We have recently observed that hadron triangle singularities, that can mock new exotic hadrons, can be significanttly suppressed in relativistic heavy ion collisions, provided two conditions are met: these are, first, that the fireball lives long enough so that the triangle process has enough time to complete in the Norton-Coleman classical sense, and second, that the mass and/or width of the particles in the triangle diagram are sufficiently modified from their vacuum values. Here we add a very interesting example to the canon, which is $Y(4260) to D_1 D to pi D^* D to pi + J/psi pi$. This reaction has been proposed as a mechanism to explain the appearance of $Z_c(3900)$ in the $J/psi pi$ spectrum. If the two muons and two pions reconstructing the initial-state $Y$ can be isolated from the combinatorial background, then the mechanism can provide a spectroscopy test: presence of $Y(4260)$ but absence of $Z_c(3900)$ would be more indicative of such triangle mechanism, while presence of both would rather point out to $Z_c$ being an exotic hadron.

We report the results of a search for the $B to Y(4260) K, ~Y(4260)to J/psipi^+pi^-$ decays. This study is based on a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 711~fb$^{-1}$, collected at the $Upsilon(4S)$ resonance with the Belle dete
ctor at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+ e^-$ collider. We investigate the $J/psipi^+pi^-$ invariant mass distribution in the range 4.0 to 4.6 GeV/$c^2$ using both $B^+ to J/psi pi^+pi^- K^+$ and $B^0 to J/psi pi^+pi^- K^0_S$ decays. We find excesses of events above the background levels, with a significances of 2.1 and 0.9 standard deviations for charged and neutral $B to Y(4260) K$ decays, respectively, taking into account the systematic uncertainties. These correspond to upper limits on the product of branching fractions, ${cal B}(B^+ to Y(4260) K^+) times {cal B}(Y(4260) to J/psi pi^+ pi^-) <1.4 times 10^{-5}$ and ${cal B}(B^0 to Y(4260) K^0) times {cal B}(Y(4260) to J/psi pi^+ pi^-) <1.7 times 10^{-5}$ at the 90% confidence level.
We predict that triangle singularities of hadron spectroscopy can be strongly affected in heavy ion collisions. To do it we examine various effects on the singularity-inducing triangle loop of finite temperature in the terminal hadron phase. It appea
rs that peaks seen in central heavy ion collisions are more likely to be hadrons than rescattering effects under two conditions. First, the flight-time of the intermediate hadron state must be comparable to the lifetime of the equilibrated fireball (else, the reaction mostly happens in vacuo after freeze out). Second, the medium effect over the triangle-loop particle mass or width must be sizeable. When these (easily checked) conditions are met, the medium quickly reduces the singularity: at T about 150 MeV, even by two orders of magnitude, acting then as a spectroscopic filter.
Using data samples collected at center of mass energies of $sqrt{s}$ = 4.009, 4.226, 4.257, 4.358, 4.416 and 4.599 GeV with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII storage ring, we search for the isospin violating decay $Y(4260)rightarrow J/psi e
ta pi^{0}$. No signal is observed, and upper limits on the cross section $sigma(e^{+}e^{-}rightarrow J/psi eta pi^{0})$ at the 90% confidence level are determined to be 3.6, 1.7, 2.4, 1.4, 0.9 and 1.9 pb, respectively.
The BESIII Collaboration recently reported the observation of the $a_0(980)^0-f_0(980)$ mixing in the isospin breaking decay $J/psito etapi^0phi$. In the Dalitz plot for that decay with the $eta$ reconstructed from two photons, there is a band around
$1.4$~GeV on the $pi^0 phi$ distribution. In general, this peak can be due to a resonance or a kinematic effect. In this paper, we study the effects of a set of $K^*Kbar K$ triangle diagrams, and show that due to triangle singularities such diagrams can lead to a peak around 1.4~GeV in the $pi^0phi$ invariant mass distribution. The Dalitz plot induced by such a mechanism has a feature consistent with the BESIII observation, namely events along the band accumulate at both ends close to the Dalitz plot boundary. The effect of the same mechanism on the $J/psito pi^0pi^0phi$ and $J/psi to etapi^0 K^+K^-$ decays are also investigated. We suggest to take more data for the $J/psito etapi^0phito etapi^0 K^+ K^-$ and check whether the structure around $1.4$~GeV persists for the $K^+K^-$ invariant mass away from the $phi$ mass region. This is crucial for understanding whether the band is due to triangle singularities or due to a resonance. Were it the latter, the band should remain while it would not if it is due to the former.
The decay Bc+ --> J/psi pi+pi-pi+ is observed for the first time, using 0.8 fb-1 of pp collisions at sqrt{s}=7 TeV collected by the LHCb experiment. The ratio of branching fractions BR(Bc+ --> J/psi pi+pi-pi+)/BR(B_c+ --> J/psi pi+) is measured to be
2.41+-0.30+-0.33, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic. The result is in agreement with theoretical predictions.
