Machine Learning Aided Modeling of Granular Materials: A Review

Artificial intelligence (AI) has become a buzz word since Google's AlphaGo beat a world champion in 2017. In the past five years, machine learning as a subset of the broader category of AI has obtained considerable attention in the research community of granular materials. This work offers a detailed review of the recent advances in machine learning-aided studies of granular materials from the particle-particle interaction at the grain level to the macroscopic simulations of granular flow. This work will start with the application of machine learning in the microscopic particle-particle interaction and associated contact models. Then, different neural networks for learning the constitutive behaviour of granular materials will be reviewed and compared. Finally, the macroscopic simulations of practical engineering or boundary value problems based on the combination of neural networks and numerical methods are discussed. We hope readers will have a clear idea of the development of machine learning-aided modelling of granular materials via this comprehensive review work.

Observation of $χ_{c0}\toΣ^{+}\barΣ^{-}η$ and evidence for $χ_{c1,2}\toΣ^{+}\barΣ^{-}η$

Using $(27.12\pm 0.14)\times10^{8}$ $ψ(3686)$ events collected with the BESIII detector, the decay $χ_{c0}\toΣ^{+}\barΣ^{-}η$ is observed for the first time with a statistical significance of $7.0σ$, and evidence for $χ_{c1}\toΣ^{+}\barΣ^{-}η$ and $χ_{c2}\toΣ^{+}\barΣ^{-}η$ is found with statistical significances of $4.3σ$ and $4.6σ$, respectively. The branching fractions are determined to be $\mathcal{B}(χ_{c0}\toΣ^{+}\barΣ^{-}η)=({1.26 \pm 0.20 \pm 0.13}) \times 10^{-4}, ~\mathcal{B}(χ_{c1}\toΣ^{+}\barΣ^{-}η)=({5.10 \pm 1.21 \pm 0.67}) \times 10^{-5}$, and $\mathcal{B}(χ_{c2}\toΣ^{+}\barΣ^{-}η)=({5.46 \pm 1.18 \pm 0.50}) \times 10^{-5}$, where the first uncertainties are statistical, and the second ones are systematic.

Observation of the Singly Cabibbo-Suppressed Decay $Λ_c^{+}\to pπ^0$

Utilizing 4.5${~\rm{fb}}^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ annihilation data collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider at center-of-mass energies between 4.600 and 4.699 GeV, the first observation of the singly Cabibbo-suppressed decay $Λ_c^{+}\to pπ^0$ is presented, with a statistical significance of $5.4σ$. The ratio of the branching fractions of $Λ_c^{+}\to pπ^0$ and $Λ_c^{+}\to pη$ is measured as $\mathcal{B}(Λ_c^{+}\to pπ^0)/\mathcal{B}(Λ_c^{+}\to pη)=(0.120\pm0.026_{\rm stat.}\pm0.007_{\rm syst.})$. This result resolves the longstanding discrepancy between earlier experimental searches, providing both a decisive conclusion and valuable input for QCD-inspired theoretical models. A sophisticated deep learning approach using a Transformer-based architecture is employed to distinguish the signal from the prevalent hadronic backgrounds, complemented by thorough validation and systematic uncertainty quantification.

Search for $η_c(2S)\to 2(π^+π^-)$ and improved measurement of $χ_{cJ}\to 2(π^+π^-)$

We search for the hadronic decay $η_c(2S)\to 2(π^+π^-)$ in the $ψ(3686)\toγη_c(2S)$ radiative decay using $(27.12\pm 0.14)\times 10^8$ $ψ(3686)$ events collected by the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider.

Search for $e^{+}e^{-} \to ϕχ_{c0}$ and $ϕη_{c2}(1D)$ at center-of-mass energies from 4.47 to 4.95 GeV

Utilizing a data set of $6.7$ fb$^{-1}$ from electron-positron collisions recorded by the BESIII detector at the BEPCII storage ring, a search is conducted for the processes $e^{+}e^{-} \to ϕχ_{c0}$ and $ϕη_{c2}(1D)$ across center-of-mass energies from 4.47 to 4.95 GeV. In the absence of any significant signals, upper limits are set. These include limits on the Born cross sections for $e^{+}e^{-} \to ϕχ_{c0}$, as well as the product of the Born cross section for $e^{+}e^{-} \to ϕη_{c2}(1D)$ and a sum of five branching fractions. Furthermore, the product of the electronic width of $Y(4660)$ and the branching fraction of the $Y(4660) \to ϕχ_{c0}$, denoted as $Γ^{Y(4660)}_{e^{+}e^{-}} \mathcal{B}_{Y(4660) \to ϕχ_{c0}}$, is determined to be $< 0.40$ eV at the 90\% confidence level.

Observation of $χ_{cJ}\to p \bar p K^0_S K^- π^+ + c.c.$

By analyzing $(27.12\pm0.14)\times10^8$ $ψ(3686)$ events collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII collider, the decays of $χ_{cJ} \to p \bar{p} K^0_S K^- π^+ +c.c.(J=0, 1, 2)$ are observed for the first time with statistical significances greater than $10σ$. The branching fractions of these decays are determined to be $\mathcal{B}(χ_{c0}\to p \bar p K^{0}_{S} K^- π^+ + c.c.)=(2.61\pm0.27\pm0.32)\times10^{-5},$ $\mathcal{B}(χ_{c1}\to p \bar p K^{0}_{S} K^- π^+ + c.c.)=(4.16\pm0.24\pm0.46)\times10^{-5},$ and $\mathcal{B}(χ_{c2}\to p \bar p K^{0}_{S} K^- π^+ + c.c.)=(5.63\pm0.28\pm0.46)\times10^{-5}$, respectively. The processes $χ_{c1,2} \to \bar{p} Λ(1520) K^0_S π^{+} + c.c.$ are also observed, with statistical significances of 5.7$σ$ and 7.0$σ$, respectively. Evidence for $χ_{c0} \to\bar{p} Λ(1520) K^0_S π^{+} + c.c.$ is found with statistical significances of 3.3$σ$ each. The corresponding branching fractions are determined to be $\mathcal{B}(χ_{c0}\to \bar{p} Λ(1520) K^0_S π^{+} + c.c.) =(1.61^{+0.68}_{-0.64}\pm0.23)\times10^{-5}$, $\mathcal{B}(χ_{c1}\to \bar{p} Λ(1520) K^0_S π^{+} + c.c.)=(4.06^{+0.80}_{-0.76}\pm0.52)\times10^{-5}$, and $\mathcal{B}(χ_{c2}\to \bar{p} Λ(1520) K^0_S π^{+} + c.c.)=(4.09^{+0.87}_{-0.84}\pm0.42)\times10^{-5}$.

Search for the massless dark photon with $D^0\toωγ'$ and $D^0\toγγ'$

Using $7.9~\rm{fb^{-1}}$ of $e^+e^-$ collision data collected at $\sqrt{s}=3.773$ GeV with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, we search for the massless dark photon with the flavor-changing neutral current processes $D^0\toωγ'$ and $D^0\toγγ'$ for the first time. No significant signals are observed, and the upper limits at the 90% confidence level on the massless dark photon branching fraction are set to be $1.1\times10^{-5}$ and $2.0\times10^{-6}$ for $D^0\toωγ'$ and $D^0\toγγ'$, respectively. These results provide the most stringent constraint on the new physics energy scale associated with $cuγ'$ coupling in the world, with the new physics energy scale related parameter $|\mathbb{C}|^2+|\mathbb{C}_5|^2<8.2\times10^{-17}~\rm{GeV}^{-2}$ at the 90% confidence level.

Observation of an axial-vector state in the study of $ψ(3686) \to ϕηη'$ decay

Using (2712.4 $\pm$ 14.3)$\times 10^{6}$ $ψ(3686)$ events collected with the BESIII detector at BEPCII, a partial wave analysis of the decay $ψ(3686) \to ϕηη' $ is performed with the covariant tensor approach. An axial-vector state with a mass near 2.3 $\rm GeV/c^2$ is observed for the first time. Its mass and width are measured to be 2316 $\pm 9_{\mathrm{stat}} \pm 30_{\mathrm{syst}}\,\rm MeV/c^2$ and 89 $\pm 15_{\mathrm{stat}} \pm 26_{\mathrm{syst}}\,\rm MeV$, respectively. The product branching fractions of $\mathcal{B}(ψ(3686) \to X(2300) η') \mathcal{B}(X(2300)\to ϕη)$ and $\mathcal{B}(ψ(3686) \to X(2300) η)\mathcal{B}(X(2300)\to ϕη')$ are determined to be (4.8 $\pm 1.3_{\mathrm{stat}} \pm 0.7_{\mathrm{syst}})\times 10^{-6}$ and (2.2 $\pm 0.7_{\mathrm{stat}} \pm 0.7_{\mathrm{syst}})\times 10^{-6}$, respectively. The branching fraction $\mathcal{B}(ψ(3686) \to ϕηη')$ is measured for the first time to be (3.14$\pm0.17_{\mathrm{stat}}\pm0.24_{\mathrm{syst}})\times10^{-5}$.

We present evidence for $D^0\to K^-ηe^+ν_e$ with a significance of $3.3σ$. The branching fraction of $D^0\to K^-ηe^+ν_e$ is measured to be $(0.84_{-0.34}^{+0.29}\pm0.22)\times 10^{-4}$. Here, the first uncertainties are statistical and the second ones are systematic. No significant signals are observed for the decays $D^+\to K_S^0 ηe^+ν_e$ and $D^+\to ηηe^+ν_e$ and we set the upper limits on their branching fractions.

Using 10.1 fb$^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ collision data collected by the BESIII detector with center-of-mass energies between 4.15 GeV and 4.30 GeV, we search for the decays $X(3872)\toπ^0π^0χ_{c1,2}$, where the $X(3872)$ is produced in $e^+e^-\toγX(3872)$. No evidence above $3σ$ is found for either decay. Upper limits at the $90\%$ C.L. on the branching fractions of $X(3872)\toπ^0π^0χ_{c1,2}$ normalized to the branching fraction of $X(3872)\toπ^+π^-J/ψ$ are set to be $\mathcal{B}(X(3872)\toπ^0π^0χ_{c1})/\mathcal{B}(X(3872)\toπ^+π^-J/ψ) < 1.1$ and $\mathcal{B}(X(3872)\toπ^0π^0χ_{c2})/\mathcal{B}(X(3872)\toπ^+π^-J/ψ) < 0.5$, taking into account both statistical and systematic uncertainties.

Measurements of the $CP$-even fractions of $D^0\toπ^{+}π^{-}π^{0}$ and $D^0\to K^{+}K^{-}π^{0}$ at BESIII

The $CP$-even fractions ($F_{+}$) of the decays $D^0\toπ^{+}π^{-}π^{0}$ and $D^0\to K^{+}K^{-}π^{0}$ are measured with a quantum-correlated $ψ(3770)\to D\bar{D}$ data sample collected by the BESIII experiment corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 7.93 $\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$. The results are $F_{+}^{π^{+}π^{-}π^{0}}=0.9406\pm0.0036\pm0.0021$ and $F_{+}^{K^{+}K^{-}π^{0}}=0.631\pm0.014\pm0.011$, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic. These measurements are consistent with the previous determinations, and the uncertainties for $F_{+}^{π^{+}π^{-}π^{0}}$ and $F_{+}^{K^{+}K^{-}π^{0}}$ are reduced by factors of 3.9 and 2.6, respectively. The reported results provide important inputs for the precise measurement of the angle $γ$ of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix and indirect $CP$ violation in charm mixing.

Study of the decay $D^0\rightarrow ρ(770)^-e^+ν_e$

We present a study of the semileptonic decay $D^0\rightarrow π^-π^0e^{+}ν_{e}$ using an $e^+e^-$ annihilation data sample of $7.93~\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ collected at the center-of-mass energy of 3.773 GeV with the BESIII detector. The branching fraction of $D^0\to ρ(770)^-e^+ν_e$ is measured to be $(1.439 \pm 0.033(\rm stat.) \pm 0.027(\rm syst.)) \times10^{-3}$, which is a factor 1.6 more precise than previous measurements. By performing an amplitude analysis, we measure the hadronic form-factor ratios of $D^0\to ρ(770)^-e^+ν_e$ at $q^2=0$ assuming the single-pole-dominance parametrization: $r_{V}=V(0)/A_1(0)=1.548\pm0.079(\rm stat.)\pm0.041(\rm syst.)$ and $r_{2}=A_2(0)/A_1(0)=0.823\pm0.056(\rm stat.)\pm0.026(\rm syst.)$.

Using 9.0 $\rm fb^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ collision data collected at center-of-mass energies from 4.178 to 4.278 GeV with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, we perform the first search for the radiative transition $χ_{c1}(3872)\toγψ_2(3823)$. No $χ_{c1}(3872)\toγψ_2(3823)$ signal is observed. The upper limit on the ratio of branching fractions $\mathcal{B}(χ_{c1}(3872)\toγψ_2(3823), ψ_2(3823)\toγχ_{c1})/\mathcal{B}(χ_{c1}(3872)\toπ^+π^- J/ψ)$ is set as 0.075 at the 90\% confidence level. Our result contradicts theoretical predictions under the assumption that the $χ_{c1}(3872)$ is the pure charmonium state $χ_{c1}(2P)$.
