Summary
Introduction
• Strong interaction is described by non-Abelian gauge field theory – QCD interaction of quarks and gluons.
• QCD predicts the existence of a new type of hadrons with explicit gluonic degrees of freedom.
• Study of the hadron spectroscopy helps to understand the strong interaction.
• Confirmation of the glueball or hybrid state is a directly test of QCD.

• Some QCD-based theories make predictions to the glueball mass.
• LQCD predicts the lowest glueball state is 0++. The mass is around 1.5 GeV – 1.7 GeV.
• LQCD predicts the next lightest glueball is 2++. The mass is around 2.4 GeV.
• The mix of glueball with ordinary qq meson makes the situation more difficult.

• Theoretical model predicts : exotic hybrid state preferentially to pairs of S wave and P wave mesons, such as f1(1285), b1(1235).

Baryon spectroscopy The understanding of the internal quark-gluon structure of baryons is
one of the most important tasks in both particle and nuclear physics.
The systematic study of various baryon spectroscopy will provide us with critical insights into the nature of QCD in the confinement domain.
Jefferson Lab, ELSA, GRAAL, SPRING8 and BES have started to study the baryon and excited baryon states.
The available experimental information is still poor, especially for the excited baryon states with two strange quarks, e.g., *. Some phenomenological QCD-inspired models predict more than 30 such kinds of baryons, however only two are experimentally well settled.
Totally only about 10% excited baryons are observed.
Advantages of studying excited baryons from J/ decays
• excited baryons can be produced through J/ decays.
• for J/ NN and NN decays, the N and N systems are limited to be pure isospin ½ due to isospin conservation.
• search for “missing” baryon states and hybrid baryon with BESIII/BEPCII.

Probing for new physics in J/ decays
1. Lepton flavor violation (LVF)
--- In SM, lepton flavor symmetries are conserved.
--- neutrinos having mass and flavor oscillation indicate the existence of LVF
--- J/ e, and e are LVF processes
--- some theoretical models predict: Br(J/) 10-5 – 10-8
Br(J/e) 10-5 – 10-7
--- search for J/ and J/e with 1010 or more J/ data.
2. CP test in J/ decays
--- CP violation was first discovered in K system--- CP violation was also found in B system--- no experimental indication of CP violation in other processes--- search for CP violation in other places where SM predicts no or tiny CP violation
With BESIII J/ data, CP test can be done in:
--- J/ particle + antiparticle (), where the polarization can be measured through subsequential decays of .--- J/ , clean sample, but low efficiency because of K decay large sample is needed.
3. Flavor changing processes
--- J/ can decay to single D meson + X--- In SM, these Cabbibo suppressed and/or favored weak decays can proceed through tree and penguim processes and have the branching ratios <10-8.
Since the penguin c u transition is small in SM, the theoretical estimation gives:
Br(J/ D0Xu) 10-10
Br(J/ D+Xu) 10-9
Considering new physics effects,
Br(J/ D/D Xu) 10-5
Br(J/ Ds+K-) 10-5

Simulation of possible 2++ glueball in J/’
(2230) is a 2++ glueball candidate
--- LQCD calculation --- some glueball favored exps. observed it (narrow, flavor blind, …); some didn’t find it --- small coupling to 2-photon process
Theoretical calculations predict: (2230) can be largely coupled to ’ and ’’, if it exists and is a gleuball.

Breit-Wigner fit results
Separation of 0++, 2++ and 4++ in J/K+K-
• The structures in the K+K- mass region over 2.0 GeV are quite complicated.
• Distinguishing 0++, 2++ and 4++ in this mass region is important.
• possible resonances included in the simulation for MKK > 2.0 GeV are: (2230) and f4(2050) (f0(2100)).
• main backgound: J/ K* K
• assuming 1109 J/ events
• for (2230), assuming 2++, x=0.5, y=0.5 for f4(2050), assuming 4++, x=0.5, y=0.5
• the JPCs’ of (2230) and f4(2050) being 2++ and 4++ gives the best Log Likelihood value.
• excluding either (2230) or f4(2050) makes the log likelihood value be worse apparently.
• 0++, 2++ and 4++ can be separated clearly in the mass region over 2.0 GeV with BESIII detector.
PWA Results
Crosses are generated Monte-Carlo data,histogram is the PWA fit projection.
• assuming 6 109 J/ events
• J/a0(980), a2(1320), (1390), (2300) are included.
• background included
• PWA can well separate these states

Precise measurement of K* mass splitting
There is mass splitting between the different isospin states (K*(892) and K(892)*0).
Different theoretical models give different m. Precise measurement of m requires a large statistics and a detect
or with good PID and momentum resolution.
