Evidence for Zc±(3900) in semi-inclusive decays of b -flavored hadrons

Abstract: We present evidence for the exotic charged charmoniumlike state Z AE c ð3900Þ decaying to J=ψπ AE in semiinclusive weak decays of b-flavored hadrons. The signal is correlated with a parent J=ψπ þ π − system in the invariant-mass range 4.2-4.7 GeV that would include the exotic structure Yð4260Þ. The study is based on 10.4 fb −1 of pp collision data collected by the D0 experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron collider.

“…We divide the data into two nonoverlapping samples: events with a displaced vertex, selected as in Ref. [7], and a complementary sample of "primary vertex" events. The criteria for the displaced vertex category are: the vertex of the J=ψ and the highest p T track is required to be displaced in the transverse plane from the pp interaction vertex by at least 5σ, the significance of the impact parameter in the transverse plane (IP)…”

“…In Ref. [7], the D0 Collaboration presented the first evidence for production of the manifestly exotic charmoniumlike state Z AE c ð3900Þ in semi-inclusive weak decays of b-flavored hadrons in events containing a nonprompt J=ψ and a pair of oppositely charged particles, assumed to be pions. That analysis considered the mass range 4.1 < MðJ=ψπ þ π − Þ < 4.7 GeV that includes the ψð4260Þ state:…”
