Cross section measurements of $e^{+}e^{-} \to K^{+}K^{-}K^{+}K^{-} $ and $ ϕK^{+}K^{-}$ at center-of-mass energies from 2.10 to 3.08 GeV

We measure the Born cross sections of the process $e^{+}e^{-} \to K^{+}K^{-}K^{+}K^{-}$ at center-of-mass (c.m.) energies, $\sqrt{s}$, between 2.100 and 3.080 GeV. The data were collected using the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider. An enhancement at $\sqrt{s}= 2.232$ GeV is observed, very close to the $e^{+}e^{-} \to Λ\overlineΛ$ production threshold. A similar enhancement at the same c.m. energy is observed in the $e^{+}e^{-} \to ϕK^{+}K^{-}$ cross section. The energy dependence of the $K^{+}K^{-}K^{+}K^{-}$ and $ϕK^{+}K^{-}$ cross sections differs significantly from that of $e^{+}e^{-} \to ϕπ^{+}π^{-}$.

Search for the decay $η'\toγγη$

Using a data sample of $1.31\times10^{9} ~J/ψ$ events collected with the BESIII detector, a search for $η'\toγγη$ via $J/ψ\toγη'$ is performed for the first time. No significant $η'$ signal is observed in the $γγη$ invariant mass spectrum, and the %upper limit of the branching fraction of $η'\toγγη$ is determined to be less than $1.33 \times 10^{-4}$ at the 90$\%$ confidence level.

Study of the Decays $D_{s}^{+} \rightarrow K_{S}^{0}K^{+}$ and $K_{L}^{0}K^{+}$

Using an $e^{+}e^{-}$ annihilation data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $3.19~\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ and collected at a center-of-mass energy $\sqrt{s} = 4.178~\mathrm{GeV}$ with the BESIII detector, we measure the absolute branching fractions $\mathcal{B}(D_{s}^{+} \rightarrow K_{S}^{0}K^{+}) = (1.425\pm0.038_{\rm stat.}\pm0.031_{\rm syst.})\%$ and $\mathcal{B}(D_{s}^{+} \rightarrow K_{L}^{0}K^{+}) =(1.485\pm0.039_{\rm stat.}\pm0.046_{\rm syst.})\%$. The branching fraction of $D_{s}^{+} \rightarrow K_{S}^{0}K^{+}$ is compatible with the world average and that of $D_{s}^{+} \rightarrow K_{L}^{0}K^{+}$ is measured for the first time. We present the first measurement of the $K_{S}^{0}$-$K_{L}^{0}$ asymmetry in the decays $D_{s}^{+} \rightarrow K_{S,L}^{0}K^{+}$, and $R(D_{s}^{+} \rightarrow K_{S,L}^{0}K^{+})=\frac{\mathcal{B}(D_{s}^{+} \rightarrow K_{S}^{0}K^{+}) -\mathcal{B}(D_{s}^{+} \rightarrow K_{L}^{0}K^{+})}{\mathcal{B}(D_{s}^{+} \rightarrow K_{S}^{0}K^{+}) +\mathcal{B}(D_{s}^{+} \rightarrow K_{L}^{0}K^{+})}= (-2.1\pm1.9_{\rm stat.}\pm1.6_{\rm syst.})\%$. In addition, we measure the direct $CP$ asymmetries $A_{\rm CP}(D_{s}^{\pm} \rightarrow K_{S}^{0}K^{\pm}) = (0.6\pm2.8_{\rm stat.}\pm0.6_{\rm syst.})\%$ and $A_{\rm CP}(D_{s}^{\pm} \rightarrow K_{L}^{0}K^{\pm}) = (-1.1\pm2.6_{\rm stat.}\pm0.6_{\rm syst.})\%$.

Study of the process $e^+ e^- \to p \bar p$ via initial state radiation at BESIII

The Born cross section for the process $e^+ e^- \to p \bar p $ is measured using the initial state radiation technique with an undetected photon. This analysis is based on datasets corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 7.5 fb$^{-1}$, collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider at center of mass energies between 3.773 and 4.600 GeV. The Born cross section for the process $e^+ e^- \to p \bar p $ and the proton effective form factor are determined in the $p\bar p$ invariant mass range between 2.0 and 3.8 GeV/$c^2$ divided into 30 intervals. The proton form factor ratio ($|G_E|/|G_M|$) is measured in 3 intervals of the $p\bar p$ invariant mass between 2.0 and 3.0 GeV/$c^2$.

Measurements of Weak Decay Asymmetries of $Λ_c^+\to pK_S^0$, $Λπ^+$, $Σ^+π^0$, and $Σ^0π^+$

Using $e^+e^-\toΛ_c^+\barΛ_c^-$ production from a 567 pb$^{-1}$ data sample collected by BESIII at 4.6 GeV, a full angular analysis is carried out simultaneously on the four decay modes of $Λ_c^+\to pK_S^0$, $Λπ^+$, $Σ^+π^0$, and $Σ^0π^+$. For the first time, the $Λ_c^+$ transverse polarization is studied in unpolarized $e^+e^-$ collisions, where a non-zero effect is observed with a statistical significance of 2.1$σ$. The decay asymmetry parameters of the $Λ_c^+$ weak hadronic decays into $pK_S^0$, $Λπ^+$, $Σ^+π^0$ and $Σ^0π^+$ are measured to be $0.18\pm0.43(\rm{stat})\pm0.14(\rm{syst})$, $-0.80\pm0.11(\rm{stat})\pm0.02(\rm{syst})$, $-0.57\pm0.10(\rm{stat})\pm0.07(\rm{syst})$, and $-0.73\pm0.17(\rm{stat})\pm0.07(\rm{syst})$, respectively. In comparison with previous results, the measurements for the $Λπ^+$ and $Σ^+π^0$ modes are consistent but with improved precision, while the parameters for the $pK_S^0$ and $Σ^0π^+$ modes are measured for the first time.

Cross section measurements of $e^+ e^-\toωχ_{c0}$ from $\sqrt{s}=$4.178 to 4.278 GeV

The cross section of the process $e^+e^- \rightarrow ωχ_{c0}$ is measured at center-of-mass energies from $\sqrt{s} =$ 4.178 to 4.278 GeV using a data sample of 7 fb$^{-1}$ collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII storage ring. The dependence of the cross section on $\sqrt{s}$ shows a resonant structure with mass of $(4218.5\pm1.6(\text{stat.})\pm4.0(\text{syst.}))$ MeV/$c^2$ and width of $(28.2\pm3.9(\text{stat.})\pm1.6(\text{syst.}))$ MeV, respectively. This observation confirms and improves upon the result of a previous study. The angular distribution of the $e^+e^- \rightarrow ωχ_{c0}$ process is extracted for the first time.

Density Functional Methods for the Magnetism of Transition Metals: SCAN in Relation to Other Functionals

We report tests of various density functionals for ferromagnetic, Fe, Co and Ni with a focus on characterizing the behavior of the so-called strongly constrained and appropriately normed (SCAN) functional. It is found that SCAN is closer in behavior to functionals that yield localized behavior, such as hybrid functionals, than other semilocal functionals that are tested. The results are understood in terms of a tendency to differentiate orbitals, favoring integer occupation, which is necessary for a correct description of atomic systems, but inappropriate for the open shell metallic ferromagnetic metals studied here.

Search for the decay $D_s^+\rightarrow γe^+ν_e$

A search for the rare radiative leptonic decay $D_s^+\toγe^+ν_e$ is performed for the first time using electron-positron collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.19 fb$^{-1}$, collected with the BESIII detector at a center-of-mass energy of 4.178 GeV. No evidence for the $D_s^+\toγe^+ν_e$ decay is seen and an upper limit of $\mathcal B(D_s^+\toγe^+ν_e)<1.3\times 10^{-4}$ is set on the partial branching fraction at a 90\% confidence level for radiative photon energies $E_γ^*>0.01$~GeV.

Complete measurement of $Λ$ electromagnetic form factors

The exclusive process $e^+e^-\rightarrowΛ\barΛ$, with $Λ\to pπ^-$ and $\barΛ \to \bar{p}π^+$, has been studied at $\sqrt{s} =$ 2.396 GeV for measurement of the $Λ$ electric and magnetic form factors, $G_E$ and $G_M$. A data sample, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 66.9 pb$^{-1}$, was collected with the BESIII detector for this purpose. A multi-dimensional analysis with a complete decomposition of the spin structure of the reaction enables a determination of the modulus of the ratio $R=|G_E/G_M|$ and, for the first time for any baryon, the relative phase $ΔΦ=Φ_E-Φ_M$. The resulting values are obtained using the recent and most precise measured value of the asymmetry parameter $α_Λ$ = $0.750~\pm~0.010$ to be $R~=~0.96\pm0.14~(\rm stat.)\pm~0.02~(\rm sys.)$ and $ΔΦ=37^{\mathrm{o}}\pm~12^{\mathrm{o}}~(\rm stat.)\pm~6^{\mathrm{o}}~(\rm sys.)$, respectively. In addition, the cross section is measured with unprecedented precision to be $σ= 118.7~\pm~5.3~(\rm stat.)\pm~5.1~(\rm sys.)$ pb, which corresponds to an effective form factor of $|G|=0.123~\pm~0.003~(\rm stat.)\pm~0.003~(\rm sys.)$. The contribution from two-photon exchange is found to be negligible. Our result enables the first complete determination of baryon time-like electromagnetic form factors.

Observation of $e^{+}e^{-}\rightarrow π^{+}π^{-}ψ(3770)$ and $D_{1}(2420)^{0}\bar{D}^{0} + c.c.$

Several intermediate states of the reaction channels $e^{+}e^{-} \rightarrow π^{+} π^{-} D^{0} \bar{D}^{0}$ and $e^{+}e^{-} \rightarrow π^{+} π^{-} D^{+}D^{-}$ are studied using the data samples collected with the BESIII detector at center-of-mass energies above 4.08 GeV. For the first time in this final state, a $ψ(3770)$ signal is seen in the $D\bar{D}$ invariant mass spectrum, with a statistical significance of $5.2σ$ at $\sqrt{s} = 4.42$ GeV. There is also evidence for this resonance at $\sqrt{s}$ = 4.26 and 4.36 GeV with statistical significance of 3.2$σ$ and 3.3$σ$, respectively. In addition, the Born cross section of $e^{+}e^{-}\to π^{+}π^{-}ψ(3770)$ is measured. The proposed heavy-quark-spin-symmetry partner of the $X(3872)$, the state $X_{2}(4013)$, is also searched for in the $D\bar{D}$ invariant mass spectra. No obvious signal is found. The upper limit of the Born cross section of the process $e^{+}e^{-}\to ρ^{0}X_{2}(4013)$ combined with the branching fraction is measured. Also, the processes $e^{+}e^{-}\to D_{1}(2420)\bar{D} + c.c.$ are investigated. The neutral mode with $D_{1}(2420)^{0}\to D^{0}π^{+}π^{-}$ is reported with statistical significance of 7.4$σ$ at $\sqrt{s} = 4.42$ GeV for the first time, and evidence with statistical significance of 3.2$σ$ and 3.3$σ$ at $\sqrt{s}$ = 4.36 and 4.60 GeV is seen, respectively. No evident signal for the process $e^{+}e^{-}\to D_{1}(2420)^{0}\bar{D}^{0} + c.c., D_{1}(2420)^{0}\to D^{*+}π^{-}$ is reported. Evidence for $e^{+}e^{-}\to D_{1}(2420)^{+}D^{-} +~c.c., D_{1}(2420)^{+}\to D^{+}π^{+}π^{-}$ is reported with statistical significance of 3.1$σ$ and 3.0$σ$ at $\sqrt{s}$ = 4.36 and 4.42 GeV, respectively.

Amplitude Analysis and Branching Fraction Measurement of $D^0\rightarrow K^-π^+π^0π^0$

Utilizing the dataset corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $2.93$ fb$^{-1}$ at $\sqrt{s}=3.773$ GeV collected by the BESIII detector, we report the first amplitude analysis and branching fraction measurement of the $D^0\rightarrow K^-π^+π^0π^0$ decay. We investigate the sub-structures and determine the relative fractions and the phases among the different intermediate processes. Our results are used to provide an accurate detection efficiency and allow measurement of ${\cal B}(D^0\rightarrow K^-π^+π^0π^0) \,=\, (8.86 \pm 0.13(\text{stat}) \pm 0.19(\text{syst}))\%$.

Amplitude analysis of $D_{s}^{+} \rightarrow π^{+}π^{0}η$ and first observation of the pure $W$-annihilation decays $D_{s}^{+} \rightarrow a_{0}(980)^{+}π^{0}$ and $D_{s}^{+} \rightarrow a_{0}(980)^{0}π^{+}$

We present the first amplitude analysis of the decay $D^{+}_{s} \rightarrow π^{+}π^{0}η$. We use an $e^{+}e^{-}$ collision data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.19~${\mbox{\,fb}^{-1}}$ collected with the BESIII detector at a center-of-mass energy of $4.178$ GeV. We observe for the first time the pure $W$-annihilation decays $D_{s}^{+} \rightarrow a_{0}(980)^{+}π^{0}$ and $D_{s}^{+} \rightarrow a_{0}(980)^{0}π^{+}$. We measure the absolute branching fractions $\mathcal{B}(D_{s}^{+} \rightarrow a_{0}(980)^{+(0)}π^{0^(+)}, a_{0}(980)^{+(0)} \to π^{+(0)}η) = (1.46\pm0.15_{\rm stat.}\pm0.23_{\rm sys.})$\%, which is larger than the branching fractions of other measured pure $W$-annihilation decays by at least one order of magnitude. In addition, we measure the branching fraction of $D_{s}^{+} \rightarrow π^{+}π^{0}η$ with significantly improved precision.

Observation of $ψ(3686)\to p\bar{p}ϕ$

Using a data sample of $4.48\times10^{8}$ $\psip$ events collected with the BESIII detector, we present a first observation of $ψ(3686)\to p\bar{p}ϕ$, and we measure its branching fraction to be $[6.06\pm0.38 ($stat.$) \pm 0.48 ($syst.$)]\times10^{-6}$. In contrast to the earlier discovery of a threshold enhancement in the $p\bar{p}$-mass spectrum of the channel $J/ψ\toγp\bar p$, denoted as $X(p\bar{p})$, we do not find a similar enhancement in $ψ(3686)\to p\bar{p}ϕ$. An upper limit of $1.82\times10^{-7}$ at the $90\%$ confidence level on the branching fraction of $ψ(3686)\to X(p\bar{p})ϕ\to p\bar{p}ϕ$ is obtained.

The decays $χ_{c1,2} \rightarrow μ^{+}μ^{-}J/ψ$ are observed, and the corresponding branching fractions are measured to be $\mathcal{B}(χ_{c1} \rightarrow μ^{+}μ^{-}J/ψ) = (2.51 \pm 0.18 \pm 0.20)\times10^{-4}$ and $\mathcal{B}(χ_{c2} \rightarrow μ^{+}μ^{-}J/ψ) = (2.33 \pm 0.18 \pm 0.29)\times10^{-4}$, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second one systematic. No significant $χ_{c0} \rightarrow μ^{+}μ^{-}J/ψ$ decay is observed, and the upper limit on the branching fraction is determined to be $2.0\times10^{-5}$ at 90% confidence level. Also, we present a study of di-muon invariant mass dependent transition form factor for the decays $χ_{c1,2} \rightarrow μ^{+}μ^{-}J/ψ$.

Determination of the pseudoscalar decay constant $f_{D_s^+}$ via $D_s^+\toμ^+ν_μ$

Using a $3.19~\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ data sample collected at an $e^+e^-$ center-of-mass energy of $E_{\rm cm}=4.178$ GeV with the BESIII detector, we measure the branching fraction of the leptonic decay $D_s^+\toμ^+ν_μ$ to be $\mathcal{B}_{D_s^+\toμ^+ν_μ}=(5.49\pm0.16_{\rm stat.}\pm0.15_{\rm syst.})\times10^{-3}$. Combining our branching fraction with the masses of the $D_s^+$ and $μ^+$ and the lifetime of the $D_s^+$, we determine $f_{D_s^+}|V_{cs}|=246.2\pm3.6_{\rm stat.}\pm3.5_{\rm syst.}~\mathrm{MeV}$. Using the $c\to s$ quark mixing matrix element $|V_{cs}|$ determined from a global standard model fit, we evaluate the $D_s^+$ decay constant $f_{D_s^+}=252.9\pm3.7_{\rm stat.}\pm3.6_{\rm syst.}$\,MeV. Alternatively, using the value of $f_{D_s^+}$ calculated by lattice quantum chromodynamics, we find $|V_{cs}| = 0.985\pm0.014_{\rm stat.}\pm0.014_{\rm syst.}$. These values of $\mathcal{B}_{D_s^+\toμ^+ν_μ}$, $f_{D_s^+}|V_{cs}|$, $f_{D_s^+}$ and $|V_{cs}|$ are each the most precise results to date.

Using a total of $9.0~\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ collision data with center-of-mass energies between 4.15 and 4.30 GeV collected by the BESIII detector, we search for the processes $e^+e^-\to γX(3872)$ with $X(3872)\toπ^0χ_{cJ}$ for $J=0,1,2$. We report the first observation of $X(3872)\toπ^{0}χ_{c1}$, a new decay mode of the $X(3872)$, with a statistical significance of more than 5$σ$. Normalizing to the previously established process $e^+e^-\to γX(3872)$ with $X(3872)\toπ^+π^-J/ψ$, we find ${\cal B}(X(3872) \to π^0 χ_{c1})/{\cal B}(X(3872) \to π^+π^- J/ψ) = 0.88^{+0.33}_{-0.27}\pm0.10$, where the first error is statistical and the second is systematic. We set 90% confidence level upper limits on the corresponding ratios for the decays to $π^0χ_{c0}$ and $π^0χ_{c2}$ of 19 and 1.1, respectively.
