Strong and electromagnetic J/ψ and ψ（2S） decays into pion and kaon pairs

We discuss interference effects important for the form factors extraction in the vicinity of J/ψ and ψ（2S） resonances in combination with resonance parameters determination. The implementation to the Monte Carlo event generator PHOKHARA of the J/ψ and ψ（2S） contributions to the muon, pion and kaon pairs production associated with a photon at next-to-leading order is also described.     

Angular Distributions for Heavy Quarkonium Decays into Baryon-Antibaryon Pairs

Based on the naive quark model, we calculate angular distributions for heavy quarkonium decays into pN＊ （1440）, decuplet baryon pairs, and octet-decuplet baryon pairs. The general formulae of angular distributions are given explicitly. Quark mass effects on the violation of the helicity conservation and the prospect to look for them in J/ψ hadronic decays are discussed.     

Thermal production of charmonia in Pb-Pb collisions at (sNN)~(1/2)= 5.02 TeV

This work uses the Boltzmann transport model to study the thermal production of J/ψ and ψ(2S) in the quark gluon plasma(QGP) produced by (sNN)~(1/2)=5.02 TeV Pb-Pb collisions.The J/ψ nuclear modification factors are studied in detail alongside the mechanisms of primordial production and the recombination of charm and anti-charm quarks in the thermal medium.The ψ(2S) binding energy is much smaller in the hot medium compared to the ground state;thus,ψ(2S) with middle to low p_T can be thermally regenerated in the later stages of QGP expansions,enabling ψ(2S) to inherit larger collective flows from the bulk medium.We quantitatively study the nuclear modification factors of both J/ψ and ψ(2S) in different centralities and transverse momentum bins for (sNN)~(1/2)=5.02 TeV PbPb collisions.     

Charmonium results from BES

Using ～ 14 × 10^6 ψ（2S） and ～ 58 × 10^ J/ ψ data collected at BES Ⅱ/BEPC, the branching fraction of ψ（2S）→Ω-Ω^＋ is measured with about 5a statistical significance. The A electric dipole and ∧ decay parameter are studied using the decay J/ψ →∧∧→ ppπ^＋π^-. Using （106±3）× 10^6 ψ（2S） decays collected at BESⅢ/BEPC Ⅱ, we have obtained some interesting physics results. The branching fractions of XcJ→π^0π^0, ηη are measured with precision improved. The mass and width of he（l^1P1） state, together with the branching fractions of Br（ψ（2S） →π^0hc） and Br（hc →γηc） are the first measurements. Surprisingly, the decays of Xc1→φφ, ωω, and ωφ are firstly observed in BESⅢ data.     

Helicity Amplitude Analysis of e^＋e^- ψ（2S） → γχcJ→γ∧∧^-→γpπ^-p^-π^＋＊

An analysis of the helicity amplitude is performed on the process e^＋e^- ψ（2S） → γχcJ→γ∧∧^-→γpπ^-p^-π^＋. The joint angular distributions for each decay chain are given, and we focus on discussing the E1 contributions to ψ（2S） radiative decays, and the violation of the helicity selection rule in χcJ decays into hyperon pairs, together with the possibility of observing parity violation in successive hyperon decays.     

On ηc line shape in charmonium transitions

The line shapes to observe ηc in charmonium transitions, i.e., ψ（2S）, J/ψ→γηc, are investigated. The ηc line shapes in exclusive decays or by observing the inclusive photon spectrum are given. The sensitivities to measure the ηc resonance parameters are also evaluated. With more than two thousand ηc events observed, the precision of the ηc decay width measurement will be improved by better than 3%. However, the uncertainties associated with the ηc modified line shapes will dominate the systematic errors and this will prohibit precision mass and width measurements.     

The Monte Carlo Generator for J／ψ Decays with Angular Distribution

We present a Monte Carlo scheme to generate events of J/ψ decays with angular distributions based on the acceptance-rejection sampling method. We test this scheme with J/ψ → pp and J/ψ → ∧∧ → ppπ^ π^-, and the results show that the input angular distributions are well reproduced, and efficiency of the HOWL generator of this scheme is also discussed.     

Helicity Amplitude Analysis of ηc Decays into Hyperon-Antihyperon Pairst

The helicity amplitudes for the processes of e^＋e^- →J/ψ→γηc→γYY（Y： hyperon） are presented, together with the joint angular distributions for ηc decays into ∧∧,∑^0 ∑^0, and [1]-[1]＋. The sensitivities to measure the hyperon decay parameters in these decays are evaluated based on the helicity amplitudes. The prospects to test the Bell inequality in experiment using the decay of ηc→∧∧ are discussed.     

Charmonium results from BES

Charmonium spectroscopy and decay at CLEO-c

We report recent results on charmonium spectroscopy and decay from the CLEO-c experiment at the Cornell electrompositron storage ring accelerator, CESR. Most of the results are based on the analysis of 54 pb-1 of luminosity collected at the ψ（2S） resonance, corresponding to 27 M ψ（2S） decays. We concentrate on radiative decays of ψ（2S） and J/ψ, on two-body mesonic decay of XcJ, on hadronic decay of the he, and on higher multipoles in the two-photon cascade ψ（2S）→γχcJ, XcJ→γJ/ψ.     

B_u→ψM decays and S-D wave mixing effects

The B_u →ψM decays are studied with the perturbative QCD approach, where the psion ψ = ψ(2S),ψ(3770), ψ(4040) and ψ(4160), and the light meson M = π, K, ρ and K*. The factorizable and non-factorizable contributions, and the S-D wave mixing effects on the psions, are considered in the calculation. With appropriate inputs, the branching ratios for the B_u →ψK decays are generally coincident with the experimental data within errors. However, due to the large theoretical and experimental errors, it is impossible for the moment to give a severe constraint on the S-D wave mixing angles.     

Determination of J/ψ Event Number via J/ψ → μ^＋μ^- and J/ψ → e^＋e^- at BESⅢ

The decays of J/ψ → μ^＋μ^- and J/ψ → e^＋e^- are studied by Monte-Carlo simulation, based on the Beijing Spectrometer （BES）Ⅲ offtine software system. The methods of determination of the J/ψ event number via J/ψ → μ^＋μ^- and J/ψ → e^＋e^- are presented, respectively. These methods can be used to determine the J/ψ event number for the coming BESⅢ J/ψ data sample.     

P-wave contributions to B_((s))→ψKπ decays in perturbative QCD approach

We study the quasi-two-body decays B_((s)) ψ[K~*(892) K~*(1410) K~*(1680)] ψKπ by employing the perturbative QCD(PQCD) factorization approach, where the charmonia ψ represents J/ψ and ψ(2S). The corresponding decay channels are studied by constructing the kaon-pion distribution amplitude(DA) Φ_(Kπ)~P, which comprises important final state interactions between the kaon and pion in the resonant region. Relativistic Breit-Wigner formulas are adopted to parameterize the time-like form factor F_(Kπ) appearing in the kaon-pion DAs. The SU(3) flavor symmetry breaking effect resulting from the mass difference between the kaon and pion is taken into account,which makes significant contributions to the longitudinal polarizations. The observed branching ratios and the polarization fractions of B_((s)) ψK~*(892) ψKπ are accommodated by tuning hadronic parameters for the kaon-pion DAs. The PQCD predictions for B_((s)) ψ[K~*(1410) K~*(1680)] ψKπ modes from the same set of parameters can be tested by precise data obtained in the future from LHCb and Belle Ⅱ experiments.     

What do we learn from the ρ-π puzzle

The experimental observation indicates that the branching ratio of ψ＇→ρπ is very small while the ρ-π channel is a main one in J/ψ decays. To understand the puzzle, various interpretations have been proposed. Meanwhile according to the hadronic helicity selection rule, this decay mode should be suppressed. Numerical calculations are needed to determine how it is suppressed. We calculate the branching ratios of J/ψ→ρπ and ππ in the framework of QCD. The results show that the branching ratios are proportional to （mu＋md/MJ/ψ）^2 for the ρπ mode and （mu-md/MJ/ψ）^2 for the ππ mode which is isospin violated. The theoretical prediction of the ratio of J/ ψ→ρπ is smaller than data, but not too small to invoke a completely new mechanism. Thus the puzzle is still standing even though we learn much knowledge towards the puzzle and this will help to finally interpret the puzzle and then gain a deeper insight to the heavy quarkonia.     

An overview of η and η' decays at BESIII

The world's largest sample of J/ψ events, 1.31 billion events accumulated at the BESIII detector, provides a unique opportunity to investigate η and η physics via two-body J/ψ radiative or hadronic decays. For many η decay channels the low background data samples are up to three orders of magnitude larger than collected in any previous experiment. Here we review the most significant results on η and η obtained at BESIII so far. The analyses range from detailed studies of common decay dynamics, observations of new radiative and Dalitz decays, and searches for rare/forbidden decays with sensitivity up to B～10-5. Finally, prospects of forthcoming runs at the J/ψ peak forη and η physics are discussed.     

About detecting CP-violating processes in J/ψ→ K^0K^-0 decay

Abstract Questions about detecting the CP-violating decay process of J/ψ→ K^0K^-0→ KsKs are discussed. Possible background and material regeneration effects are analyzed. The discussion can be directly extended to other vector quarkonium decays, like γ, ψ（2S） and Ф → KsKs.     

Optimization of a GaN-based irregular multiple quantum well structure for a dichromatic white LED

GaN-based irregular multiple quantum well(IMQW) structures assembled two different types of QWs emitting complementary wavelengths for dichromatic white light-emitting diodes(LEDs) are optimized in order to obtain near white light emissions.The hole distributions and spontaneous emission spectra of the IMQW structures are analysed in detail by fully considering the effects of strain,well-coupling,valence band-mixing and polarization effect through employing a newly developed theoretical model from the k · p theory.Several structure parameters such as well material component,well width,layout of the wells and the thickness of barrier between different types of QWs are employed to analyse how these parameters together with the polarization effect influence the electronic and the optical properties of IMQW structure.Numerical results show that uniform hole distributions in different types of QWs are obtained when the number of the QWs emitting blue light is two,the number of the QWs emitting yellow light is one and the barrier between different types of QWs is 8nm in thickness.The near white light emission is realized using GaN-based IMQW structure with appropriate design parameters and injection level.     

Radiative Decays of Charmonium into Light Mesons

We apply perturbative QCD to the radiative decays of charmonia J/ψ and χcJ into light mesons. We perform a complete numerical calculation for the quark-gluon loop diagrams involved in these processes. The calculated J/ψ decay branching ratios into p-wave mesons f2（1270） and f1（1285） fit the data well, while that of fo（980） （if treated as an ss meson） is predicted to be 1.6×10^-4, which implies that f0（1710） can not be the ss or （uu＋dd）/√2 meson. Decays of p-wave charmonia χcJ→ρ（ω;φ）γ （J = 0, 1, 2） are also studied, and the branching ratio of χc1→ργ is predicted to be 1.4×10^-5, which may be tested by CLEO-c collaboration and BESlg collaboration with future experiments.     

Analytic forms for cross sections of di-lepton production from e~+e~- collisions around the J/ψ resonance

A detailed theoretical derivation of the cross sections of e~+e~-→e~+e~-and e~+e~-→μ+μ-around the J/ψ resonance is reported. The resonance and interference parts of the cross sections, related to J/ψ resonance parameters, are calculated. Higher-order corrections for vacuum polarization and initial-state radiation are considered. An arbitrary upper limit of radiative correction integration is involved. Full and simplified versions of analytic formulae are given with precision at the level of 0.1% and 0.2%, respectively. Moreover, the results obtained in the paper can be applied to the case of the ψ(3686) resonance.
