We report evidence for a narrow structure, X(5568), in the decay sequence X(5568)→B_{s}^{0}π^{±}, B_{s}^{0}→J/ψϕ, J/ψ→μ^{+}μ^{-}, ϕ→K^{+}K^{-}. This is evidence for the first instance of a hadronic state with valence quarks of four different flavors. The mass and natural width of this state are measured to be m=5567.8±2.9(stat)_{-1.9}^{+0.9}(syst) MeV/c^{2} and Γ=21.9±6.4(stat)_{-2.5}^{+5.0}(syst) MeV/c^{2}. If the decay is X(5568)→B_{s}^{*}π^{±}→B_{s}^{0}γπ^{±} with an unseen γ, m(X(5568)) will be shifted up by m(B_{s}^{*})-m(B_{s}^{0})∼49 MeV/c^{2}. This measurement is based on 10.4 fb^{-1} of pp[over ¯] collision data at sqrt[s]=1.96 TeV collected by the D0 experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron collider.
We investigate the decay B + → J/ψφK + in a search for the X(4140) state, a narrow threshold resonance in the J/ψφ system. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 10.4 fb −1 of pp collisions at √ s = 1.96 TeV collected by the D0 experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron collider.We observe a mass peak with a statistical significance of 3.1 standard deviations and measure its invariant mass to be M = 4159.0 ± 4.3 (stat) ± 6.6 (syst) MeV and its width to be Γ = 19.9 ± 12.6 (stat) +1.0 −8.0 (syst) MeV. Identifying this mass peak as the X(4140), we measure, for M (J/ψφ) < 4.59 GeV, the relative branching fraction B rel = B(B + → X(4140)K + )/B(B + → J/ψφK + ) to be 21 ± 8 (stat) ± 4 (syst)%. In addition, the data can accommodate the presence of a second enhancement at a mass of 4328.5 ± 12.0 MeV.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
