Using a low background data sample of 9.7×10^{5} J/ψ→γη^{'}, η^{'}→γπ^{+}π^{-} events, which are 2 orders of magnitude larger than those from the previous experiments, recorded with the BESIII ...detector at BEPCII, the decay dynamics of η^{'}→γπ^{+}π^{-} are studied with both model-dependent and model-independent approaches. The contributions of ω and the ρ(770)-ω interference are observed for the first time in the decays η^{'}→γπ^{+}π^{-} in both approaches. Additionally, a contribution from the box anomaly or the ρ(1450) resonance is required in the model-dependent approach, while the process specific part of the decay amplitude is determined in the model-independent approach.
The spin and parity of the Z_{c}(3900)^{±} state are determined to be J^{P}=1^{+} with a statistical significance larger than 7σ over other quantum numbers in a partial wave analysis of the process ...e^{+}e^{-}→π^{+}π^{-}J/ψ. We use a data sample of 1.92 fb^{-1} accumulated at sqrts=4.23 and 4.26 GeV with the BESIII experiment. When parametrizing the Z_{c}(3900)^{±} with a Flatté-like formula, we determine its pole mass M_{pole}=(3881.2±4.2_{stat}±52.7_{syst}) MeV/c^{2} and pole width Γ_{pole}=(51.8±4.6_{stat}±36.0_{syst}) MeV. We also measure cross sections for the process e^{+}e^{-}→Z_{c}(3900)^{+}π^{-}+c.c.→J/ψπ^{+}π^{-} and determine an upper limit at the 90% confidence level for the process e^{+}e^{-}→Z_{c}(4020)^{+}π^{-}+c.c.→J/ψπ^{+}π^{-}.
Based on a sample of 1.31 × 109J / ψ events collected with the BESIII detector, an amplitude analysis of the isospin-violating decays η'→ π + π - π 0 and η' → π 0 π 0 π 0 is performed. A significant ...P-wave contribution from η'→ ρ ± π ∓ is observed for the first time in η' → π + π - π 0 . The branching fraction is determined to be B ( η'→ ρ ± π ∓ ) = ( 7.44 ± 0.60 ± 1.26 ± 1.84 ) × 10-4, where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second systematic, and the third model dependent. In addition to the nonresonant S -wave component, there is a significant σ meson component. The branching fractions of the combined S -wave components are determined to be B ( η' → π + π - π 0 ) S = ( 37.63 ± 0.77 ± 2.22 ± 4.48 ) × 10-4 and B ( η' → π 0 π 0 π 0 ) = ( 35.22 ± 0.82 ± 2.54 ) × 10-4, respectively. Finally, the latter one is consistent with previous BESIII measurements.
Using a data sample collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII storage ring, we observe a new neutral state Z_{c}(3900)^{0} with a significance of 10.4σ. The mass and width are ...measured to be 3894.8±2.3±3.2 MeV/c^{2} and 29.6±8.2±8.2 MeV, respectively, where the first error is statistical and the second systematic. The Born cross section for e^{+}e^{-}→π^{0}π^{0}J/ψ and the fraction of it attributable to π^{0}Z_{c}(3900)^{0}→π^{0}π^{0}J/ψ in the range E_{c.m.}=4.19-4.42 GeV are also determined. We interpret this state as the neutral partner of the four-quark candidate Z_{c}(3900)^{±}.
The cross sections of e^{+}e^{-}→π^{+}π^{-}h_{c} at center-of-mass energies from 3.896 to 4.600 GeV are measured using data samples collected with the BESIII detector operating at the Beijing ...Electron Positron Collider. The cross sections are found to be of the same order of magnitude as those of e^{+}e^{-}→π^{+}π^{-}J/ψ and e^{+}e^{-}→π^{+}π^{-}ψ(2S), but the line shape is inconsistent with the Y states observed in the latter two modes. Two structures are observed in the e^{+}e^{-}→π^{+}π^{-}h_{c} cross sections around 4.22 and 4.39 GeV/c^{2}, which we call Y(4220) and Y(4390), respectively. A fit with a coherent sum of two Breit-Wigner functions results in a mass of (4218.4_{-4.5}^{+5.5}±0.9) MeV/c^{2} and a width of (66.0_{-8.3}^{+12.3}±0.4) MeV for the Y(4220), and a mass of (4391.5_{-6.8}^{+6.3}±1.0) MeV/c^{2} and a width of (139.5_{-20.6}^{+16.2}±0.6) MeV for the Y(4390), where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second ones systematic. The statistical significance of Y(4220) and Y(4390) is 10σ over one structure assumption.

With data samples collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII storage ring at center-of-mass energies from 4.009 to 4.420 GeV, the process e+e-→ γX(3872) is observed for the first time ...with a statistical significance of 6.3σ. The measured mass of the X(3872) is (3871.9 ± 0.7s tat ± 0.2 syst) MeV/c(2), in agreement with previous measurements. Measurements of the product of the cross section σe+e- → γX(3872) and the branching fraction BX(3872)→π+π-J/ψ at center-of-mass energies 4.009, 4.229, 4.260, and 4.360 GeV are reported. Our measurements are consistent with expectations for the radiative transition process Y(4260) → γX(3872).
Titanium alloy Ti-6Al-4V processed by electron beam melting (EBM) has a great potential for orthopedic and aerospace applications. However, the process induced porosity and microstructure anisotropy ...will have a significant impact on the material properties. This work has found that spherical and elongated pores with strong size effect are common characteristics for the as-EBM samples made with horizontal, diagonal, and vertical orientations w.r.t. the substrate. Furthermore, the major axis of the elongated pores is perpendicular to build direction for samples with different build orientations. The microstructure consists of columnar prior β grains delineated by grain boundary α and transformed α/β structures with α’ marteniste and basket weave morphology. Of note is that a high fraction of twin boundaries are prevalent in α (α’) phase. The configuration of the applied load w.r.t. the major axis of the elongated pores is the most significant influencing factor to mechanical properties, while the columnar prior β grain structure is secondary. Fractography reveals that microcracks tend to originate from elongated pores for cleavage fracture. In addition, the co-existing local terrace-like and shallow dimples are attributed to the intergranular crack propagation from the lamella α grain boundaries. Thus, the anisotropy of porosity and microstructure is of significance to enhance mechanical properties in process development.
