Observation of χ c 2 → η ' η ' and χ c 0 , 2 → η η '

Using a sample of 448.1×10 6 ψ(3686) events collected with the BESIII detector in 2009 and 2012, we study the decays χ c 0,2 → η ' η ' and η η ' . The decays χ c 2 → η ' η ' , χ c 0 → η η ' and χ c 2 → η η ' are observed for the first time with statistical significances of 9.6 , 13.4 and 7.5 , respectively. The branching fractions are determined to be B( χ c 0 → η ' η ' ) = (2.19 ± 0.03 ± 0.14) × 10 -3 , B( χ c 2 → η ' η ' ) = (4.76 ± 0.56 ± 0.38) × 10 -5 , B( χ c 0 → η η ' ) = (8.92±0.84±0.65)×10 -5 and B( χ c 2 → η η ' ) = (2.27±0.43±0.25)×10 -5 , where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second are systematic. The precision for the measurement of B( χ c 0 → η ' η ' ) is significantly improved compared to previous measurements. Based on the measured branching fractions, the role played by the doubly and singly Okubo-Zweig-Iizuka disconnected transition amplitudes for χ c 0 , 2 decays into pseudoscalar meson pairs can be clarified.

Improved measurements of two-photon widths of the χ c J states and helicity analysis for χ c 2 → γ γ

Based on 448.1 x 10 6 ψ(3686) events collected with the BESIII detector, the decays ψ(3686) → γχ cJ ,χ cJ → γγ(J = 0,1,2) are studied in this paper. The decay branching fractions of χ c0,2 → γγ are measured to be β(χ c0 → γγ) = (1.93 ± 0.08 ± 0.05 ± 0.05) x 10 -4 and β(χ c2 → γγ) = (3.10 ± 0.09 ± 0.07 ± 0.11) x 10 -4 , which correspond to two-photon decay widths of Γ γγ (χ c0 ) = 2.03 ± 0.08 ± 0.06 ± 0.13 keV and Γ γγ (χ c2 ) = 0.60 ± 0.02 ± 0.01 ± 0.04 keV with a ratio of R = Γ γγ (χ c2 )/Γ γγ (χ c0 ) = 0.295 ± 0.014 ± 0.007 ± 0.027, where the uncertainties are statistical, systematic and associated with the uncertainties of β(ψ(3686) → γχ c0,2 ) and the total widths Γ(χ c0,2 ), respectively. For the forbidden decay of χ c1 → γγ, no signal is observed, and an upper limit on the two-photon width is obtained to be Γ γγ (χ c1 ) < 5.3 eV at the 90% confidence level. Finally, the ratio of the two-photon widths between helicity-zero and helicity-two components in the decay χ c2 → γγ is also measured to be f 0/2 = Γ λ=0 γγ (χ c2 )/Γ λ=2 γγ (χ c2 ) = (0.0 ± 0.6 ± 1.2) x 10 -2 , where the uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively.

Search for the rare decay D + → D 0 e + ν e

Using a data set with an integrated luminosity of $2.93\text{ }\text{ }{\mathrm{fb}}^{{-}1}$ collected at $\sqrt{s}=3.773\text{ }\mathrm{GeV}$ with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII storage rings, we search for the rare decay ${D}^{+}{\rightarrow}{D}^{0}{e}^{+}{{\nu}}_{e}$. No signal events are observed. We set the upper limit on the branching fraction for ${D}^{+}{\rightarrow}{D}^{0}{e}^{+}{{\nu}}_{e}$ to be $1.0\times{}1{0}^{{-}4}$ at the 90% confidence level.

Measurement of branching fractions for ψ ( 3686 ) → γ η ' , γ η , and γ π 0

In this paper, using a data sample of 448 x 10 6 ψ(3686) events collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII storage ring, the decays ψ(3686) → γη and ψ(3686) → γπ 0 are observed with a statistical significance of 7.3σ and 6.7σ, respectively. The branching fractions are measured to be β(ψ(3686) → γη) = (0.85 ± 0.18 ± 0.05) x 10 -6 and β(ψ(3686) → γπ 0 ) = (0.95 ± 0.16 ± 0.05) x 10 -6 . Finally, in addition, we measure the branching fraction of ψ(3686) → γη' to be β(ψ(3686) → γη') = (125.1 ± 2.2 ± 6.2) x 10 -6 , which represents an improvement of precision over previous results.

Evidence for e + e - → γ η c ( 1 S ) at center-of-mass energies between 4.01 and 4.60 GeV

In this paper, we present first evidence for the process e + e - → γη c (1S) at six center-of-mass energies between 4.01 and 4.60 GeV using data collected by the BESIII experiment operating at BEPCII. We measure the Born cross section at each energy using a combination of twelve η c (1S) decay channels. We also combine all six energies under various assumptions for the energy-dependence of the cross section. Finally, if the process is assumed to proceed via the Y (4260), we measure a peak Born cross section σ peak (e + e - → γη c (1S)) = 2.11 ± 0.49(stat.) ± 0.36(syst.) pb with a statistical significance of 4.2σ.

Determination of the Spin and Parity of the Z c ( 3900 )

In this paper, the spin and parity of the Z c (3900) ± state are determined to be J P = 1 + with a statistical significance larger than 7σ over other quantum numbers in a partial wave analysis of the process e + e - &rarr; &pi; + &pi; - J/Ψ. We use a data sample of 1.92 fb -1 accumulated at $ \sqrt{s}=4.23 $ and 4.26 GeV with the BESIII experiment. When parametrizing the Z c (3900) ± with a Flatté-like formula, we determine its pole mass M pole = (3881.2±4.2 stat ±52.7 syst ) MeV/c 2 and pole width Γ pole = (51.8± 4.6 stat ± 36.0 syst ) MeV. Finally, we also measure cross sections for the process e + e - &rarr; Z c (3900) + &pi; - + c.c. &rarr; J/Ψ&pi; + &pi; - and determine an upper limit at the 90% confidence level for the process e + e - &rarr; Z c (4020) + &pi; - + c.c. &rarr; J/Ψ &pi; + &pi; - .

Analysis of $D$ + → $K¯$ 0 $e$ + $ν$ $e$ and $D$ + → $π$ 0 $e$ + $ν$ $e$ semileptonic decays

Using 2.93 fb –1 of data taken at 3.773 GeV with the BESIII detector operated at the BEPCII collider, we study the semileptonic decays D + → K¯ 0 e + ν e and D + → π 0 e + ν e . Here, we measure the absolute decay branching fractions B(D + → K¯ 0 e + ν e ) = (8.60 ± 0.06 ± 0.15) × 10 –2 and B(D + → π 0 e + ν e ) = (3.63 ± 0.08 ± 0.05) × 10 –3 , where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic. We also measure the differential decay rates and study the form factors of these two decays. With the values of |V cs | and |V cd | from Particle Data Group fits assuming CKM unitarity, we obtain the values of the form factors at q 2 = 0, $f$ $^{K}_{+}$(0) = 0.725 ± 0.004 ± 0.012 and $f$ $^{π}_{+}$(0) = 0.622 ± 0.012 ± 0.003. Taking input from recent lattice QCD calculations of these form factors, we determine values of the CKM matrix elements |V cs | = 0.944 ± 0.005 ± 0.015 ± 0.024 and |V cd | = 0.210 ± 0.004 ± 0.001 ± 0.009, where the third uncertainties are theoretical.

Measurement of integrated luminosity and center-of-mass energy of data taken by BESIII at √s = 2.125 GeV*

To study the nature of the state Y (2175), a dedicated data set of e + e – collision data was collected at the center-of-mass energy of 2.125 GeV with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider. By analyzing large-angle Bhabha scattering events, the integrated luminosity of this data set is determined to be 108.49±0.02±0.85 pb –1 , where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second one is systematic. In addition, the center-of-mass energy of the data set is determined with radiative dimuon events to be 2126.55±0.03±0.85 MeV, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second one is systematic.
