Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- By analyzing a data sample of 2.93 fb(-1) collected at root s = 3.773 GeV with the BESIII detector operated at the BEPCII storage rings, we measure the branching fractions B(D-0 -> omega eta) = (2.15 +/- 0.17(stat) +/- 0.15(sys)) x 10(-3), B(D-0 ->eta pi(0)) = (0.58 +/- 0.05(stat) +/- 0.05(sys)) x 10(-3), B(D-0 ->eta'pi(0)) = (0.93 +/- 0.11(stat) +/- 0.09(sys)) x 10(-3), B(D-0 -> eta eta) = (2.20 +/- 0.07(stat) +/- 0.06(sys)) x 10(-3) and B(D-0 -> eta'eta) = (0.94 degrees +/- 0.25(stat) +/- 0.11(sys)) x 10(-3). We note that B(D-0 -> omega eta) is measured for the first time and that B(D-0 -> eta eta) is measured with much improved precision.

Observation of an Anomalous Line Shape of the eta 'pi(+)pi(-) Mass Spectrum near the p(p)over-bar Mass Threshold in J/psi -> gamma eta 'pi(+)pi(-)
- 2016

In: Physical Review Letters. - 0031-9007 .- 1079-7114. ; 117:4
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Using 1.09 x 10(9) J/psi events collected by the BESIII experiment in 2012, we study the J / psi -> gamma eta'pi(+)pi(-) process and observe a significant abrupt change in the slope of the eta'pi(+)pi(-) invariant mass distribution at the proton-antiproton (p (p) over bar) mass threshold. We use two models to characterize the eta'pi(+)pi(-) line shape around 1.85 GeV/c(2): one that explicitly incorporates the opening of a decay threshold in the mass spectrum (Flatte formula), and another that is the coherent sum of two resonant amplitudes. Both fits show almost equally good agreement with data, and suggest the existence of either a broad state around 1.85 GeV/c(2) with strong couplings to the c final states or a narrow state just below the p (p) over bar mass threshold. Although we cannot distinguish between the fits, either one supports the existence of a p (p) over bar moleculelike state or bound state with greater than 7 sigma significance.

In: PHYSICAL REVIEW D. - 2470-0010. ; 94:3
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The process e(+)e(-) -> eta' J/psi is observed for the first time with a statistical significance of 8.6 sigma at center-of-mass energy root s = 4.226 GeV and 7.3 sigma at root s = 4.258 GeV using data samples collected with the BESIII detector. The Born cross sections are measured to be (3.7 +/- 0.7 +/- 0.3) and (3.9 +/- 0.8 +/- 0.3) pb at root s = 4.226 and 4.258 GeV, respectively, where the first errors are statistical and the second systematic. Upper limits at the 90% confidence level of the Born cross sections are also reported at other 12 energy points.

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Using a data sample collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII storage ring at a center-of-mass energy of root s = 4.600 GeV, we search for the production of e(+)e(-) -> phi chi(c0,1,2). A search is also performed for the charmonium-like state X(4140) in the radiative transition e(+)e(-) -> gamma X(4140) with X(4140) subsequently decaying into phi J/psi The processes e(+)e(-) -> phi chi(c1) and phi chi(c2) are observed for the first time, each with a statistical significance of more than 10 sigma, and the Born cross sections are measured to be (4.2(-1.0)(+1.7) +/- 0.3) and (6.7(-1.7)(+3.4) +/- 0.5) pb, respectively, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic. No significant signals are observed for e(+)e(-) -> phi chi(c0) and e(+)e(-) -> gamma X(4140) and upper limits on the Born cross sections at 90% C. L. are provided at root s = 4.600 GeV.

Observation of eta ' -> omega e(+)e(-)
- 2015

In: Physical Review D. - 1550-7998 .- 1550-2368. ; 92:5
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Based on a sample of eta' mesons produced in the radiative decay J/psi -> gamma eta' in 1.31 x 10(9) J/psi events collected with the BESIII detector, the decay eta' -> omega e(+)e(-) is observed for the first time, with a statistical significance of 8 sigma. The branching fraction is measured to be B(eta' -> omega e(+)e(-)) = (1.97 +/- 0.34(stat) +/- 0.17(syst)) x 10(-4), which is in agreement with theoretical predictions. The branching fraction of eta' -> omega gamma is also measured to be (2.55 +/- 0.03(stat) +/- 0.16(syst)) x 10(-2), which is the most precise measurement to date, and the relative branching fraction B(eta' -> omega e(+)e(-))/B(eta' -> omega gamma) is determined to be (7.71 +/- 1.34(stat) +/- 0.54(syst)) x 10(-3).

Observation of h(1)(1380) in the J/psi -> eta ' K(K)over-bar pi decay
- 2018
-
In: Physical Review D. - : AMER PHYSICAL SOC. - 2470-0010 .- 2470-0029. ; 98:7
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Using 1.31 x 10(9) J/psi events collected by the BESIII detector at the BEPCII e(+)e(-) collider, we report the first observation of the h(1)(1380) in J/psi -> eta'h(1)(1380) with a significance of more than ten standard deviations. The mass and width of the possible axial-vector strangeonium candidate h(1)(1380) are measured to be M = (1423.2 +/- 2.1 +/- 7.3) MeV/c(2) and Gamma = (90.3 +/- 9.8 +/- 17.5) MeV. The product branching fractions, assuming no interference, are determined to be B(J/psi -> eta'h(1)(1380)) x B(h(1)(1380) -> K*(892)K-+(-)+c.c.) = (1.51 +/- 0.09 +/- 0.21) x 10(-4) in eta'K+K-pi(0) mode and B(J/psi -> eta'h(1)(1380)) x B(h(1)(1380) -> K*(892)(K) over bar +c.c.) =(2.16 +/- 0.12 +/- 0.29) x 10(-4) in eta'(KSK +/-)-K-0 pi(-/+) mode. The first uncertainties are statistical and the second are systematic. Isospin symmetry violation is observed in the decays h(1)(1380) K*(892)K-+(-) + c.c. and h(1)(1380) -> K*(892)(0)(K) over bar (0) + c.c.. Based on the measured h(1)(1380) mass, the mixing angle between the states h(1)(1170) and h(1)(1380) is determined to be (35.9 +/- 2.6)degrees, consistent with theoretical expectations.

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- A search for radiative decays of the P-wave spin singlet charmonium resonance h(c) is performed based on 4.48 x 10(8) psi' events collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII storage ring. Events of the reaction channels h(c) -> gamma eta' and gamma eta are observed with a statistical significance of 8.4 sigma and 4.0 sigma, respectively, for the first time. The branching fractions of h(c) -> gamma eta' and h(c) -> gamma eta' are measured to be B(h(c) -> gamma eta') = (1.52 +/- 0.27 +/- 0.29) x 10(-3) and B(h(c) -> gamma eta) = (4.7 +/- 1.5 +/- 1.4) x 10(-4), respectively, where the first errors are statistical and the second are systematic uncertainties.

Observation of the Dalitz decay eta ' -> gamma e(+)e(-)
- 2015
-
In: Physical Review D. - 1550-7998 .- 1550-2368. ; 92:1
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- We report the first observation of the Dalitz decay eta' -> gamma e(+)e(-), based on a data sample of 1.31 billion J/psi events collected with the BESIII detector. The eta' mesons are produced via the J/psi -> gamma eta' decay process. The ratio (eta' -> gamma e(+)e(-))/Gamma (eta' -> gamma gamma) is measured to be (2.13 +/- 0.09(stat) +/- 0.07(sys)) x 10(-2). This corresponds to a branching fraction B(eta' -> gamma e(+)e(-)) = (4.69 +/- 0.20(stat) +/- 0.23(sys)) x 10(-4). The transition form factor is extracted and different expressions are compared to the measured dependence on the e(+)e(-) invariant mass. The results are consistent with the prediction of the vector meson dominance model.

Observation of the electromagnetic doubly OZI-suppressed decay J/psi -> phi pi(0)
- 2015
-
In: Physical Review D. - 1550-7998 .- 1550-2368. ; 91:11
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Using a sample of 1.31 billion J/psi events accumulated with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, we report the observation of the decay J/psi -> phi pi(0), which is the first evidence for a doubly Okubo-Zweig-Iizuka suppressed electromagnetic J/psi decay. A clear structure is observed in the K+K- mass spectrum around 1.02 GeV/c(2), which can be attributed to interference between J/psi -> phi pi(0) and J/psi -> K+K- pi(0) decays. Due to this interference, two possible solutions are found. The corresponding measured values of the branching fraction of J/psi -> phi pi(0) are [2.94 +/- 0.16(stat) +/- 0.16(syst)] x 10(-6) and [1.24 +/- 0.33(stat) +/- 0.30(syst)] x 10(-7).

Observation of the isospin-violating decay J/psi -> phi pi(0)f(0) (980)
- 2015

In: Physical Review D. - 1550-7998 .- 1550-2368. ; 92:1
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Using a sample of 1.31 x 10(9) J/psi events collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, the decays J/psi -> phi pi(+)pi(-)pi(0) and J/psi -> phi pi(0)pi(0)pi(0) are investigated. The isospin- violating decay J/psi -> phi pi(0)f(0)(980) with f(0)(980)-> pi pi is observed for the first time. The width of the f(0)(980) obtained from the dipion mass spectrum is found to be much smaller than the world average value. In the pi(0)f(0)(980) mass spectrum, there is evidence of f(1)(1285) production. By studying the decay J/psi ->eta', the branching fractions of eta' -> pi(+)pi(-)pi(0) and eta' -> pi(0)pi(0)pi(0), as well as their ratio, are also measured.
