 2022-08-1513:43 [PUBDB-2022-04404] Preprint Belle Collaboration Search for $X(3872)\to\pi^+\pi^-\pi^0$ at Belle [Belle Preprint 2022-13; KEK Preprint 2022-12; arXiv:2206.08592] We present a search for the decay $X(3872) \to \pi^+\pi^-\pi^0$ in the $(772\pm11)\times10^6$ $\Upsilon(4S)\to B \bar B$ data sample collected at the Belle detector, where the $X(3872)$ is produced in $B^{\pm}\to K^{\pm}X(3872)$ and $B^{0}\to K_{S}^0 X(3872)$ decays. We do not observe a signal, and set 90% credible upper limits for two different models of the decay processes: if the decay products are distributed uniformly in phase space, $\mathcal{B}(X(3872) \to \pi^+\pi^-\pi^0) < 1.3\%$; if $M(\pi^+\pi^-)$ is concentrated near the mass of the $D^0 \bar D^0$ pair in the process $X(3872)\to D^0\bar{D}^{*0}+c.c.\to D^0 \bar D^{0}\pi^0\to\pi^+ \pi^- \pi^0$, $\mathcal{B}(X(3872) \to \pi^+\pi^-\pi^0) < 1.2\times10^{-3}$..

The $\Sigma_{c}(2455)^{0,++}$ candidates are reconstructed via their decay to $\Lambda_{c}^{+} \pi^{\mp}$ and $\Lambda_{c}^{+}$ decays to $pK^{-}\pi^{+},~pK_{S}^{0},$ and $\Lambda\pi^{+}$ final states.

We search for the simultaneous production of $A^\prime$ and $h^\prime$ in the dark Higgsstrahlung process $e^{+}e^{-}\rightarrow A^\prime \, h^\prime$ with $A^\prime \rightarrow \mu^+\mu^-$ and $h^\prime$ invisible in electron-positron collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 10.58 GeV collected by the Belle II experiment in 2019.

The total integrated luminosity of the data sample, which was collected at center-of-mass energies at or near the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance, is $207.2~\mbox{fb}^{-1}$.

M. ; Manashov, A. ; Moch, S.-O. ; et al Axial-vector contributions in two-photon reactions: Pion transition form factor and deeply-virtual Compton scattering at NNLO in QCD [DESY-21-068; arXiv:2106.01437] Physical review / D 104(9), 094007 (2021) [10.1103/PhysRevD.104.094007]   Using the approach based on conformal symmetry we calculate the two-loop coefficient function for the axial-vector contributions to two-photon processes in the $\overline{\rm MS}$ scheme. This is the last missing element for the complete next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) calculation of the the pion transition form factor $\gamma^\ast\gamma\to \pi$ in perturbative QCD.

The perturbative expansion of these moments, and hence of the splitting functions for momentum fractions x≳0.1, is found to be well behaved with relative αs-coefficients of order one and sub-percent effects on the scale derivatives of the quark and gluon distributions at αs≲0.2.

Located along the beam collision axis and shielded from the interaction point by at least 100 m of concrete and rock, the FPF will house experiments that will detect particles outside the acceptance of the existing large LHC experiments and will observe rare and exotic processes in an extremely low-background environment.

This is achieved by computing the scattering angle to O(G$^4$) using the effective field theory approach and deriving the bound radial action through analytic continuation.
