Amplitude analysis and branching fraction measurement of the decay $\mathrm{D}_s^+$ → $\mathrm{K}^+π^+π^-π^0$

The singly Cabibbo-suppressed decay D$^+_s$ → K + π + π - π 0 is observed by using a data set corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 6.32 fb -1 recorded by the BESIII detector at the centre-of-mass energies between 4.178 and 4.226 GeV. The first amplitude analysis of D$^+_s$ → K + π + π - π 0 reveals the sub-structures in this decay and determines the fractions and relative phases of different intermediate processes. The dominant intermediate process is D$^+_s$ → K *0 ρ + , with a fit fraction of (40.5 ± 2.8 stat. ± 1.5 syst. )%. With the detection efficiency based on our amplitude analysis, the absolute branching fraction for D$^+_s$ → K + π + π - π 0 is measured to be (9.75 ± 0.54 stat. ± 0.17 syst. ) x 10 -3 .

Observation of the doubly Cabibbo-suppressed decays $D^+ → K^+π^0π^0$ and $D^+ → K^+π^0η$

By analyzing e + e - annihilation data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.93 fb -1 collected at the center-of-mass energy of 3.773 GeV with the BESIII detector, we report the first observations of the doubly Cabibbo-suppressed decays D + → K + π 0 π 0 and D + → K + π 0 η. The branching fractions of D + → K + π 0 π 0 and D + → K + π 0 η are measured to be (2.1 ± 0.4 stat ± 0.1 syst ) x 10 -4 and (2.1 ± 0.5 stat ± 0.1 syst ) x 10 -4 with statistical significances of 8.8σ and 5.5σ, respectively. In addition, we search for the subprocesses D + → K * (892) + π 0 and D + → K * (892)+η with K * (892) + → K + π 0 . The branching fraction of D + → K * (892) + η is determined to be (4.4$^{+1.8}_{-1.5stat}$ ± 0.2 syst ) x 10 -4 , with a statistical significance of 3.2σ. No significant signal for D + → K * (892) + π 0 is found and we set an upper limit on the branching fraction of this decay at the 90% confidence level to be 5.4 x 10 -4 .

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.

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.
