The Born iterative method has been presented to study two-dimensional inverse scattering problems for dielectric objects with the aid of left-handed material (LHM). Super-resolution imaging can be achieved since the LHM slab could amplify evanescent waves emitted from transmitters, which are interacted with the dielectric objects and then captured by receivers. The evanescent waves contain high-fr...
The measurement of the Cabibbo-favored semileptonic decay $\Lambda_c^+\rightarrow \Lambda e^+\nu_e$ is reported using a $4.5~\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ data sample of $e^+e^-$ annihilations collected at center-of-mass energies ranging from 4.600~GeV to 4.699~GeV with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider. The branching fraction of the decay is measured to be $\mathcal{B}(\Lambda_c^+\rightarrow \Lambda...
Using $4.5 \mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ annihilation data samples collected at the center-of-mass energies ranging from 4.600 GeV to 4.699 GeV with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, a first study of $\Lambda_c^+$ decaying semileptonically into the inclusive $pK^-$ system $\Lambda_c^+\rightarrow pK^-e^+\nu_e$ is performed. The $\Lambda_c^+\rightarrow pK^-e^+\nu_e$ decay is observed with ...
Based on a data sample of $(448.1\pm2.9)\times10^6$ $\psi(3686)$ events collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, the branching fraction of $\psi(3686)\rightarrow\Lambda\bar{\Lambda}\omega$ is measured to be $\rm (3.30\pm0.34(stat.)\pm0.29(syst. ))\times10^{-5}$ for the first time. The invariant mass spectrum of $\Lambda\omega$ (or $\bar{\Lambda}\omega$) shows evidence of a resona...
Based on a sample of 4.4 $\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ of $e^{+}e^{-}$ annihilation data collected in the energy region between 4.6 GeV and 4.7 GeV with the BESIII detector at BEPCII, two singly Cabibbo-suppressed decays $\Lambda_c^+ \rightarrow \Sigma^0 K^+$ and $\Lambda_{c}^{+} \rightarrow \Sigma^+ K_{S}^0$ are studied. The ratio of the branching fraction $\mathcal{B}(\Lambda_c^+ \rightarrow \Sigma^0 K^+)$...
Using $(448.1 \pm 2.9) \times 10^{6}$ $\psi(3686)$ events collected with the BESIII detector, we perform the first search for the weak baryonic decay $\psi(3686) \to \Lambda_c^{+} \bar{\Sigma}^- +c.c.$. The analysis procedure is optimized using a blinded method. No significant signal is observed, and the upper limit on the branching fraction ($\mathcal B$) of $\psi(3686) \to \Lambda_c^{+} \bar{\Si...
Nonsmooth optimization finds wide applications in many engineering fields. In this work, we propose to utilize the {Randomized Coordinate Subgradient
Method } (RCS) for solving both nonsmooth convex and nonsmooth nonconvex (nonsmooth weakly convex) optimization problems. At each iteration, RCS randomly selects one block coordinate rather than all the coordinates to update. Motivated by practical ...
Two numerical algorithms for analyzing planar central and balanced configurations in the $(n+1)$-body problem with a small mass are presented. The first one relies on a direct solution method of the $(n+1)$-body problem by using a stochastic optimization approach, while the second one relies on an analytic-continuation method, which involves the solutions of the $n$-body and the restricted $(n+1)$...
We study the processes $e^+e^-\rightarrow K^{0}_{\rm S}D_s^+D^{*-}$ and $e^+e^-\rightarrow K^{0}_{\rm S}D_s^{*+}D^{-}$, as well as their charge conjugated processes, at five center-of-mass energies between 4.628~GeV and 4.699~GeV, using data samples corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $3.8~\rm{fb^{-1}}$ collected by the BESIII detector at the BEPCII storage ring. Based on a partial recons...
Based on a sample of (10.09$\pm$0.04)$\times$10$^{9}$ $J/\psi$ events collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII storage ring, a partial wave analysis of the decay $J/\psi \rightarrow \gamma\eta\eta'$ is performed. An isoscalar state with exotic quantum numbers $J^{PC}=1^{-+}$, denoted as $\eta_1(1855)$, has been observed for the first time with statistical significance larger than...
