Search for $h_{c}\rightarrowπ^+π^-J/ψ$ via $ψ(3686)\rightarrow π^0π^+π^-J/ψ$

Using a data sample of $448.1\times10^6$ $ψ(3686)$ events collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII, we perform search for the hadronic transition $h_c\rightarrowπ^+π^-J/ψ$ via $ψ(3686)\rightarrowπ^0h_c$. No signals of the transition are observed, and the upper limit on the product branching fraction $\mathcal{B}(ψ(3686)\rightarrowπ^0h_c)\mathcal{B}(h_c\rightarrowπ^+π^-J/ψ)$ at the 90% confidence level is determined to be $2.0\times10^{-6}$. This is the most stringent upper limit to date.

Study of the decays $D^+\rightarrowη^{(\prime)} e^+ν_{e}$

The charm semileptonic decays $D^+\toηe^+ν_{e}$ and $D^+\toη'e^+ν_{e}$ are studied with a sample of $e^+e^-$ collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.93 fb$^{-1}$ collected at $\sqrt{s}$ = 3.773 GeV with the BESIII detector. We measure the branching fractions for $D^+\toηe^+ν_{e}$ to be $(10.74\pm0.81\pm0.51)\times10^{-4}$, and for $D^+\toη'e^+ν_{e}$ to be $(1.91\pm0.51\pm0.13)\times10^{-4}$, where the uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively. In addition, we perform a measurement of the form factor in the decay $D^+\toηe^+ν_{e}$. All the results are consistent with those obtained by the CLEO-c experiment.

Measurement of absolute branching fraction of the inclusive decay $Λ_{c}^{+} \to Λ+ X$

Based on an $e^+e^-$ collision data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 567$\,\rm{pb}^{-1}$ taken at the center-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s} = 4.6$ GeV with the BESIII detector, we measure the absolute branching fraction of the inclusive decay $Λ_{c}^{+} \to Λ+ X$ to be $\mathcal{B}(Λ_{c}^{+} \to Λ+ X)=(38.2^{+2.8}_{-2.2}\pm0.8)\%$ using the double-tag method, where $X$ refers to any possible final state particles. In addition, we search for direct CP violation in the charge asymmetry of this inclusive decay for the first time, and obtain $\mathcal{A}_{CP} \equiv \frac{\mathcal{B}(Λ_{c}^{+} \to Λ+ X)-\mathcal{B}(\barΛ_{c}^{-} \to \barΛ + X)}{\mathcal{B}(Λ_{c}^{+} \to Λ+ X)+\mathcal{B}(\barΛ_{c}^{-} \to \barΛ + X)} = (2.1^{+7.0}_{-6.6}\pm1.4)\%$, a statistically limited result with no evidence of CP violation.

Search for Baryon and Lepton Number Violation in $J/ψ\toΛ_c^+e^-+c.c.$

Using $1.31\times10^9$ $J/ψ$ events collected by the BESIII detector at the Beijing Electron Positron Collider, we search for the process $J/ψ\toΛ_c^+e^-+c.c.$ for the first time. In this process, both baryon and lepton number conservation is violated. No signal is found and the upper limit on the branching fraction $\mathcal{B}(J/ψ\toΛ_c^+e^-+c.c.)$ is set to be $6.9\times10^{-8}$ at the 90\% Confidence Level.

Observation of the Semileptonic Decay $D^0 \to a_0(980)^- e^+ ν_e$ and Evidence for $D^+ \to a_0(980)^0 e^+ ν_e$

Using an $e^+e^-$ collision data sample of 2.93 fb$^{-1}$ collected at a center-of-mass energy of 3.773 GeV by the BESIII detector at BEPCII, we report the observation of $D^0 \to a_0(980)^- e^+ ν_e$ and evidence for $D^+ \to a_0(980)^0 e^+ ν_e~$ with significances of $6.4σ$ and $2.9σ$, respectively. The absolute branching fractions are determined to be $\mathcal{B}(D^0 \to a_0(980)^- e^+ ν_e)\times\mathcal{B}(a_0(980)^- \to ηπ^-) = (1.33_{-0.29}^{+0.33}({\rm stat})\pm0.09({\rm syst}))\times10^{-4}~$ and $\mathcal{B}(D^+ \to a_0(980)^0 e^+ ν_e)\times\mathcal{B}(a_0(980)^0 \to ηπ^0) = (1.66_{-0.66}^{+0.81}({\rm stat})\pm0.11({\rm syst}))\times10^{-4}~$. An upper limit of $\mathcal{B}(D^+ \to a_0(980)^0 e^+ ν_e)\times\mathcal{B}(a_0(980)^0 \to ηπ^0)<3.0\times10^{-4}~$ is also determined at the $90\%~$ confidence level.

Observation of $e^{+}e^{-} \to ϕχ_{c1}$ and $ϕχ_{c2}$ at $\sqrt{s}$=4.600 GeV

Using a data sample collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII storage ring at a center-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s}=4.600$ GeV, we search for the production of $e^{+}e^{-} \to ϕχ_{c0,1,2}$ and the charmonium-like state $Y(4140)$ in the radiative transition $e^{+}e^{-} \to γY(4140)$ with $Y(4140)$ subsequently decaying into $ϕJ/ψ$. The processes $e^{+}e^{-} \to ϕχ_{c1}$ and $ϕχ_{c2}$ are observed for the first time, each with a statistical significance of more than 10σ, and the Born cross sections are measured to be $(4.2^{+1.7}_{-1.0}\pm 0.3)$ pb and $(6.7^{+3.4}_{-1.7}\pm 0.5)$ pb, respectively, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic. No significant signals are observed for $e^{+}e^{-} \to ϕχ_{c0}$ and $e^{+}e^{-} \to γY(4140)$ and upper limits on the Born cross sections at $90\%$ confidence level are provided at $\sqrt{s}=4.600$ GeV.

Measurements of the Branching Fractions of the Singly-Cabibbo-Suppressed Decays $D^0\toωη$, $η^{(\prime)}π^0$ and $η^{(\prime)}η$

By analyzing a data sample of 2.93 fb$^{-1}$ collected at $\sqrt s=$ 3.773 GeV with the BESIII detector operated at the BEPCII storage rings, we measure the branching fractions ${\mathcal B}(D^0\toωη)=(2.15\pm0.17_{\rm stat.}\pm0.15_{\rm sys.})\times 10^{-3}$, ${\mathcal B}(D^0\toηπ^0)=(0.58\pm0.05_{\rm stat.}\pm0.05_{\rm sys.})\times 10^{-3}$, ${\mathcal B}(D^0\toη^\primeπ^0)=(0.93\pm0.11_{\rm stat.}\pm0.09_{\rm sys.})\times 10^{-3}$, ${\mathcal B}(D^0\toηη)=(2.20\pm0.07_{\rm stat.}\pm0.06_{\rm sys.})\times 10^{-3}$ and ${\mathcal B}(D^0\toη^\primeη)=(0.94\pm0.25_{\rm stat.}\pm0.11_{\rm sys.})\times 10^{-3}$. We note that ${\mathcal B}(D^0\to ωη)$ is measured for the first time and that ${\mathcal B}(D^0\to ηη)$ is measured with much improved precision.

Study of two-photon decays of pseudoscalar mesons via $J/ψ$ radiative decays

Using a sample of $4.48\times10^{8}$ $ψ(3686)$ events collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, we study the two-photon decays of the pseudoscalar mesons $π^0$, $η$, $η^\prime$, $η(1405)$, $η(1475)$, $η(1760)$, and $X(1835)$ in $J/ψ$ radiative decays using $ψ(3686)\toπ^{+}π^{-}J/ψ$ events. The $π^0$, $η$ and $η^\prime$ mesons are clearly observed in the two-photon mass spectra, and the branching fractions are determined to be $B(J/ψ\toγπ^{0}\to3γ)=(3.57\pm0.12\pm0.16)\times10^{-5}$, $B(J/ψ\toγη\to3γ)=(4.42\pm0.04\pm0.18)\times10^{-4}$, and $B(J/ψ\toγη'\to3γ)=(1.26\pm0.02\pm0.05)\times10^{-4}$, where the first errors are statistical and the second systematic. No clear signal for $η(1405)$, $η(1475)$, $η(1760)$ or $X(1835)$ is observed in the two-photon mass spectra, and upper limits at the $90\%$ confidence level on the product branching fractions are obtained.

Measurements of absolute branching fractions for $D$ mesons decays into two pseudoscalar mesons

Using a data sample of $e^+e^-$ collision data with an integrated luminosity of 2.93 fb$^{-1}$ taken at the center-of-mass energy $\sqrt s= 3.773$~GeV with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII storage rings, we measure the absolute branching fractions of the two-body hadronic decays $D^+\to π^+π^0$, $K^+ π^0$, $π^+ η$, $K^+η$, $π^+η^\prime$, $K^+η^\prime$, $K_S^0 π^+$, $K_S^0 K^+$, and $D^0\to π^+ π^-$, $K^+ K^-$, $K^\mp π^\pm$, $K_S^0 π^0$, $K_S^0 η$, $K_S^0 η^\prime$. Our results are consistent with previous measurements within uncertainties. Among them, the branching fractions for $D^+\toπ^+π^0$, $K^+π^0$, $π^+η$, $π^+η^\prime$, $K_S^0 π^+$, $K_S^0 K^+$ and $D^0 \to K_S^0 π^0$, $K_S^0 η$, $K_S^0 η^\prime$ are determined with improved precision compared to the world average values.

Observation of $e^{+}e^{-} \rightarrow K\bar{K}J/ψ$ at center-of-mass energies from 4.189 to 4.600 GeV

We investigate the process $e^{+}e^{-} \rightarrow K\bar{K}J/ψ$ at center-of-mass energies from 4.189 to 4.600 GeV using 4.7 fb$^{-1}$ of data collected by the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider. The Born cross sections for the reactions $e^{+}e^{-} \rightarrow K^{+}K^{-}J/ψ$ and $K_{S}^{0} K_{S}^{0} J/ψ$ are measured as a function of center-of-mass energy. The energy dependence of the cross section for $e^{+}e^{-} \rightarrow K^{+}K^{-}J/ψ$ is shown to differ from that for $π^{+}π^{-}J/ψ$ in the region around the $Y(4260)$. In addition, there is evidence for a structure around 4.5 GeV in the $e^{+}e^{-} \rightarrow K^{+}K^{-}J/ψ$ cross section that is not present in $π^{+}π^{-}J/ψ$.

Measurement of the matrix elements for the decays $η^{\prime}\rightarrowηπ^+π^-$ and $η^{\prime}\rightarrowηπ^0π^0$

Based on a sample of $1.31\times10^9$ $J/ψ$ events collected with the BESIII detector, the matrix elements for the decays $η^{\prime}\toηπ^{+}π^{-}$ and $η^{\prime}\toηπ^{0}π^{0}$ are determined using 351,016 $η^{\prime}\to(η\toγγ)π^+π^-$ and 56,249 $η^{\prime}\to(η\toγγ)π^0π^0$ events with background levels less than 1\%. Two commonly used representations are used to describe the Dalitz plot density. We find that an assumption of a linear amplitude does not describe the data well. A small deviation of the obtained matrix elements between $η^{\prime}\toηπ^{+}π^{-}$ and $η^{\prime}\toηπ^{0}π^{0}$ is probably caused by the mass difference between charged and neutral pions or radiative corrections. No cusp structure in $η^{\prime}\toηπ^{0}π^{0}$ is observed.

Study of $η(1475)$ and $X(1835)$ in radiative $J/ψ$ decays to $γϕ$

The decay $J/ψ\rightarrow γγϕ$ is studied using a sample of $1.31 \times10^{9}$ $J/ψ$ events collected with the BESIII detector. Two structures around 1475 MeV/c$^2$ and 1835 MeV/c$^2$ are observed in the $γϕ$ invariant mass spectrum for the first time. With a fit on the $γϕ$ invariant mass, which takes into account the interference between the two structures, and a simple analysis of the angular distribution, the structure around 1475 MeV/c$^2$ is found to favor an assignment as the $η(1475)$ and the mass and width for the structure around 1835 MeV/c$^2$ are consistent with the $X(1835)$. The statistical significances of the two structures are $13.5 σ$ and $6.3 σ$, respectively. The results indicate that both $η(1475)$ and $X(1835)$ contain a sizeable $s\bar{s}$ component.

Using a sample of $448.1\times10^{6}$ $ψ(3686)$ events collected with the BESIII detector, a search for the isospin violating decay $η_{c}\toπ^{+}π^{-}π^{0}$ via $ψ(3686)\toγη_{c}$ is presented. No signal is observed, and the upper limit on $\mathcal{B}(ψ(3686)\to γη_{c}\to γπ^{+}π^{-}π^{0} )$ is determined to be $1.6\times10^{-6}$ at the $90\%$ confidence level. In addition, a search for $η(1405)\to f_{0}(980)π^{0}$ in $ψ(3686)$ radiative decays is performed. No signal is observed, and the branching fraction $\mathcal{B}(ψ(3686)\toγη(1405)\to γf_{0}(980)π^{0}\toγπ^+π^-π^0 )$ is calculated to be less than $ 5.0\times10^{-7}$ at the $90\%$ confidence level.

Observation of $χ_{c2}\toη'η'$ and $χ_{c0,2}\toηη'$

Using a sample of $447.9\times 10^6$ $ψ(3686)$ events collected with the BESIII detector in 2009 and 2012, we study the decays $χ_{c0,2}\to$ $η'η'$ and $ηη'$. The decays $χ_{c2}\toη'η'$, $χ_{c0}\toηη'$ and $χ_{c2}\toηη'$ are observed for the first time with statistical significances of $9.6σ$, $13.4σ$ and $7.5σ$, respectively. The branching fractions are determined to be $\mathcal{B}(χ_{c0}\toη'η') =(2.19\pm0.03\pm0.14)\times10^{-3}$, $\mathcal{B}(χ_{c2}\toη'η') = (4.76\pm0.56\pm0.38)\times10^{-5}$, $\mathcal{B}(χ_{c0}\toηη') = (8.92\pm0.84\pm0.65)\times10^{-5}$ and $\mathcal{B}(χ_{c2}\toηη') = (2.27\pm0.43\pm0.25)\times10^{-5}$, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic. The precision for the measurement of $\mathcal{B}(χ_{c0}\toη'η')$ is significantly improved compared to previous measurements. Based on the measured branching fractions, the role played by the doubly and singly Okubo-Zweig-Iizuka disconnected transition amplitudes for $χ_{c0,2}$ decays into pseudoscalar meson pairs can be clarified.

Branching fraction measurement of $J/ψ\rightarrow K_S K_L$ and search for $J/ψ\rightarrow K_S K_S$

Using a sample of $1.31 \times 10^{9}$ $J/ψ$ events collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, we study the decays of $J/ψ\rightarrow K_S K_L$ and $K_S K_S$. The branching fraction of$J/ψ\rightarrow K_S K_L$ is determined to be ${\cal B}(J/ψ\rightarrow K_S K_L)=(1.93\pm0.01~(\rm{stat.})\pm0.05~(\rm{syst.}))\times10^{-4}$, which significantly improves on previous measurements. No clear signal is observed for the $J/ψ\rightarrow K_S K_S$ process, and the upper limit at the 95% confidence level for its branching fraction is determined to be ${\cal B}(J/ψ\rightarrow K_S K_S)<1.4\times10^{-8}$, which improves on the previous searches by two orders in magnitude and reaches the order of the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen expectation.

Measurement of $e^{+}e^{-} \to π^{0}π^{0}ψ(3686)$ at $\sqrt{s}$ from 4.009 to 4.600 GeV and observation of a neutral charmoniumlike structure

Using $e^{+}e^{-}$ collision data collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.2 $fb^{-1}$ at center-of-mass energies ($\sqrt{s}$) from 4.009 to 4.600 GeV, the process $e^{+}e^{-} \to π^{0} π^{0}ψ(3686)$ is studied for the first time. The corresponding Born cross sections are measured and found to be half of those of the reaction $e^{+}e^{-} \to π^{+}π^{-}ψ(3686)$. This is consistent with the expectation from isospin symmetry. Furthermore, the Dalitz plots for $π^{0}π^{0}ψ(3686)$ are accordant with those of $π^{+}π^{-}ψ(3686)$ at all energy points, and a neutral analogue to the structure in $π^\pm ψ(3686)$ around 4040 MeV/$c^{2}$ first observed at $\sqrt{s}$=4.416 GeV is observed in the isospin neutral mode at the same energy.

Our limit on $Br(J/ψ\to D^{0} e^{+}e^{-} +c.c.)$ is more stringent by two orders of magnitude than the previous results, and the $Br(ψ(3686) \to D^{0} e^{+}e^{-} +c.c.)$ is measured for the first time.
