We present a precision study of the $psiptopi^0 J/psi$ and $eta J/psi$ decay modes. The measurements are obtained using $106times10^6$ $psi$ events accumulated with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII $ee$ collider operating at a center-of-mass energy corresponding to the $psip$ mass. We obtain $mathcal{B}(psiptopi^0 J/psi)=(1.26pm0.02{rm (stat.)}pm0.03{rm (syst.)})times 10^{-3}$ and $mathcal{B}(psiptoeta J/psi)=(33.75pm0.17{rm (stat.)}pm0.86{rm (syst.)})times 10^{-3}$. The branching fraction ratio $R=frac{mathcal{B}(psiptopi^0 J/psi)}{mathcal{B}(psiptoeta J/psi)}$ is determined to be $(3.74pm0.06 {rm(stat.)}pm0.04 {rm(syst.)})times 10^{-2}$. The precision of these measurements of $mathcal{B}(psiptopi^{0} J/psi)$ and $R$ represent a significant improvement over previously published values.

Based on a sample of $(1310.6 pm 7.0) times 10^6~J/psi$ events collected with the BESIII detector, we present measurements of $J/psi$ and $eta^prime$ absolute branching fractions using the process $J/psirightarrowgammaeta^prime$. By analyzing events where the radiative photon converts into an $e^+e^-$ pair, the branching fraction for $J/psi rightarrow gamma eta^prime$ is measured to be $(5.27pm0.03pm0.05)times 10^{-3}$. The absolute branching fractions of the five dominant decay channels of the $eta^prime$ are then measured independently for the first time and are determined to be $mathcal{B}(eta^prime rightarrow gamma pi^{+} pi^{-})$ = (29.90$pm$0.03$pm$0.55)%, $mathcal{B}(eta^prime rightarrow eta pi^{+} pi^{-})$ = (41.24$pm$0.08$pm$1.24)%, $mathcal{B}(eta^prime rightarrow eta pi^{0} pi^{0})$ = (21.36$pm$0.10$pm$0.92)%, $mathcal{B}(eta^prime rightarrow gamma omega)$ = (2.489$pm$0.018$pm$0.074)%, and $mathcal{B}(eta^prime rightarrow gamma gamma)$ = (2.331$pm$0.012$pm$0.035)%, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic.
Using 482 pb$^{-1}$ of data taken at $sqrt{s}=4.009$ GeV, we measure the branching fractions of the decays of $D^{*0}$ into $D^0pi^0$ and $D^0gamma$ to be $BR(D^{*0} to D^0pi^0)=(65.5pm 0.8pm 0.5)%$ and $BR(D^{*0} to D^0gamma)=(34.5pm 0.8pm 0.5)%$ respectively, by assuming that the $D^{*0}$ decays only into these two modes. The ratio of the two branching fractions is $BR(D^{*0} to D^0pi^0)/BR(D^{*0} to D^0gamma) =1.90pm 0.07pm 0.05$, which is independent of the assumption made above. The first uncertainties are statistical and the second ones systematic. The precision is improved by a factor of three compared to the present world average values.
By analyzing a data sample of 2.93 fb$^{-1}$ collected at $sqrt s=$ 3.773 GeV with the BESIII detector operated at the BEPCII storage rings, we measure the branching fractions ${mathcal B}(D^0toomegaeta)=(2.15pm0.17_{rm stat.}pm0.15_{rm sys.})times 10^{-3}$, ${mathcal B}(D^0toetapi^0)=(0.58pm0.05_{rm stat.}pm0.05_{rm sys.})times 10^{-3}$, ${mathcal B}(D^0toeta^primepi^0)=(0.93pm0.11_{rm stat.}pm0.09_{rm sys.})times 10^{-3}$, ${mathcal B}(D^0toetaeta)=(2.20pm0.07_{rm stat.}pm0.06_{rm sys.})times 10^{-3}$ and ${mathcal B}(D^0toeta^primeeta)=(0.94pm0.25_{rm stat.}pm0.11_{rm sys.})times 10^{-3}$. We note that ${mathcal B}(D^0to omegaeta)$ is measured for the first time and that ${mathcal B}(D^0to etaeta)$ is measured with much improved precision.
Using a sample of 225.3 million $jpsi$ events collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII $e^+e^-$ collider in 2009, searches for the decays of $eta$ and $eta^primetopi^+ e^- bar{ u}_e +c.c.$ in $jpsi to phi eta$ and $phieta^prime$ are performed. The $phi$ signals, which are reconstructed in $K^+K^-$ final states, are used to tag $eta$ and $eta^prime$ semileptonic decays. No signals are observed for either $eta$ or $eta^prime$, and upper limits at the 90% confidence level are determined to be $7.3times 10^{-4}$ and $5.0times 10^{-4}$ for the ratios $frac{{mathcal B}(etato pi^+ e^- bar{ u}_e +c.c.)}{{mathcal B}(eta to pippimpiz)}$ and $frac{{mathcal B}(eta^primeto pi^+ e^-bar{ u}_e +c.c.)}{{mathcal B}(eta^prime to pippimeta)}$, respectively. These are the first upper limit values determined for $eta$ and $eta^prime$ semileptonic weak decays.
We report measurements of the branching fractions of singly Cabibbo-suppressed decays $Lambda_c^+ to p eta$ and $Lambda_c^+ to p pi^0$ using the full Belle data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 980.6 $rm fb^{-1}$. The data were collected by the Belle detector at the KEKB $e^{+}$$e^{-}$ asymmetric-energy collider. A clear $Lambda_c^+$ signal is seen in the invariant mass distribution of $p eta$. The signal yield of the $Lambda_c^+ to p eta$ process is $7734 pm 263$; from this, we measure the ratio of branching fractions ${cal B}(Lambda_c^+ to p eta)/{cal B}(Lambda_c^+ to p K^- pi^+) = (2.258 pm 0. 077(rm stat. ) pm 0.136(rm syst. ))times 10^{-2}$, from which we infer the branching fraction ${cal B}(Lambda_c^+ to p eta) = (1.42 pm 0.05(rm stat.) pm 0.11(rm syst.)) times 10^{-3}$. In addition, no significant signal for $Lambda_c^+ to p pi^0$ is found so an upper limit on the branching fraction of ${cal B}(Lambda_c^+ to p pi^0)<8.0 times 10^{-5}$ at 90% credibility level is set, more than three times better than the best current upper limit.
