Abstract

The rare decay $\eta' \to \pi^+ \pi^- e^+ e^-$ is studied using a sample of $1.3 \times 10^9$ $J/\psi$ events collected with the BESIII detector at BEPCII in 2009 and 2012. The branching fraction is measured with improved precision to be $\left( 2.42\pm0.05_{stat.}\pm0.08_{syst.} \right) \times 10^{-3}$. In addition, the CP-violating asymmetry in the angle between the decay planes of the $\pi^+\pi^-$-pair and the $e^+e^-$-pair is investigated. A measurable value would indicate physics beyond the standard model; the result is $\mathcal{A}_{CP} = \left(1.6\pm2.0_{stat.}\pm0.6_{syst.} \right)\%$, which is consistent with the standard model expectation of no CP-violation. The precision is comparable to the asymmetry measurement in the $K^0_L\to\pi^+\pi^-e^+e^-$ decay where the observed $(14\pm2)\%$ effect is driven by a standard model mechanism.

BESIII中η′→π+π−e+e−的分支分数的测量和cp违反不对称性的寻找

利用2009年和2012年在BEPCII的BESIII探测器收集的$1.3 \times 10^9$$J/\psi$事件样本研究了罕见的衰变$\eta' \to \pi^+ \pi^- e^+ e^-$。分支分数测量精度提高为$\left( 2.42\pm0.05_{stat.}\pm0.08_{syst.} \right) \times 10^{-3}$。此外，还研究了$\pi^+\pi^-$ -对和$e^+e^-$ -对衰减面夹角的cp违反不对称性。一个可测量的值将表明超出标准模型的物理;结果为$\mathcal{A}_{CP} = \left(1.6\pm2.0_{stat.}\pm0.6_{syst.} \right)\%$，符合不违反cp的标准模型期望。其精度可与$K^0_L\to\pi^+\pi^-e^+e^-$衰变中的不对称测量相媲美，其中观察到的$(14\pm2)\%$效应是由标准模型机制驱动的。
