We report the first observation of the decay J/psi --> 3 gamma. The signal has a statistical significance of 6 sigma and corresponds to a branching fraction of B(J/psi --> 3 gamma) = (1.2 +- 0.3 +- 0.2) x 10^-5, in which the errors are statistical and systematic, respectively. The measurement uses psi(2S) --> pi+ pi- J/psi events acquired with the CLEO-c detector operating at the CESR e+e- collider.

From e+e- collision data acquired with the CLEO detector at CESR, we observe the non-D Dbar decay psi(3770)->gamma chi_c1 with a statistical significance of 6.6 standard deviations, using the two-photon cascades to J/psi and J/psi->l+l-. We determine sigma(e+e- -> psi(3770)) x BR(psi(3770)->gamma chi_c1) =(18.0 pm3.3 pm2.5) pb and branching fraction BR(psi(3770)->gamma chi_c1)=(2.8+-0.5+-0.4) x 10^-3. We set 90% C.L. upper limits for the transition to chi_c2 (chi_c0) : sigma x BR < 5.7 pb (< 282 pb) and BR < 0.9 x 10^-3 (<44 x 10^-3). We also determine Gamma(psi(3770)->gamma chi_c1)/Gamma(psi(3770)->pi+pi-J/psi) =1.5+-0.3+-0.3 (>1.0 at 90 % C.L.), which bears upon the interpretation of X(3872).
We study the $e^+e^-togammaomega J/psi$ process using $11.6 ~rm fb^{-1}$ $e^+ e^-$ annihilation data taken at center-of-mass energies from $sqrt{s}=4.008~rm GeV$ to $4.600~rm GeV$ with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII storage ring. The $X(3872)$ res onance is observed for the first time in the $omega J/psi$ system with a significance of more than $5sigma$. The relative decay ratio of $X(3872)toomega J/psi$ and $pi^+pi^- J/psi$ is measured to be $mathcal{R}=1.6^{+0.4}_{-0.3}pm0.2$, where the first error is statistical and the second systematic (the same hereafter). The $sqrt{s}$-dependent cross section of $e^+e^-togamma X(3872)$ is also measured and investigated, and it can be described by a single Breit-Wigner resonance, referred to as the $Y(4200)$, with a mass of $4200.6^{+7.9}_{-13.3}pm3.0~{rm MeV}/c^2$ and a width of $115^{+38}_{-26}pm12~{rm MeV}$. In addition, to describe the $omega J/psi$ mass distribution above $3.9~rm GeV/c^2$, we need at least one additional Breit-Wigner resonance, labeled as $X(3915)$, in the fit. The mass and width of the $X(3915)$ are measured to be $3926.4pm2.2pm1.2~rm MeV/c^2$ and $3.8pm7.5pm2.6~rm MeV$, or $3932.6pm8.7pm4.7~rm MeV/c^2$ and $59.7pm15.5pm3.7~rm MeV$, respectively, depending on the fit models. The resonant parameters of the $X(3915)$ agree with those of the $Y(3940)$ in $Bto Komega J/psi$ and of the $X(3915)$ in $gammagammatoomega J/psi$ by the Belle and BABAR experiments within errors.
We report the results of a search for a charmonium-like state produced in the process gamma gamma --> omega J/psi in the 3.9-4.2 GeV/c^2 mass region. We observe a significant enhancement, which is well-described by a resonant shape with mass M = (391 5 +/- 3 +/- 2) MeV/c^2 and total width Gamma = (17 +/- 10 +/- 3) MeV. This enhancement may be related to one or more of the three charmonium-like states so far reported in the 3.90-3.95 GeV/c^2 mass region.
The first observation of exotic states with a new quark content $c bar{c} u bar{s}$ decaying to the $J/psi K^+$ final state is reported with high significance from an amplitude analysis of the $B^+ to J/psi phi K^+$ decay. The analysis is carried out using proton-proton collision data corresponding to a total integrated luminosity of 9 fb$^{-1}$ collected by the LHCb experiment at centre-of-mass energies of 7, 8 and 13 TeV. The most significant state, $Z_{cs}(4000)^+$, has a mass of $4003pm6,^{+,phantom{0}4}_{-,14}$ MeV, a width of $131pm15pm26$ MeV, and spin-parity $J^P=1^+$, where the quoted uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively. A new $1^+$ $X(4685)$ state decaying to the $J/psi phi$ final state is also observed with high significance. In addition, the four previously reported $J/psi phi$ states are confirmed and two more exotic states, $Z_{cs}(4220)^+$ and $X(4630)$, are observed with significance exceeding five standard deviations.
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. T wo 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.
