q-derivatives of multivariable q-hypergeometric function with respect to their parameters

We consider the q-derivatives of the Srivastava and Daoust basic multivariable hypergeometric function with respect to the parameters. This function embodies a entire number of various q-hypergeometric series of one and several variables. Explicit equations are given for general case of summation indexes with positive real coefficients. As an example derivatives of q-analog of non-confluent Horn type hypergeometric function $H_3$ is presented.

Derivatives of Horn-type hypergeometric functions with respect to their parameters

We consider the derivatives of Horn hypergeometric functions of any number variables with respect to their parameters. The derivative of the function in $n$ variables is expressed as a Horn hypergeometric series of $n+1$ infinite summations depending on the same variables and with the same region of convergence as for original Horn function. The derivatives of Appell functions, generalized hypergeometric functions, confluent and non-confluent Lauricella series and generalized Lauricella series are explicitly presented. Applications to the calculation of Feynman diagrams are discussed, especially the series expansion in $\epsilon$ within dimensional regularization. Connections with other classes of special functions are discussed as well.

HYPERgeometric functions DIfferential REduction: Mathematica-based packages for the differential reduction of generalizedhypergeometric functions: Fc hypergeometric function of three variables

We present a further extension of the HYPERDIRE project, which is devoted to the creation of a set of Mathematica-based program packages for manipulations with Horn-type hypergeometric functions on the basis of differential equations. Specifically, we present the implementation of the differential reduction for the Lauricella function $F_C$ of three variables.

Observation of a charged charmoniumlike structure Z_c(4020) and search for the Z_c(3900) in e+e- to pi+pi-h_c

We study e+e- --> pi+pi-h_c at center-of-mass energies from 3.90 GeV to 4.42 GeV using data samples collected with the BESIII detector operating at the Beijing Electron Positron Collider. The Born cross sections are measured at 13 energies, and are found to be of the same order of magnitude as those of e+e- --> pi+pi-J/psi but with a different line shape. In the \pi^\pm h_c mass spectrum, a distinct structure, referred to as Z_c(4020), is observed at 4.02 GeV/c^2. The Z_c(4020) carries an electric charge and couples to charmonium. A fit to the \pi^\pm h_c invariant mass spectrum, neglecting possible interferences, results in a mass of (4022.9\pm 0.8\pm 2.7) MeV/c^2 and a width of (7.9\pm 2.7\pm 2.6) MeV for the Z_c(4020), where the first errors are statistical and the second systematic. No significant Z_c(3900) signal is observed, and upper limits on the Z_c(3900) production cross sections in \pi^\pm h_c at center-of-mass energies of 4.23 and 4.26 GeV are set.

Observation of a charged charmoniumlike structure in $e^+e^- \to (D^{*} \bar{D}^{*})^{\pm} \pi^\mp$ at $\sqrt{s}=4.26$GeV

We study the process $e^+e^- \to (D^{*} \bar{D}^{*})^{\pm} \pi^\mp$ at a center-of-mass energy of 4.26GeV using a 827pb$^{-1}$ data sample obtained with the BESIII detector at the Beijing Electron Positron Collider. Based on a partial reconstruction technique, the Born cross section is measured to be $(137\pm9\pm15)$pb. We observe a structure near the $(D^{*} \bar{D}^{*})^{\pm}$ threshold in the $\pi^\mp$ recoil mass spectrum, which we denote as the $Z^{\pm}_c(4025)$. The measured mass and width of the structure are $(4026.3\pm2.6\pm3.7)$MeV/c$^2$ and $(24.8\pm5.6\pm7.7)$MeV, respectively. Its production ratio $\frac{\sigma(e^+e^-\to Z^{\pm}_c(4025)\pi^\mp \to (D^{*} \bar{D}^{*})^{\pm} \pi^\mp)}{\sigma(e^+e^-\to (D^{*} \bar{D}^{*})^{\pm} \pi^\mp)}$ is determined to be $0.65\pm0.09\pm0.06$. The first uncertainties are statistical and the second are systematic.

Precision Measurements of ${\cal B}[\psi(3686) \to \pi^+\pi^- J/\psi]$ and ${\cal B}[J/\psi\to l^+l^-]$

Based on $(106.41 \pm 0.86)\times 10^{6}$ $\psi(3686)$ events collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, the branching fractions of $\psi(3686) \to \pi^+\pi^- J/\psi$, $J/\psi \to e^+e^- $, and $J/\psi \to \mu^+\mu^-$ are measured. We obtain ${\cal B}[\psi(3686) \to \pi^+\pi^-J/\psi]=(34.98\pm 0.02\pm 0.45)%$, ${\cal B}[J/\psi \to e^+e^-] = (5.983 \pm 0.007 \pm 0.037)%$ and ${\cal B}[J/\psi \to \mu^+\mu^-] = (5.973 \pm 0.007 \pm 0.038)%$. The measurement of ${\cal B}[\psi(3686) \to \pi^{+}\pi^{-}J/\psi]$ confirms the CLEO-c measurement, and is apparently larger than the others. The measured $J/\psi$ leptonic decay branching fractions agree with previous experiments within one standard deviation. These results lead to ${\cal B}[J/\psi \to l^+l^-] = (5.978 \pm 0.005 \pm 0.040)%$ by averaging over the $e^{+}e^{-}$ and $\mu^{+}\mu^{-}$ channels and a ratio of ${\cal B}[J/\psi \to e^+e^-] / {\cal B}[J/\psi \to \mu^+\mu^-] = 1.0017 \pm 0.0017 \pm 0.0033$, which tests $e$-$\mu$ universality at the four tenths of a percent level. All the measurements presented in this paper are the most precise in the world to date.

Observation of a structure at 1.84 GeV/c$^2$ in the $3(\pi^+\pi^-)$ mass spectrum in $J/\psi\rightarrow \gamma 3(\pi^+\pi^-)$ decays

With a sample of 225.3 million $J/\psi$ events taken with the BESIII detector, the decay $J/\psi\rightarrow \gamma 3(\pi^+\pi^-)$ is analyzed. A structure at 1.84 GeV/c$^2$ is observed in the $3(\pi^+\pi^-)$ invariant mass spectrum with a statistical significance of 7.6$\sigma$ . The mass and width are measured to be $M=1842.2\pm 4.2^{+7.1}_{-2.6}$ MeV/c$^2$ and $\Gamma=83\pm 14 \pm 11$ MeV. The product branching fraction is determined to be $B(J/\psi\rightarrow\gamma X(1840))\times B(X(1840)\rightarrow 3(\pi^+\pi^-))=(2.44\pm0.36^{+0.60}_{-0.74})\times 10^{-5}$. No $\eta^\prime$ signals are observed in the $3(\pi^+\pi^-)$ invariant mass spectrum, and the upper limit of the branching fraction for the decay $\eta^\prime\rightarrow 3(\pi^+\pi^-)$ is set to be $3.1\times10^{-5}$ at a 90% confidence level.

Search for Baryonic Decays of \psi(3770) and \psi(4040)

By analyzing data samples of 2.9 fb^{-1} collected at \sqrt s=3.773 GeV, 482 pb^{-1} collected at \sqrt s=4.009 GeV and 67 pb^{-1} collected at \sqrt s=3.542, 3.554, 3.561, 3.600 and 3.650 GeV with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII storage ring, we search for \psi(3770) and \psi(4040) decay to baryonic final states, including \Lambda\bar\Lambda\pi^+\pi^-, \Lambda \bar\Lambda\pi^0, \Lambda\bar\Lambda\eta, \Sigma^+ \bar\Sigma^-, \Sigma^0 \bar\Sigma^0, \Xi^-\bar\Xi^+ and \Xi^0\bar\Xi^0 decays. None are observed, and upper limits are set at the 90% confidence level.

We search for the lepton-flavor-violating decay of the $J/\psi$ into an electron and a muon using $(225.3\pm2.8)\times 10^{6}$ $J/\psi$ events collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider. Four candidate events are found in the signal region, consistent with background expectations. An upper limit on the branching fraction of $\mathcal{B}(J/\psi \to e\mu)< 1.5 \times 10^{-7}$ (90% C.L.) is obtained.

Partial wave analysis of $\psi(2S) \to p \bar{p}\eta$

Using a sample of $1.06 \times 10^{8}$ $\psi(2S)$ events collected with the BESIII detector at BEPCII, the decay $\psi(2S) \to p \bar{p}\eta$ is studied. A partial wave analysis determines that the intermediate state N(1535) with a mass of $1524\pm5^{+10}_{-4}$ MeV/$c^2$ and a width of $130^{+27+57}_{-24-10}$ MeV/$c^2$ is dominant in the decay; the product branching fraction is determined to be $B(\psi(2S) \to N(1535)\bar{p})\times B(N(1535)\to p\eta)+c.c. = (5.2\pm0.3^{+3.2}_{-1.2})\times 10^{-5}$. Furthermore, the branching fraction of $\psi(2S) \to \eta p \bar{p}$ is measured to be $(6.4\pm0.2\pm0.6)\times 10^{-5}$.

Measurement of $\eta^\prime\rightarrow \pi^+\pi^- e^+e^-$ and $\eta^\prime\rightarrow \pi^+\pi^-\mu^+\mu^-$

Based on a sample of 225.3 million J/\psi events accumulated with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII, the decays of \eta' to pi+pi-l+l- are studied via J/\psi to \gamma\eta'. A clear \eta' signal is observed in the pi+pi-e+e- mass spectrum, and the branching fraction is measured to be \BR(\eta' to pi+pi-e+e-) = (2.11\pm0.12 (stat.)\pm0.15 (syst.))\times10^{-3}, which is in good agreement with theoretical predictions and the previous measurement, but is determined with much higher precision. No \eta' signal is found in the pi+ pi- mu+ mu- mass spectrum, and the upper limit is determined to be \BR(\eta' to pi+ pi- mu+ mu-)<2.9\times10^{-5} at the 90% confidence level.

Observation of a charged charmoniumlike structure in e+e- to pi+pi-J/psi at \sqrt{s}=4.26 GeV

We study the process e+e- to pi+pi-J/psi at a center-of-mass energy of 4.260 GeV using a 525 pb^{-1} data sample collected with the BESIII detector operating at the Beijing Electron Positron Collider. The Born cross section is measured to be (62.9\pm 1.9\pm 3.7) pb, consistent with the production of the Y(4260). We observe a structure at around 3.9 GeV/c^2 in the \pi^\pm J/psi mass spectrum, which we refer to as the Z_c(3900). If interpreted as a new particle, it is unusual in that it carries an electric charge and couples to charmonium. A fit to the \pi^\pm J/psi invariant mass spectrum, neglecting interference, results in a mass of (3899.0\pm 3.6\pm 4.9) MeV/c^2 and a width of (46\pm 10\pm 20) MeV. Its production ratio is measured to be R=\frac{\sigma(e+e- to \pi^\pm Z_c(3900)^\mp to pi+pi-J/psi))} {\sigma(e+e- to pi+pi-J/psi)}=(21.5\pm 3.3\pm 7.5)%. In all measurements the first errors are statistical and the second are systematic.

Study of $J/\psi \rightarrow \omega p \bar{p}$ at BESIII

The decay $J/\psi \rightarrow \omega p \bar{p}$ has been studied, using $225.3\times 10^{6}$ $J/\psi$ events accumulated at BESIII. No significant enhancement near the $p\bar{p}$ invariant-mass threshold (denoted as $X(p\bar{p})$) is observed. The upper limit of the branching fraction $\mathcal{B}(J/\psi \rightarrow \omega X(p\bar{p}) \rightarrow \omega p \bar{p})$ is determined to be $3.9\times10^{-6}$ at the 95% confidence level. The branching fraction of $J/\psi \rightarrow \omega p \bar{p}$ is measured to be $\mathcal{B}(J/\psi \rightarrow \omega p \bar{p}) =(9.0 \pm 0.2\ (\text{stat.})\pm 0.9\ (\text{syst.})) \times 10^{-4}$.

Evidence for \eta_{c}(2S) in \psi(3686) \to \gamma K_{S}^{0}K^{\pm}\pi^{\mp}\pi^{+}\pi^{-}

We search for the M1 radiative transition \psi(3686) \to \gamma\eta_{c}(2S) by reconstructing the exclusive \eta_{c}(2S) \to K_{S}^{0}K^{\pm}\pi^{\mp}\pi^{+}\pi^{-} decay using 1.06 \times 10^8 \psi(3686) events collected with the BESIII detector. The signal is observed with a statistical significance of greater than 4 standard deviations. The measured mass of the \eta_{c}(2S) is 3646.9 \pm 1.6(stat) \pm 3.6(syst) MeV/c^2, and the width is 9.9 \pm 4.8(stat) \pm 2.9(syst) MeV/c^2. The product branching fraction is measured to be B(\psi(3686) \to \gamma\eta_{c}(2S)) \times B(\eta_{c}(2S) \to K_{S}^{0}K^{\pm}\pi^{\mp}\pi^{+}\pi^{-}) = (7.03 \pm 2.10(stat) \pm 0.70(syst)) \times 10^{-6}. This measurement complements a previous BESIII measurement of \psi(3686) \to \gamma\eta_{c}(2S) with \eta_{c}(2S) \to K_{S}^{0} K^{\pm}\pi^{\mp} and K^{+}K^{-}\pi^{0}.

Partial wave analysis of $J/\psi \to \gamma \eta \eta$

Based on a sample of $2.25\times 10^{8}$ $J/\psi$ events collected with the BESIII detector at BEPCII, a full partial wave analysis on $J/\psi\to\gamma\eta\eta$ was performed using the relativistic covariant tensor amplitude method. The results show that the dominant $0^{++}$ and $2^{++}$ components are from the $f_0(1710)$, $f_0(2100)$, $f_0(1500)$, $f_2'(1525)$, $f_2(1810)$ and $f_2(2340)$. The resonance parameters and branching fractions are also presented.

Study of the near-threshold $\omega\phi$ mass enhancement in doubly OZI suppressed $J/\psi \to \gamma\omega\phi$ decays

A 2.25$\times10^8$ $\jpsi$ event sample accumulated with the BESIII detector is used to study the doubly OZI suppressed decay modes $\jpsi\to\gamma\of$, $\omega\to\ppp$, $\phi\to\kk$. A strong deviation ($>$ 30$\sigma$) from three-body $\jpsi\to\gamma\omega\phi$ phase space is observed near the $\omega\phi$ mass threshold that is consistent with a previous observation reported by the BESII experiment. A partial wave analysis with a tensor covariant amplitude that assumes that the enhancement is due to the presence of a resonance, the X(1810), is performed, and confirms that the spin-parity of the X(1810) is $0^{++}$. The mass and width of the X(1810) are determined to be $M=1795\pm7$(stat)$^{+13}_{-5}$(syst)$\pm$19(mod) MeV/$c^2$ and $\Gamma=95\pm10$(stat)$^{+21}_{-34}$(syst)$\pm$75(mod) MeV/$c^2$, respectively, and the product branching fraction is measured to be ${\cal B}(\jpsi\to\gamma X(1810))\times{\cal B}(X(1810)\to\of)=(2.00\pm0.08$(stat)$^{+0.45}_{-1.00}$(syst)$\pm$1.30(mod))$\times10^{-4}$. %where the first error is the statistical error and the second the systematical error. These results are consistent within errors with those of the BESII experiment.

Search for $\eta$ and $\eta^\prime\to \pi^+ e^- \bar{\nu}_e +c.c.$ decays in $\jpsi \to \phi \eta$ and $\phi \eta^\prime$

Using a sample of 225.3 million $\jpsi$ events collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII $e^+e^-$ collider in 2009, searches for the decays of $\eta$ and $\eta^\prime\to\pi^+ e^- \bar{\nu}_e +c.c.$ in $\jpsi \to \phi \eta$ and $\phi\eta^\prime$ are performed. The $\phi$ signals, which are reconstructed in $K^+K^-$ final states, are used to tag $\eta$ and $\eta^\prime$ semileptonic decays. No signals are observed for either $\eta$ or $\eta^\prime$, and upper limits at the 90% confidence level are determined to be $7.3\times 10^{-4}$ and $5.0\times 10^{-4}$ for the ratios $\frac{{\mathcal B}(\eta\to \pi^+ e^- \bar{\nu}_e +c.c.)}{{\mathcal B}(\eta \to \pip\pim\piz)}$ and $\frac{{\mathcal B}(\eta^\prime\to \pi^+ e^-\bar{\nu}_e +c.c.)}{{\mathcal B}(\eta^\prime \to \pip\pim\eta)}$, respectively. These are the first upper limit values determined for $\eta$ and $\eta^\prime$ semileptonic weak decays.

Measurements of Baryon Pair Decays of $\chi_{cJ}$ Mesons

Using 106 $\times 10^{6}$ $\psi^{\prime}$ decays collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII, three decays of $\chi_{cJ}$ ($J=0,1,2$) with baryon pairs ($\llb$, $\ssb$, $\SSB$) in the final state have been studied. The branching fractions are measured to be $\cal{B}$$(\chi_{c0,1,2}\rightarrow\Lambda\bar\Lambda) =(33.3 \pm 2.0 \pm 2.6)\times 10^{-5}$, $(12.2 \pm 1.1 \pm 1.1)\times 10^{-5}$, $(20.8 \pm 1.6 \pm 2.3)\times 10^{-5}$; $\cal{B}$$(\chi_{c0,1,2}\rightarrow\Sigma^{0}\bar\Sigma^{0})$ = $(47.8 \pm 3.4 \pm 3.9)\times 10^{-5}$, $(3.8 \pm 1.0 \pm 0.5)\times 10^{-5}$, $(4.0 \pm 1.1 \pm 0.5) \times 10^{-5}$; and $\cal{B}$$(\chi_{c0,1,2}\rightarrow\Sigma^{+}\bar\Sigma^{-})$ = $(45.4 \pm 4.2 \pm 3.0)\times 10^{-5}$, $(5.4 \pm 1.5 \pm 0.5)\times 10^{-5}$, $(4.9 \pm 1.9 \pm 0.7)\times 10^{-5}$, where the first error is statistical and the second is systematic. Upper limits on the branching fractions for the decays of $\chi_{c1,2}\rightarrow\Sigma^{0}\bar\Sigma^{0}$, $\Sigma^{+}\bar\Sigma^{-}$, are estimated to be $\cal{B}$$(\chi_{c1}\rightarrow\Sigma^{0}\bar\Sigma^{0}) < 6.2\times 10^{-5}$, $\cal{B}$$(\chi_{c2}\rightarrow\Sigma^{0}\bar\Sigma^{0}) < 6.5\times 10^{-5}$, $\cal{B}$$(\chi_{c1}\rightarrow\Sigma^{+}\bar\Sigma^{-}) < 8.7\times 10^{-5}$ and $\cal{B}$$(\chi_{c2}\rightarrow\Sigma^{+}\bar\Sigma^{-}) < 8.8\times 10^{-5}$ at the 90% confidence level.
