Luminosities and energies of e + e - collision data taken between $\sqrt{s}$=4.61 GeV and 4.95 GeV at BESIII*

From December 2019 to June 2021, the BESIII experiment collected approximately 5.85 fb -1 of data at center-of-mass energies between 4.61 and 4.95 GeV. This is the highest collision energy BEPCII has reached to date. The accumulated e + e - annihilation data samples are useful for studying charmonium(-like) states and charmed-hadron decays. By adopting a novel method of analyzing the production of $Λ^{+}_{c}$ $\overline{Λ}$ $^{-}_{c}$ pairs in e + e - annihilation, the center-of-mass energies are measured with a precision of ~0.6 MeV. Integrated luminosities are measured with a precision of better than 1% by analyzing the events of large-angle Bhabha scattering. These measurements provide important inputs to analyses based on these data samples.

Amplitude analysis and branching fraction measurement of the decay $D_s^{+} → K^+π^+π^-$

Using 6.32 fb -1 of e + e - collision data collected at the center-of-mass energies between 4.178 and 4.226 GeV with the BESIII detector, we perform an amplitude analysis of the decay D$^+_s$ → K + π + π - and determine the amplitudes of the various intermediate states. The absolute branching fraction of D$^+_s$ → K + π + π - is measured to be (6.11 ± 0.18 stat. ± 0.11 syst. ) x 10 -3 . The branching fractions of the dominant intermediate processes D$^+_s$ → K + ρ 0 , ρ 0 → π + π - and D$^+_s$ → K*(892) 0 π + , K*(892) 0 → K + π - are determined to be (1.96 ± 0.19 stat . ± 0.23 syst. ) x 10 -3 and (1.85 ± 0.12 stat . ± 0.13 syst .) x 10 -3 , respectively. The intermediate resonances f 0 (500), f 0 (980), and f 0 (1370) are observed for the first time in this channel.

Cross section measurements of the processes $e^+e^–$ → $ωπ^0$ and $ωη$ at center-of-mass energies between 3.773 and 4.701 GeV

The Born cross sections of the processes $e^+e^–$ → $ωπ^0$ and $e^+e^–$ → $ωη$ are measured at center-of-mass energies between 3.773 and 4.701 GeV using a total integrated luminosity of 22.7 fb –1 collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII collider. A simple $s^{-n}$ dependence for the continuum process can describe the measured Born cross sections. No significant contributions from the ψ(4160), Y(4230), Y(4360), ψ(4415), Y(4660) resonances are found, which indicates relative small branching fractions for these resonances into the $ωπ^0$ and $ωη$ final states.

Measurement of e + e – → $\mathrm{K^+K^–π^0}$ cross section and observation of a resonant structure

Based on collision data collected by the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider at center-of-mass energies from 2.000 to 3.080 GeV, a partial-wave analysis is performed for the process $e^+e^–$→ $K^+K^–π^0$. The Born cross section of the process $e^+e^–$→ $K^+K^–π^0$ and its subprocesses $e^+e^–$ → $\phi π^0, K^{*+}$(892)$K^–$ and $K^{*+}_{2}$(1430)$K^–$ are measured. The results for $e^+e^–$→ $K^+K^–π^0$ and $\phi π^0$ are consistent with the BaBar measurements and with improved precision. By analyzing the cross sections of the subprocesses $e^+e^–$ → $K^{*+}$(892)$K^–$ and $K^{*+}_{2}$(1430)$K^–$ a structure with mass $M_R$ = (2190 ± 19 ± 37) MeV/c 2 and width $Γ_R$ = (191 ± 28 ± 60) MeV is observed with a combined statistical significance of 7.1σ. The measured resonance parameters suggest it can be identified as the $\phi$(2170), thus the results provide valuable input to understand the internal nature of this state.

Cross section measurements of the $e^+e^–$ → $D^{*+}D^{*–}$ and $e^+e^–$ → $D^{*+}D^{–}$ processes at center-of-mass energies from 4.085 to 4.600 GeV

The Born cross sections of the $e^+e^–$ → $D^{*+}D^{*–}$ and $e^+e^–$ → $D^{*+}D^{–}$ processes are measured using $e^+e^–$ collision data collected with the BESIII experiment at center-of-mass energies from 4.085 to 4.600 GeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 15.7 fb -1 . The results are consistent with and more precise than the previous measurements by the Belle, Babar and CLEO collaborations. The measurements are essential for understanding the nature of vector charmonium and charmonium-like states.

Searches for 25 rare and forbidden decays of D + and ${D}_s^{+}$ mesons

A search is performed for rare and forbidden charm decays of the form ${D}_{(s)}^{+}\to {h}^{\pm }{\mathrm{\ell}}^{+}{\mathrm{\ell}}^{\left(\prime \right)\mp } $, where h ± is a pion or kaon and ℓ (')± is an electron or muon. The measurements are performed using proton-proton collision data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.6 fb –1 , collected by the LHCb experiment in 2016. No evidence is observed for the 25 decay modes that are investigated and 90 % confidence level limits on the branching fractions are set between 1.4 × 10 –8 and 6.4 × 10 –6 . In most cases, these results represent an improvement on existing limits by one to two orders of magnitude.

Observation of Enhanced Double Parton Scattering in Proton-Lead Collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$= 8.16 TeV

A study of prompt charm-hadron pair production in proton-lead collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}$ = 8.16 TeV is performed using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of about 30 nb -1 , collected with the LHCb experiment. Production cross sections for different pairs of charm hadrons are measured and kinematic correlations between the two charm hadrons are investigated. This is the first measurement of associated production of two charm hadrons in proton-lead collisions. The results confirm the predicted enhancement of double parton scattering production in proton-lead collisions compared to the single parton scattering production.

Search for the doubly heavy $ {\Xi}_{bc}^0 $ baryon via decays to D0pK-

A search for the doubly heavy \( {\Xi}_{bc}^0 \) baryon using its decay to the D 0 pK – final state is performed using proton-proton collision data at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV collected by the LHCb experiment between 2016 and 2018, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.4 fb - 1 . No significant signal is found in the invariant mass range from 6.7 to 7.2 GeV/ c 2 . Upper limits are set at 95% credibility level on the ratio of the \( {\Xi}_{bc}^0 \) production cross-section times its branching fraction to D 0 pK - relative to that of the \( {\Lambda}_b^0\to {D}^0{pK}^{-} \) decay. The limits are set as a function of the \( {\Xi}_{bc}^0 \) mass and lifetime hypotheses, in the rapidity range from 2.0 to 4.5 and in the transverse momentum region from 5 to 25 GeV/ c . Upper limits range from 1 . 7 × 10 - 2 to 3 . 0 × 10 - 1 for the considered \( {\Xi}_{bc}^0 \) mass and lifetime hypotheses.
