Evidence of the $e^+ e^-\to f_1(1285)$ reaction with the CMD-3 detector at VEPP-2000

A search for the $e^+ e^-\to f_1(1285)$ reaction is performed with the CMD-3 detector at the VEPP-2000 collider. Data from a scan in the center-of-mass energy range Ec.m.=1.20--1.36 GeV with 109.1 pb$^{-1}$ of the integrated luminosity is used. A dedicated 51.7 pb$^{-1}$ have been collected at the $f_1(1285)$ resonance peak energy Ec.m.=1282 MeV, where $26.5 \pm 7.4$ events have been found in the $e^+ e^-\toηπ^0π^0$ reaction. No indication of the signal is observed in the scan data. We interpret the result as 4.5$σ$ evidence of the C-even resonance production in the $e^+ e^-\to f_1(1285)\toηπ^0π^0$ reaction via the two-photon interaction. The production cross section is found to be $σ(e^+ e^-\to f_1) = 0.074 \pm 0.021 \pm 0.010$ nb, and the corresponding branching fraction to the $e^+ e^-$ pair is $B(f_1(1285)\to e^+e^-) = (8.3 \pm 2.3 \pm 1.1)\times 10^{-9}$.

Measurement of the neutron timelike electric and magnetic form factors ratio at the VEPP-2000 $e^+e^-$ collider

In the experiment to study the e+e->n+anti n process at the VEPP-2000 $e^+e^-$ collider, the ratio |GE|/|GM| of the neutron timelike electric and magnetic form factors has been measured. The experiment was carried out with the SND detector in the center-of-mass energy range 1890-2000 MeV in eight energy points with an integrated luminosity of 83 inv.pb. The |GE|/|GM| ratio is determined by the analyzing the distribution of the polar angle of the produced antineutron. The measured |GE|/|GM| value in the energy range under study is between 1.0 and 1.5 with an average value of 1.21+-0.13.

Measurement of the $e^+e^-\toηγ$ cross section near the $ϕ(1020)$ resonance with the SND detector

In the experiment with the SND detector at the VEPP-2000 $e^+e^-$ collider, the $e^+e^-\toηγ$ cross section is measured in the energy range $E = 980 - 1060$ MeV. The measurement is carried out in the $η\to 2γ$ decay mode. Data with an integrated luminosity of 73 pb$^{-1}$ collected in 2018 and 2024 are used in the analysis. The measured cross section is the most accurate to date and is higher compared to other measurements. From the fit to the cross section data with the vector meson dominance model, the value of the product of the branching fractions $B(ϕ\to e^+e^-)B(ϕ\to ηγ)$ has been obtained.

Measurement of the $e^+e^-\to K_SK_L$ cross section near the $ϕ(1020)$ resonance with the SND detector

The cross section for the $e^+e^-\to K_SK_L$ process is measured in the center-of-mass energy range from 1000 MeV to 1100 MeV in the experiment with the SND detector at the VEPP-2000 $e^+e^-$ collider. The measurement is carried out in the $K_S\to 2π^0$ decay mode. Data with an integrated luminosity of 20 pb$^{-1}$ recorded in 2018 at 18 energy points are used in the analysis. The systematic uncertainty in the measured cross section at the maximum of the $ϕ$ resonance is 0.9%. The mass, width of the $ϕ$ meson, and the product of the branching fractions $B(ϕ\to K_SK_L)B(ϕ\to e^+e^-)$ are determined from the fit to the cross-section energy dependence.

Cross section of the process $e^+e^-\to n\bar{n}$ near the threshold

The $e^+e^-\to n\bar{n}$ cross section was measured at center of mass (c.m.) energies from the threshold to 1908 MeV. The experiment to measure the cross section has been carried out at the VEPP-2000 $e^+e^-$ collider in 13 energy points. The SND detector is used to detect the produced neutron-antineutrons ($n\bar{n}$) events. A special time measurement system on the calorimeter was used to select the time-delayed $n\bar{n}$ events. The measured $e^+e^-\to n\bar{n}$ cross section is 0.4--0.6 nb. The neutron effective timelike form factor in the energy range under study varies from 0.3 to 0.6.

Search for the process $\mathbf{\it e^+e^-\toη^{\prime}γ}$ in the energy range $\mathbf{\it \sqrt{s}}$ = 1.075 -- 2 GeV

The results of the search for the $e^+e^-\toη^{\prime}γ$ process in the center-of-mass energy range from 1.075 to 2 GeV are presented. We analyze data with an integral luminosity of 746 pb$^{-1}$ accumulated with the SND detector at the $e^+e^-$ collider VEPP-2000 in 2010--2024. The $η^{\prime}\toηπ^0π^0$ decay is used in the analysis, with the subsequent $η$ and $π^0$ decays into $γγ$. Upper limits not exceeding 13 pb have been set on the $e^+e^-\toη^{\prime}γ$ cross section at the 90\% confidence level.

Measurement of the neutron timelike electromagnetic form factor with the SND detector

The results of the measurement of the $e^+e^- \to n \bar{n}$ cross section and effective neutron timelike form factor are presented. The data taking was carried out in 2020-2021 at the VEPP-2000 $e^+e^-$ collider in the center-of-mass energy range from 1891 to 2007 MeV. The general purpose nonmagnetic detector SND is used to detect neutron-antineutron events. The event selection is performed using the time-of-flight technique. The measured cross section is 0.4-0.6 nb. The neutron form factor in the energy range under study varies from 0.3 to 0.2.
