The process $e^+ e^- to D_{s}^{*+} D_{s0}^{*-}(2317)+c.c.$ is observed for the first time with the data sample of 567~pb$^{-1}$ collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII collider at a center-of-mass energy $sqrt{s} = 4.6$~GeV. The statistical significance of the $D_{s0}^{*-}(2317)$ signal is $5.8sigma$ and the mass is measured to be ($2318.3pm 1.2pm 1.2$)~MeV/$c^{2}$. The absolute branching fraction $mathcal{B}(D_{s0}^{*-}(2317)to pi^0 D_{s}^{-})$ is measured as $1.00^{+0.00}_{-0.14}pm 0.14$ for the first time. The uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively.
Measurements are presented of the branching fractions of the decays $B_{s}^{0} to D_{s}^{mp} K^{pm}$ and $B^{0} to D_{s}^{-} K^{+}$ relative to the decays $B_{s}^{0} to D_{s}^{-} pi^{+}$ and $B^{0} to D^{-} pi^{+}$, respectively. The data used correspond to an integrated luminosity of 3.0 fb$^{-1}$ of proton-proton collisions. The ratios of branching fractions are $dfrac{mathcal{B}(B_{s}^{0} to D_{s}^{mp} K^{pm})}{mathcal{B}(B_{s}^{0} to D_{s}^{-} pi^{+})} = 0.0752 pm 0.0015 pm 0.0019$ and $dfrac{mathcal{B}(B^{0} to D_{s}^{-} K^{+})}{mathcal{B}(B^{0} to D^{-} pi^{+})} = 0.0129 pm 0.0005 pm 0.0008,$ where the uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively.
A branching fraction measurement of the $B^{0}rightarrow D_{s}^{+}pi^{-}$ decay is presented using proton-proton collision data collected with the LHCb experiment, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $5.0,$fb$^{-1}$. The branching fraction is found to be ${mathcal{B}(B^{0}rightarrow D_{s}^{+}pi^{-}) = (19.4 pm 1.8pm 1.3 pm 1.2)times 10^{-6}}$, where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second systematic and the third is due to the uncertainty on the $B^0 to D^{-}pi^{+}$, $D_{s}^{+}rightarrow K^{+}K^{-}pi^{+}$ and $D^{-}rightarrow K^{+}pi^{-}pi^{-}$ branching fractions. This is the most precise single measurement of this quantity to date. As this decay proceeds through a single amplitude involving a $b to u$ charged-current transition, the result provides information on non-factorisable strong interaction effects and the magnitude of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix element $V_{ub}$. Additionally, the collision energy dependence of the hadronisation-fraction ratio $f_s/f_d$ is measured through $bar{B}{}_{s}^{0}rightarrow D_{s}^{+}pi^{-}$ and $B^0 to D^{-}pi^{+}$ decays.
Utilizing a data set corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 6.32~$rm fb^{-1}$, recorded by the BESIII detector at center-of-mass energies between 4.178 and 4.226~GeV, we perform an amplitude analysis of the decay $D_{s}^{+} to K_{S}^{0}pi^{+}pi^{0}$ and determine the relative fractions and phase differences of different intermediate processes, which include $K_{S}^{0}rho(770)^{+}$, $K_{S}^{0}rho(1450)^{+}$, $K^{*}(892)^{0}pi^{+}$, $K^{*}(892)^{+}pi^{0}$, and $K^{*}(1410)^{0}pi^{+}$. Using a double-tag technique, and making an efficiency correction that relies on our knowledge of the phase-space distribution of the decays coming from the amplitude analysis, the absolute branching fraction is measured to be $mathcal{B}(D_{s}^{+} to K_{S}^{0}pi^{+}pi^{0})=(5.43pm0.30_{text{stat}}pm 0.15_{text{syst}})times 10^{-3}$.
The branching fraction of the decay $B_{s}^{0} rightarrow D_{s}^{(*)+}D_{s}^{(*)-}$ is measured using $pp$ collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $1.0fb^{-1}$, collected using the LHCb detector at a centre-of-mass energy of $7$TeV. It is found to be begin{align*} {mathcal{B}}(B_{s}^{0}rightarrow~D_{s}^{(*)+}D_{s}^{(*)-}) = (3.05 pm 0.10 pm 0.20 pm 0.34)%, end{align*} where the uncertainties are statistical, systematic, and due to the normalisation channel, respectively. The branching fractions of the individual decays corresponding to the presence of one or two $D^{*pm}_{s}$ are also measured. The individual branching fractions are found to be begin{align*} {mathcal{B}}(B_{s}^{0}rightarrow~D_{s}^{*pm}D_{s}^{mp}) = (1.35 pm 0.06 pm 0.09 pm 0.15)%, ewline{mathcal{B}}(B_{s}^{0}rightarrow~D_{s}^{*+}D_{s}^{*-}) = (1.27 pm 0.08 pm 0.10 pm 0.14)%. end{align*} All three results are the most precise determinations to date.
We report an amplitude analysis and branching fraction measurement of $D_{s}^{+} rightarrow K^{+}K^{-}pi^{+}$ decay using a data sample of 3.19 $rm fb^{-1}$ recorded with BESIII detector at a center-of-mass energy of 4.178 GeV. We perform a model-independent partial wave analysis in the low $K^{+}K^{-}$ mass region to determine the $K^{+}K^{-}$ S-wave lineshape, followed by an amplitude analysis of our very pure high-statistics sample. The amplitude analysis provides an accurate determination of the detection efficiency allowing us to measure the branching fraction ${cal B}(D_{s}^{+} rightarrow K^{+}K^{-}pi^{+}) = (5.47pm0.08_{{rm stat}}pm0.13_{{rm sys}})%$.
