Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Using a sample of 4.48 x 10(8) Psi(3686) events collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, we study the two-photon decays of the pseudoscalar mesons pi(0,) eta , eta' , eta(1405), eta(1475), eta(1760), and X(1835) in J/Psi radiative decays using Psi(3686) -> pi(+) pi(-) J/Psi events. The pi(0), eta, and eta' mesons are clearly observed in the two-photon mass spectra, and the branching fractions are determined to be B(J/Psi -> gamma pi(0) -> 3 gamma) = (3.57 +/- 0.12 +/- 0.16) x 10(-5), B(J/Psi -> gamma eta -> 3 gamma) = (4.42 +/- 0.04 +/- 0.18) x 10(-4), and B(J/Psi -> gamma eta' -> 2 gamma) = (1.26 +/- 0.02 +/- 0.05) x 10(-4), where the first error is statistical and the second is systematic. No clear signal for eta(1405), eta(1475), eta(1760) or X(1835) is observed in the two- photon mass spectra, and upper limits at the 90% confidence level on the product branching fractions are obtained.

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Using 1310.6 x 10(6) J/psi and 447.9 x 10(6) psi (3686) events collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII e(+)e(-) collider, the branching fractions and the angular distributions of J/psi and psi (3686) decays to Lambda(Lambda) over bar and Sigma(0)(Sigma) over tilde (0) final states are measured. The branching fractions are determined, with much improved precision, to be 19.43 +/- 0.03 +/- 0.33, 11.64 +/- 0.04 +/- 0.23, 3.97 +/- 0.02 +/- 0.12 and 2.44 +/- 0.03 +/- 0.11 for J/psi -> Lambda(Lambda) over bar -> Sigma(0)(Sigma) over tilde (0) , psi (3686) -> Lambda(Lambda) over bar and psi (3686) -> Sigma(0)(Sigma) over tilde (0), respectively. The polar angular distributions of psi (3686) decays are measured for the first time, while those of J/psi decays are measured with much improved precision. In addition, the ratios of branching fractions B(psi(3686)->Lambda(Lambda) over bar)/B(J/psi -> Lambda(Lambda) over bar) and B(psi(3686)->Sigma(0)(Sigma) over tilde (0))/B(J/psi ->Sigma(0)(Sigma) over tilde (0)) are determined to test the "12% rule."

Amplitude analysis of D0 → K -π+π+π-
- 2017

In: Physical Review D. - 2470-0010 .- 2470-0029. ; 95:7

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- We present an amplitude analysis of the decay D0 → K -π+π+π- based on a data sample of 2.93 fb−1 acquired by the BESIII detector at the ψ(3770) resonance. With a nearly background free sample of about 16000 events, we investigate the substructure of the decay and determine the relative fractions and the phases among the different intermediate processes. Our amplitude model includes the two-body decays D0 → ¯K*0ρ0, D0 → K−a+1(1260) and D0 → K−1(1270)π+, the three-body decays D0 →¯K*0π+π− and D0 → K−π+ρ0, as well as the four-body nonresonant decay D0 → K−π+π+π−. The dominant intermediate process is D0 → K−a+1(1260), accounting for a fit fraction of 54.6%.

Amplitude analysis of the D+ -> K-S(0)pi + (0)(pi) Dalitz plot
- 2014
-
In: Physical Review D. - 1550-7998 .- 1550-2368. ; 89:5, s. 052001-
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- We perform an analysis of the D+ -> K-S(0)pi + (0)(pi) Dalitz plot using a data set of 2.92 fb(-1) of e(+) e(-) collisions at the (3770) mass accumulated by the BESIII experiment, in which 166694 candidate events are selected with a background of 15.1%. The Dalitz plot is found to be well represented by a combination of six quasitwo- body decay channels [k(SP)(0)(+) (1450)(+,) ] plus a small nonresonant component. Using the fit fractions from this analysis, partial branching ratios are updated with higher precision than previous measurements.

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Using a sample of 106 million psi(3686) decays, the branching fractions of psi(3686) -> gamma chi(c0), psi(3686) -> gamma chi(c1), and psi(3686) -> gamma chi(c2) are measured with improved precision to be (9.389 +/- 0.014 +/- 0.332) %, (9.905 +/- 0.011 +/- 0.353) %, and (9.621 +/- 0.013 +/- 0.272) %, respectively, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second ones are systematic. The product branching fractions of (psi 3686) -> gamma chi(c1), chi(c1) -> gamma J/psi (3686) -> gamma chi(c2), chi(c2) -> gamma J/psi and the branching fractions of chi(c1) -> gamma J/psi and chi(c2) -> gamma J/psi are also presented.

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The spin and parity of the Z(c)(3900)(+/-) state are determined to be J(P) = 1(+) with a statistical significance larger than 7 sigma over other quantum numbers in a partial wave analysis of the process e(+)e(-) -> pi(+)pi(-) J/psi We use a data sample of 1.92 fb(-1) accumulated at root s = 4.23 and 4.26 GeV with the BESIII experiment. When parametrizing the Z(c)(3900)(+/-) with a Flatte-like formula, we determine its pole mass M-pole = (3881.2 +/- 4.2(stat) +/- 52.7(syst)) MeV/c(2) and pole width Gamma(pole) = (51.8 +/- 4.6(stat) +/- 36.0(syst)) MeV. We also measure cross sections for the process e(+)e(-) -> Z(c)(3900)(+)pi(-) + c.c. -> J/psi pi(+)pi(-) and determine an upper limit at the 90% confidence level for the process e(+)e(-) -> Z(c)(4020)(+)pi(-) + c.c. -> J/psi pi(+)pi(-).

Evidence for the singly Cabibbo suppressed decay Lambda(+)(c) -> p eta and search for Lambda(+)(c) -> p pi(0)
- 2017
-
In: Physical Review D. - : AMER PHYSICAL SOC. - 2470-0010 .- 2470-0029. ; 95:11
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- We study the singly Cabibbo suppressed decays Lambda(+)(c) -> p eta and Lambda(+)(c) -> p pi(0) using Lambda(+)(c)(Lambda) over bar (-)(c) pairs produced by e(+)e(-) collisions at a center-of-mass energy of root s = 4.6 GeV. The data sample was collected by the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider and corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 567 pb(-1). We find the first evidence for the decay Lambda(+)(c) -> p eta with a statistical significance of 4.2 sigma and measure its branching fraction to be B(Lambda(+)(c) -> p eta) = (1.24 +/- 0.28(stat) +/- 0.10(sys)) x 10(-3). No significant Lambda(+)(c) -> p pi(0) signal is observed. We set an upper limit on its branching fraction B(Lambda(+)(c) -> p pi(0)) < 2.7 x 10(-4) at the 90% confidence level.

- Using (106.41 +/- 0.86) x 10(6) Psi(3686) events collected with the BESIII detector at BEPCII, we study for the first time the decay chi(cJ) -> eta'K+K- (J = 1, 2), where eta' -> gamma rho(0) and eta' -> eta pi(+)pi(-). A partial wave analysis in the covariant tensor amplitude formalism is performed for the decay chi(c1) -> eta'K+K-. Intermediate processes chi(c1) -> eta'f(2)'(1525) chi(c1) -> K-0*(1430)K-+/-(-/+) (K-0*(1430)(+/-) -> eta'K-+/-) are observed with statistical significances larger than 5 sigma, and their branching fractions are measured.

Measurement of e(+)e(-) -> pi(+)pi(-) psi(3686) from 4.008 to 4.600 GeV and observation of a charged structure in the pi(+/-)psi(3686) mass spectrum
- 2017
-
In: Physical Review D. - 2470-0010 .- 2470-0029. ; 96:3
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- We study the process e(+)e(-) -> p(+)p(-)psi(3686) using 5.1 fb(-1) of data collected at 16 center-of-mass energy (root s) points from 4.008 to 4.600 GeV by the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII collider. The measured Born cross sections for e(+)e(-) -> p(+)p(-)psi(3686) are consistent with previous results, but with much improved precision. A fit to the cross section shows contributions from two structures: the first has M = 4209.5 +/- 7.4 +/- 1.4 MeV/c(2) and Gamma = 80.1 +/- 24.6 +/- 2.9 MeV, and the second has M = 4383.8 +/- 4.2 +/- 0.8 MeV/c(2) and Gamma = 84.2 +/- 12.5 +/- 2.1 MeV, where the first errors are statistical and the second systematic. The lower-mass resonance is observed in the process e(+)e(-) -> p(+)p(-)psi(3686) for the first time with a statistical significance of 5.8 sigma. A charged charmoniumlike structure is observed in the pi(+/-)psi(3686) invariant mass spectrum for data at root s = 4.416 GeV. A fit with an S-wave Breit-Wigner function yields a mass M = 4032.1 +/- 2.4 MeV/c(2), where the errors are statistical only. However, there are still unresolved discrepancies between the fit model and data. The width of the intermediate state varies in a wide range for different kinematic regions within the data set. Therefore, no simple interpretation of the data has been found, and a future data sample with larger statistics and more theoretical input will be required to better understand this issue.

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Using ethorne-collision data collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.2 fb(-1) at center-of-mass energies (root s) from 4.009 to 4.600 GeV, the process e(+)e(-) -> pi(0)pi(0)psi(3686) is studied for the first time. The corresponding Born cross sections are measured and found to be half of those of the reaction e(+)e(-) -> pi(0)pi(0)psi(3686). This is consistent with the expectation from isospin symmetry. Furthermore, the Dalitz plots for pi(0)pi(0)psi(3686) are accordant with those of pi(0)pi(0)psi(3686) at all energy points, and a neutral analog to the structure in pi(+/-)psi(3686) around 4040 MeV/c(2) first observed at root s = 4.416 GeV is observed in the isospin neutral mode at the same energy.
