- The study of baryon excitation spectra provides insight into the inner structure of baryons. So far, most of the world-wide efforts have been directed towards N∗ and Δ spectroscopy. Nevertheless, the study of the double and triple strange baryon spectrum provides independent information to the N∗ and Δ spectra. The future antiproton experiment P¯ANDA will provide direct access to final states containing a Ξ¯ Ξ pair, for which production cross sections up to μb are expected in p¯p reactions. With a luminosity of L= 10 31 cm- 2 s- 1 in the first phase of the experiment, the expected cross sections correspond to a production rate of ∼106events/day. With a nearly 4 π detector acceptance, P¯ANDA will thus be a hyperon factory. In this study, reactions of the type p¯p → Ξ¯ +Ξ∗ - as well as p¯p → Ξ¯ ∗ +Ξ- with various decay modes are investigated. For the exclusive reconstruction of the signal events a full decay tree fit is used, resulting in reconstruction efficiencies between 3 and 5%. This allows high statistics data to be collected within a few weeks of data taking.

- The antiproton experiment PANDA at FAIR is designed to bring hadron physics to a new level in terms of scope, precision and accuracy. In this work, its unique capability for studies of hyperons is outlined. We discuss ground-state hyperons as diagnostic tools to study non-perturbative aspects of the strong interaction, and fundamental symmetries. New simulation studies have been carried out for two benchmark hyperon-antihyperon production channels: p¯ p→ Λ¯ Λ and p¯ p→ Ξ¯ +Ξ-. The results, presented in detail in this paper, show that hyperon-antihyperon pairs from these reactions can be exclusively reconstructed with high efficiency and very low background contamination. In addition, the polarisation and spin correlations have been studied, exploiting the weak, self-analysing decay of hyperons and antihyperons. Two independent approaches to the finite efficiency have been applied and evaluated: one standard multidimensional efficiency correction approach, and one efficiency independent approach. The applicability of the latter was thoroughly evaluated for all channels, beam momenta and observables. The standard method yields good results in all cases, and shows that spin observables can be studied with high precision and accuracy already in the first phase of data taking with PANDA.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Simulation results for future measurements of electromagnetic proton form factors at P ¯ ANDA (FAIR) within the PandaRoot software framework are reported. The statistical precision with which the proton form factors can be determined is estimated. The signal channel p¯ p→ e+e- is studied on the basis of two different but consistent procedures. The suppression of the main background channel, i.e.p¯ p→ π+π-, is studied. Furthermore, the background versus signal efficiency, statistical and systematical uncertainties on the extracted proton form factors are evaluated using two different procedures. The results are consistent with those of a previous simulation study using an older, simplified framework. However, a slightly better precision is achieved in the PandaRoot study in a large range of momentum transfer, assuming the nominal beam conditions and detector performance.

- The exclusive charmonium production process in (P) over barp annihilation with an associated pi 0 meson (p) over barp -> J/psi pi(0) is studied in the framework of QCD collinear factorization. The feasibility of measuring this reaction through the J/psi -> e(+) e(-) decay channel with the AntiProton ANnihilation at DArmstadt ((P) over bar ANDA) experiment is investigated. Simulations on signal reconstruction efficiency as well as the background rejection from various sources including the (P) over barp -> pi(+)pi(-)pi(0) and (p) over barp -> J/psi pi(0)pi(0) reactions are performed with PANDAROOT, the simulation and analysis software framework of the (P) over bar ANDA experiment. It is shown that the measurement can be done at (P) over bar ANDA with significant constraining power under the assumption of an integrated luminosity attainable in four to five months of data taking at the maximum design luminosity.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Bound nuclear systems with two units of strangeness are still poorly known despite their importance for many strong interaction phenomena. Stored antiprotons beams in the GeV range represent an unparalleled factory for various hyperon-antihyperon pairs. Their outstanding large production probability in antiproton collisions will open the floodgates for a series of new studies of systems which contain two or even more units of strangeness at the PANDA experiment at FAIR. For the first time, high resolution gamma-spectroscopy of doubly strange Lambda Lambda-hypernuclei will be performed, thus complementing measurements of ground state decays of Lambda Lambda-hypernuclei at J-PARC or possible decays of particle unstable hypernuclei in heavy ion reactions. High resolution spectroscopy of multistrange Xi(-) -atoms will be feasible and even the production of Omega(-) -atoms will be within reach. The latter might open the door to the vertical bar S vertical bar = 3 world in strangeness nuclear physics, by the study of the hadronic Omega(-) -nucleus interaction. For the first time it will be possible to study the behavior of Xi(+) in nuclear systems under well controlled conditions.

- The decay D+-> K-S(0)pi(+)pi(+)pi(-) is studied with an amplitude analysis using a data set of 2.93 fb(-1) of e(+)e(-) collisions at the psi(3770) peak accumulated by the BESIII detector. Intermediate states and nonresonant components, and their relative fractions and phases, have been determined. The significant amplitudes, which contribute to the model that best fits the data, are composed of five quasitwo-body decays K(S)(0)a(1)(1260)(+), (K) over bar (1)(1270)(0)pi(+) (K) over bar (1)(1400)(0)pi(+), (K) over bar (1)(1650)(0)pi(+), and (K) over bar (1460)(0)pi(+), a three-body decay K-S(0)pi(+)rho(0), as well as a nonresonant component K-S(0)pi(+)pi(+)pi(-). The dominant amplitude is K(S)(0)a(1)(1260)(+), with a fit fraction of (40.3 +/- 2.1 +/- 2.9)%, where the first and second uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively.

- We present the first amplitude analysis of the decay D-s(+) -> pi(+)pi(0)eta. We use an e(+)e(-) collision data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.19 fb(-1) collected with the BESIII detector at a center-of-mass energy of 4.178 GeV. We observe for the first time the W-annihilation dominant decays D-s(+) -> a(0)(980)(+)pi(0) and D-s(+) -> a(0)(980)(0)pi(+). We measure the absolute branching fraction B(D-s(+) -> a(0)(980)(+(0))pi(0(+)), a(0)(980)(+(0)) -> pi(+(0)())eta = (1.46 +/- 0.15(stat )+/- 0.23 sys)%, which is larger than the branching fractions of other measured pure W-annihilation decays by at least one order of magnitude. In addition, we measure the branching fraction of D-s(+) -> pi(+)pi(0)eta with significantly improved precision.

Amplitude analysis of the KSKS system produced in radiative J /psi decays

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- An amplitude analysis of the KSKS system produced in radiative J/psi decays is performed using the (1310.6 +/- 7.0) x 10(6) nip decays collected by the BESIII detector. Two approaches are presented. A mass-dependent analysis is performed by parametrizing the KSKS invariant mass spectrum as a sum of Breit-aligner line shapes. Additionally, a mass-independent analysis is performed to extract a piecewise function that describes the dynamics of the KSKS system while making minimal assumptions about the properties and number of poles in the amplitude. The dominant amplitudes in the mass-dependent analysis include the f(0)(1710), f(0)(2200), and f(2)'(1525). The mass-independent results, which are made available as input for further studies, are consistent with those of the mass-dependent analysis and are useful for a systematic study of hadronic interactions. The branching fraction of radiative J/psi decays to KSKS is measured to be (8.1 +/- 0.4) x 10(-4), where the uncertainty is systematic and the statistical uncertainty is negligible.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- 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) over bar (0)e(+)nu(e) and D+ -> pi(0)e(+)nu(e). We measure the absolute decay branching fractions B(D+ -> (K) over bar (0)e(+)nu(e)) = (8.60 +/- 0.06 +/- 0.15) x 10(-2) and B(D+ -> pi(0)e(+)nu(e)) = (3.63 +/- 0.08 +/- 0.05) x 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 Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (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(+)(pi)(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.

- Using a sample of 1.31 x 10(9) J/Psi events collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, we study the decays of J/Psi -> KSKL and KSKS. The branching fraction of J/Psi -> KSKL is determined to be B(J/Psi -> KSKL) = (1.93 +/- 0.01 (stat) +/- 0.05 (syst)) x 10(-4), which significantly improves on previous measurements. No clear signal is observed for the J/Psi -> KSKS process, and the upper limit at the 95% confidence level for its branching fraction is determined to be B(J/Psi -> KSKS) < 1.4 x 10(-8), which improves on the previous searches by 2 orders in magnitude and reaches the order of the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen expectation.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The exclusive process e(+)e(-) -> Lambda(Lambda) over bar, with Lambda -> p pi(-) and (Lambda) over bar -> (p) over bar pi(+), has been studied at root s = 2.396 GeV for measurement of the timelike Lambda electric and magnetic form factors, G(E) and G(M). A data sample, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 66.9 pb(-1), was collected with the BESIII detector for this purpose. A multidimensional analysis with a complete decomposition of the spin structure of the reaction enables a determination of the modulus of the ratio R = vertical bar G(E)/G(M)vertical bar and, for the first time for any baryon, the relative phase Delta Phi = Phi(E) - Phi(M). The resulting values are R = 0.96 +/- 0.14(stat) +/- 0.02(syst) and Phi(F) = 37 degrees +/- 12 degrees (stat) +/- 6 degrees (syst), respectively. These are obtained using the recently established and most precise value of the asymmetry parameter alpha(Lambda) = 0.750 +/- 0.010 measured by BESIII. In addition, the cross section is measured with unprecedented precision to be sigma = 118.7 +/- 5.3(stat) +/- 5.1(syst) pb, which corresponds to an effective form factor of vertical bar G vertical bar = 0.123 +/- 0.003(stat) +/- 0.003(syst). The contribution from two-photon exchange is found to be negligible. Our result enables the first complete determination of baryon timelike electromagnetic form factors.

- The cross section of the process e(+) e(-) -> eta ' J/ psi is measured at center-of-mass (c.m.) energies from root S = 4.178 to 4.600 GeV using data samples corresponding to a total integrated luminosity of 11 fb(-1) collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII storage ring. The dependence of the cross section on root S shows an enhancement around 4.2 GeV. While the shape of the cross section cannot be fully explained with a single psi(4160) or psi(4260) state, a coherent sum of the two states does provide a reasonable description of the data.

The data were collected using the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider. An enhancement at root s = 2.232 GeV is observed, very close to the e(+)e(-) -> Lambda(Lambda) over bar production threshold. A similar enhancement at the same c.m. energy is observed in the e(+)e(-) -> phi K+ K- cross section. The energy dependence of the K+ K- K+ K- and phi K+ K- cross sections differs significantly from that of e(+)e(-) -> phi pi(+)pi(-).

The dependence of the cross section on root s shows a resonant structure with mass of (4218.5 +/- 1.6(stat) +/- 4.0(syst)) MeV/c(2) and width of (28.2 +/- 3.9(stat) +/- 1.6(syst)) MeV, respectively. This observation confirms and improves upon the result of a previous study. The angular distribution of the e(+) e(-) ->omega chi(C0) process is extracted for the first time.

- Using a low-background sample of 2.6 x 10(5) J/psi -> omega eta(omega -> pi(+) pi(-) pi(0), eta -> gamma gamma) events, about 5 times larger statistics than previous experiments, we present a Dalitz plot analysis of the decay omega -> pi(+) pi(-) pi(0). It is found that the Dalitz plot distribution differs from the pure P-wave phase space with a statistical significance of 18.9 sigma. The parameters from the fit to data are in reasonable agreement with those without the cross-channel effect within the dispersive framework, which indicates that the cross-channel effect in omega -> pi(+) pi(-) pi(0) is not significant.

- We report the most precise measurements to date of the strong-phase parameters between D-0 and (D) over bar (0) decays to K-S,L(0)pi(+)pi(-) using a sample of 2.93 fb(-1) of e(+) e(-) annihilation data collected at a center-of-mass energy of 3.773 GeV with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider. Our results provide the key inputs for a binned model-independent determination of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa angle gamma/phi(3) with B decays. Using our results, the decay model sensitivity to the gamma/phi(3 )measurement is expected to be between 0.7 degrees and 1.2 degrees, approximately a factor of three smaller than that achievable with previous measurements, based on the studies of the simulated data. The improved precision of this work ensures that measurements of gamma/phi(3) will not be limited by knowledge of strong phases for the next decade. Furthermore, our results provide critical input for other flavor-physics investigations, including charm mixing, other measurements of CP violation, and the measurement of strong-phase parameters for other D-decay modes.

- Using a 3.19 fb(-1) data sample collected at an e(+)e(-) center-of-mass energy of E-cm = 4.178 GeV with the BESIII detector, we measure the branching fraction of the leptonic decay D-s(+) -> mu(+)nu(mu) to be BDs+ -> mu+nu mu = (5.49 +/- 0.16(stat) +/- 0.15(syst)) x 10(-3). Combining our branching fraction with the masses of the D-s(+) and mu(+) and the lifetime of the D-s(+), we determine f(Ds+)vertical bar V-cs vertical bar = 246.2 +/- 3.6(stat) +/- 3.5(syst) MeV. Using the c -> s quark mixing matrix element vertical bar V-cs vertical bar determined from a global standard model fit, we evaluate the D-s(+) decay constant f(Ds+) = 252.9 +/- 3.7(stat) +/- 3.6(syst) MeV. Alternatively, using the value of f(Ds+) calculated by lattice quantum chromodynamics, we find vertical bar V-cs vertical bar = 0.985 +/- 0.014(stat) +/- 0.014(syst). These values of BDs+ -> mu+nu mu, f(Ds+)vertical bar V-cs vertical bar, f(Ds+) and vertical bar V-cs vertical bar are each the most precise results to date.

- We report a measurement of the observed cross sections of e(+)e(-) -> J/psi X based on 3.21 fb(-1) of data accumulated at energies from 3.645 to 3.891 GeV with the BESIII detector operated at the BEPCII collider. In analysis of the cross sections, we measured the decay branching fractions of B(psi(3686 -> J/psi X) = (64.4 +/- 0.6 +/- 1.6)% and B(psi(3770) -> J/psi X) = (0.5 +/- 0.2 +/- 0.1)% for the first time. The energy-dependent line shape of these cross sections cannot be well described by two Breit-Wigner (BW) amplitudes of the expected decays psi(3686) -> J/psi X and psi(3770) -> J/psi X. Instead, it can be better described with one more BW amplitude of the decay R(3760) -> J/psi X. Under this assumption, we extracted the R(3760) mass M-R(3760) = 3766.2 +/- 3.8 +/- 0.4 MeV/c(2), total width Gamma(tot)(R(3760)) = 22.2 +/- 5.9 +/- 1.4 MeV, and product of leptonic width and decay branching fraction Gamma(ee)(R(3760)) B[R(3760) -> J/psi X] = (79.4 +/- 85.5 +/- 11.7) eV. The significance of the R(3760) is 5.3 sigma. The first uncertainties of these measured quantities are from fits to the cross sections and second systematic.

- We study the hadronic decays of Lambda(+)(C) to the final states Sigma(+) eta and Sigma(+) eta', using an e(+) e(-) annihilation data sample of 567 pb(-1) taken at a center-of-mass energy of 4.6 GeV with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider. We find evidence for the decays Lambda(+)(C) -> Sigma(+) eta and Sigma(+) eta' with statistical significance of and, respectively. Normalizing to the reference decays Lambda(+)(C) -> Sigma(+) pi(0) and Sigma(+) omega, we obtain the ratios of the branching fractions B(Lambda(+)(C) -> Sigma(+) eta)/B(Lambda(+)(C) -> Sigma(+) pi(0)) and B(Lambda(+)(C) -> Sigma(+) eta')/B(Lambda(+)(C) -> Sigma(+) omega) to be 0.35 +/- 0.16 +/- 0.02 and 0.86 +/- 0.34 +/- 0.04, respectively. The upper limits at the 90% confidence level are set to be B(Lambda(+)(C) -> Sigma(+) eta)/B(Lambda(+)(C) -> Sigma(+) pi(0)) < 0.58 and B(Lambda(+)(C) -> Sigma(+) eta')/B(Lambda(+)(C) -> Sigma(+) omega) < 1.2. Using BESIII measurements of the branching fractions of the reference decays, we determine B(Lambda(+)(C) -> Sigma(+) eta) = (0.41 +/- 0.19 +/- 0.05)% (<0.68%) and B(Lambda(+)(C) -> Sigma(+) eta') = (1.34 +/- 0.53 +/- 0.19)% (<1.9%). Here, the first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic. The obtained branching fraction of Lambda(+)(C) -> Sigma(+) eta is consistent with the previous measurement, and the branching fraction of Lambda(+)(C) -> Sigma(+) eta' is measured for the first time.

We measure the Born cross section at each energy using a combination of twelve eta(c)(1S) decay channels. We also combine all six energies under various assumptions for the energy-dependence of the cross section. If the process is assumed to proceed via the Y(4260), we measure a peak Born cross section sigma(peak)(e(+)e(-) -> gamma eta(c)(1S)) = 2.11 +/- 0.49 (stat.) +/- 0.36 (syst.) pb with a statistical significance of 4.2 sigma.

- The cross section of the process e(+) e(-) -> pi(+) (DD)-D-0*(-) for center-of-mass energies from 4.05 to 4.60 GeV is measured precisely using data samples collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII storage ring. Two enhancements are clearly visible in the cross section around 4.23 and 4.40 GeV. Using several models to describe the dressed cross section yields stable parameters for the first enhancement, which has a mass of 4228.6 +/- 4.1 +/- 6.3 MeV/c(2) and a width of 77.0 +/- 6.8 +/- 6.3 MeV, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second ones are systematic. Our resonant mass is consistent with previous observations of the Y(4220) state and the theoretical prediction of a D (D) over bar (1)(2420) molecule. This result is the first observation of Y(4220) associated with an open-charm final state. Fits with three resonance functions with additional Y(4260), Y(4320), Y(4360), psi(4415), or a new resonance do not show significant contributions from either of these resonances. The second enhancement is not from a single known resonance. It could contain contributions from psi(4415) and other resonances, and a detailed amplitude analysis is required to better understand this enhancement.

- The process e(+)e(-) -> pK(S)(0)(n) over barK(-) + c.c. and its intermediate processes are studied for the first time, using data samples collected with the BESIII detector at BEPCII at center-of-mass energies of 3.773, 4.008, 4.226, 4.258, 4.358, 4.416, and 4.600 GeV, with a total integrated luminosity of 7.4 fb(-1). The Born cross section of e(+)e(-) -> pK(S)(0)(n) over barK(-) + c.c. is measured at each center-of-mass energy, but no significant resonant structure in the measured cross-section line shape between 3.773 and 4.600 GeV is observed. No evident structure is detected in the pK(-), nK(S)(0), pK(S)(0), nK(+), p (n) over bar, or (KSK-)-K-0 invariant mass distributions except for Lambda(1520). The Born cross sections of e(+)e(-) -> Lambda(1520)(n) over barK(S)(0) + c.c. and e(+)e(-) -> Lambda(1520)(p) over barK(+) + c.c. are measured, and the 90% confidence level upper limits on the Born cross sections of e(+)e(-) -> Lambda(1520)(Lambda) over bar (1520) are determined at the seven center-of-mass energies. There is an evident difference in line shape and magnitude of the measured cross sections between e(+)e(-) -> Lambda(1520)(-> pK(-))(n) over barK(S)(0) and e(+)e(-) -> pK-(Lambda) over bar (1520)(-> (n) over barK(S)(0)).

- Using E1 radiative transitions psi(3686) -> gamma chi(cJ) from a sample of (448.1 +/- 2.9) x 10(6) psi(3686) events collected with the BESIII detector, the decays chi(cJ) -> Sigma(+)(p) over barK(S)(0) + c.c.(J = 0,1,2) are studied. The decay branching fractions are measured to be B(chi(c0) -> Sigma(+)(p) over barK(S)(0) + c.c.) = (3.52 +/- 0.19 +/- 0.21) x 10(-4), B(chi(c1) -> Sigma(+)(p) over barK(S)(0) + c.c.) = (1.53 +/- 0.10 +/- 0.08) x 10(-4), and B(chi(c2) -> Sigma(+)(p) over barK(S)(0) + c.c.) = (8.25 +/- 0.83 +/- 0.49) x 10(-5), where the first and second uncertainties are the statistical and systematic ones, respectively. No evident intermediate resonances arc observed in the studied processes.

- We study the direct production of the JPC=1++ charmonium state χc1(1P) in electron-positron annihilation by carrying out an energy scan around the mass of the χc1(1P). The data were collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider. An interference pattern between the signal process e+e−→χc1(1P)→γJ/ψ→γμ+μ− and the background processes e+e−→γISRJ/ψ→γISRμ+μ− and e+e−→γISRμ+μ− is observed by combining all the data samples. The χc1(1P) signal is observed with a significance of 5.1σ. This is the first observation of a C-even state directly produced in e+e− annihilation. The electronic width of the χc1(1P) resonance is determined to be Γee=(0.12+0.13−0.08) eV, which is of the same order of magnitude as theoretical calculations.
