  5. Why tau-charm physics is interesting in the past in the era of LHC in the future Abundant resonances(J/y family, huge Xsections) Tau-charm threshold production(in pairs tagging  background free, no fragmentation, kinematic constrains, quantum coherence,…) Charm quark: A bridge between pQCD and non-pQCD A ruler for LQCD J/y decay Gluon rich environment Flavor physics Complementary to LHC: virtual vs real A broad spectrum & efficient machine:

  6. What (highlight) physics interested us hep-ex/0809.1869 • Light hadron spectroscopy • Full spectra: normal & exotic hadrons QCD • How quarks form a hadron ? non-pQCD • Charm physics • CKM matrix elements  SM and beyond • mixing and CPV  SM and beyond • Charmonium physics • Spectroscopy and transition  pQCD & non-pQCD • New states above open charm thresholds  exotic hadrons ? • pQCD: rp puzzle  a probe to non-pQCD or ? • Tau physics and QCD • Precision measurement of the tau mass and R value • Search for rare and forbidden decays Precision test of SM and search for new physics

  7. Light hadron spectroscopy Glueball spectrum from LQCD Many results in BESII: ~ 50 publications Much more from BESIII: 100 statistics, 10 g resolution • Motivation: • Establish spectrum of light hadrons • Search for non-conventional hadrons • Understand how hadrons are formed • Study chiral symmetry in QCD • Why at a tau-charm collider ? • Gluon rich • Larger phase space than at higher energies • Clean environment, JPC filter Y. Chen et al., PRD 73 (2006) 014516

  8. Multi-quark State, Glueball and Hybrid • Hadrons consist of 2 or 3 quarks: Naive Quark Model: • New forms of hadrons: • Multi-quark states:Number of quarks >= 4 • Hybrids:qqg,qqqg … • Glueballs:gg, ggg … Meson( qq ) Baryon(q q q) How quarks/gluons form a hadron is far from being well understood.

  9. Multi-quark states, glueballs and hybrids have been searched for experimentally for a very long time, but none is established.However, the effort has never been stopped, especially, during the past three years, a lot of surprising experimental evidences showed the existence of hadrons that cannot (easily) be explained in the conventional quark model. Searches for new forms of hadrons are of special importance at BES since J/psi decays are believed as an ideal factory to search and to study exotic hadrons.

  10. Charmonium physics • Examples of interesting/long standing issues: • rp puzzle • Missing states ? • Mixing states ? • New states above open charm thre.(X,Y,Z,…) • What to study ? • Production, decays, transition, spectrum • For what ? • A lab for pQCD and non-pQCD • Calibrate LQCD • How quarks form a hadron ? • Why at a tau-charm collider ? • A clean environment • Tagging possible • Abundantly produced

  37. Future prospects at BESIII

  38. Event statistics at BESIII *CLEO took 10 nb D production cross section while we took 5 nb

  39. Precision measurement of CKM:Branching rations of charm mesons • Vcd /Vcs: Leptonic and semi-leptonic decays • Vcb: Hadronic decays • Vtd /Vts: fD and fDs fromLeptonic decays • Vub: Form factors of semi-leptonic decays • Unitarity Test of CKM matrix

  40. CKM matrix elements measurement

  41. Precision test of SMand Search for new Physics • DDbar mixing DDbar mixing in SM ~ 10 –3 -10 –10 DDbar mixing sensitive to “new physics” Our sensitivity : ~ 10-4 • Lepton universality • CP violation • Rare decays FCNC, Lepton no. violation, ...

  42. QCD and hadron production • R-value measurement • pQCD and non-pQCD boundary • Measurement of as at low energies • Hadron production at J/y, y’, and continium • Multiplicity and other topology of hadron event • BEC, correlations, form factors, resonance, etc.

  43. R-value measurement Errors on R will be reduced to 2% from current 6%

  44. Prospects of glueball searches at BESIII

  45. J/ decays are an ideal factory to search for and study light exotic hadrons: • The production cross section of J/ is high. • The production BR of hadrons in J/ decays are one order higher than ’ decays (“12% rule”). • The phase space to 1-3 GeV hadrons in J/ decays are larger than  decays. • Exotic hadrons are naively expected to have larger or similar production BR to conventional hadrons in J/ decays. • Clean background environment compared with hadron collision experiments, e.g., “JP, I” filter.

  46. One Important Physics Goal of BESIII With 1010 J/psi events, we hope to answer: • Whether glueballs exist or not? • Naively, we estimate in each exclusive decay mode: • If the eff. is about 20%, we would have 20000 events for each decay mode  we should observe a relative narrow (width: 50~200MeV) glueball if it exists.

  47. Difficulties (I) • Theoretically: • Predictions on glueball masses from LQCD may be unreliable due to quench approximation. • No predictions on the widths so far (even the order). • No prediction on the production rate (J/  G). • Mix with qqbar mesons or even with 4q, qqg mesons? (dirty?) What is the mixing mechanism from the first principle?

  48. Difficulties (II) • Experimentally: • Data sample is not big enough (it is not a problem for BESIII) • No good way modeling background at low energy, in many cases we have to study bck via data. • Interferences among mesons make the mass/Dalitz plots very complicated  • PWA is crucial for hadron spectroscopy at BESIII • But PWA may face many uncertainties.

  49. About scalar glueball • Many scalar mesons in the mass range 1.4~1.8 GeV, where a scalar glueball is predicted to be. More studies will be performed at BESIII. • More theoretical studies are also needed: • Not only glueball mass, but also width • Decay patterns • Production rate in J/psi radiative decays • Mixing mechanism

  50. 2++ glueball candidates • Lattice QCD predicts the 2++ glueball mass in the range of 2.2~2.4 GeV • (2230) was a candidate of 2++ glueball: • It was first observed at MARKIII in J/KK • It was observed at BES I in J/KK, , ppbar • It was not observed at DM2.
