Abstract

By analyzing(10087 ± 44)x 106 J/ψ events collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII, the decays J/ψ → Ξ0Λ¯K0S+c.c., J/ψ →Ξ0Σ¯0K0S+c.c., J/ψ → Ξ0Σ¯−K++c.c. and are observed for the first time. Their branching fractions are determined to be B(J/ψ → Ξ0Λ¯K0S+c.c.) = (3.76 ± 0.14 ± 0.23)x10-5, B(J/ψ →Ξ0Σ¯0K0S+c.c.) = (2.24 ± 0.32 ± 0.31)x10-5, and B(J/ψ → Ξ0Σ¯−K++c.c.) = (5.64 ± 0.17 ± 0.28)x10-5, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic.

Beta decay

In nuclear physics, beta decay (β-decay) is a type of radioactive decay in which an atomic nucleus emits a beta particle (fast energetic electron or positron), transforming into an isobar of that nuclide. For example, beta decay of a neutron transforms it into a proton by the emission of an electron accompanied by an antineutrino; or, conversely a proton is converted into a neutron by the emission of a positron with a neutrino in so-called positron emission.

Radioactive decay

Radioactive decay (also known as nuclear decay, radioactivity, radioactive disintegration, or nuclear disintegration) is the process by which an unstable atomic nucleus loses energy by radiation. A material containing unstable nuclei is considered radioactive. Three of the most common types of decay are alpha, beta, and gamma decay, all of which involve emitting particles. The weak force is the mechanism that is responsible for beta decay, while the other two are governed by the electromagnetism and nuclear force.

Statistics

Statistics (from German: Statistik, () "description of a state, a country") is the discipline that concerns the collection, organization, analysis, interpretation, and presentation of data. In applying statistics to a scientific, industrial, or social problem, it is conventional to begin with a statistical population or a statistical model to be studied. Populations can be diverse groups of people or objects such as "all people living in a country" or "every atom composing a crystal".
