Searches for the process of electron–positron (
) annihilation to the

meson were performed by means of the CMD-3 detector at the VEPP-2000
collider. In the data analysis, use was made of two ...dominant modes of
-meson decay to
and
, where
was reconstructed in the
channel. By employing a 3.7 pb
data sample accumulated at the c.m. energy of
MeV, an upper bound of
on the decay branching ratio was obtained at a
confidence level.
A preliminary result of an analysis of the process
whose cross section was measured in the range of center-of-mass collision energies between 1.2 and 2 GeV is presented. The analysis is based on the ...data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of about 120 pb
accumulated with the CMD-3 detector at the VEPP-2000 electron–positron collider. A procedure for separating signal events is developed, and the dominance of the
neutral mode is confirmed. The cross section for the process
is measured to a precision higher than that in earlier experiments. This permits improving the accuracy in measuring the mass and width of the
(1680) meson, testing the accuracy of the isotopic relations, and more accurately calculating the hadronic contribution to the muon anomalous magnetic moment (
).
The cross section of the process e + e − → π + π − has been measured in the center of mass energy range from 0.32 to 1.2 GeV with the CMD-3 detector at the electron-positron collider VEPP-2000. The ...measurement is based on a full dataset collected below 1 GeV during three data taking seasons, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of about 62 pb − 1 . In the dominant ρ -resonance region, a systematic uncertainty of 0.7% has been reached. At energies around ϕ -resonance the π + π − production cross section was measured for the first time with high beam energy resolution. The forward-backward charge asymmetry in the π + π − production has also been measured. It shows a strong deviation from the theoretical prediction based on the conventional scalar quantum electrodynamics framework, and it is in good agreement with the generalized vector-meson-dominance and dispersive-based predictions. The impact of the presented results on the evaluation of the hadronic contribution to the anomalous magnetic moment of muon is discussed. Published by the American Physical Society 2024

Since 2010 the CMD-3 detector has been collecting data at the e+e− collider VEPP-2000 at Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics. CMD-3 is a general purpose detector designed to study e+e− annihilation ...into hadrons in the wide energy range s=0.3–2GeV. The CMD-3 barrel electromagnetic calorimeter consists of two subsystems: closest to the beam pipe is the Liquid Xenon calorimeter and the outer one is based on CsI scintillation crystals. The design of the calorimeter and its current performance are presented.
The paper describes a method of the charged particle identification, developed for the CMD-3 detector, installed at the VEPP-2000 e+e− collider. The method is based on application of boosted decision ...trees classifiers, trained for the optimal separation of electrons, muons, pions and kaons in the momentum range from 100 to 1200MeV/c. The input variables for the classifiers are linear combinations of the energy depositions of charged particles in 12 layers of the liquid xenon calorimeter of the CMD-3. The event samples for training of the classifiers are taken from the simulation. Various issues of the calorimeter strip channels response simulation and their calibration are considered. Application of the method is illustrated by the examples of separation of the e+e−(γ) and π+π−(γ) final states and of selection of the K+K− final state at high energies.
The cross section of the process e + e − → π + π − has been measured in the center-of-mass energy range from 0.32 to 1.2 GeV with the CMD-3 detector at the electron-positron collider VEPP-2000. The ...measurement is based on an integrated luminosity of about 88 pb − 1 , of which 62 pb − 1 represent a complete dataset collected by CMD-3 at center-of-mass energies below 1 GeV. In the dominant region near the ρ resonance a systematic uncertainty of 0.7% was achieved. The implications of the presented results for the evaluation of the hadronic contribution to the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon are discussed. Published by the American Physical Society 2024
