By analyzing data samples of 2.9 fb^{-1} collected at sqrt s=3.773 GeV, 482 pb^{-1} collected at sqrt s=4.009 GeV and 67 pb^{-1} collected at sqrt s=3.542, 3.554, 3.561, 3.600 and 3.650 GeV with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII storage ring, we search for psi(3770) and psi(4040) decay to baryonic final states, including LambdabarLambdapi^+pi^-, Lambda barLambdapi^0, LambdabarLambdaeta, Sigma^+ barSigma^-, Sigma^0 barSigma^0, Xi^-barXi^+ and Xi^0barXi^0 decays. None are observed, and upper limits are set at the 90% confidence level.
We report a measurement of the branching fraction of $psi(3770)togammachi_{c1}$ and search for the transition $psi(3770)rightarrow gamma chi_{c2}$ based on 2.92~fb$^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ data accumulated at $sqrt{s}=3.773$~GeV with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider. The measured branching fraction of $psi(3770) rightarrow gamma chi_{c1}$ is $mathcal B(psi(3770) rightarrow gamma chi_{c1})=(2.48 pm 0.15 pm 0.23) times 10^{-3}$, which is the most precise measurement to date. The upper limit on the branching fraction of $psi(3770)rightarrow gamma chi_{c2}$ at a $90%$ confidence level is $mathcal B(psi(3770) rightarrow gamma chi_{c2})<0.64 times 10^{-3}$. The corresponding partial widths are $Gamma(psi(3770) to gamma chi_{c1}) =(67.5pm 4.1pm 6.7)$~keV and $Gamma(psi(3770) to gamma chi_{c2}) < 17.4$~keV.
The cross section for e^+e^- to eta J/psi between sqrt{s}=3.8 GeV/c^2 and 5.3 GeV/c^2 is measured via initial state radiation using 980 fb^{-1} of data on and around the Upsilon(nS)(n=1,2,3,4,5) resonances collected with the Belle detector at KEKB. Two resonant structures at the psi(4040) and psi(4160) are observed in the eta J/psi invariant mass distribution. Fitting the mass spectrum with the coherent sum of two Breit-Wigner functions, one obtains BR(psi(4040)toeta J/psi)cdotGamma_{ee}^{psi(4040)} = (4.8pm0.9pm1.4) eV and BR(psi(4160)toeta J/psi)cdotGamma_{ee}^{psi(4160)} = (4.0pm0.8pm1.4) eV for one solution and BR(psi(4040)toeta J/psi)cdotGamma_{ee}^{psi(4040)} = (11.2pm1.3pm1.9) eV and BR(psi(4160)toeta J/psi)cdotGamma_{ee}^{psi(4160)} = (13.8pm1.3pm2.0) eV for the other solution, where the first errors are statistical and the second are systematic. This is the first measurement of this hadronic transition mode of these two states, and the partial widths to eta J/psi are found to be about 1 MeV. There is no evidence for the Y(4260), Y(4360), psi(4415), or Y(4660) in the eta J/psi final state, and upper limits of their production rates in e^+e^- annihilation are determined.
We report the final results of a study of the psi(3770) meson using a data sample collected with the KEDR detector at the VEPP-4M electron-positron collider. The data analysis takes into account the interference between the resonant and nonresonant $Dbar{D}$ production, where the latter is related to the nonresonant part of the energy-dependent form factor $F_D$. The vector dominance approach and several empirical parameterizations have been tried for the nonresonant $F_D^{NR}(s)$. Our results for the mass and total width of psi(3770) are M = 3779.2 ^{+1.8}_{-1.7} ^{+0.5}_{-0.7} ^{+0.3}_{-0.3} MeV, Gamma =24.9 ^{+4.6}_{-4.0} ^{+0.5}_{-0.6} ^{+0.2}_{-0.9} MeV, where the first, second and third uncertainties are statistical, systematic and model, respectively. For the electron partial width two possible solutions have been found: (1) Gamma_{ee} = 154 ^{+79}_{-58} ^{+17}_{-9} ^{+13}_{-25} eV, (2) Gamma_{ee} = 414 ^{+72}_{-80} ^{+24}_{-26} ^{+90}_{-10} eV. Our statistics are insufficient to prefer one solution to another. The solution (2) mitigates the problem of non-$Dbar{D}$ decays but is disfavored by potential models. It is shown that taking into account the resonance--continuum interference in the near-threshold region affects resonance parameters, thus the results presented can not be directly compared with the corresponding PDG values obtained ignoring this effect.
By using a 2.92 fb$^{-1}$ data sample taken at $sqrt{s} = 3.773$ GeV with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII collider, we search for the radiative transitions $psi(3770)togammaeta_c$ and $gammaeta_c(2S)$ through the hadronic decays $eta_c(eta_c(2S))to K^0_SK^pmpi^mp$. No significant excess of signal events above background is observed. We set upper limits at a 90% confidence level for the product branching fractions to be $mathcal{B}(psi(3770)togammaeta_c)times mathcal{B}(eta_cto K^0_SK^pmpi^mp) < 1.6times10^{-5}$ and $mathcal{B}(psi(3770)togammaeta_c(2S))times mathcal{B}(eta_c(2S)to K^0_SK^pmpi^mp) < 5.6times10^{-6}$. Combining our result with world-average values of $mathcal{B}(eta_c(eta_c(2S))to K^0_SK^pmpi^mp)$, we find the branching fractions $mathcal{B}(psi(3770)togammaeta_c) < 6.8times10^{-4}$ and $mathcal{B}(psi(3770)togammaeta_c(2S)) < 2.0times10^{-3}$ at a 90% confidence level.
We report the first observation of the decay B+ -> psi(3770) K+ where psi(3770) is reconstructed in the D0D0-bar and D+D- decay channels. The obtained branching fraction is Br(B+ -> psi(3770) K+)=(0.48+-0.11+-0.07)x10^{-3}. We have measured the branching fraction for the decay B+ -> D0D0-bar K+ to be (1.17+-0.21+-0.15)x10^{-3}. We have set a 90% confidence level upper limit of 0.90x10^{-3} for the decay B+ -> D+D-K+. We also present the results of a search for possible decays to DD-bar and D0D0-bar pi0 of the recently observed X(3872) particle. The analysis is based on 88 fb^{-1} of data collected at the Upsilon(4S) resonance by the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e+e- collider.
