Study of $\bar{K}^*(892)^0 η$ and $K_S^0 a_0(980)^0$ in the $D^{0} \to K_{S}^{0}π^0η$ decay

We perform an amplitude analysis of the decay $D^0 \to K_S^0 π^0 η$ and measure its absolute branching fraction to be $(1.016 \pm 0.013_{\text {stat.}} \pm 0.014_{\text {syst.}})\%$. The analysis utilizes $20.3~\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ of $e^{+}e^{-}$ collision data collected at a center-of-mass energy of 3.773~GeV with the BESIII detector. The branching fraction of the intermediate process $D^0 \rightarrow \bar{K}^*(892)^0 η$ is determined to be $(0.73 \pm 0.05_{\text {stat.}} \pm 0.03_{\text {syst.}}) \%$, which is $5 σ$ smaller than the result measured in $D^0 \to K^- π^+ η$ by the Belle experiment. As a result, the magnitudes of the $W$-exchange and QCD-penguin exchange amplitudes are found to be less than half of their current estimations. Furthermore, we determine $\mathcal{B}(D^0\to K_S^0a_0(980)^0, a_0(980)^0\to π^0η) = (9.88\pm 0.37_{\rm stat.}\pm 0.42_{\rm syst.})\times10^{-3}$, with a precision improved by a factor of 4.5 compared to the world average.

Cross sections measurement of $e^+e^-\to Ξ(1530)^0\barΞ^0 + c.c.$ and search for $ψ(3770)\toΞ(1530)^0\barΞ^0 + c.c.$

Using $e^+e^-$ collision data collected with the BESIII detector corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 44.2 fb$^{-1}$, we measure the Born cross sections for the process $e^+e^- \to Ξ(1530)^{0} \barΞ^{0} + c.c.$ at forty-eight center-of-mass energies between 3.51 and 4.95 GeV. The potential signal from non-$D\bar{D}$ decays for $ψ(3770)$, i.e. $ψ(3770)\to Ξ(1530)^{0} \barΞ^{0}+ c.c.$, is investigated by fitting the dressed cross section, no obvious signal is found. The upper limit of $\mathcal{B}(ψ(3770) \to Ξ(1530)^{0} \barΞ^{0}$) at 90\% confidence level is given.

By analyzing $(10087 \pm 44)\times10^6$ $J/ψ$ events collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII, the decays $J/ψ\to Ξ^0\barΛK^0_S+c.c.$, $J/ψ\to Ξ^0\barΣ^0 K^0_S+c.c.$, and $J/ψ\to Ξ^0\barΣ^- K^++c.c.$ are observed for the first time.

Measurements of the branching fractions of $χ_{cJ}\to ϕϕη, ϕϕη^{\prime}$ and $ϕK^+K^-η$

Using a sample of $(2712.4 \pm 14.3)\times 10^6 ~ψ$(3686) events collected by the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, we measure the branching fractions of the decays $χ_{cJ}\to ϕϕη,~ϕϕη^{\prime}$, and~$ϕK^+K^-η$ ($J = 0, 1, 2$). The obtained branching fractions are $\mathcal{B}(χ_{c0} \to ϕϕη) = (7.40 \pm 0.23 \pm 0.55)\times10^{-4}$, $\mathcal{B}(χ_{c1} \to ϕϕη) = (3.33 \pm 0.14 \pm 0.25)\times10^{-4}$, $\mathcal{B}(χ_{c2} \to ϕϕη) = (5.46 \pm 0.17 \pm 0.40)\times10^{-4}$, $\mathcal{B}(χ_{c0} \to ϕϕη^\prime) = (2.96 \pm 0.23 \pm 0.29)\times10^{-4}$, $\mathcal{B}(χ_{c1} \to ϕϕη^\prime) = (0.69 \pm 0.10 \pm 0.08)\times10^{-4}$, $\mathcal{B}(χ_{c2} \to ϕϕη^\prime) = (0.65 \pm 0.09 \pm 0.07)\times10^{-4}$, $\mathcal{B}(χ_{c0} \to ϕK^+K^-η) = (1.23 \pm 0.08 \pm 0.10)\times10^{-4}$, $\mathcal{B}(χ_{c1} \to ϕK^+K^-η) = (1.00 \pm 0.07 \pm 0.07)\times10^{-4}$, and $\mathcal{B}(χ_{c2} \to ϕK^+K^-η) = (1.82 \pm 0.09 \pm 0.14)\times10^{-4}$, where $K^+K^-$ is not from the decay of a $ϕ$ meson, the first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic. The branching fractions of $χ_{cJ}\to ϕϕη$ are measured with precision improved by factors of $1.5-1.9$, and those of $χ_{cJ}\to ϕϕη^\prime$ and $ϕK^+K^-η$ are measured for the first time.

Search for CP violation in $e^{+}e^{-} \to ψ(3770) \to D^{0}\bar{D}^{0}$ via $D -> K^{0}_{S} π^{0}$

Utilizing data sample of electron-positron collisions recorded with the BESIII detector at the center of mass energy of 3.773 GeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 20.28 fb$^{-1}$, we report the first search for the CP forbidden process $e^+e^- \to ψ(3773) \to D^0\bar{D}^0 \to (K^0_Sπ^0)(K^0_Sπ^0)$. No significant signal is observed. We set the upper limit on the observed cross section to be 7.37 fb, and the upper limit on the joint branching fraction of the C-odd correlated neutral $D$ pair $\mathcal{B}[(D^{0} \bar{D}^{0})_{\text{C-odd}} \to (K^{0}_{S} π^{0})(K^{0}_{S} π^{0})] < 2.04 \times 10^{-6}$ at the 90% confidence level.

Evidence for the semileptonic decays $Λ_c^{+} \to Σ^{\pm} π^{\mp} e^+ ν_e$

Using $4.5\, fb^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ collision data collected by the BESIII detector at center-of-mass energies between $4.600$ and $4.699\,GeV$, we search for the semileptonic decays $Λ_c^{+} \to Σ^{+} π^{-} e^+ ν_e$ and $Λ_c^{+} \to Σ^{-} π^{+} e^+ ν_e$ for the first time. Assuming their branching fractions are equal under isospin symmetry, evidence for $Λ_c^{+} \to Σ^{\pm} π^{\mp} e^+ ν_e$ is reported with a significance of $3.6σ$. The corresponding branching fraction is measured to be $\mathcal{B}(Λ_c^{+} \to Σ^\pmπ^\mp e^+ν_e) = (7.7^{+2.5}_{-2.3_{\rm stat.}}\pm1.3_{\rm syst.})\times 10^{-4}$, which is consistent with quark model predictions within two standard deviations.

The hyperon weak radiative decay $Ξ^0\toγΣ^0$ is measured via the process $J/ψ\toΞ^0\barΞ^0$. The absolute branching fraction of $Ξ^0\toγΣ^0$ is determined to be $(3.69\pm 0.21_{\text{stat}}\pm0.12_{\text{syst}})\times 10^{-3}$, based on $(10.087\pm 0.044)\times 10^{9}$ $J/ψ$ events collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII collider. The decay asymmetry parameter is measured, with a complete angular analysis of the cascade decay chain, to be $α_γ = -0.807\pm 0.095_{\text{stat}}\pm 0.011_{\text{syst}}$.

Measurement of the Born cross section for $e^+e^- \to p K^- K^- \barΞ^+$ at $\sqrt{s} =$ 3.5-4.9 GeV

Using $e^+ e^-$ collision data corresponding to a total integrated luminosity of 20 ${\rm fb}^{-1}$ collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, we present a measurement of the Born cross section for the process $e^+e^- \to p K^-K^-\barΞ^{+}$ at 39 center-of-mass energies between 3.5 and 4.9 GeV with a partial reconstruction technique.

Measurement of Born Cross Sections and Effective Form Factors of $e^+e^-\to Ω^{-}\barΩ^{+}$ from$\sqrt{s}$ = 3.7 to 4.7 GeV

Using $e^+e^-$ collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 22.7 fb$^{-1}$, collected at center-of-mass energies between 3.7 and 4.7 GeV with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII storage ring, we measure the energy-dependent Born cross sections of $e^+e^-\to Ω^{-}\barΩ^+$ and the effective form factors of the $Ω^-$ baryon. The analysis employs a single baryon tagging method, and the results are consistent with theoretical predictions, providing critical constraints on the electromagnetic structure of the $Ω^-$ hyperon. No significant signal of charmonium or charmonium-like states decaying to $Ω^{-}\barΩ^+$ is observed in the investigated energy range.

Observation of Charmonium $h_{c}$ Radiative Decays to Multiple Light Hadrons and the Tensor State $f_2(1270)$

Using $ψ(3686)\rightarrow π^{0} h_{c}$ decays from a data sample of $(27.12\pm0.14)\times10^{8}$ $ψ(3686)$ events collected by the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, $h_c$ radiative decays to $γπ^{+}π^{-},~γπ^{+}π^{-}η,~\gamma2(π^{+}π^{-})$, and $γp\bar{p}$ are observed for the first time, each with a significance greater than $5σ$. The corresponding branching fractions are measured. Furthermore, intermediate states below 2.8 GeV/$c^{2}$ are investigated, leading to the first observation of the decay process of $h_c\rightarrowγf_{2}(1270)\rightarrowγπ^{+}π^{-}$ with a significance of $5.5\,σ$. This observation represents the first instance of $h_c$ radiative decay to a tensor state.

Test of $CP$ Symmetry in the Neutral Decays of $Λ$ via $J/ψ\toΛ\barΛ$

Using $(10087\pm44)\times10^{6}$ $J/ψ$ events collected with the BESIII detector, a full angular distribution analysis is carried out on the process $J/ψ\rightarrowΛ\barΛ\rightarrow nπ^{0}\bar{p}π^{+}+c.c.$ The decay parameters $α_{0}$ for $Λ\rightarrow nπ^{0}$ and $\barα_{0}$ for $\barΛ\rightarrow \bar{n}π^{0}$ are measured to be $0.668\pm0.007\pm0.002$ and $-0.677\pm0.007\pm0.003$, respectively, yielding the most precise test for $CP$ symmetry of neutral decays of $Λ$, $A_{CP}^{0}=(α_{0}+\barα_{0})/(α_{0}-\barα_{0})$, to be $-0.006\pm0.007\pm0.002$. The ratios $α_{0}/α_{-}$ and $\barα_{0}/α_{+}$ are determined to be $0.884\pm0.013\pm0.006$ and $0.885\pm0.013\pm0.004$, where $α_{-}$ and $α_{+}$ are the decay parameters of $Λ\rightarrow pπ^{-}$ and $\barΛ\rightarrow\bar{p}π^{+}$, respectively. The ratios, found to be smaller than unity by more than $5σ$, confirm the presence of the $ΔI = 3/2$ transition in the $Λ$ and $\barΛ$ decays, which is expected to improve the theoretical calculations for strong and weak phases, and $A_{CP}$, in hyperon decays. In all results, the first and second uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively.

Measurements of the absolute branching fractions of the doubly Cabibbo-suppressed decays $D^+\to K^+π^0$, $D^+\to K^+η$ and $D^+\to K^+η^{\prime}$

Using $20.3\,\rm fb^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ collision data collected at a center-of-mass energy of 3.773\,GeV with the BESIII detector, we present the measurements of the absolute branching fractions of the doubly Cabibbo-suppressed decays $D^+\to K^+π^0$, $D^+\to K^+η$ and $ D^+ \to K^+ η^{\prime}$ with the double-tag method, with significantly improved precision compared to the previous measurements. The statistical significance of each signal decay exceeds $10σ$. The branching fractions are determined to be ${\mathcal B}(D^+\to K^+ π^0) = (1.45 \pm 0.06 \pm 0.08)\times 10^{-4}$, ${\mathcal B}(D^+\to K^+ η) = (1.17 \pm 0.10 \pm 0.03)\times 10^{-4}$ and ${\mathcal B}(D^+\to K^+ η^{\prime}) = (1.88 \pm 0.15 \pm 0.11)\times 10^{-4}$, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic. The branching fractions of $D^+\to K^+η$ and $ D^+ \to K^+ η^{\prime}$ are consistent with the world average values. The reported branching fraction of $D^+\to K^+π^0$ deviates with the world average value by 3$σ$.

By analysing $e^+e^-$ annihilation data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 368.48~pb$^{-1}$ collected at the centre-of-mass energies of $\sqrt{s} = 4.918$ and $4.951$~GeV with the BESIII detector, we report the first observation of $Λ_{c}(2595)^{+}$ and $Λ_{c}(2625)^{+}\to Λ^{+}_{c}π^0π^0$ with statistical significances of 7.9$σ$ and 11.8$σ$, respectively.

The absolute branching fractions are determined to be ${\mathcal B}(D^0\to K^0_S K^+K^-π^0 )=( 18.4^{+2.6}_{-2.5}\pm 2.4)\times 10^{-5}$, ${\mathcal B}(D^0\to K^0_S K^0_S K^-π^+ )=( 12.9^{+1.7}_{-1.6}\pm 2.5)\times 10^{-5}$, ${\mathcal B}(D^0\to K^0_S K^0_S K^+π^-)=(5.7^{+1.2}_{-1.1}\pm 1.3)\times 10^{-5}$, ${\mathcal B}(D^0\to K^+K^-K^-π^+ )=(17.4^{+1.8}_{-1.7}\pm { 2.2})\times 10^{-5}$, and ${\mathcal B}(D^+\to K^0_S K^+K^-π^+)=(13.8^{+2.4}_{-2.2}\pm 2.5)\times 10^{-5}$. Furthermore, significant $ϕ$ signals are found in the decay channels involving $K^+K^-$ pair, and the corresponding branching fractions are measured as ${\mathcal B}(D^0\to ϕK^0_Sπ^0 )=( 22.7^{+5.4}_{-5.1}\pm 3.7)\times 10^{-5}$, ${\mathcal B}(D^0\to ϕK^-π^+ )=(25.2^{+3.5}_{-3.3}\pm 4.6)\times 10^{-5}$, ${\mathcal B}(D^+\to ϕK^0_Sπ^+)=(16.5 ^{+6.0}_{-5.3}\pm 2.6 )\times 10^{-5}$.

Observation of $D^+\to K^0_Sπ^0μ^+ν_μ$, Test of Lepton Flavor Universality and First Angular Analysis of $D^+\to \bar{K}^\ast(892)^0\ell^+ν_\ell$

We report a study of the semileptonic decays $D^+\to K_S^0π^0\ell^+ν_\ell$ ($\ell = e, μ$) based on $20.3\,\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ collision data collected at the center-of-mass energy of 3.773 GeV with the BESIII detector. The $D^+\to K_S^0π^0μ^+ν_μ$ decay is observed for the first time, with a branching fraction of $(0.896\pm0.017_{\rm stat}\pm0.008_{\rm syst})\%$, and the branching fraction of $D^+\to K_S^0π^0e^+ν_e$ is determined with the improved precision as $(0.943\pm0.012_{\rm stat}\pm0.010_{\rm syst})\%$. From the analysis of the dynamics, we observe that the dominant $\bar{K}^\ast(892)^0$ component is accompanied by an $S$-wave contribution, which accounts for $(7.10 \pm 0.68_{\rm stat} \pm 0.41_{\rm syst})\%$ of the total decay rate of the $μ^+$ channel and $(6.39 \pm 0.17_{\rm stat} \pm 0.14_{\rm syst})\%$ of the $e^+$ channel. Assuming a single-pole dominance parameterization, the hadronic form factor ratios are extracted to be $r_V=V(0)/A_1(0)=1.42 \pm\, 0.03_{\rm stat} \pm\, 0.02_{\rm syst}$ and $r_2=A_2(0)/A_1(0)=0.75 \pm\, 0.03_{\rm stat} \pm\, 0.01_{\rm syst}$. Based on the first comprehensive angular and the decay-rate $CP$ asymmetry analysis, the full set of averaged angular and $CP$ asymmetry observables are measured as a function of the momentum-transfer squared; they are consistent with expectations from the Standard Model. No evidence for violation of $μ-e$ lepton-flavor universality is observed in either the full range or the five chosen bins of momentum-transfer squared.
