Using a data sample collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII storage ring at a center-of-mass energy of $sqrt{s}=4.600$ GeV, we search for the production of $e^{+}e^{-} to phichi_{c0,1,2}$ and the charmonium-like state $Y(4140)$ in the radiative transition $e^{+}e^{-} to gamma Y(4140)$ with $Y(4140)$ subsequently decaying into $phi J/psi$. The processes $e^{+}e^{-} to phichi_{c1}$ and $phichi_{c2}$ are observed for the first time, each with a statistical significance of more than 10sigma, and the Born cross sections are measured to be $(4.2^{+1.7}_{-1.0}pm 0.3)$ pb and $(6.7^{+3.4}_{-1.7}pm 0.5)$ pb, respectively, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic. No significant signals are observed for $e^{+}e^{-} to phichi_{c0}$ and $e^{+}e^{-} to gamma Y(4140)$ and upper limits on the Born cross sections at $90%$ confidence level are provided at $sqrt{s}=4.600$ GeV.
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.
The cross section of the process $e^+e^- rightarrow etaJ/psi$ is measured at center-of-mass energies from $sqrt{s} =$ 4.178 to 4.600 GeV using data samples corresponding to a total integrated luminosity of 11 fb$^{-1}$ collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII storage ring. The dependence of the cross section on $sqrt{s}$ shows an enhancement around $4.2$ GeV. While the shape of the cross section cannot be fully explained with a single $psi(4160)$ or $psi(4260)$ state, a coherent sum of the two states does provide a reasonable description of the data.
For the first time we search for the $eta_{c2}(1D)$ in $e^+e^-togammaeta_{c2}(1D)$ at $sqrt{s}$ = 10.52, 10.58, and 10.867 GeV with data samples of 89.5 fb$^{-1}$, 711 fb$^{-1}$, and 121.4 fb$^{-1}$, respectively, accumulated with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric energy electron-positron collider. No significant $eta_{c2}(1D)$ signal is observed in the mass range between 3.8 and 3.88 GeV/$c^2$. The upper limit at 90% confidence level on the product of the Born cross section for $e^+e^- to gammaeta_{c2}(1D)$ and branching fraction for $eta_{c2}(1D)to gamma h_c(1P)$ is determined to be $sigma(e^+e^- to gammaeta_{c2}(1D)){cal B}(eta_{c2}(1D)to gamma h_c(1P))$ $<$ 4.9 fb at $sqrt{s}$ near 10.6 GeV.
Using $e^{+}e^{-}$ collision data collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.2 $fb^{-1}$ at center-of-mass energies ($sqrt{s}$) from 4.009 to 4.600 GeV, the process $e^{+}e^{-} to pi^{0} pi^{0}psi(3686)$ is studied for the first time. The corresponding Born cross sections are measured and found to be half of those of the reaction $e^{+}e^{-} to pi^{+}pi^{-}psi(3686)$. This is consistent with the expectation from isospin symmetry. Furthermore, the Dalitz plots for $pi^{0}pi^{0}psi(3686)$ are accordant with those of $pi^{+}pi^{-}psi(3686)$ at all energy points, and a neutral analogue to the structure in $pi^pm psi(3686)$ around 4040 MeV/$c^{2}$ first observed at $sqrt{s}$=4.416 GeV is observed in the isospin neutral mode at the same energy.
Using a total of $5.25~{rm fb}^{-1}$ of $e^{+}e^{-}$ collision data with center-of-mass energies from 4.236 to 4.600 GeV, we report the first observation of the process $e^{+}e^{-}to etapsi(2S)$ with a statistical significance of $5sigma$. The data sets were collected by the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII storage ring. We measure the yield of events integrated over center-of-mass energies and also present the energy dependence of the measured cross section.
