With data samples collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII storage ring at center-of-mass energies from 4.009 to 4.420 GeV, the process $e^{+} e^{-} to gamma X(3872)$ is observed for the first time with a statistical significance of $6.3sigma$. The measured mass of the $X(3872)$ is ($3871.9pm 0.7_{rm stat.}pm 0.2_{rm sys.}$) MeV/$c^2$, in agreement with previous measurements. Measurements of the product of the cross section $sigma[e^{+} e^{-} to gamma X(3872)]$ and the branching fraction $mathcal{B}[X(3872) to pi^{+} pi^{-} J/psi]$ at center-of-mass energies 4.009, 4.229, 4.260, and 4.360 GeV are reported. Our measurements are consistent with expectations for the radiative transition process $Y(4260) to gamma X(3872)$.

We study the $e^+e^-togammaomega J/psi$ process using $11.6 ~rm fb^{-1}$ $e^+ e^-$ annihilation data taken at center-of-mass energies from $sqrt{s}=4.008~rm GeV$ to $4.600~rm GeV$ with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII storage ring. The $X(3872)$ resonance is observed for the first time in the $omega J/psi$ system with a significance of more than $5sigma$. The relative decay ratio of $X(3872)toomega J/psi$ and $pi^+pi^- J/psi$ is measured to be $mathcal{R}=1.6^{+0.4}_{-0.3}pm0.2$, where the first error is statistical and the second systematic (the same hereafter). The $sqrt{s}$-dependent cross section of $e^+e^-togamma X(3872)$ is also measured and investigated, and it can be described by a single Breit-Wigner resonance, referred to as the $Y(4200)$, with a mass of $4200.6^{+7.9}_{-13.3}pm3.0~{rm MeV}/c^2$ and a width of $115^{+38}_{-26}pm12~{rm MeV}$. In addition, to describe the $omega J/psi$ mass distribution above $3.9~rm GeV/c^2$, we need at least one additional Breit-Wigner resonance, labeled as $X(3915)$, in the fit. The mass and width of the $X(3915)$ are measured to be $3926.4pm2.2pm1.2~rm MeV/c^2$ and $3.8pm7.5pm2.6~rm MeV$, or $3932.6pm8.7pm4.7~rm MeV/c^2$ and $59.7pm15.5pm3.7~rm MeV$, respectively, depending on the fit models. The resonant parameters of the $X(3915)$ agree with those of the $Y(3940)$ in $Bto Komega J/psi$ and of the $X(3915)$ in $gammagammatoomega J/psi$ by the Belle and BABAR experiments within errors.
Using data samples collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII storage ring at center-of-mass energies from 4.178 to 4.600 GeV, we study the process $e^+e^-rightarrowpi^{0}X(3872)gamma$ and search for $Z_c(4020)^{0}rightarrow X(3872)gamma$. We find no significant signal and set upper limits on $sigma(e^+e^-rightarrowpi^{0}X(3872)gamma)cdotmathcal{B}(X(3872)rightarrowpi^{+}pi^{-}J/psi)$ and $sigma(e^+e^-rightarrowpi^{0}Z_c(4020)^{0})cdotmathcal{B}(Z_c(4020)^{0}rightarrow X(3872)gamma)cdotmathcal{B}(X(3872)rightarrowpi^{+}pi^{-}J/psi)$ for each energy point at $90%$ confidence level, which is of the order of several tenths pb.
We report the first observation of the Dalitz decay $eta to gamma e^+e^-$, based on a data sample of 1.31 billion $J/psi$ events collected with the BESIII detector. The $eta$ mesons are produced via the $J/psi to gamma eta$ decay process. The ratio $Gamma(eta to gamma e^+ e^-)/Gamma(etatogammagamma)$ is measured to be $(2.13pm0.09(text{stat.})pm0.07(text{sys.}))times10^{-2}$. This corresponds to a branching fraction ${cal B}(eta to gamma e^+e^-)= (4.69 pm0.20(text{stat.})pm0.23(text{sys.}))times10^{-4}$. 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.
We report the observation of the $X(3823)$ in the process $e^+e^-to pi^+pi^-X(3823) to pi^+pi^-gammachi_{c1}$ with a statistical significance of $6.2sigma$, in data samples at center-of-mass energies $sqrt{s}=$4.230, 4.260, 4.360, 4.420 and 4.600~GeV collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII electron positron collider. The measured mass of the $X(3823)$ is $(3821.7pm 1.3pm 0.7)$~MeV/$c^2$, where the first error is statistical and the second systematic, and the width is less than $16$~MeV at the 90% confidence level. The products of the Born cross sections for $e^+e^-to pi^+pi^-X(3823)$ and the branching ratio $mathcal{B}[X(3823)to gammachi_{c1,c2}]$ are also measured. These measurements are in good agreement with the assignment of the $X(3823)$ as the $psi(1^3D_2)$ charmonium state.
Using data samples of 89.5~fb$^{-1}$, 711.0~fb$^{-1}$, and 121.4~fb$^{-1}$ collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+e^-$ collider at center-of-mass energies 10.52 GeV, 10.58 GeV, and 10.867 GeV, respectively, we study the exclusive reactions $e^+e^-togammachi_{cJ}$ ($J = 0,~1,~2$) and $e^+e^-togammaeta_c$. A significant $gamma chi_{c1}$ signal is observed for the first time at $sqrt{s}=10.58$ GeV with a significance of $5.1sigma$ including systematic uncertainties. No significant excesses for $gamma chi_{c0}$, $gamma chi_{c2}$, and $gamma eta_c$ final states are found, and we set 90% credibility level upper limits on the Born cross sections ($sigma_{rm B}$) at 10.52 GeV, 10.58 GeV, and 10.867~GeV. Together with cross sections measured by BESIII at lower center-of-mass energies, the energy dependency of $sigma_{rm B}(e^+e^-togammachi_{c1})$ is obtained.
