Observation of the Exotic State $π_{1}(1600)$ in $ψ(2S)\rightarrowγχ_{c1},χ_{c1}\rightarrowπ^{+}π^{-}η'$

A partial wave analysis of the process $ψ(2S)\rightarrowγχ_{c1}, χ_{c1}\rightarrowπ^+π^-η^{\prime}$ is performed using $(2712.4\pm14.3)\times10^{6}$ $ψ(2S)$ events collected with the BESIII detector. An isovector state with exotic quantum numbers $J^{PC}=1^{-+}$, denoted as $π_{1}(1600)$, is observed for the first time in the charmonium decay of $χ_{c1}\rightarrowπ_{1}^{\pm}(1600)π^{\mp}$, $π_{1}^{\pm}(1600)\rightarrowπ^{\pm}η^{\prime}$ with a statistical significance over $21σ$. Its mass and width are determined to be $1828 \pm 8 ({\rm stat})^{+11}_{-33}({\rm syst})~\mathrm{MeV}/c^2$ and $638 \pm 26 ({\rm stat})^{+35}_{-86}({\rm syst})~\mathrm{MeV}$, respectively, using a relativistic Breit-Wigner function with a mass-dependent width. The corresponding product of branching fractions is determined to be $\mathcal{B}\left[χ_{c1}\rightarrowπ_{1}(1600)^{\pm}π^{\mp} \right] \times \mathcal{B}\left[π_{1}(1600)^{\pm}\rightarrowπ^{\pm}η^{\prime}\right] = \left( 4.30 \pm 0.14 ({\rm stat})^{+1.04}_{-1.03}({\rm syst})~ \right) \times 10^{-4}$.

Observation of $\barΛp\to K^{+}π^{+}π^{-}π^{0}$ and $\barΛp\to K^{+}π^{+}π^{-}2π^{0}$

Using $(10087 \pm 44) \times 10^6$ $J/ψ$ events collected with the BESIII detector at a center-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s}=3.097$ GeV, the antihyperon-nucleon annihilation processes $\barΛ p \to K^+ π^+ π^- + kπ^0$ ($k=1,2,3$) are studied at an incident $\barΛ$ momentum of approximately 1.074 GeV/$c$. The reactions $\barΛ p \to K^+ π^+ π^- π^0$ and $\barΛ p \to K^+ π^+ π^- 2π^0$ are observed for the first time, with corresponding cross sections $σ_{\barΛ p \to K^+ π^+ π^- π^0} = 8.5^{+1.2}_{-1.1} (\rm{stat.}) \pm 0.4 (\rm {syst.})$ mb and $σ_{\barΛ p \to K^+ π^+ π^- 2π^0} = 7.9^{+1.9}_{-1.7} \pm 0.4$ mb. No significant signal is found for $\barΛ p \to K^+ π^+ π^- 3π^0$, and an upper limit of 7.2 mb is set at a 90\% confidence level. An evidence for the $K^{*}(892)^+$ resonance is seen in the $K^+π^0$ invariant mass spectrum $M_{K^+π^0}$ for $k=1$, and the corresponding cross section for $\barΛ p \to K^{*}(892)^+ π^+ π^-$ is measured to be $σ_{\barΛ p \to K^{*}(892)^+ π^+ π^-} = 12.5^{+3.8}_{-3.4} \pm 1.2$ mb. Owing to the limited statistics, possible interference effects are not considered. These findings offer crucial input to deepen our understanding of the antihyperon-nucleon interactions.

Measurement of the branching fractions of $χ_{cJ} \to π^{+}π^{-}π^{0}π^{0}$ via $ψ(3686) \to γχ_{cJ}$

Using $(2712.4\pm14.3)\times 10^6$ $ψ(3686)$ events collected with the BESIII detector operating at BEPCII, the branching fractions of $χ_{cJ}\toπ^+π^-π^0π^0$ ($J=0,~1,~2$) are measured via the radiative transition $ψ(3686)\toγχ_{cJ}$. The results are $\mathcal{B}(χ_{c0} \to π^{+}π^{-}π^{0}π^{0}) = (3.10 \pm 0.01 \pm 0.14) \times 10^{-2}$, $\mathcal{B}(χ_{c1} \to π^{+}π^{-}π^{0}π^{0}) = (1.16 \pm 0.01 \pm 0.05) \times 10^{-2}$, and $\mathcal{B}(χ_{c2} \to π^{+}π^{-}π^{0}π^{0}) = (1.92 \pm 0.01 \pm 0.08) \times 10^{-2}$, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic. The dominant intermediate states are found to be $χ_{cJ}\toρ^+ρ^-$. These results supersede the previous most precise measurements and provide significantly improved precision.

Measurement of the CKM angle $γ$ in $B^{\pm} \rightarrow D(\rightarrow K^{0}_{\rm S} h^{\prime+}h^{\prime-})h^{\pm}$ decays with a novel approach

A measurement of the CKM angle $γ$ and related strong-phase parameters is performed using a novel, model-independent approach in ${B^{\pm}\rightarrow D(\rightarrow K^{0}_{\rm S} h^{\prime+}h^{\prime-}) h^{\pm}}$ decays, where $h^{(\prime)} \equiv π, K$. The analysis uses a joint data sample of electron-positron collisions collected by the BESIII experiment at the Beijing Electron-Positron Collider II during 2010--2011 and 2021--2022, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 8 fb$^{-1}$, and proton-proton collisions collected by the LHCb experiment at the Large Hadron Collider during 2011--2018, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 9 fb$^{-1}$. The two datasets are analyzed simultaneously by applying per-event weights based on the amplitude variation over the $D$-decay phase space to enhance the sensitivity to $C\!P$-violating observables. The CKM angle $γ$ is determined to be $γ= (71.3\pm 5.0)^{\circ}$, which constitutes the most precise single measurement to date.

Precise measurement of the CKM angle $γ$ with a novel approach

A measurement of the CKM angle $γ$ is performed by applying a novel, unbinned, model-independent approach to datasets of electron-positron collisions collected by the BESIII experiment and proton-proton collisions by the LHCb experiment, corresponding to integrated luminosities of 8 fb$^{-1}$ and 9 fb$^{-1}$, respectively. The $C\!P$-violating phase $γ$ is determined from ${B^{\pm}\rightarrow D(\rightarrow K_{\rm S}^{0} h^{\prime+}h^{\prime-}) h^{\pm}}$ decays in LHCb data, where $h^{(\prime)}$ is either a pion or kaon, while the corresponding strong-phase parameters are measured using doubly tagged ${D\rightarrow K_{\rm S/L}^0 h^{\prime+} h^{\prime-}}$ decays in the quantum-correlated $D\overline{D}$ system present in BESIII data. A joint fit to both datasets, which allows for a simultaneous determination of the associated $C\!P$-violating observables and strong-phase parameters, yields ${γ= (71.3\pm 5.0)^{\circ}}$. The result is the most precise to date and consistent with previous measurements and world averages.

Amplitude analysis and branching fraction measurement of the decay $D^0 \to K^+K^-π^0π^0$

An amplitude analysis of the singly Cabibbo-suppressed decay $D^0 \to K^+ K^- π^0 π^0$ is performed, for the first time, to determine the relative magnitudes and phases of different intermediate processes. The analysis uses $e^+e^-$ collision data collected with the BESIII detector at the center-of-mass energy 3.773~GeV corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 20.3 $\rm fb^{-1}$. The absolute branching fraction of $D^0 \to K^+ K^- π^0 π^0$ is measured to be \BF. The dominant intermediate process is $D^0 \to K^{*}(892)^+K^{*}(892)^-$, with a branching fraction of $(2.79 \pm 0.13_{\rm{stat.}} \pm 0.11_{\rm{syst.}}) \times 10^{-3}$. Amplitude analysis reveals that the $D^0 \to K^{*}(892)^+K^{*}(892)^-$ decay is S-wave dominant. The longitudinal polarization fraction of $D^0 \to K^{*}(892)^+ K^{*}(892)^-$ is measured to be $0.468\pm0.046_{\rm{stat.}}\pm0.011_{\rm{syst.}}$.

Measurements of branching fractions of $Λ_{c}^{+}\toΣ^{0}K_{S}^{0}π^{+}$ and $Λ_{c}^{+}\toΣ^{0}K_{S}^{0}K^{+}$

Based on a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 6.4~fb$^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ annihilation and collected with the BESIII detector at 13 center-of-mass energy points ranging between 4.600~GeV and 4.950~GeV, we report the first observation of the singly Cabibbo-suppressed decay $Λ_c^+ \to Σ^0 K_S^0 π^+$ with a statistical significance of 5.9$σ$. The branching fraction is determined to be $\mathcal{B}(Λ_c^+ \to Σ^0 K_S^0 π^+) = (0.58 \pm 0.14_{\rm stat.} \pm 0.04_{\rm syst.}) \times 10^{-3}$. In addition, the decay $Λ_c^+\toΣ^0K_{S}^{0} K^+$ has also been investigated, and the first evidence for this decay is obtained with a statistical significance of 3.7$σ$.

Observation of $D_s^+ \to a_0(980)^+f_0(500)$ in the Amplitude Analysis of $D_s^+ \to π^+ π^0 π^0 η$

We report the first observation of the decay $D_s^+ \to π^+π^0π^0η$ in a data set corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 7.33 fb$^{-1}$, collected in $e^+e^-$ collisions by the BESIII detector at center-of-mass energies between 4.128 and 4.226 GeV. An unexpectedly large branching fraction $\mathcal{B}( D_s^+ \to a_0(980)^+ f_0(500), a_0(980)^+ \to π^+η, f_0(500)\to π^0π^0) = (0.98 \pm 0.16_{\rm{stat.}} \pm 0.22_{\rm{syst.}})\%$ is measured with a significance exceeding $10σ$, offering new constraints on the internal structure of light scalar mesons. The dominant intermediate process is $D_s^+ \to a_1(1260)^+η, a_1(1260)^+\to ρ(770)^+π^0$ with a branching fraction of $(1.77 \pm 0.21_{\rm stat.} \pm 0.12_{\rm syst.})\%$. The isospin symmetry has been validated to the decays of $a_1(1260)^+\to ρ(770)^0π^+$ and $a_1(1260)^+\to ρ(770)^+π^0$. Moreover, the measured $\mathcal{B}(D_s^+\to π^+π^0π^0η|_{\rm{non}-η^\prime})=(2.97 \pm 0.23_{\rm stat.} \pm 0.14_{\rm sys.})$ reduces the undetected $D_s^+ \to ηX$ decay branching fractions to (0.1 $\pm$ 3.1)\%.

Search for a massless particle beyond the Standard Model in the $Ξ^0\toΛ+ \text{invisible}$ decay

A search for a massless beyond-standard-model particle is performed in the decay $Ξ^{0}\toΛ+\text{invisible}$ using $(1.0087 \pm 0.0044)\times 10^{10}$ $J/ψ$ events collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider. No significant signal is observed and the upper limit on the branching fraction $\mathcal{B}(Ξ^{0}\toΛ+\text{invisible})$ is set to be $2.3 \times 10^{-4}$ at the $90\%$ confidence level. This is the first search for a flavor-changing neutral current process with missing energy in $Ξ^0$ decays. Throughout this paper, charge-conjugate processes are always implied.

An improved measurement of $η^\prime\rightarrow e^{+}e^{-}ω$

Using a sample of $(10087 \pm 44) \times 10^{6}$ $J/ψ$ events collected with the BESIII detector, an improved measurement of the decay $η^{\prime}\rightarrow e^{+}e^{-}ω$, with $ω\rightarrowπ^{+}π^{-}π^{0}$ and $π^{0}\rightarrowγγ$ is performed. The branching fraction is determined to be $\mathcal{B}(η^{\prime}\rightarrow e^{+}e^{-}ω) = (1.79 \pm 0.09 \pm 0.12) \times 10^{-4}$, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. This result is consistent with the previous measurement and is obtained with significantly improved precision. Furthermore, the first measurement of the transition form factor cutoff parameter for this decay is reported, with $Λ^{-1} = (2.92 \pm 0.83 \pm 0.15)~\text{GeV}^{-1}$. These measurements provide valuable input for understanding the internal structure of the $η^{\prime}$ meson and testing theoretical models.

Measurement of Born Cross Sections for $e^+e^-\toΣ^-\barΣ^+$ at $\sqrt{s}=3.51-4.95$ GeV and Observation of $ψ(3770)\toΣ^-\barΣ^+$

Using $e^+e^-$ collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 44 fb$^{-1}$ collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, we report the first measurement of Born cross sections and effective form factors for $e^+e^-\toΣ^-\barΣ^+$ at centre-of-mass energies between 3.51 and 4.95 GeV. With a fit to the $\sqrt{s}$-dependent dressed cross sections, the decay $ψ(3770)\toΣ^-\barΣ^+$ is observed for the first time with a significance of 5.5$σ$, including systematic uncertainties. Upper limits at the 90\% confidence level on the product of the branching fraction and the electronic partial width are provided for other possible charmonium(-like) states. The ratios of Born cross sections for the $Σ$ isospin-triplet states are determined and can be used to test the vector-meson-dominance model.

Using $(10087\pm 44)\times 10^6$ $J/ψ$ events collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, we report the first observation of the decay $η_{c} \to Ξ^{0} \barΞ^{0}$.

The branching fractions are measured to be $B(η_c \to Ξ^0 \barΞ^0)=(1.33 \pm 0.03 \pm 0.18) \times 10^{-3}$ for the constructive interference and $B(η_c \to Ξ^0 \barΞ^0)=(1.63 \pm 0.04 \pm 0.21) \times 10^{-3}$ for the destructive interference, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second are systematic.

Study of $\barΛ$-$p$ Annihilation into Light Mesons

The annihilation of $\barΛ$-$p$ into light mesons is studied using $(10.087\pm0.044)\times10^{9}$ $J/ψ$ events collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII storage ring. The $\barΛ$ baryons are produced in the process $J/ψ\rightarrowΛ\barΛ$ and interact with the protons in the hydrogen nuclei in the cooling oil of the beam pipe. The reactions $\barΛp\rightarrow K^+π^+π^-$ and $K^+2π^+2π^-$ are observed for the first time, evidence for the reaction $\barΛp\rightarrow K^0_S2π^+π^-$ is found, and no significant signals are seen for the reactions $\barΛp\rightarrow K^0_Sπ^+$, $K^+3π^+3π^-$ and $2K^+K^-$. The cross sections of these reactions are also measured at $P_{\barΛ}\approx 1.074$ GeV/$c$. Furthermore, no significant structures are observed in the combinations of the final state particles for these reactions. The annihilation of $\barΛ$-$p$ into light mesons presents the similar behavior as $\bar{n}$-$p$ reactions in this energy region. These new measurements will serve as important inputs for the theoretical understanding of the antihyperon-nucleon interaction, and further contribute to understanding antibaryon-baryon interaction in a unified perspective.

The dominant contributions are found to be excited $Λ$ states with $J^P=1/2^-$ and $J^P=1/2^+$ in the $ηΛ$ mass spectra.
