Abstract: We report on the first measurement of the direct $CP$-violating asymmetry ($\mathcal{A}$) in the charmless decay $B^0 \to K^0\pi^0$ at Belle II and an updated measurement of its branching fraction ($\mathcal{B}$). We use a sample of electron-positron collisions collected in 2019 and 2020 at the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance and corresponding to $62.8$ $\text{fb}^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity. We reconstruct and select about $50$ $B^0 \to K_S^0 \pi^0$ candidates, and we measure $\mathcal{A}_{{K^0\pi^0}} = -0.40_{-0.44}^{+0.46} (\text{stat}) \pm 0.04 (\text{syst})$ and $\mathcal{B}(B^0 \to K^0 \pi^0) = [8.5_{-1.6}^{+1.7} (\text{stat}) \pm 1.2 (\text{syst})] \times 10^{-6}$. This is the first measurement of $CP$ violation in $B^0 \to K^0\pi^0$ decays reported by Belle II. The results agree with previous determinations and show a detector performance comparable with the best Belle results., Comment: 19 pages, 5 figures. Supporting material for Winter 2021 conferences

Abstract: The branching fractions of the decays $B^{+} \to \eta \ell^{+} \nu_{\ell}$ and $B^{+} \to \eta^{\prime} \ell^{+} \nu_{\ell}$ are measured, where $\ell$ is either an electron or a muon, using a data sample of $711\,{\rm fb}^{-1}$ containing $772 \times 10^6 B\bar{B}$ pairs collected at the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+ e^-$ collider. To reduce the dependence of the result on the form factor model, the measurement is performed over the entire $q^2$ range. The resulting branching fractions are ${\cal B}(B^{+} \rightarrow \eta \ell^{+} \nu_{\ell}) = (2.83 \pm 0.55_{\rm (stat.)} \pm 0.34_{\rm (syst.)}) \times 10^{-5}$ and ${\cal B}(B^{+} \rightarrow \eta' \ell^{+} \nu_{\ell}) = (2.79 \pm 1.29_{\rm (stat.)} \pm 0.30_{\rm (syst.)}) \times 10^{-5}$., Comment: 9 pages, 3 figures

Abstract: A search for the flavor-changing neutral-current decay $B^{+}\to K^{+}\nu\bar{\nu}$ is performed at the Belle II experiment at the SuperKEKB asymmetric energy electron-positron collider. The results are based on a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $63\,\mbox{fb}^{-1}$ collected at the $\Upsilon{(4S)}$ resonance and a sample of $9\,\mbox{fb}^{-1}$ collected at an energy $60\mathrm{\,Me\kern -0.1em V}$ below the resonance. A novel measurement method is employed, which exploits topological properties of the $B^{+}\to K^{+}\nu\bar{\nu}$ decay that differ from both generic bottom-meson decays and light-quark pair production. This inclusive tagging approach offers a higher signal efficiency compared to previous searches. No significant signal is observed. An upper limit on the branching fraction of $B^{+}\to K^{+}\nu\bar{\nu}$ of $4.1 \times 10^{-5}$ is set at the 90% confidence level., Comment: 10 pages, 3 figures + supplemental material

Abstract: Using a data sample of 980 fb$^{-1}$ collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+e^-$ collider, we study the processes of $\Xi^0_c\to \Lambda\bar K^{*0}$, $\Xi^0_c\to \Sigma^0\bar K^{*0}$, and $\Xi^0_c\to \Sigma^+K^{*-}$ for the first time. The relative branching ratios to the normalization mode of $\Xi^0_c\to\Xi^-\pi^+$ are measured to be $${\cal B}(\Xi^0_c\to \Lambda\bar K^{*0})/{\cal B}(\xic\to \Xi^-\pi^+)=0.18\pm0.02({\rm stat.})\pm0.01({\rm syst.}),$$ $${\cal B}(\Xi^0_c\to \Sigma^0\bar K^{*0})/{\cal B}(\xic\to \Xi^-\pi^+)=0.69\pm0.03({\rm stat.})\pm0.03({\rm syst.}),$$ $${\cal B}(\Xi^0_c\to \Sigma^+K^{*-})/{\cal B}(\xic\to \Xi^-\pi^+)=0.34\pm0.06({\rm stat.})\pm0.02({\rm syst.}),$$ where the uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively. We obtain %measure the branching fractions of $\Xi^0_c\to \Lambda\bar K^{*0}$, $\Xi^0_c\to \Sigma^0\bar K^{*0}$, and $\Xi^0_c\to \Sigma^+K^{*-}$ to be $${\cal B}(\Xi^0_c\to \Lambda\bar K^{*0})=(3.3\pm0.3({\rm stat.})\pm0.2({\rm syst.})\pm1.0({\rm ref.}))\times10^{-3},$$ $${\cal B}(\Xi^0_c\to \Sigma^0\bar K^{*0})=(12.4\pm0.5({\rm stat.})\pm0.5({\rm syst.})\pm3.6({\rm ref.}))\times10^{-3},$$ $${\cal B}(\Xi^0_c\to \Sigma^+K^{*-})=(6.1\pm1.0({\rm stat.})\pm0.4({\rm syst.})\pm1.8({\rm ref.}))\times10^{-3},$$ where the uncertainties are statistical, systematic, and from ${\cal B}(\xic \to \Xi^-\pi^+)$, respectively. The asymmetry parameters $\alpha(\Xi^0_c\to \Lambda\bar K^{*0})$ and $\alpha(\Xi^0_c\to \Sigma^+K^{*-})$ are $0.15\pm0.22({\rm stat.})\pm0.04({\rm syst.})$ and $-0.52\pm0.30({\rm stat.})\pm0.02({\rm syst.})$, respectively, where the uncertainties are statistical followed by systematic., Comment: 18 pages, 4 figures, 8 tables, accepted for publication in JHEP

Abstract: We report the first measurement of the exclusive cross sections $e^+e^-\to B\bar{B}$, $e^+e^-\to B\bar{B}^*$, and $e^+e^-\to B^*\bar{B}^*$ in the energy range from 10.63 GeV to 11.02 GeV. The $B$ mesons are fully reconstructed in a large number of hadronic final states and the three channels are identified using a beam-constrained-mass variable. The shapes of the exclusive cross sections show oscillatory behavior with several maxima and minima. The results are obtained using data collected by the Belle experiment at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+e^-$ collider., Comment: 35 pages, 17 figures, version accepted by JHEP

Abstract: This note describes the rediscovery of $B\to\eta' K$ decays in Belle II data, both in the charged and neutral final state: $B_0\to\eta' K_S$ and $B^\pm\to\eta' K^\pm$. The $\eta'$ is searched for in two decay modes: $\eta'\to\eta\pi^+\pi^-$ with $\eta\to\gamma\gamma$, and $\eta'\to\rho\gamma$. The analysis uses data collected in 2019 and 2020 at the SuperKEKB asymmetric $e^+e^-$ collider, with an integrated luminosity of $62.8~fb^{-1}$, corresponding to $68.2$ million of $B\bar{B}$ pairs produced. The signal yield is obtained via an unbinned maximum likelihood fit to signal sensitive variables, obtaining branching ratios: $$\mathcal{B}\left(B^\pm\to\eta'K^\pm\right) = \left(63.4~^{+3.4}_{-3.3}\,(stat)\,\pm3.2\,(syst)\,\right) \times10^{-6} $$ $$\mathcal{B}\left(B_0\to\eta'K_S\right) = \left(59.9~^{+5.8}_{-5.5}\,(stat)\,\pm2.9\,(syst)\,\right) \times10^{-6} $$ which are consistent with world average., Comment: 17 pages, 6 figures

Abstract: We report measurements related to hadronic $B$ decays to final states that contain charm mesons. The analyses are performed on a $62.8~\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ data set collected by the Belle II experiment at a center-of-mass energy corresponding to the mass of the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance. The measurements reported are for the decay modes $B^-\to D^0 h^-$, $B^{-}\to D^{*0}h^-$, $\bar{B}^{0}\to D^{+} h^{-}$ and $\bar{B}^{0}\to D^{*+} h^{-}$, where $h=\pi$ or $K$. These modes are either signal or control channels for measurements related to the unitarity triangle angle $\gamma$ in direct or time-dependent $CP$-violation measurements. The reported observables are the ratios between the $B\to D^{(*)}K$ and $B\to D^{(*)}\pi$ decay rates, which are found to be in agreement with previous measurements., Comment: 19 pages, 5 figures, Moriond QCD

Abstract: We report measurements of the branching fractions and $CP$ asymmetries for $D_s^{+} \rightarrow K^{+} \eta $, $D_s^{+} \rightarrow K^{+} \pi^0 $, and $D_s^{+} \rightarrow \pi^{+} \eta $ decays, and the branching fraction for $D_s^{+} \rightarrow \pi^{+} \pi^0$. Our results are based on a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 921 fb$^{-1}$ collected by the Belle detector at the KEKB $e^+e^-$ asymmetric-energy collider. Our measurements of $CP$ asymmetries in these decays are the most precise to-date; no evidence for $CP$ violation is found., Comment: 11 pages, 4 figures

Abstract: Using data samples of 89.5 and 711 fb$^{-1}$ recorded at energies of $\sqrt{s}=10.52$ and $10.58$ GeV, respectively, with the Belle detector at the KEKB $e^+e^-$ collider, we report measurements of branching fractions of semileptonic decays $\Xi_{c}^{0} \to \Xi^{-} \ell^{+} \nu_{\ell}$ ($\ell=e$ or $\mu$) and the $CP$-asymmetry parameter of $\Xi_{c}^{0} \to \Xi^{-} \pi^{+}$ decay. The branching fractions are measured to be ${\cal B}(\Xi_{c}^{0} \to \Xi^{-} e^{+} \nu_{e})=(1.31 \pm 0.04 \pm 0.07 \pm 0.38)\%$ and ${\cal B}(\Xi_{c}^{0} \to \Xi^{-} \mu^{+} \nu_{\mu})=(1.27 \pm 0.06 \pm 0.10 \pm 0.37)\%$, and the decay parameter $\alpha_{\Xi\pi}$ is measured to be $0.63 \pm 0.03 \pm 0.01$ with much improved precision compared to the current world average. The corresponding ratio ${\cal B}(\Xi_{c}^{0} \to \Xi^{-} e^{+} \nu_{e})/{\cal B}(\Xi_{c}^{0} \to \Xi^{-} \mu^{+} \nu_{\mu})$ is $1.03 \pm 0.05\pm 0.07$, which is consistent with the expectation of lepton flavor universality. The first measured asymmetry parameter ${\cal A}_{CP} = (\alpha_{\Xi^{-}\pi^{+}} + \alpha_{\bar{\Xi}^{+}\pi^{-}})/(\alpha_{\Xi^{-}\pi^{+}} - \alpha_{\bar{\Xi}^{+}\pi^{-}}) = 0.024 \pm 0.052 \pm 0.014$ is found to be consistent with zero. The first and the second uncertainties above are statistical and systematic, respectively, while the third ones arise due to the uncertainty of the $\Xi_{c}^{0} \to \Xi^{-} \pi^+$ branching fraction., Comment: 8 pages, 2 figures, 1 table, accepted for publication as a Letter in Physical Review Letters

The factors associated with the characteristics of the four activity phenotypes defined by the durations of PA and SB are largely unknown. The aim of this study was to clarify the factors that could differentiate each activity phenotype.Materials and Methods: Study subjects were outpatients with stable COPD who were ≥ 40 years of age. We investigated the influence of 26 different factors on the activity phenotypes of COPD and extracted the factors that showed significant differences among the four activity phenotypes.Results: Two hundred sixteen patients were included in the analysis. Exercise capacity and dyspnea were determinants that distinguished the low PA groups from the high PA groups. The pulmonary function and desaturation during exercise were factors that distinguished the high PA with low SB group from the low PA with high SB group. BMI, grip strength, upper arm circumference and HbA1c were higher in the low PA and low SB group than in the low PA and high SB group.Conclusion: These factors could be the determinants discriminating activity phenotypes of patients with COPD.Keywords: COPD, physical activity, sedentary behavior, nutritional status, muscle strength

Abstract: We report measurements of the branching fractions of singly Cabibbo-suppressed decays $\Lambda_c^+ \to p \eta$ and $\Lambda_c^+ \to p \pi^0$ using the full Belle data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 980.6 $\rm fb^{-1}$. The data were collected by the Belle detector at the KEKB $e^{+}$$e^{-}$ asymmetric-energy collider. A clear $\Lambda_c^+$ signal is seen in the invariant mass distribution of $p \eta$. The signal yield of the $\Lambda_c^+ \to p \eta$ process is $7734 \pm 263$; from this, we measure the ratio of branching fractions ${\cal B}(\Lambda_c^+ \to p \eta)/{\cal B}(\Lambda_c^+ \to p K^- \pi^+) = (2.258 \pm 0. 077(\rm stat. ) \pm 0.136(\rm syst. ))\times 10^{-2}$, from which we infer the branching fraction ${\cal B}(\Lambda_c^+ \to p \eta) = (1.42 \pm 0.05(\rm stat.) \pm 0.11(\rm syst.)) \times 10^{-3}$. In addition, no significant signal for $\Lambda_c^+ \to p \pi^0$ is found so an upper limit on the branching fraction of ${\cal B}(\Lambda_c^+ \to p \pi^0)<8.0 \times 10^{-5}$ at 90\% credibility level is set, more than three times better than the best current upper limit., Comment: 9 pages, 7 figures, accepted for publication as a Regular Article in Physical Review D

Abstract: We present measurements of partial branching fractions of inclusive semileptonic $B \to X_u \, \ell^+\, \nu_{\ell}$ decays using the full Belle data set of 711 fb$^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity at the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance and for $\ell = e, \mu$. Inclusive semileptonic $B \to X_u \, \ell^+\, \nu_{\ell}$ decays are CKM suppressed and measurements are complicated by the large background from CKM-favored $B \to X_c \, \ell^+\, \nu_{\ell}$ transitions, which have a similar signature. Using machine learning techniques, we reduce this and other backgrounds effectively, whilst retaining access to a large fraction of the $B \to X_u \, \ell^+\, \nu_{\ell}$ phase space and high signal efficiency. We measure partial branching fractions in three phase-space regions covering about $31\%$ to $86\%$ of the accessible $B \to X_u \, \ell^+\, \nu_{\ell}$ phase space. The most inclusive measurement corresponds to the phase space with lepton energies of $E_\ell^B > 1 $ GeV, and we obtain $\Delta \mathcal{B}(B \to X_u \ell^+ \, \nu_\ell) = \left( 1.59 \pm 0.07 \pm 0.16 \right) \times 10^{-3}$ from a two-dimensional fit of the hadronic mass spectrum and the four-momentum-transfer squared distribution, with the uncertainties denoting the statistical and systematic error. We find $\left| V_{ub} \right| = \left( 4.10 \pm 0.09 \pm 0.22 \pm 0.15 \right) \times 10^{-3}$ from an average of four calculations for the partial decay rate with the third uncertainty denoting the average theory error. This value is higher but compatible with the determination from exclusive semileptonic decays within 1.3 standard deviations. In addition, we report charmless inclusive partial branching fractions separately for $B^+$ and $B^0$ mesons as well as for electron and muon final states. No isospin breaking or lepton flavor universality violating effects are observed., Comment: 34 pages, 23 figures, 7 tables. Accepted by Phys. Rev. D

Abstract: Using the entire data sample of $980$ $fb^{-1}$ integrated luminosity collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^{+}e^{-}$ collider, we present an amplitude analysis measuring the branching fractions of the Cabibbo-allowed, $W$-exchange resonant decay $\Xi_{c}^{0} \rightarrow \Xi^{0} \phi (\to K^+ K^-)$ with a polarized $\phi$ and the non-resonant decay via a direct process $\Xi_{c}^{0} \rightarrow \Xi^{0} K^+ K^-$. We present these measurements, relative to the normalization mode $\Xi^{-}\pi^{+}$, and find branching ratios $\frac{\mathcal{B}(\Xi_{c}^{0} \rightarrow \Xi^{0} \phi (\rightarrow K^{+}K^{-}))}{\mathcal{B}(\Xi_{c}^{0} \rightarrow \Xi^{-} \pi^{+})} = 0.036 \pm 0.004 (stat.) \pm 0.002 (syst.)$ and $\frac{\mathcal{B}(\Xi_{c}^{0} \rightarrow \Xi^{0} K^{+} K^{-})}{\mathcal{B}(\Xi_{c}^{0} \rightarrow \Xi^{-} \pi^{+})} = 0.039 \pm 0.004 (stat.) \pm 0.002 (syst.)$ which suggest that only minor cusping peaks occur in the combinatorial background of $\Omega^{*-} \to \Xi^{0}K^{-}$ due to these $\Xi_{c}^{0}$ decays., Comment: 10 pages, 7 figures, 1 table, On behalf of the Belle Collaboration, Accepted by Phys.

Abstract: We present a search for the dark photon $A^{\prime}$ in the $B^0 \to A^{\prime} A^{\prime}$ decays, where $A^{\prime}$ subsequently decays to $e^+ e^-$, $\mu^+ \mu^-$, and $\pi^+ \pi^-$. The search is performed by analyzing $772 \times 10^6$ $B\overline{B}$ events collected by the Belle detector at the KEKB $e^+ e^-$ energy-asymmetric collider at the $\Upsilon (4S)$ resonance. No signal is found in the dark photon mass range $0.01~\mathrm{GeV}/c^2 \le m_{A^{\prime}} \le 2.62~\mathrm{GeV}/c^2$, and we set upper limits of the branching fraction of $B^0 \to A^{\prime} A^{\prime}$ at the 90\% confidence level. The products of branching fractions, $\mathcal{B}(B^0 \to A^{\prime} A^{\prime}) \times \mathcal{B}(A^{\prime} \to e^+ e^-)^2$ and $\mathcal{B}(B^0 \to A^{\prime} A^{\prime}) \times \mathcal{B}(A^{\prime} \to \mu^+ \mu^-)^2$, have limits of the order of $10^{-8}$ depending on the $A^{\prime}$ mass. Furthermore, considering $A^{\prime}$ decay rate to each pair of charged particles, the upper limits of $\mathcal{B}(B^0 \to A^{\prime} A^{\prime})$ are of the order of $10^{-8}$-$10^{-5}$. From the upper limits of $\mathcal{B}(B^0 \to A^{\prime} A^{\prime})$, we obtain the Higgs portal coupling for each assumed dark photon and dark Higgs mass. The Higgs portal couplings are of the order of $10^{-2}$-$10^{-1}$ at $m_{h'} \simeq m_{B^0} \pm 40~\mathrm{MeV}/c^2$ and $10^{-1}$-$1$ at $m_{h'} \simeq m_{B^0} \pm 3~\mathrm{GeV}/c^2$., Comment: 15 pages, 7 figures

In the absence of a signal, $90\%$ confidence-level upper limits are set on the branching fractions of these decays in the range $(1.8$-$4.0)\times 10^{-8}$. We set the world's first limits on the first four channels and improve the existing limits by an order of magnitude for the last two channels., Comment: 8 pages, 5 figures, 1 table

Abstract: We report on first measurements of branching fractions~($\mathcal{B}$) and CP-violating charge asymmetries~($\mathcal{A}$) in charmless $B$ decays at Belle~II. We use a sample of electron-positron collisions collected in 2019 and 2020 at the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance and corresponding to $34.6$\,fb$^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity. We use simulation to determine optimized event selections. The $\Delta E$ distributions of the resulting samples, restricted in $M_{\rm bc}$, are fit to determine signal yields. Signal yields are corrected for efficiencies determined from simulation and control data samples to obtain branching fractions and CP-violating asymmetries for flavour-specific channels. These are the first measurements in charmless decays reported by Belle~II. Results are compatible with known determinations and show detector performance comparable with the best Belle results offering a reliable basis to assess projections for future reach., Comment: 33 pages, 22 figures.

Abstract: In the Standard Model (SM) charmless hadronic decays $B_s^0 \rightarrow \eta^\prime \eta$ proceed via tree-level $b\to u$ and penguin $b\to s$ transitions. Penguin transitions are sensitive to Beyond-the-Standard-Model (BSM) physics scenarios and could affect the branching fractions and {\it CP} asymmetries in such decays. Once branching fractions for two-body decays $B_s \to \eta\eta, \eta\eta^{\prime}, \eta^{\prime}\eta^{\prime} $ are measured, and the theoretical uncertainties are reduced, it would be possible to extract {\it CP} violating parameters from the data using the formalism based on SU(3)/U(3) symmetry. To achieve this goal, at least four of these six branching fractions need to be measured. Only the branching fraction for $B_s^0 \to \eta^{\prime}\eta^{\prime}$ has been measured so far.

Abstract: We present measurements of the first six hadronic mass moments in semileptonic $B \rightarrow X_c \ell \nu $ decays. The hadronic mass moments, together with other observables of inclusive $B$ decays, can be used to determine the CKM matrix element $|{V_{cb}}|$ and mass of the $b$-quark $m_b$ in the context of Heavy Quark Expansions of QCD. The Belle~II data recorded at the $\Upsilon (4S)$ resonance in 2019 and 2020 (March-July), corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $34.6\;\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$, is used for this measurement. The decay $\Upsilon (4S) \rightarrow B \overline{B}$ is reconstructed by applying the hadronic tagging algorithm provided by the Full Event Interpretation to fully reconstruct one $B$ meson. The second $B$ meson is reconstructed inclusively by selecting a high-momentum lepton. The $X_c$ system is identified by the remaining reconstructed tracks and clusters in the electromagnetic calorimeter. We report preliminary results for the hadronic mass moments $\langle M_X^n \rangle $ with $n=1,\dots,6$, measured as a function of a lower cut on the lepton momentum in the signal $B$ rest frame.

Abstract: Using 980 $fb^-1$ of data collected with the Belle detector operating at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e^+e^- collider, we report a study of the electromagnetic decays of excited {charmed baryons} $\Xi_c(2790)$ and $\Xi_c(2815)$. A clear signal (8.6 standard deviations) is observed for $\Xi_c(2815)^0 \to \Xi_c^0\gamma$, and we measure: $B[\Xi_c(2815)^0 \to \Xi_c^0\gamma]/B[\Xi_c(2815)^0 \to \Xi_c(2645)^+\pi^- \to \Xi_c^0\pi^+\pi^-] = 0.41 \pm 0.05 \pm 0.03$. We also present evidence (3.8 standard deviations) for the similar decay of the $\Xi_c(2790)^0$ and measure: $B[\Xi_c(2790)^{0}\to\Xi_c^{0}\gamma]/B[\Xi_c(2790)^0\to\Xi_c^{\prime +}\pi^{-}\to\Xi_c^{+}\gamma \pi^-] = 0.13 \pm 0.03 \pm 0.02$. The first quoted uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic. We find no hint of the analogous decays of the $\Xi_c(2815)^+$ and $\Xi_c(2790)^+$ baryons and set upper limits at the 90% confidence level of: $B[\Xi_c(2815)^{+}\to\Xi_c^{+}\gamma]/B[\Xi_c(2815)^+\to\Xi_c(2645)^0\pi^+\to\Xi_c^+\pi^-\pi^+] < 0.09,$ and $B[\Xi_c(2790)^{+}\to\Xi_c^{+}\gamma]/B[\Xi_c(2790)^+\to\Xi_c^{\prime 0}\pi^{+}\to\Xi_c^{0}\gamma \pi^+] < 0.06.$ Approximate values of the partial widths of the decays are extracted, which can be used to discriminate between models of the underlying quark structure of these excited states., Comment: Submitted to Phys.

Abstract: We report the results of a first search for a doubly-charged $DDK$ bound state, denoted the $R^{++}$, in $\Upsilon(1S)$ and $\Upsilon(2S)$ inclusive decays and via direct production in $e^+e^-$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 10.520, 10.580, and 10.867 GeV. The search uses data accumulated with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+e^-$ collider. No significant signals are observed in the $D^{+}D_{s}^{*+}$ invariant-mass spectra of all studied modes. The 90\% credibility level upper limits on their product branching fractions in $\Upsilon(1S)$ and $\Upsilon(2S)$ inclusive decays (${\cal B}(\Upsilon(1S,2S) \to R^{++} + anything) \times {\cal B}(R^{++} \to D^{+} D_{s}^{*+})$), and the product values of Born cross section and branching fraction in $e^+e^-$ collisions ($\sigma(e^+e^- \to R^{++} + anything) \times {\cal B}(R^{++} \to D^{+} D_{s}^{*+})$) at $\sqrt{s}$ = 10.520, 10.580, and 10.867 GeV under different assumptions of $R^{++}$ masses varying from 4.13 to 4.17 GeV/$c^2$, and widths varying from 0 to 5 MeV are obtained., Comment: 14 pages, 11 figures, accepted for publication as a Regular Article in Physical Review D

Abstract: We report branching fraction measurements of four decay modes of the $\Lambda_{c}^{+}$ baryon, each of which includes an $\eta$ meson and a $\Lambda$ baryon in the final state, and all of which are measured relative to the $\Lambda_{c}^{+} \rightarrow p K^{-} pi^{+}$ decay mode. The results are based on a $980~\mathrm{fb^{-1}}$ data sample collected by the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^{+}e^{-}$ collider. Two decays, $\eta \Sigma^{0} \pi^{+}$ and $\Lambda(1670) \pi^{+}$, are observed for the first time, while the measurements of the other decay modes, $\Lambda_{c}^{+} \rightarrow \eta\Lambda\pi^{+}$ and $\eta\Sigma(1385)^{+}$, are more precise than those made previously. We obtain $\mathcal{B}(\Lambda_{c}^{+} \rightarrow \eta \Lambda \pi^{+})/\mathcal{B}(\Lambda_{c}^{+} \rightarrow p K^{-} \pi^{+})$ = $0.293 \pm 0.003 \pm 0.014$, $\mathcal{B}(\Lambda_{c}^{+} \rightarrow \eta \Sigma^{0} \pi^{+})/\mathcal{B}(\Lambda_{c}^{+} \rightarrow p K^{-} \pi^{+})$ = $0.120 \pm 0.006 \pm 0.006$, $\mathcal{B}(\Lambda_{c}^{+} \rightarrow \Lambda(1670) \pi^{+}) \times \mathcal{B}(\Lambda(1670) \rightarrow \eta \Lambda)/\mathcal{B}(\Lambda_{c}^{+} \rightarrow p K^{-} \pi^{+})$ = $(5.54 \pm 0.29 \pm 0.73 ) \times 10^{-2}$, and $\mathcal{B}(\Lambda_{c}^{+} \rightarrow \eta \Sigma(1385)^{+})/\mathcal{B}(\Lambda_{c}^{+} \rightarrow p K^{-} \pi^{+})$ = $0.192 \pm 0.006 \pm 0.016$. The mass and width of the $\Lambda(1670)$ are also precisely determined to be $1674.3 \pm 0.8 \pm 4.9~{\rm MeV}/c^{2}$ and $36.1 \pm 2.4 \pm 4.8~{\rm MeV}$, respectively, where the uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively., Comment: To be submitted to Physical Review D

Abstract: We present a first measurement of the $\bar{B^{0}} \rightarrow D^{*+} \ell^{-} \nu_{\ell}$ branching fraction using fully reconstructed $B$ meson decays employing the Full Event Interpretation algorithm. Collision events corresponding to an integrated luminosity of \lumi are analyzed, which were recorded by the Belle~II detector operated at the SuperKEKB accelerator complex. We measure$\cal{B}(\bar{B^{0}} \rightarrow D^{*+} \ell^{-} \nu_{\ell}) =4.51 \pm 0.41_{stat}\pm0.27_{syst} \pm0.45_{\pi_s}$, with the first and second error denoting the statistical and systematic uncertainty, respectively, and the third dominant uncertainty is from the slow pion reconstruction efficiency., Comment: 15 pages, 4 figures, ICHEP 2020

Abstract: We present the results of the re-discovery of the decay $B^0 \to \pi^- \ell^+ \nu_\ell$ in 34.6 fb$^{-1}$ of Belle II data using hadronic $B$-tagging via the Full Event Interpretation algorithm. We observe 21 signal events on a background of 155 in a fit to the distribution of the square of the missing mass, $M_{\mathrm{miss}}^2$, with a significance of 5.69$\sigma$, and determine a total branching fraction of (1.58 $\pm$ 0.43$_{\mathrm{stat}}$ $\pm$ 0.07$_{\mathrm{sys}}$) $\times 10^{-4}$.

Abstract: We report measurements of the $\bar{B}^0 \to D^{*+} \ell^{-} \bar{\nu}_l$ and $B^- \to D^{0} \ell^{-} \bar{\nu}_l$ processes using 34.6 fb$^{-1}$ of collision events recorded by the Belle II experiment at the SuperKEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+ e^-$ collider. For the $B^-\to D^{0}\ell^-\bar\nu_\ell$ channel, we present first studies that isolate this decay from other semileptonic processes and backgrounds. We report a measurement of the $\bar{B}^0 \to D^{*+} \ell^{-} \bar{\nu}_l$ branching fraction and obtain ${\cal B}(\bar{B}^0 \to D^{*+} \ell^{-} \bar{\nu}_l) = \left(4.60 \pm 0.05_{\mathrm{stat}}\pm0.17_{\mathrm{syst}} \pm 0.45_{\pi_s}\right) \%$, in agreement with the world average. Here, the uncertainties are statistical, systematic, and related to slow pion reconstruction, respectively. The systematic uncertainties are limited by the statistics of auxiliary measurements and will improve in the future. We also report differential branching fractions in five bins of the hadronic recoil parameter $w$ for $\bar{B}^0 \to D^{*+} \ell^{-} \bar{\nu}_l$, unfolded to account for resolution and efficiency effects., Comment: 19 pages, 6 figures

Abstract: Tag-side reconstruction is an important method for reconstructing $B$ meson decays with missing energy. The Belle II tag-side reconstruction algorithm, Full Event Interpretation, relies on a hierarchical reconstruction of $B$ meson decays with multivariate classification employed at each stage of reconstruction. Given the large numbers of classifiers employed and decay chains reconstructed, the performance of the algorithm on data and simulation differs significantly. Here, calibration factors are derived for hadronic tag-side $B$ decays by measuring a signal side decay, $B \rightarrow X\ell \nu$, in $34.6$ fb$^{-1}$ of Belle II data. For a very loose selection on the tag-side $B$ multivariate classifier, the calibration factors are $0.65 \pm 0.02$ and $0.83 \pm 0.03$ for tag-side $B^{+}$ and $B^{0}$ mesons, respectively.

Abstract: The reconstruction of tau-pair production, $e^{+}e^{-} \to \tau^{+}\tau^{-}$, from the subsequent 3-prong ($\tau^{+} \rightarrow \pi^{+} \pi^{-} \pi^{+} \bar{\nu}_{\tau}$) and 1-prong ($\tau^{-} \to \ell^{-} \bar{\nu}_{\ell} \nu_{\tau}$, $\tau^{-} \to h^{-} \nu_{\tau}$ or $\tau^{-} \to \pi^{-} \pi^0 \nu_{\tau}$) decays, is presented using 8.8 fb$^{-1}$ of $e^{+}e^{-}$ collision data of Belle II at the center-of-mass energy $\sqrt{s} = m_{\Upsilon(4S)}$. The pseudomass technique developed by the ARGUS experiment is used to measure the $\tau$-lepton mass $m_{\tau}$ in the 3-prong $\tau^{+} \to \pi^{+} \pi^{-} \pi^{+} \bar{\nu}_{\tau} $ decay, resulting in $m_{\tau} = 1777.28 \pm 0.75~{\rm (stat.)} \pm 0.33 ~{\rm (sys.)}~{\rm{MeV}/\rm{c}^2}$.

Abstract: The enhancement of charged-particle pairs with large pseudorapidity difference and small azimuthal angle difference, often referred to as the ``ridge signal'', is a phenomenon widely observed in high multiplicity proton-proton, proton-ion and deutron-ion collisions, which is not yet fully understood. In heavy-ion collisions, the hydrodynamic expansion of the Quark-Gluon Plasma is one of the possible explanations of the origin of the ridge signal. Measurements in the $e^+e^-$ collision system, without the complexities introduced by hadron structure in the initial state, can serve as a complementary probe to examine the formation of a ridge signal. The first measurement of two-particle angular correlation functions in high multiplicity $e^+e^-$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}=10.52$ GeV is reported. The hadronic $e^+e^-$ annihilation data collected by the Belle detector at KEKB are used in this study. Two-particle angular correlation functions are measured over the full azimuth and large pseudorapidity intervals which are defined by either the electron beam axis or the event thrust as a function of charged particle multiplicity. The measurement in the event thrust analysis, with mostly outgoing quark pairs determining the reference axis, is sensitive to the region of additional soft gluon emissions. No significant ridge signal is observed with either coordinates analyses. Near side jet correlations appear to be absent in the thrust axis analysis. The measurements are compared to predictions from various event generators and expected to provide new constraints to the phenomenological models in the low energy regime., Comment: 13 pages, 5 figures.

Abstract: We utilize a sample of 34.6 fb$^{-1}$, collected by the Belle II experiment at the SuperKEKB asymmetric energy $e^+e^-$ collider, to search for the $B^+ \to \phi K^+$, $B^+ \to \phi K^{*+}$, $B^0 \to \phi K^0_S$, and $B^0 \to \phi K^{*0}$ decays. Charmless hadronic $B$ decays represent an important part of the Belle II physics program, and are an ideal benchmark to test the detector capabilities in terms of tracking efficiency, charged particle identification, vertexing, and advanced analysis techniques. Each channel is observed with a significance that exceeds 5 standard deviations, and we obtain measurements of their branching ratios that are in good agreement with the world averages. For the $B \to \phi K^*$ modes, we also perform a measurement of the longitudinal polarization fraction $f_L$., Comment: 19 pages, 6 figures

Abstract: We report on the first calibration of the standard Belle II $B$-flavor tagger using the full data set collected at the $\Upsilon(4{\rm S})$ resonance in 2019 with the Belle II detector at the SuperKEKB collider, corresponding to 8.7 fb$^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity. The calibration is performed by reconstructing various hadronic charmed $B$-meson decays with flavor-specific final states. We use simulation to optimize our event selection criteria and to train the flavor tagging algorithm. We determine the tagging efficiency and the fraction of wrongly identified tag-side $B$~candidates from a measurement of the time-integrated $B^0-\overline{B}^0$ mixing probability. The total effective efficiency is measured to be $\varepsilon_{\rm eff} = \big(33.8 \pm 3.6(\text{stat}) \pm 1.6(\text{sys})\big)\%$, which is in good agreement with the predictions from simulation and comparable with the best one obtained by the Belle experiment. The results show a good understanding of the detector performance and offer a basis for future calibrations., Comment: 28 pages, 10 figures

Abstract: We report results from a study of the spin and parity of $\Xi_{c}(2970)^+$ using a $980~\mathrm{fb^{-1}}$ data sample collected by the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^{+}e^{-}$ collider. The decay angle distributions in the chain $\Xi_{c}(2970)^+ \to \Xi_c(2645)^{0}\pi^{+} \to \Xi_c^{+}\pi^{-}\pi^{+}$ are analyzed to determine the spin of this charmed-strange baryon. The angular distributions strongly favor the $\Xi_{c}(2970)^+$ spin $J =1/2$ over $3/2$ or $5/2$, under an assumption that the lowest partial wave dominates in the decay. We also measure the ratio of $\Xi_{c}(2970)^+$ decay branching fractions $R={\mathcal{B}[ \Xi_{c}(2970)^+ \to \Xi_c(2645)^{0}\pi^{+} ]} / { \mathcal{B}[ \Xi_{c}(2970)^+ \to \Xi_c^{\prime0}\pi^{+} ]} =1.67 \pm 0.29\mathrm{(stat.)}^{ +0.15}_{ -0.09}\mathrm{(syst.)} \pm 0.25\mathrm{(IS)}$, where the last uncertainty is due to possible isospin-symmetry-breaking effects. This $R$ value favors the spin-parity $J^P=1/2^+$ with the spin of the light-quark degrees of freedom $s_{l}=0$. This is the first determination of the spin and parity of a charmed-strange baryon., Comment: To be submitted to Physical Review Letters

Abstract: We present a search for the direct production of a light pseudoscalar $a$ decaying into two photons with the Belle II detector at the SuperKEKB collider. We search for the process ${e^+e^-\to\gamma a, a \to\gamma\gamma}$ in the mass range ${0.2} \,< m_a < {9.7}\,{\text{GeV/$c$}^2}$ using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $(445\pm 3)\,\text{pb}^{-1}$. Light pseudoscalars interacting predominantly with standard model gauge bosons (so-called axion-like particles or ALPs) are frequently postulated in extensions of the standard model. We find no evidence for ALPs and set 95% confidence level upper limits on the coupling strength $g_{a\gamma\gamma}$ of ALPs to photons at the level of $10^{-3}\,{\text{GeV}^{-1}}$. The limits are the most restrictive to date for $0.2\,<\,m_a\,<\,1\,{\text{GeV/$c$}^2}$., Comment: 9 pages, 5 figures + supplemental material. Published in Physical Review Letters

Abstract: We report the first evidence for $X(3872)$ production in two-photon interactions by tagging either the electron or the position in the final state, exploring the highly virtual photon region. The search is performed in $e^+e^- \rightarrow e^+e^-J/\psi\pi^+\pi^-$, using 825 fb$^{-1}$ of data collected by the Belle detector operated at the KEKB $e^+e^-$ collider. We observe three $X(3872)$ candidates with an expected background of $0.11\pm 0.10$ events, with a significance of 3.2$\sigma$. We obtain an estimated value for $\tilde{\Gamma}_{\gamma\gamma}{\cal B}(X(3872)\rightarrow J/\psi\pi^+\pi^-$) assuming the $Q^2$ dependence predicted by a $c\bar{c}$ meson model, where $-Q^2$ is the invariant mass-squared of the virtual photon. No $X(3915)\rightarrow J/\psi\pi^+\pi^-$ candidates are found., Comment: To be published in Physical Review Letters

Abstract: We report on the reconstruction of various charmless $B$ decays from electron-positron collisions at the energy corresponding to the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance collected with the Belle II detector at the SuperKEKB collider. We use simulation to devise optimized event selections and apply them to the full data set collected in 2019, corresponding to 8.7\,fb$^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity. We fit the difference between half of the collision energy and the $B$ candidate energy (in the $\Upsilon(4S)$ frame) for events restricted to a signal-rich range in beam-energy-constrained mass to search for charmless signals. Signal yields of approximately 80, 15, 20, 30, 90, and 160 decays are reconstructed for the channels $B^0 \to K^+\pi^-$, $B^0 \to \pi^+\pi^-$, $B^+ \to K^0_S(\to \pi^+\pi^-)\pi^+$, $B^+ \to K^+\pi^0(\to \gamma\gamma)$, $B^+ \to K^+K^-K^+$, and $B^+ \to K^+\pi^-\pi^+$, respectively. Yields and background contaminations are compatible with those expected from simulation and comparable with those obtained by the Belle experiment. The results show a good understanding of the detector performance and offer a reliable basis to assess projections for future reach., Comment: 17 pages, 7 figures, conference note approved for winter/spring 2020 conferences

Abstract: This document presents the measurement of $B^0$ meson lifetimes using the 2019 Belle II dataset that corresponds to an integrated luminosity of $8.7 \pm 0.2$ fb$^{-1}$. Each candidate is fully reconstructed with hadronic decay final states on the signal side, while the rest-of-event technique allows to infer the decay vertex position on the other (tag) side. $B^0$ lifetime is extracted from an unbinned maximum likelihood fit to the distribution of the difference between the signal side $B^0$ candidate and the tag side decay times. The measured lifetime is $\tau_{B^0} = 1.48 \pm 0.28 \pm 0.06 $ ps, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic., Comment: 16 pages, 5 figures

Abstract: We present an analysis of the exclusive $B^{+}\to\pi^{+}\pi^{-}\ell^{+}\nu_{\ell}$ decay, where $\ell$ represents an electron or a muon, with the assumption of charge-conjugation symmetry and lepton universality. The analysis uses the full $\Upsilon(4S)$ data sample collected by the Belle detector, corresponding to 711 fb$^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity. We select the events by fully reconstructing one $B$ meson in hadronic decay modes, subsequently determining the properties of the other $B$ meson. We extract the signal yields using a binned maximum-likelihood fit to the missing-mass squared distribution in bins of the invariant mass of the two pions or the momentum transfer squared. We measure a total branching fraction of ${{\cal B}(B^{+}\to \pi^{+}\pi^{-}\ell^{+}\nu_{\ell})= [22.7 ^{+1.9}_{-1.6} (\mathrm{stat}) \pm 3.5(\mathrm{syst}) ]\times 10^{-5}}$, where the uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively. This result is the first reported measurement of this decay., Comment: 23 pages, 19 figures

Abstract: We measure the branching fractions for the decays $\bar{B}^0 \to D^{*+} e^{-} \bar{\nu}_e$ and $\bar{B}^0 \to D^{*+} \mu^{-} \bar{\nu}_\mu$ using $8.70 \pm 0.09~{\rm fb}^{-1}$ of data collected by the Belle II experiment at the SuperKEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+ e^-$ collider. Candidate signal decays are reconstructed with the subsequent decays $D^{*+}\to D^0 \pi^+$ and $D^0\to K^-\pi^+$. We obtain the results ${\cal B}(\bar{B}^0 \to D^{*+} e^{-} \bar{\nu}_e)$ = $(4.55\pm0.14(\mathrm{stat})\pm0.35 (\mathrm{syst})) \%$ and ${\cal B}(\bar{B}^0 \to D^{*+} \mu^{-} \bar{\nu}_\mu)$ = $(4.84\pm 0.13(\mathrm{stat})\pm0.37(\mathrm{syst})) \%$, in agreement with the world averages. The measurements serve to validate the full chain of detector operation and calibration, data collection and processing, and production of physics results in the case of semileptonic $B$-meson decays., Comment: 17 pages, 2 figures, minor correction added

Abstract: We report searches for $B^0\to\rm{invisible}$ and $B^0\to\rm{invisible}+\gamma$ decays, where the energy of the photon is required to be larger than 0.5 GeV. These results are obtained from a $711\,{\rm fb}^{-1}$ data sample that contains $772 \times 10^6 B\bar{B}$ pairs and was collected near the $\Upsilon\,(4S)$ resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB $e^+ e^-$ collider. We observe no significant signal for either decay and set upper limits on their branching fractions at $90\%$ confidence level of $\mathcal{B}\,(B^0\to\rm{invisible}) < 7.8\times10^{-5}$ and $\mathcal{B}\,(B^0\to\rm{invisible}+\gamma) < 1.6\times10^{-5}$., Comment: submitted to Physical Review D

Abstract: We report the measurement of $e^+e^- \to D^+_sD^*_{s2}(2573)^-+c.c.$ via initial-state radiation using a data sample of an integrated luminosity of 921.9 fb$^{-1}$ collected with the Belle detector at the $\Upsilon(4S)$ and nearby. We find evidence for an enhancement with a 3.4$\sigma$ significance in the invariant mass of $D^+_sD^*_{s2}(2573)^- +c.c.$ The measured mass and width are $(4619.8^{+8.9}_{-8.0}({\rm stat.})\pm2.3({\rm syst.}))~{\rm MeV}/c^{2}$ and $(47.0^{+31.3}_{-14.8}({\rm stat.})\pm4.6({\rm syst.}))~{\rm MeV}$, respectively. The mass, width, and quantum numbers of this enhancement are consistent with the charmonium-like state at 4626 MeV/$c^2$ recently reported by Belle in $e^+e^-\to D^+_sD_{s1}(2536)^-+c.c.$ The product of the $e^+e^-\to D^+_sD^*_{s2}(2573)^-+c.c.$ cross section and the branching fraction of $D^*_{s2}(2573)^-\to{\bar D}^0K^-$ is measured from $D^+_sD^*_{s2}(2573)^-$ threshold to 5.6 GeV., Comment: 9 pages, 4 figures

Abstract: The first dedicated search for the $\eta_{c2}(1D)$ is carried out using the decays $B^+ \rightarrow \eta_{c2}(1D) K^+$, $B^0 \rightarrow \eta_{c2}(1D) K^0_S$, $B^0 \rightarrow \eta_{c2}(1D) \pi^- K^+$, and $B^+ \rightarrow \eta_{c2}(1D) \pi^+ K^0_S$ with $\eta_{c2}(1D) \to h_c \gamma$. No significant signal is found. For the $\eta_{c2}(1D)$ mass range between $3795$ and $3845\ \mathrm{MeV}/c^2$, the branching-fraction upper limits are determined to be $\mathcal{B}(B^+ \rightarrow \eta_{c2}(1D) K^+) \times \mathcal{B}(\eta_{c2}(1D) \to h_c \gamma) < 3.7 \times 10^{-5}$, $\mathcal{B}(B^0 \rightarrow \eta_{c2}(1D) K^0_S) \times \mathcal{B}(\eta_{c2}(1D) \to h_c \gamma) < 3.5 \times 10^{-5}$, $\mathcal{B}(B^0 \rightarrow \eta_{c2}(1D) \pi^- K^+) \times \mathcal{B}(\eta_{c2}(1D) \to h_c \gamma) < 1.0 \times 10^{-4}$, and $\mathcal{B}(B^+ \rightarrow \eta_{c2}(1D) \pi^+ K^0_S) \times \mathcal{B}(\eta_{c2}(1D) \to h_c \gamma) < 1.1 \times 10^{-4}$ at 90% C. L. The analysis is based on the 711 $\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ data sample collected on the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance by the Belle detector, which operated at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+ e^-$ collider., Comment: 23 pages, 8 figures

Abstract: We present the results of the first Dalitz plot analysis of the decay $D^{0}\to K^{-}\pi^{+}\eta$. The analysis is performed on a data set corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 953 $\rm{fb}^{-1}$ collected by the Belle detector at the asymmetric-energy $e^{+}e^{-}$ KEKB collider. The Dalitz plot is well described by a combination of the six resonant decay channels $\bar{K}^{*}(892)^0\eta$, $K^{-}a_0(980)^+$, $K^{-}a_2(1320)^+$, $\bar{K}^{*}(1410)^0\eta$, $K^{*}(1680)^-\pi^{+}$ and $K_2^{*}(1980)^-\pi^{+}$, together with $K\pi$ and $K\eta$ S-wave components. The decays $K^{*}(1680)^{-}\to K^{-}\eta$ and $K_{2}^{*}(1980)^{-}\to K^{-}\eta$ are observed for the first time. We measure ratio of the branching fractions, $\frac{\mathcal{B}(D^{0}\to K^{-}\pi^{+}\eta)}{\mathcal{B}(D^{0}\to K^{-}\pi^{+})}=0.500\pm0.002{\rm(stat)}\pm0.020{\rm(syst)}\pm0.003{\rm (\mathcal{B}_{PDG})}$. Using the Dalitz fit result, the ratio $\frac{\mathcal{B}(K^{*}(1680)\to K\eta)}{\mathcal{B}(K^{*}(1680)\to K\pi)}$ is measured to be $0.11\pm0.02{\rm(stat)}^{+0.06}_{-0.04}{\rm(syst)}\pm0.04{\rm(\mathcal{B}_{\text{PDG}})}$; this is much lower than the theoretical expectations ($\approx1$) made under the assumption that $K^{*}(1680)$ is a pure $1^{3}D_1$ state. The product branching fraction $\mathcal{B}(D^0\to [K_2^{*}(1980)^-\to K^{-}\eta]\pi^{+})=(2.2^{+1.7}_{-1.9})\times10^{-4}$ is determined. In addition, the $\pi\eta^{\prime}$ contribution to the $a_0(980)^{\pm}$ resonance shape is confirmed with 10.1$\sigma$ statistical significance using the three-channel Flatt\'{e} model. We also measure $\mathcal{B}(D^0\to\bar{K}^{*}(892)^0\eta)=(1.41^{+0.13}_{-0.12})\%$. This is consistent with, and more precise than, the current world average $(1.02\pm0.30)\%$, deviates with a significance of more than $3\sigma$ from the theoretical predictions of (0.51-0.92)%., Comment: 11 pages, 2 figures

Abstract: We report new measurements of the production cross sections of pairs of charged pions and kaons as a function of their fractional energies using various fractional-energy definitions. Two different fractional-energy definitions were used and compared to the conventional fractional-energy definition reported previously. The new variables aim at either identifying dihadron cross sections in terms of single-hadron fragmentation functions, or to provide a means of characterizing the transverse momentum created in the fragmentation process. The results were obtained applying the updated initial-state radiation correction used in other recent Belle publications on light-hadron production cross sections. In addition, production cross sections of single charged pions, kaons, and protons were also updated using this initial-state radiation correction. The cross sections are obtained from a $558\,{\rm fb}^{-1}$ data sample collected at the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+ e^-$ collider., Comment: 12 pages, 9 figures, submitted to PRD

Abstract: Theories beyond the standard model often predict the existence of an additional neutral boson, the $Z^{\prime}$. Using data collected by the Belle II experiment during 2018 at the SuperKEKB collider, we perform the first searches for the invisible decay of a $Z^{\prime}$ in the process $e^+ e^- \to \mu^+ \mu^- Z^{\prime}$ and of a lepton-flavor-violating $Z^{\prime}$ in $e^+ e^- \to e^{\pm} \mu^{\mp} Z^{\prime}$. We do not find any excess of events and set 90\% credibility level upper limits on the cross sections of these processes. We translate the former, in the framework of an $L_{\mu}-L_{\tau}$ theory, into upper limits on the $Z^{\prime}$ coupling constant at the level of $5 \times 10^{-2}$ -- $1$ $M_{Z^\prime}\leq 6$ GeV/$c^2$., Comment: 9 pages, 5 figures + supplemental materials.

Abstract: We report the first measurement of the charm-mixing parameter $y_{CP}$ in $D^{0}$ decays to the $CP$-odd final state $K^{0}_{S}\omega$. The study uses the full Belle $e^{+}e^-$ annihilation data sample of $976\rm~ fb^{-1}$ taken at or near the $\Upsilon(4S)$ centre-of-mass energy. We find $y_{CP} = (0.96 \pm 0.91 \pm 0.61 {}^{+0.17}_{-0.00})\%$, where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second is systematic due to event selection and background, and the last is due to possible presence of $CP$-even decays in the data sample., Comment: 8 pages, 2 figures
