Using data samples collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII collider at center-of-mass energies from 3.810 to 4.600 GeV, we perform a study of $e^{+}e^{-} to eta J/psi$ and $pi^0 J/psi$. Statistically significant signals of $e^{+}e^{-} to eta J/psi$ are observed at $sqrt{s}$ = 4.190, 4.210, 4.220, 4.230, 4.245, 4.260, 4.360 and 4.420 GeV, while no signals of $e^{+}e^{-} to pi^{0} J/psi$ are observed. The measured energy-dependent Born cross section for $e^{+}e^{-} to eta J/psi$ shows an enhancement around 4.2~GeV. The measurement is compatible with an earlier measurement by Belle, but with a significantly improved precision.
The process $e^{+}e^{-}to eta^{prime} J/psi$ is observed for the first time with a statistical significance of $8.6sigma$ at center-of-mass energy $sqrt{s} = 4.226$ GeV and $7.3sigma$ at $sqrt{s} = 4.258$ GeV using data samples collected with the BESIII detector. The Born cross sections are measured to be $(3.7 pm 0.7 pm 0.3)$ and $(3.9 pm 0.8 pm 0.3)$ pb at $sqrt{s} = 4.226$ 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.
The cross section for the process $e^+e^-to pi^+pi^-J/psi$ is measured precisely at center-of-mass energies from 3.77 to 4.60~GeV using 9~fb$^{-1}$ of data collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII storage ring. Two resonant structures are observed in a fit to the cross section. The first resonance has a mass of $(4222.0pm 3.1pm 1.4)$~MeV/$c^2$ and a width of $(44.1pm 4.3pm 2.0)$~MeV, while the second one has a mass of $(4320.0pm 10.4 pm 7.0)$~MeV/$c^2$ and a width of $(101.4^{+25.3}_{-19.7}pm 10.2)$~MeV, where the first errors are statistical and second ones are systematic. The first resonance agrees with the $Y(4260)$ resonance reported by previous experiments. The precision of its resonant parameters is improved significantly. The second resonance is observed in $e^+e^-to pi^+pi^-J/psi$ for the first time. The statistical significance of this resonance is estimated to be larger than $7.6sigma$. The mass and width of the second resonance agree with the $Y(4360)$ resonance reported by the $BABAR$ and Belle experiments within errors. Finally, the $Y(4008)$ resonance previously observed by the Belle experiment is not confirmed in the description of the BESIII data.
We have measured several branching ratios for $psi^prime$ decay using the data collected by FNAL E835 experiment during year 2000, obtaining ${cal B}(psi^prime to e^+ e^-) = 0.0068pm0.0001pm0.0004$, ${cal B}(psi^prime to J/psi pi^+ pi^-) = 0.292pm0.005pm0.018$, ${cal B}(psi^prime to J/psi pi^0 pi^0) = 0.167pm0.005pm0.014$ and ${cal B}(psi^prime to J/psi eta) = 0.028pm0.002pm0.002$. We also present a measurement of the dipion mass distribution in the decays $psi^prime to J/psi pi pi$.
We investigate the process $e^{+}e^{-} rightarrow Kbar{K}J/psi$ at center-of-mass energies from 4.189 to 4.600 GeV using 4.7 fb$^{-1}$ of data collected by the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider. The Born cross sections for the reactions $e^{+}e^{-} rightarrow K^{+}K^{-}J/psi$ and $K_{S}^{0} K_{S}^{0} J/psi$ are measured as a function of center-of-mass energy. The energy dependence of the cross section for $e^{+}e^{-} rightarrow K^{+}K^{-}J/psi$ is shown to differ from that for $pi^{+}pi^{-}J/psi$ in the region around the $Y(4260)$. In addition, there is evidence for a structure around 4.5 GeV in the $e^{+}e^{-} rightarrow K^{+}K^{-}J/psi$ cross section that is not present in $pi^{+}pi^{-}J/psi$.
The cross section for e^+e^- to pi^+pi^-J/psi between 3.8 and 5.5 GeV/c^2 is measured using a 548 fb^{-1} data sample collected on or near the Upsilon(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at KEKB. A peak near 4.25 GeV/c^2, corresponding to the so called Y(4260), is observed. In addition, there is another cluster of events at around 4.05 GeV/c^2. A fit using two interfering Breit-Wigner shapes describes the data better than one that uses only the Y(4260), especially for the lower mass side of the 4.25 GeV enhancement.
