We study e+e- --> pi+pi-h_c at center-of-mass energies from 3.90 GeV to 4.42 GeV using data samples collected with the BESIII detector operating at the Beijing Electron Positron Collider. The Born cross sections are measured at 13 energies, and are found to be of the same order of magnitude as those of e+e- --> pi+pi-J/psi but with a different line shape. In the pi^pm h_c mass spectrum, a distinct structure, referred to as Z_c(4020), is observed at 4.02 GeV/c^2. The Z_c(4020) carries an electric charge and couples to charmonium. A fit to the pi^pm h_c invariant mass spectrum, neglecting possible interferences, results in a mass of (4022.9pm 0.8pm 2.7) MeV/c^2 and a width of (7.9pm 2.7pm 2.6) MeV for the Z_c(4020), where the first errors are statistical and the second systematic. No significant Z_c(3900) signal is observed, and upper limits on the Z_c(3900) production cross sections in pi^pm h_c at center-of-mass energies of 4.23 and 4.26 GeV are set.

Using data collected with the BESIII detector operating at the Beijing Electron Positron Collider at center-of-mass energies of $sqrt{s}=4.23$, 4.26, and 4.36~GeV, we observe $EEto pphc$ for the first time. The Born cross sections are measured and fo und to be about half of those of $EEto pi^+pi^-h_c$ within less than 2$sigma$. In the $pi^0h_c$ mass spectrum, a structure at 4.02~GeV/$c^2$ is found. It is most likely to be the neutral isospin partner of the $zcp^{pm}$ observed in the process of $EEto pi^+pi^-h_c$ is found. A fit to the $pi^0 h_c$ invariant mass spectrum, with the width of the $zcpn$ fixed to that of its charged isospin partner and possible interferences with non-$zcpn$ amplitudes neglected, gives a mass of ($4023.9pm 2.2 pm 3.8$)~MeV/$c^2$ for the $zcpn$, where the first error is statistical and the second systematic.
The cross sections of $e^+e^- rightarrow pi Z_c(3900) rightarrow pipi J/psi$ and $e^+e^- rightarrow pi Z_c(3900) rightarrow pi Dbar{D}^{*}$ have been measured by BESIII experiment. We try to perform a combined fit to the cross sections with one Breit -Wigner function, the fit results show the structures mass and width are $M=(4232pm5)$ MeV/$c^2$, $Gamma=(65pm21)$ MeV. The ratio $frac{mathcal{B}(Z_c(3900)rightarrow Dbar{D}^{*})}{mathcal{B}(Z_c(3900)rightarrowpi J/psi)}$ is determined to be $(16pm6)$. We also try to fit the cross sections with two Breit-Wigner functions, while we cant come to any definitive conclusions about the second structure. More measurements are desired to improve the understanding of $e^+e^- rightarrow pi Z_c(3900)$ line shape.
We study the process e+e- to pi+pi-J/psi at a center-of-mass energy of 4.260 GeV using a 525 pb^{-1} data sample collected with the BESIII detector operating at the Beijing Electron Positron Collider. The Born cross section is measured to be (62.9pm 1.9pm 3.7) pb, consistent with the production of the Y(4260). We observe a structure at around 3.9 GeV/c^2 in the pi^pm J/psi mass spectrum, which we refer to as the Z_c(3900). If interpreted as a new particle, it is unusual in that it carries an electric charge and couples to charmonium. A fit to the pi^pm J/psi invariant mass spectrum, neglecting interference, results in a mass of (3899.0pm 3.6pm 4.9) MeV/c^2 and a width of (46pm 10pm 20) MeV. Its production ratio is measured to be R=frac{sigma(e+e- to pi^pm Z_c(3900)^mp to pi+pi-J/psi))} {sigma(e+e- to pi+pi-J/psi)}=(21.5pm 3.3pm 7.5)%. In all measurements the first errors are statistical and the second are systematic.
We report a study of the process $e^{+} e^{-} to (D^{*} bar{D}^{*})^{0} pi^0$ using $e^+e^-$ collision data samples with integrated luminosities of $1092 rm{pb}^{-1}$ at $sqrt{s}=4.23 rm{GeV}$ and $826 rm{pb}^{-1}$ at $sqrt{s}=4.26 rm{GeV}$ collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII storage ring. We observe a new neutral structure near the $(D^{*} bar{D}^{*})^{0}$ mass threshold in the $pi^0$ recoil mass spectrum, which we denote as $Z_{c}(4025)^{0}$. Assuming a Breit-Wigner line shape, its pole mass and pole width are determined to be $(4025.5^{+2.0}_{-4.7}pm3.1) rm{MeV}/c^2$ and $(23.0pm 6.0pm 1.0) rm{MeV}$, respectively. The Born cross sections of $e^{+}e^{-}to Z_{c}(4025)^{0} pi^0to (D^{*} bar{D}^{*})^{0}pi^0$ are measured to be $(61.6pm8.2pm9.0) rm{pb}$ at $sqrt{s}=4.23 rm{GeV}$ and $(43.4pm8.0pm5.4) rm{pb}$ at $sqrt{s}=4.26 rm{GeV}$. The first uncertainties are statistical and the second are systematic.

Using 586 pb$^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ annihilation data taken with the CLEO-c detector at $sqrt{s}=4170$ MeV, the peak of the charmonium resonance $psi(4160)$, we analyze the decay $psi(4160)to pi^+pi^- J/psi$, and report observation of the charged state $ Z_c^pm(3900)$ decaying into $pi^pm J/psi$ at a significance level of $>5 sigma$. We obtain $M(Z_c^pm)=3886pm4(text{stat})pm 2(text{syst})$ MeV and $Gamma(Z_c^pm)=37pm4(text{stat})pm 8(text{syst})$ MeV, which are in good agreement with the results for this resonance obtained by the BES III and Belle Collaborations in the decay of the resonance Y(4260). We also present first evidence for the production of the neutral member of this isospin triplet, $Z_c^0(3900)$ decaying into $pi^0J/psi$ at a $3.5sigma$ significance level.
