Evidence for the decays of ∧_c~+→∑~+η and ∑~+η'

We study the hadronic decays of ∧_c~+ to the final states ∑~+η and ∑~+η',using an e~+e~-annihilation data sample of 567 pb~(-1) taken at a center-of-mass energy of 4.6 GeV with the BESIII detector at the BEPCⅡ collider.We find evidence for the decays ∧_c~+→∑~+η and ∑~+η' with statistical significance of 2.5σ and 3.2σ,respectively.Normalizing to the reference decays ∧_c~+→∑~+π0 and ∑~+ω,we obtain the ratios of the branching fractions■and ■to be 0.35±0.16±0.02 and 0.86±0.34±0.04,respectively.The upper limits at the 90% confidence level are set to be■and■.Using BESIII measurements of the branching fractions of the reference decays,we determine B(∧_c~+→∑~+η)=(0.41±0.19±0.05)%(0.68%)and B(∧_c~+→∑~+η')=(1.34±0.53 ±0.19)%(1.9%).Here,the first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic.The obtained branching fraction of ∧_c~+→∑~+η is consistent with the previous measurement,and the branching fraction of ∧_c~+→∑~+η' is measured for the first time.
