Measurement of the absolute branching fraction of the inclusive decay $\Lambda _c^+ \rightarrow K_S^0X$: (BESIII Collaboration)

We report the first measurement of the absolute branching fraction of the inclusive decay Λ c + → K S 0 X . The analysis is performed using an e + e - collision data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 567 pb - 1 taken at s = 4.6 GeV with the BESIII detector. Using eleven Cabibbo-favored Λ ¯ c - decay modes and the double-tag technique, this absolute branching fraction is measured to be B ( Λ c + → K S 0 X ) = ( 9.9 ± 0.6 ± 0.4 ) % , where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic. The relative deviation between the branching fractions for the inclusive decay and the observed exclusive decays is ( 18.7 ± 8.3 ) % , which indicates that there may be some unobserved decay modes with a neutron or excited baryons in the final state.

Observation of X(2370) and search for X(2120) in $J/\psi \rightarrow \gamma K{\bar{K}} \eta '$: BESIII Collaboration

Using a sample of 1.31 × 10 9 J/ψ events collected with the BESIII detector, we perform a study of J/ψ → γKK¯η'. X(2370) is observed in the KK¯η' invariant-mass distribution with a statistical significance of 8.3σ. Its resonance parameters are measured to be M = 2341.6 ± 6.5(stat.) ± 5.7(syst.) MeV/c 2 and Γ = 117 ± 10(stat.) ± 8(syst.) MeV. The product branching fractions for J/ψ → γX(2370), X(2370) → K + K – η' and J/ψ → γX(2370), X(2370) → $K$ $^{0}_{S}$ $K$ $^{0}_{S}$η' are determined to be (1.79 ± 0.23(stat.) ± 0.65(syst.)) × 10 –5 and (1.18 ± 0.32(stat.) ± 0.39(syst.)) × 10 –5 , respectively. No evident signal for X(2120) is observed in the KK¯η' invariant-mass distribution. The upper limits for the product branching fractions of B(J/ψ → γX(2120) → γK + K – η') and B(J/ψ → γX(2120) → $K$ $^{0}_{S}$ $K$ $^{0}_{S}$η') are determined to be 1.49 × 10 –5 and 6.38 × 10 –6 at the 90% confidence level, respectively.

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.

Digitization modeling of a CGEM detector based on Garfield++ simulation

Abstract Background The Cylindrical Gas Electron Multiplier Inner Tracker (CGEM-IT) is one of the candidates for the replacement of the current BESIII inner drift chamber, which has developed serious aging effects due to beam-related backgrounds. Purpose To build a full digitization model, it is necessary to understand the electron drift behavior and signal induction. Methods A simulation study based on Garfield++ and ANSYS software has been performed. Results Parameters describing the Lorentz angle, diffusion effect, drift time, multiplication, and induction are obtained from the Garfield++ simulation. Based on these results, a preliminary digitization model is implemented in the BESIII offline software system.

Measurement of integrated luminosities at BESIII for data samples at center-of-mass energies between 4.0 and 4.6 GeV*

Abstract The integrated luminosities of data samples collected in the BESIII experiment in 2016–2017 at center-of-mass energies between 4.19 and 4.28 GeV are measured with a precision better than 1% by analyzing large-angle Bhabha scattering events. The integrated luminosities of old datasets collected in 2010–2014 are updated by considering corrections related to detector performance, offsetting the effect of newly discovered readout errors in the electromagnetic calorimeter, which can haphazardly occur.
