Abstract

The LHCb experiment is designed to perform flavour physics measurements at the Large Hadron Collider. Using data collected during the 2010 run, we reconstruct a sample of $H_b\rightarrow h^+h'^-$ decays, where $H_b$ can be either a $B^0$ meson, a $B_s^0$ meson or a $Λ_b$ baryon, while $h$ and $h^\prime$ stand for $π$, $K$ or $p$. We provide preliminary values of the direct $\mathcal{CP}$ asymmetries of the neutral $B^0$ and $B_s^0$ mesons $A_{CP} (B^0\rightarrow K^+π^-) = -0.074 \pm 0.033\mathrm{(stat.)} \pm 0.008\mathrm{(syst.)}$ and $A_{CP}(B_s^0\rightarrowπ^+K^-)=0.15 \pm 0.19\mathrm{(stat.)} \pm 0.02\mathrm{(syst.)}$.

Search for the reaction channel $e^+ e^- \to ηη\,J/ψ$ and the isospin partner of the $Z_c(3900)$ at center-of-mass energies $\sqrt{s} = 4.226-4.950$ GeV

We search for the reaction channel $e^+ e^- \to ηη\,J/ψ$ in a data sample with center-of-mass energies from 4.226 to 4.950 GeV that was collected by the BESIII detector operating at the Beijing Electron Positron Collider (BEPCII). The data analysis is performed with two different reconstruction methods, exclusive and semi-inclusive, enabling a comparison and combination of the results. Only at a few energy points a non-zero cross section is observed with a statistical significance of more than 3$σ$ using one of the methods. Therefore, the corresponding upper limits of the cross section at the 90% confidence level are determined. The energy dependent results show clear deviations from the the line shape expected from three-body phase space alone. Since the statistical significance for almost all center-of-mass energies is low, the upper limits for the reaction channel $e^+ e^- \to ηη\,J/ψ$ also serve as limits for the existence of a possible isospin partner to the charmonium-like isospin triplet $Z_{\rm c}(3900)$ which decays to $J/ψη$.

Search for the radiative decay $D^+_s \to γK^*(892)^+$

Using 7.33 fb$^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ collision data samples collected with the BESIII detector at center-of-mass energies between 4.128 and 4.226 GeV, we perform a simultaneous fit to search for the radiative decay $D_s^+\toγK^*(892)^+$ via $K^*(892)^+\to K^+π^0$ and $K^*(892)^+\to K_S^0π^+$ for the first time. No significant signals are observed. The upper limit on the branching fraction of $D^+_s\toγK^*(892)^+$ is set to be $2.3\times10^{-4}$ at the $90\%$ confidence level.

Improved amplitude analysis of $η^\prime\toπ^+π^-π^0$ and $η^\prime\toπ^0π^0π^0$

Using a sample of $(10087\pm44)\times 10^6$ $J/ψ$ events collected with the BESIII detector at BEPCII, we perform an amplitude analysis of the decays $η^\prime\toπ^+π^-π^0$ and $η^\prime\toπ^0π^0π^0$, where we observe significant $π^\pmπ^0$ $P$-wave and $π$-$π$ $S$-wave interactions. Two different parameterizations, a $π$-$π$ scattering phase shift and the Gounaris-Sakurai Breit-Wigner formalism, are used to describe the $P$-wave propagator. Due to the large interference, the branching fractions for both the $P$- and the $S$-waves are found to be strongly model dependent.
