^+π^+π^-) \, + \, A_{CP}(Λ_c^+\to pK^+K^-) = (13.4 \pm 7.0\pm 0.9)\%, \end{equation} \begin{equation} A_{CP}(Ξ_c^+\toΣ^+K^+K^-) \, + \, A_{CP}(Λ_c^+\to pπ^+π^-) = (\phantom{0}4.0 \pm 6.6\pm 0.7)\%, \end{equation} which are consistent with the $U$-spin symmetry prediction of zero. These are the first measurements of $CP$ asymmetries for individual hadronic three-body charmed-baryon decays.

Time-resolved protoplanetary disk physics in DQ Tau with JWST

Accretion variability is ubiquitous in YSOs. While large outbursts may strongly affect the disk, the effects of moderate bursts are less understood. We aim to study the physical response of the disk around the eccentric binary system DQ Tau to its periodic accretion changes. We organized a multi-wavelength campaign centered on four JWST/MIRI spectra. We targeted three periastrons (high accretion state) and one apastron (quiescence). We used optical and near-infrared spectroscopy and photometry to measure how the accretion luminosity varies. We decomposed the multi-epoch SEDs into stellar, accretion, and rim components. We fitted the solid-state features using various opacity curves and the molecular features using slab models. We find the inner disk of DQ Tau to be highly dynamic. The temperature, luminosity, and location of the inner dust rim vary in response to the movement of stars and the L_acc variations. This causes variable shadowing of the outer disk, leading to an anti-correlation between the rim temperature and the strength of the silicate feature. The dust mineralogy remains constant, dominated by large amorphous olivine and pyroxene grains, with smaller fractions of crystalline forsterite. The excitation of CO (1550-2260 K), HCN (880-980 K), and hot H2O (740-860 K) molecules as well as the luminosity of the [NeII] line correlate with the accretion rate, while the warm (650 K) and cold (170-200 K) H2O components are mostly constant. CO emission, originating from a hot (>1500 K) region likely within the dust sublimation radius, is most sensitive to L_acc changes. In comparison with other T Tauri disks, DQ Tau is highly C-poor and displays moderately inefficient pebble drift. We conclude that even moderate accretion rate changes affect the thermal structure in the planet-forming disk regions on short timescales, providing a crucial benchmark for understanding disk evolution.

The data samples used for this analysis have integrated luminosities of 711~$\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ and 365~$\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$, and were collected at the $Υ(4S)$ resonance by the Belle and Belle~II detectors operating at the KEKB and SuperKEKB asymmetric-energy $e^{+}e^{-}$ colliders, respectively.

Measurement of the CP asymmetry in $D^+ \to π^+ π^0$ decays at Belle II

We measure the CP asymmetry in $D^+ \to π^+ π^0$ decays reconstructed in $e^+ e^-$ collisions at the Belle II experiment using a data set corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 428 fb$^{-1}$. A control sample of $D^+ \to π^+ K_{S}$ decays is used to correct for detection and production asymmetries. The result, $A_{CP}(D^+ \to π^+π^0) =(-1.8 \pm 0.9 \pm 0.1)\%$, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic, is the most precise determination to date. It agrees with the prediction of CP symmetry from the standard model, and with results of previous measurements.

In this paper, we establish the $e$-positivity of all clock graphs $θ_{ab2}$ by using the composition method. The key idea is to investigate the fibers of certain partial reversal transformation on compositions with all parts at least $2$.

A new dark matter direct search based on archaeological Pb

The RES-NOVA project is an experimental initiative aimed at detecting neutrinos from the next galactic supernova using PbWO$_{4}$ cryogenic detectors, operated at low temperatures in a low-background environment. By utilizing archaeological lead (Pb) as the target material, RES-NOVA leverages its high radiopurity, large nuclear mass, and the natural abundance of $^{207}$Pb, making it well-suited for exploring both spin-independent and spin-dependent Dark Matter (DM) interactions via nuclear scattering. This work presents a background model developed for the RES-NOVA technology demonstrator and evaluates its implications for Dark Matter detection. Detailed calculations of nuclear matrix elements, combined with the unique properties of archaeological Pb, demonstrate RES-NOVA's potential as a complementary tool to existing direct detection experiments for studying Dark Matter interactions. The experiment will conduct DM searches over a broad mass range spanning 4 orders of magnitude, from sub-GeV/$c^2$ to TeV/$c^2$. In the most optimistic scenario, RES-NOVA is expected to probe DM-nucleon cross-sections down to 1$\times 10^{-43}$ cm$^2$ and 2$\times 10^{-46}$ cm$^2$ for candidates with masses of 2 GeV/$c^2$ and 20 GeV/$c^2$, respectively.
