Highlights

Precision measurements of hyperon radiative decay Σ+→pγ The BESIII collaboration has reported the first absolute branching fraction and decay asymmetry of Σ+→pγ with 10 billion J/ψ data. The measured value of the branching fraction is lower than the world average by 4.2 standard deviations. Both the branching fraction and decay asymmetry parameter are measured with the most precision to date. The results have been published recently in Physics Review Letters [Phys. Rev. Lett. 130, 211901 (2023)].
Observation of a new X(3872) production process e+e-→ ωX(3872) The BESIII collaboration recently reported the first observation of a new X(3872) production process e+e-→ ωX(3872) in the energy region of 4.661-4.951 GeV. The result has been published in Physical Review Letters on April , 2023. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 130, 151904 (2023) ].
Observation of Three Vector Charmonium-like States decaying into D*0 D*- π+ in e+ e- annihilations The BESIII collaboration recently reported “observations of three vector charmonium-like states with JPC=1-- decaying into D*0D*-π+ produced in e+e- annihilations in the energy range from 4.19 GeV to 4.95 GeV”. The masses of the three resonance states are found to be around 4.21 GeV, 4.47 GeV and 4.68 GeV, respectively, with broad widths larger than 50 MeV. They are candidates of exotic hadrons beyond conventional meson, as no c-cbar charmonium states predicted in quark model are consistent with these new findings. The results have been published in Physical Review Letters on March 23th, 2023. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 130, 121901 (2023)].
Study of the Semileptonic decay Λc+ to Λe+νe BESIII recently reported the study of the Cabibbo-favored Semileptonic (SL) decay Λc+ -> Λe+νe [Phys. Rev. Lett. 129, 231803 (2022)], with the largest Λc threshold data sets collected at the center-of-mass energy region between 4.6 GeV and 4.7 GeV.
Precision measurements of hyperon radiative decay Λ → nγ The BESIII collaboration has reported the first absolute branching fraction and decay asymmetry of Λ → nγ via J/ψ→ΛΛbar process with 10 billion J/ψ data. This is the first measurement of radiative hyperon decays at an electron-positron collider experiment. The measured value of the branching fraction with improved precision, is 5.6 standard deviations different from the PDG average value. The results have been published in Physics Review Letter [Phys. Rev. Lett. 129, 212002 (2022)].
Observation of an Isoscalar Resonance with Exotic J^PC=1^(-+) Quantum Numbers in J/ψ→γηη' The BESIII collaboration reported the observation of an isoscalar resonance with exotic JPC=1-+ quantum numbers. This research is published in Physical Review Letters [Phys. Rev. Lett. 129, 192002 (2022)], accompanied by a detailed companion paper in Physical Review D [Phys. Rev. D 106, 072012 (2022)]. This is an observation of a new category of hadronic matter, which is an important step forward in low energy QCD.
Observation of a charged scalar a0(1817)* in Charmed-strange meson Ds decay The BESIII Collaboration recently reported the observation of an a0-like state with mass of 1.817 GeV/c2 in DS decays with the data sets collected at the center-of-mass energy region between 4.178 GeV and 4.226 GeV. The paper has been published online in Physical Review Letter. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 129, 182001 (2022) ].
