Using 448.1 $times$ $10^{6}$ $psi(3686)$ events collected with the BESIII detector at BEPCII, we employ a single-baryon tagging technique to make the first observation of $psi(3686)rightarrowXi(1530)^{-}barXi(1530)^{+}$ and $Xi(1530)^{-}barXi^{+}$ decays with a statistical significance of more than 10$sigma$ and 5.0$sigma$, respectively. The branching fractions are measured to be $cal{B}$$[psi(3686)rightarrowXi(1530)^{-}barXi(1530)^{+}] $ = (11.45 $pm$ 0.40 $pm$ 0.59) $times$ $10^{-5}$ and $cal{B}$$[psi(3686)rightarrowXi(1530)^{-}barXi^{+}]$ = (0.70 $pm$ 0.11 $pm$ 0.04) $times$ $10^{-5}$. The angular distribution parameter for $psi(3686)rightarrowXi(1530)^{-}barXi(1530)^{+}$ is determined to be $alpha$ = 0.40 $pm$ 0.24 $pm$ 0.06, which agrees with the theoretical predictions within 1$sigma$. The first uncertainties are statistical, and the second systematic.
Using $(448.1pm2.9)times 10^{6}$ $psi(3686)$ events collected with the BESIII detector and a single-baryon tagging technique, we present the first observation of the decays $psi(3686)toXi(1530)^{0}bar{Xi}(1530)^{0}$ and $Xi(1530)^{0}bar{Xi}^0$. The branching fractions are measured to be ${cal{B}}(psi(3686)toXi(1530)^{0}bar{Xi}(1530)^{0}) = (6.77pm0.14pm0.39)times10^{-5}$ and ${cal{B}}(psi(3686)toXi(1530)^{0}bar{Xi}^{0}) = (0.53pm0.04pm0.03)times10^{-5}$. Here, the first and second uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively. In addition, the parameter associated with the angular distribution for the decay $psi(3686)toXi(1530)^{0}bar{Xi}(1530)^0$ is determined to be $alpha = 0.32pm0.19pm0.07$, in agreement with theoretical predictions within one standard deviation.
We perform a helicity amplitude analysis for the processes of $e^+e^-$$rightarrow$$J/psi,psi(2S)rightarrowXi(1530)barXi(1530)rightarrowpipiXibarXirightarrowLambdabarLambda4pirightarrow pbar{p}6pi$. The joint angular distribution for these processes are obtained, which allows a proper estimation of the detection efficiency using helicity amplitude information. In addition, the sensitivities of measurement of hyperon asymmetry decay parameters for these processes are discussed.
The SU(3)-flavor violating decay $J/psitoXi(1530)^{-}barXi^{+}+c.c.$ is studied using $(1310.6pm7.0)times 10^{6} ~J/psi$ events collected with the BESIII detector at BEPCII and the branching fraction is measured to be ${cal{B}}(J/psitoXi(1530)^{-}barXi^{+}+c.c.)=(3.17pm0.02_{rm stat.}pm0.08_{rm syst.})times10^{-4}$. This is consistent with previous measurements with an improved precision. The angular parameter for this decay is measured for the first time and is found to be $alpha=-0.21pm0.04_{rm stat.}pm0.06_{rm syst.}$. In addition, we report evidence for the radiative decay $Xi(1530)^{-}togammaXi^- $ with a significance of 3.9$sigma$, including the systematic uncertainties. The 90% confidence level upper limit on the branching fraction is determined to be $mathcal{B}(Xi(1530)^{-}togammaXi^- )leq3.7$%.
Using a total of 11.0 fb$^{-1}$ of $e^{+}e^{-}$ collision data with center-of-mass energies between 4.009 GeV and 4.6 GeV and collected with the BESIII detector at BEPCII, we measure fifteen exclusive cross sections and effective form factors for the process $e^{+}e^{-}rightarrowXi^{-}barXi^{+}$ by means of a single baryon-tag method. After performing a fit to the dressed cross section of $e^{+}e^{-}rightarrowXi^{-}barXi^{+}$, no significant $psi(4230)$ or $psi(4260)$ resonance is observed in the $Xi^{-}barXi^{+}$ final states, and upper limits at the 90% confidence level on $Gamma_{ee}mathcal{B}$ for the processes $psi(4230)$/$psi(4260)rightarrowXi^{-}barXi^{+}$ are determined. In addition, an excited $Xi$ baryon at 1820 MeV/$c^{2}$ is observed with a statistical significance of 6.2 $sim$ 6.5$sigma$ by including the systematic uncertainty, and the mass and width are measured to be $M = (1825.5 pm 4.7 pm 4.7)$~MeV/$c^{2}$ and $Gamma = (17.0 pm 15.0 pm 7.9)$~MeV, which confirms the existence of the $J^{P}=frac{3}{2}^{-}$ state $Xi(1820)$.
We report the first measurements of absolute branching fractions for the $W$-exchange-only processes $Lambda^+_ctoXi^0K^+$ and $Lambda^+_ctoXi(1530)^0K^+$ with the double-tag technique, by analyzing an $e^{+}e^{-}$ collision data sample, that corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 567 pb$^{-1}$ collected at a center-of-mass energy of 4.6 GeV by the BESIII detector. The branching fractions are measured to be $mathcal{B}(Lambda^+_ctoXi^0K^+)=(5.90pm0.86pm0.39)times10^{-3}$ and $mathcal{B}(Lambda^+_ctoXi(1530)^0K^+)=(5.02pm0.99pm0.31)times10^{-3}$, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic. Our results are more precise than the previous relative measurements.
