Abstract: Crucial inputs for a variety of $CP$-violation studies can be determined through the analysis of pairs of quantum-entangled neutral $D$ mesons, which are produced in the decay of the $\psi(3770)$ resonance. The relative strong-phase parameters between $D^0$ and $\bar{D}^0$ in the decays $D^0\rightarrow K^0_{S,L}\pi^+\pi^-$ are studied using 2.93~${\rm fb}^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ annihilation data delivered by the BEPCII collider and collected by the BESIII detector at a center-of-mass energy of 3.773 GeV. Results are presented in regions of the phase space of the decay. These are the most precise measurements to date of the strong-phase parameters in $D \to K_{S,L}^0\pi^+\pi^-$ decays. Using these parameters, the associated uncertainty on the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa angle $\gamma/\phi_3$ is expected to be between $0.7^\circ$ and $1.2^\circ$, for an analysis using the decay $B^{\pm}\rightarrow DK^{\pm}$, $D\rightarrow K^0_S\pi^+\pi^-$, where $D$ represents a superposition of $D^0$ and $\bar{D^0}$ states. This is a factor of three smaller than that achievable with previous measurements. Furthermore, these results provide valuable input for charm-mixing studies, other measurements of $CP$ violation, and the measurement of strong-phase parameters for other $D$-decay modes., Comment: 34 pages, 10 figures

Abstract: We report the most precise measurements to date of the strong-phase parameters between $D^0$ and $\bar{D}^0$ decays to $K^0_{S,L}\pi^+\pi^-$ using a sample of 2.93 fb$^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ annihilation data collected at a center-of-mass energy of 3.773 GeV with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider. Our results provide the key inputs for a binned model-independent determination of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa angle $\gamma/\phi_3$ with $B$ decays. Using our results, the decay model sensitivity to the $\gamma/\phi_3$ measurement is expected to be between 0.7$^{\circ}$ and 1.2$^{\circ}$, approximately a factor of three smaller than that achievable with previous measurements. The improved precision of this work ensures that measurements of $\gamma/\phi_3$ will not be limited by knowledge of strong phases for the next decade. Furthermore, our results provide critical input for other flavor-physics investigations, including charm mixing, other measurements of $CP$ violation, and the measurement of strong-phase parameters for other $D$-decay modes., Comment: 7 pages, 3 figures

Abstract: The SNO+ experiment collected data as a low-threshold water Cherenkov detector from September 2017 to July 2019. Measurements of the 2.2-MeV $\gamma$ produced by neutron capture on hydrogen have been made using an Am-Be calibration source, for which a large fraction of emitted neutrons are produced simultaneously with a 4.4-MeV $\gamma$. Analysis of the delayed coincidence between the 4.4-MeV $\gamma$ and the 2.2-MeV capture $\gamma$ revealed a neutron detection efficiency that is centered around 50% and varies at the level of 1% across the inner region of the detector, which to our knowledge is the highest efficiency achieved among pure water Cherenkov detectors. In addition, the neutron capture time constant was measured and converted to a thermal neutron-proton capture cross section of $336.3^{+1.2}_{-1.5}$ mb.

Abstract: We report on a comparison between the theoretically predicted and experimentally measured spectra of the first-forbidden non-unique $\beta$-decay transition $^{137}\textrm{Xe}(7/2^-)\to\,^{137}\textrm{Cs}(7/2^+)$. The experimental data were acquired by the EXO-200 experiment during a deployment of an AmBe neutron source. The ultra-low background environment of EXO-200, together with dedicated source deployment and analysis procedures, allowed for collection of a pure sample of the decays, with an estimated signal-to-background ratio of more than 99-to-1 in the energy range from 1075 to 4175 keV. In addition to providing a rare and accurate measurement of the first-forbidden non-unique $\beta$-decay shape, this work constitutes a novel test of the calculated electron spectral shapes in the context of the reactor antineutrino anomaly and spectral bump., Comment: Version as accepted by PRL

Abstract: The beta decay of tritium in the form of molecular TT is the basis of sensitive experiments to measure neutrino mass. The final-state electronic, vibrational, and rotational excitations modify the beta spectrum significantly, and are obtained from theory. We report measurements of the branching ratios to specific ionization states for the isotopolog HT. Two earlier, concordant measurements gave branching ratios of HT to the bound HHe$^+$ ion of 89.5% and 93.2%, in sharp disagreement with the theoretical prediction of 55-57%, raising concerns about the theory's reliability in neutrino mass experiments. Our result, 56.5(6)%, is compatible with the theoretical expectation and disagrees strongly with the previous measurements., Comment: 6 pages, 4 figures (Updated with minor typographical fixes)

Abstract: The measurements of particle multiplicity distributions have generated considerable interest in understanding the fluctuations of conserved quantum numbers in the Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) hadronization regime, in particular near a possible critical point and near the chemical freeze-out. We report the measurement of efficiency and centrality bin width corrected cumulant ratios ($C_{2}/C_{1}$, $C_{3}/C_{2}$) of net-$\Lambda$ distributions, in the context of both strangeness and baryon number conservation, as a function of collision energy, centrality and rapidity. The results are for Au + Au collisions at five beam energies ($\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 19.6, 27, 39, 62.4 and 200 GeV) recorded with the Solenoidal Tracker at RHIC (STAR). We compare our results to the Poisson and negative binomial (NBD) expectations, as well as to Ultra-relativistic Quantum Molecular Dynamics (UrQMD) and Hadron Resonance Gas (HRG) model predictions. Both NBD and Poisson baselines agree with data within the statistical and systematic uncertainties. The ratios of the measured cumulants show no features of critical fluctuations. The chemical freeze-out temperatures extracted from a recent HRG calculation, which was successfully used to describe the net-proton, net-kaon and net-charge data, indicate $\Lambda$ freeze-out conditions similar to those of kaons. However, large deviations are found when comparing to temperatures obtained from net-proton fluctuations. The net-$\Lambda$ cumulants show a weak, but finite, dependence on the rapidity coverage in the acceptance of the detector, which can be attributed to quantum number conservation., Comment: 12 pages, 9 figures, 3 tables, submitted to Phys.Rev.C

Abstract: Non-monotonic variation with collision energy ($\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}}$) of the moments of the net-baryon number distribution in heavy-ion collisions, related to the correlation length and the susceptibilities of the system, is suggested as a signature for the Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) critical point. We report the first evidence of a non-monotonic variation in kurtosis times variance of the net-proton number (proxy for net-baryon number) distribution as a function of \rootsnn with 3.1$\sigma$ significance, for head-on (central) gold-on-gold (Au+Au) collisions measured using the STAR detector at RHIC. Data in non-central Au+Au collisions and models of heavy-ion collisions without a critical point show a monotonic variation as a function of $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}}$., Comment: 12 Pages, 9 Figures and 5 Tables (published version)

Abstract: Subseasonal-to-seasonal (S2S) prediction, especially the prediction of extreme hydroclimate events such as droughts and floods, is not only scientifically challenging, but also has substantial societal impacts. Motivated by preliminary studies, the Global Energy and Water Exchanges (GEWEX)/Global Atmospheric System Study (GASS) has launched a new initiative called "Impact of Initialized Land Surface Temperature and Snowpack on Subseasonal to Seasonal Prediction"(LS4P) as the first international grass-roots effort to introduce spring land surface temperature (LST)/subsurface temperature (SUBT) anomalies over high mountain areas as a crucial factor that can lead to significant improvement in precipitation prediction through the remote effects of land-atmosphere interactions. LS4P focuses on process understanding and predictability, and hence it is different from, and complements, other international projects that focus on the operational S2S prediction. More than 40 groups worldwide have participated in this effort, including 21 Earth system models, 9 regional climate models, and 7 data groups. This paper provides an overview of the history and objectives of LS4P, provides the first-phase experimental protocol (LS4P-I) which focuses on the remote effect of the Tibetan Plateau, discusses the LST/SUBT initialization, and presents the preliminary results. Multi-model ensemble experiments and analyses of observational data have revealed that the hydroclimatic effect of the spring LST on the Tibetan Plateau is not limited to the Yangtze River basin but may have a significant large-scale impact on summer precipitation beyond East Asia and its S2S prediction. Preliminary studies and analysis have also shown that LS4P models are unable to preserve the initialized LST anomalies in producing the observed anomalies largely for two main reasons: (i) inadequacies in the land models arising from total soil depths which are too shallow and the use of simplified parameterizations, which both tend to limit the soil memory; (ii) reanalysis data, which are used for initial conditions, have large discrepancies from the observed mean state and anomalies of LST over the Tibetan Plateau. Innovative approaches have been developed to largely overcome these problems.

Abstract: Using a sample of $1.31\times10^{9} ~J/\psi$ events collected with the BESIII detector, we perform a study of $J/\psi\to\gamma K\bar{K}\eta'$. The $X(2370)$ is observed in the $K\bar{K}\eta'$ invariant-mass distribution with a statistical significance of 8.3$\sigma$. Its resonance parameters are measured to be $M = 2341.6 \pm 6.5\text{(stat.)} \pm 5.7\text{(syst.)}$~MeV/$c^{2}$ and $\Gamma = 117 \pm 10 \text{(stat.)} \pm 8 \text{(syst.)}$~MeV. The product branching fractions for $J/\psi\to \gamma X(2370), X(2370) \to K^{+} K^{-}\eta'$ and $J/\psi\to \gamma X(2370), X(2370) \to K_{S}^{0} K_{S}^{0}\eta'$ are determined to be $(1.79 \pm 0.23 \text{(stat.)} \pm 0.65 \text{(syst.)}) \times 10^{-5}$ and $(1.18 \pm 0.32\ text{(stat.)} \pm 0.39 \text{(syst.)}) \times 10^{-5}$, respectively. No evident signal for the $X(2120)$ is observed in the $K\bar{K}\eta'$ invariant-mass distribution. The upper limits for the product branching fractions of $\mathcal{B}(J/\psi \to \gamma X(2120)\to\gamma K^{+} K^{-} \eta')$ and $\mathcal{B}(J/\psi\to\gamma X(2120)\to\gamma K_{S}^{0} K_{S}^{0} \eta')$ are determined to be $1.49\times10^{-5}$ and $6.38\times10^{-6}$ at the 90% confidence level, respectively.

Abstract: The cross section of the process $e^+e^-\to\pi^+\pi^-\pi^0$ is measured with a precision of 1.6% to 25% in the energy range between $0.7$ and 3.0 GeV using the Initial State Radiation method. A data set with an integrated luminosity of $2.93$fb$^{-1}$ taken at the center-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s}=3.773$GeV with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider is used. The product branching fractions for $\omega$, $\phi$, $\omega(1420)$, and $\omega(1650)$ are measured to be $\mathcal{B}(\omega\to e^+e^-) \times \mathcal{B}(\omega \to \pi^+\pi^-\pi^0)=(6.94\pm0.08\pm0.16) \times 10^{-5}$, $\mathcal{B}(\phi\to e^+e^-) \times \mathcal{B}(\phi\to\pi^+\pi^-\pi^0) = (4.20\pm0.08\pm0.19) \times 10^{-5}$, $\mathcal{B}(\omega(1420)\to e^+e^-) \times \mathcal{B}(\omega(1420) \to \pi^+\pi^-\pi^0) = (0.84\pm0.09\pm0.09) \times 10^{-6}$, and $\mathcal{B}(\omega(1650) \to e^+e^) \times \mathcal{B}(\omega(1650)\to \pi^+\pi^-\pi^0) = (1.14\pm0.15\pm0.15)\times10^{-6}$, respectively. The branching fraction $\mathcal{B}(J/\psi\to \pi^+\pi^-\pi^0)$ is measured to be $(2.188 \pm 0.024 \pm 0.024 \pm0.040 (\Gamma_{ee}^{J/\psi}))\%$, where $\Gamma_{ee}^{J/\psi}$ is the dileptonic width of $J/\psi$. The first errors are of statistical, the second and third ones of systematic nature.

Abstract: Using a sample of $(448.1\pm2.9)\times10^6$ $\psi(3686)$ events collected with the BESIII detector, we perform the first partial wave analysis of $\psi(3686)\rightarrow K^+K^-\eta$. In addition to the well established states, $\phi(1020)$, $\phi(1680)$, and $K_3^*(1780)$, contributions from $X(1750)$, $\rho(2150)$, $\rho_3(2250)$, and $K^*_2(1980)$ are also observed. The $X(1750)$ state is determined to be a $1^{--}$ resonance. The simultaneous observation of the $\phi(1680)$ and $X(1750)$ indicates that the $X(1750)$, with previous observations in photoproduction, is distinct from the $\phi(1680)$. The masses, widths, branching fractions of $\psi(3686)\rightarrow K^+K^-\eta$ and the intermediate resonances are also measured., Comment: 12 pages, 11 figures, 5 tables, published in PRD

Abstract: Particle production sensitive to non-factorizable and non-perturbative processes that contribute to the underlying event associated with a high transverse momentum ($p_{T}$) jet in proton+proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}$=200 GeV is studied with the STAR detector. Each event is divided into three regions based on the azimuthal angle with respect to the highest-$p_{T}$ jet direction: in the leading jet direction ("Toward"), opposite to the leading jet ("Away"), and perpendicular to the leading jet ("Transverse"). In the Transverse region, the average charged particle density is found to be between 0.4 and 0.6 and the mean transverse momentum, $\langle p_{T}\rangle$, between 0.5-0.7 GeV/$c$ for particles with $p_{T}$$>$0.2 GeV/$c$ at mid-pseudorapidity ($|\eta|$$<$1) and jet $p_{T}$$>$15 GeV/$c$. Both average particle density and $\langle p_{T}\rangle$ depend weakly on the leading jet $p_{T}$. Closer inspection of the Transverse region hints that contributions to the underlying event from initial- and final-state radiation are significantly smaller in these collisions than at the higher energies, up to 13 TeV, recorded at the LHC. Underlying event measurements associated with a high-$p_{T}$ jet will contribute to our understanding of QCD processes at hard and soft scales at RHIC energies, as well as provide constraints to modeling of underlying event dynamics.

Abstract: There has recently been a dramatic renewal of interest in the subjects of hadron spectroscopy and charm physics. This renaissance has been driven in part by the discovery of a plethora of charmonium-like $XYZ$ states at BESIII and $B$ factories, and the observation of an intriguing proton-antiproton threshold enhancement and the possibly related $X(1835)$ meson state at BESIII, as well as the threshold measurements of charm mesons and charm baryons. We present a detailed survey of the important topics in tau-charm physics and hadron physics that can be further explored at BESIII over the remaining lifetime of BEPCII operation. This survey will help in the optimization of the data-taking plan over the coming years, and provides physics motivation for the possible upgrade of BEPCII to higher luminosity., Comment: 210 pages; Published in CPC

Abstract: We present a catalog of 4195 optically confirmed Sunyaev–Zel’dovich (SZ) selected galaxy clusters detected with signal-to-noise ratio >4 in 13,211 deg2 of sky surveyed by the Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT). Cluster candidates were selected by applying a multifrequency matched filter to 98 and 150 GHz maps constructed from ACT observations obtained from 2008 to 2018 and confirmed using deep, wide-area optical surveys. The clusters span the redshift range 0.04 < z < 1.91 (median z = 0.52). The catalog contains 222 z > 1 clusters, and a total of 868 systems are new discoveries. Assuming an SZ signal versus mass-scaling relation calibrated from X-ray observations, the sample has a 90% completeness mass limit of M500c > 3.8 × 1014 Me, evaluated at z = 0.5, for clusters detected at signal-to-noise ratio >5 in maps filtered at an angular scale of 2 4. The survey has a large overlap with deep optical weak-lensing surveys that are being used to calibrate the SZ signal mass-scaling relation, such as the Dark Energy Survey (4566 deg2), the Hyper Suprime-Cam Subaru Strategic Program (469 deg2), and the Kilo Degree Survey (825 deg2). We highlight some noteworthy objects in the sample, including potentially projected systems, clusters with strong lensing features, clusters with active central galaxies or star formation, and systems of multiple clusters that may be physically associated. The cluster catalog will be a useful resource for future cosmological analyses and studying the evolution of the intracluster medium and galaxies in massive clusters over the past 10 Gyr.

Markers for early detection and progression could improve disease outcomes. This study aims to reveal the potential pathogenesis of ccRCC by integrative bioinformatics analysis and to further develop new therapeutic strategies.Patients and Methods: RNA-seq data of 530 ccRCC cases in TCGA were downloaded, and a comprehensive analysis was carried out using bioinformatics tools. Another 14 tissue samples were included to verify the expression of selected lncRNAs by qRT-PCR. DGIdb database was used to screen out potential drugs, and molecular docking was used to explore the interaction and mechanism between candidate drugs and targets.Results: A total of 58 differentially expressed lncRNAs (DElncRNAs) and 660 differentially expressed mRNAs (DEmRNAs) were identified in ccRCC. LINC02038, FAM242C, LINC01762, and PVT1 were identified as the optimal diagnostic lncRNAs, of which PVT1 was significantly correlated with the survival rate of ccRCC. GO analysis of cell components showed that DEmRNAs co-expressed with 4 DElncRNAs were mainly distributed in the extracellular area and the plasma membrane, involved in the transport of metal ions, the transport of proteins across membranes, and the binding of immunoglobulins. Immune infiltration analysis showed that MDSC was the most correlated immune cells with PVT1 and key mRNA SIGLEC8. Validation analysis showed that GABRD, SIGLEC8 and CDKN2A were significantly overexpressed, while ESRRB, ELF5 and UMOD were significantly down-regulated, which was consistent with the expression in our analysis. Furthermore, 84 potential drugs were screened by 6 key mRNAs, of which ABEMACICLIB and RIBOCICLIB were selected for molecular docking with CDKN2A, with stable binding affinity.Conclusion: In summary, 4 key lncRNAs and key mRNAs of ccRCC were identified by integrative bioinformatics analysis. Potential drugs were screened for the treatment of ccRCC, providing a new perspective for disease diagnosis and treatment.Keywords: clear cell renal cell carcinoma, bioinformatics analysis, lncRNA, mRNA, drugs prediction, molecular docking

In Africa, due to resource shortages and other issues, postoperative pain is substantially more common when compared to developed countries. Severe postoperative pain has many negative effects, including possibly death, which can burden both individuals and society as a whole. Therefore, effectively controlling postoperative pain is becoming increasingly important. To enhance the effectiveness of future pain management, a thorough analysis of the current reasons for inadequate postoperative pain management is necessary. In this article, the present situations of occurring postoperative pain, children’s postoperative pain, and pain management in Africa are reviewed, based on relevant and recent literature. In particular, the reasons for inadequate postoperative pain management in Africa are detailed in this article from five perspectives: the inadequate assessment of postoperative pain, the knowledge gap among medical professionals, the patients’ misconceptions, the scarcity of resources, and the lack of medications. Additionally, we offer appropriate solutions following various factors.Keywords: Africa, postoperative pain, pain management, analgesia, pain in children, pain assessment

The nanoparticles (NPs) can target the tumor cells, realize the multimodal imaging, and provide sonodynamic-gene therapy for PTC.Methods: P@IP-miRNA NPs were synthesized through double emulsification method, and miRNA338-3p was attached to the surface of the NPs by electrostatic adsorption. The characterization of NPs was detected to screen out qualified nanoparticles. In vitro, laser confocal microscopy and flow cytometry were used to detect the targeting and subcellular localization of NPs. Western blot, qRT-PCR, and immunofluorescence were used to detect the ability to transfect miRNA. CCK8 kit, laser confocal microscopy and flow cytometry were used to detect the inhibition on TPC-1 cells. In vivo experiments were performed based on tumor-bearing nude mice. The efficacy of combined treatment by NPs was comprehensively evaluated, and the multimodal imaging ability of NPs in vivo and in vitro was detected.Results: P@IP-miRNA NPs were successfully synthesized which have spherical shape, uniform size, good dispersion and positive potential. The encapsulation rate of IR780 was (82.58± 3.92) %, the drug loading rate was (6.60± 0.32) %, and the adsorption capacity of miRNA338-3p was 41.78 μg/mg. NPs have excellent tumor targeting ability, miRNA transfection ability, ROS production ability and multimodal imaging ability in vivo and in vitro. The antitumor effect of combined treatment group was the best, and the efficacy was better than that of single factor treatment group, and the difference was statistically significant.Conclusion: P@IP-miRNA NPs can realize multimodal imaging and sonodynamic-gene therapy, providing a new idea for accurate diagnosis and treatment of PTC.Keywords: papillary thyroid carcinoma, miRNA338-3P, sonodynamic therapy, nanoparticles, multimodal imaging

Anti-T. gondii IgG and cytokines were measured using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit and a multiplex assay platform. Endpoints were overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS). Survival and multiplicative interaction analyses were performed using multivariate Cox regression models.Results: According to the cutoff value of optical density (OD=0.111), 900 (80.29%) and 221 (19.71%) patients were divided into two groups: low or high anti-T. gondii IgG. Compared to patients with a low anti-T. gondii IgG level, the adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) of OS and PFS for patients with high anti-T. gondii IgG levels were 0.60 (95% confidence interval (CI): 0.37– 0.99) and 0.67 (0.46– 0.98), respectively. These associations were profound among patients with a high cytokine score (HR=0.29, 95% CI: 0.10– 0.82 for OS; HR=0.30, 95% CI: 0.13– 0.69 for PFS), accompanied by a significant interaction between the level of anti-T. gondii IgG and the cytokine score (Pinteraction=0.019 for PFS); interleukin-17 (IL-17) and interleukin-9 (IL-9) were the main contributors to the interaction.Conclusion: Anti-T. gondii IgG was found to be beneficial to breast cancer survival, especially in women with systematic inflammation and high IL-17 or IL-9 levels, suggesting the potential of T. gondii as a prognostic marker and a novel immunotherapy approach for cancer patients.Keywords: Toxoplasma gondii, breast cancer, prognosis, cytokines

However, the clinical indicators that can predict cervical cerclage remain limited. This study aimed to explore whether dynamically inflammatory markers are valuable biomarkers for the prognosis of cervical cerclage.Methods: This study included 328 participants. Inflammatory markers were calculated using maternal peripheral blood before and after the cervical cerclage procedure. The Chi-square test, linear regression, and logistic regression were performed to evaluate the dynamic change of inflammatory markers with the prognosis of cervical cerclage. And the optimal cut-off values of inflammatory markers were calculated.Results: Totally 328 pregnant women were analyzed in the study. 223 (67.99%) participants obtained successful cervical cerclage. This study revealed that the maternal age, the baseline BMI (cm2/kg), the times of gravida, the rate of recurrent abortion, the PPROM, cervical length shorter (< 1.5cm), cervical dilation (≥ 2cm), the bulging membrane, the Pre-SII, the Pre-SIRI, the Post-SII, the Post-SIRI, and the ΔSII were significantly associated with outcomes after cervical cerclage (all P< 0.05). Pre-SII, Pre-SIRI, Post-SII, Post-SIRI, and ΔSII levels were mainly related to maternal-neonatal outcomes. Furthermore, the results demonstrated that the ΔSII level had the highest OR (OR=14.560; 95% CI (4.461– 47.518)). In addition, we revealed that Post-SII and ΔSII levels had the highest AUC (0.845/0.840) and relatively higher sensitivity/specificity (68.57/92.83% and 71.43/90.58%) and PPV/ NPV (81.82/86.25% and 78.13/87.07%) compared with other indicators.Conclusion: This study suggested that the dynamic change of SII level and SIRI level are important biochemical markers to predict the prognosis of cervical cerclage and maternal-neonatal prognosis, especially the Post-SII and ΔSII levels. They can help to determine candidates for cervical cerclage before surgical procedure and enhance postoperative surveillance.Keywords: cervical cerclage, maternal-neonatal, outcome, inflammatory markers, peripheral blood

P-element-induced wimpy testis (PIWI)-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) are novel small silencing RNAs that have been identified to function in cancer-related signalling pathways. However, studies on the presence of piRNAs in serum exosomes from HCC patients and their diagnostic values in HCC are not well reported. Our aim is to validate serum exosome-derived piRNAs as the valuable component of liquid biopsy for diagnosing HCC.Methods: We used small RNA (sRNA) sequencing to profile piRNAs from serum exosomes and describe the base distribution characteristics of serum exosome-derived piRNAs. Serum exosomes from 125 HCC patients and 44 nontumor donors were included in this study.Results: We found that piRNAs were components of serum exosomes from HCC patients. A total of 253 differentially expressed serum exosome-derived piRNAs were screened from HCC compared with the piRNAs from nontumor donors. Serum exosome-derived piRNAs from HCC displayed a distinctive base distribution. To further confirm the potential diagnostic value of serum exosome-derived piRNAs in HCC, we detected the levels of the top 5 upregulated piRNAs in our Chinese cohort. The training set and validation set both showed that all 5 piRNAs were dramatically increased in the serum exosomes from HCC compared with the piRNAs from non-tumour donors. The piRNAs could strongly identify HCC patients from non-tumour donors according to the area under the receiver operating characteristic (AUROC) model. Additionally, the piRNAs could also present significant values for the diagnosis of HCC with low tumour burden.Conclusion: piRNAs enriched the components of serum exosomes from HCC and could serve as promising biomarkers for HCC diagnosis.Keywords: biomarker, exosome, sRNA-seq, HCC, piRNA

Abstract: Open heavy flavor hadrons provide unique probes of the medium produced in ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions. Due to their increased mass relative to light-flavor hadrons, long lifetime, and early production in hard-scattering interactions, they provide access to the full evolution of the partonic medium formed in heavy-ion collisions. This paper reports two-dimensional (2D) angular correlations between neutral $D$-mesons and unidentified charged particles produced in minimum-bias Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}}$ = 200 GeV. $D^0$ and $\bar{D}^0$ mesons are reconstructed via their weak decay to $K^{\mp} \pi^{\pm}$ using the Heavy Flavor Tracker (HFT) in the Solenoidal Tracker at RHIC (STAR) experiment. Correlations on relative pseudorapidity and azimuth $(\Delta\eta,\Delta\phi)$ are presented for peripheral, mid-central and central collisions with $D^0$ transverse momentum from 2 to 10 GeV/$c$. Attention is focused on the 2D peaked correlation structure near the triggered $D^0$-meson, the {\em near-side} (NS) peak, which serves as a proxy for a charm-quark containing jet. The correlated NS yield of charged particles per $D^0$-meson and the 2D widths of the NS peak increase significantly from peripheral to central collisions. These results are compared with similar correlations using unidentified charged particles, consisting primarily of light-flavor hadrons, at similar trigger particle momenta. Similar per-trigger yields and widths of the NS correlation peak are observed. The present results provide additional evidence that $D^0$-mesons undergo significant interactions with the medium formed in heavy-ion collision and show, for the first time, significant centrality evolution of the NS 2D peak in the correlations of particles associated with a heavy-flavor hadron produced in these collisions.

Abstract: Measurements of electron drift properties in liquid and gaseous xenon are reported. The electrons are generated by the photoelectric effect in a semi-transparent gold photocathode driven in transmission mode with a pulsed ultraviolet laser. The charges drift and diffuse in a small chamber at various electric fields and a fixed drift distance of 2.0 cm. At an electric field of 0.5 kV/cm, the measured drift velocities and corresponding temperature coefficients respectively are $1.97 \pm 0.04$ mm/$\mu$s and $(-0.69\pm0.05)$\%/K for liquid xenon, and $1.42 \pm 0.03$ mm/$\mu$s and $(+0.11\pm0.01)$\%/K for gaseous xenon at 1.5 bar. In addition, we measure longitudinal diffusion coefficients of $25.7 \pm 4.6$ cm$^2$/s and $149 \pm 23$ cm$^2$/s, for liquid and gas, respectively. The quantum efficiency of the gold photocathode is studied at the photon energy of 4.73 eV in liquid and gaseous xenon, and vacuum. These charge transport properties and the behavior of photocathodes in a xenon environment are important in designing and calibrating future large scale noble liquid detectors.

280. Searching for further evidence for cloud-cloud collisions in L1188

Abstract: In order to search for further observational evidence of cloud-cloud collisions in one of the promising candidates, L1188, we carried out observations of multiple molecular lines toward the intersection region of the two nearly orthogonal filamentary molecular clouds in L1188. Based on these observations, we find two parallel filamentary structures, both of which have at least two velocity components being connected with broad bridging features. We also found a spatially complementary distribution between the two molecular clouds, as well as enhanced $^{13}$CO emission and $^{12}$CO self-absorption toward their abutting regions. At the most blueshifted velocities, we unveil a 1~pc-long arc ubiquitously showing $^{12}$CO line wings. We discover two 22 GHz water masers, which are the first maser detections in L1188. An analysis of line ratios at a linear resolution of 0.2 pc suggests that L1188 is characterised by kinetic temperatures of 13--23~K and H$_{2}$ number densities of 10$^{3}$--10$^{3.6}$ cm$^{-3}$. On the basis of previous theoretical predictions and simulations, we suggest that these observational features can be naturally explained by the scenario of a cloud-cloud collision in L1188, although an additional contribution of stellar feedback from low-mass young stellar objects cannot be ruled out., Comment: 17 pages, 15 figures, 2 tables, accepted for publication in A&A; for the draft showing figures with full resolution, see http://gongyan2444.github.io/pdf/l1188.pdf

Abstract: We present VLT/SINFONI observations of 35 quasars at 2.1 < z < 3.2, the majority of which were selected from the Clusters Around Radio-Loud AGN (CARLA) survey. CARLA quasars have large CIV-based black hole (BH) masses (M(BH) > 10^9 Msun) and powerful radio emission (P(500MHz) > 27.5 W/Hz). We estimate Ha-based M(BH), finding a scatter of 0.35 dex compared to CIV. We evaluate several recipes for correcting CIV-based masses, which reduce the scatter to 0.24 dex. The radio power of the radio-loud quasars is at most weakly correlated with the interconnected quantities Ha-width, L(5100A) and M(BH), suggesting that it is governed by different physical processes. However, we do find a strong inverse correlation between CIV blueshift and radio power linked to higher Eddington ratios and L(5100A). Under standard assumptions, the BH growth time is longer than the cosmic age for many CARLA quasars, suggesting that they must have experienced more efficient growth in the past. If these BHs were growing from seeds since the epoch of reionization, it is possible that they grew at the Eddington limit like the quasars at z ~ 6-7, and then continued to grow at the reduced rates observed until z ~ 2-3. Finally, we study the relation between M(BH) and environment, finding a weak positive correlation between M(BH) and galaxy density measured by CARLA., Comment: MNRAS, accepted (28 pages, 22 figures)

Abstract: The SU(3)-flavor violating decay $J/\psi\to\Xi(1530)^{-}\bar\Xi^{+}+c.c.$ is studied using $(1310.6\pm7.0)\times 10^{6} ~J/\psi$ events collected with the BESIII detector at BEPCII and the branching fraction is measured to be ${\cal{B}}(J/\psi\to\Xi(1530)^{-}\bar\Xi^{+}+c.c.)=(3.17\pm0.02_{\rm stat.}\pm0.08_{\rm syst.})\times10^{-4}$. This is consistent with previous measurements with an improved precision. The angular parameter for this decay is measured for the first time and is found to be $\alpha=-0.21\pm0.04_{\rm stat.}\pm0.06_{\rm syst.}$. In addition, we report evidence for the radiative decay $\Xi(1530)^{-}\to\gamma\Xi^- $ with a significance of 3.9$\sigma$, including the systematic uncertainties. The 90\% confidence level upper limit on the branching fraction is determined to be $\mathcal{B}(\Xi(1530)^{-}\to\gamma\Xi^- )\leq3.7$\%., Comment: 10 pages, 7 figures

Abstract: Using a data sample of $(448.1\pm2.9)\times10^{6}$ $\psi(3686)$ decays collected by the BESIII detector at the Beijing Electron Positron Collider (BEPCII), we observe the decays $\chi_{cJ}\to \phi\phi\eta~(J=0,~1,~2)$, where the $\chi_{cJ}$ are produced via the radiative processes $\psi(3686)\to\gamma\chi_{cJ}$. The branching fractions are measured to be $\mathcal B(\chi_{c0}\to\phi\phi\eta)=(8.41\pm0.74\pm0.62)\times10^{-4}$, $\mathcal B(\chi_{c1}\to\phi\phi\eta)=(2.96\pm0.43\pm0.22)\times 10^{-4}$, and $\mathcal B(\chi_{c2} \to \phi\phi\eta)=(5.33\pm0.52\pm0.39) \times 10^{-4}$, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second are systematic. We also search for intermediate states in the $\phi\phi$ or $\eta\phi$ combinations, but no significant structure is seen due to the limited statistics., Comment: 10 pages,5 figures

Abstract: The cross section of the process $e^+e^- \rightarrow \eta'J/\psi$ is measured at center-of-mass energies from $\sqrt{s} =$ 4.178 to 4.600 GeV using data samples corresponding to a total integrated luminosity of 11 fb$^{-1}$ collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII storage ring. The dependence of the cross section on $\sqrt{s}$ shows an enhancement around $4.2$ GeV. While the shape of the cross section cannot be fully explained with a single $\psi(4160)$ or $\psi(4260)$ state, a coherent sum of the two states does provide a reasonable description of the data.

Abstract: In 2018, the STAR collaboration collected data from $_{44}^{96}Ru+_{44}^{96}Ru$ and $_{40}^{96}Zr+_{40}^{96}Zr$ at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=200$ GeV to search for the presence of the chiral magnetic effect in collisions of nuclei. The isobar collision species alternated frequently between $_{44}^{96}Ru+_{44}^{96}Ru$ and $_{40}^{96}Zr+_{40}^{96}Zr$. In order to conduct blind analyses of studies related to the chiral magnetic effect in these isobar data, STAR developed a three-step blind analysis procedure. Analysts are initially provided a "reference sample" of data, comprised of a mix of events from the two species, the order of which respects time-dependent changes in run conditions. After tuning analysis codes and performing time-dependent quality assurance on the reference sample, analysts are provided a species-blind sample suitable for calculating efficiencies and corrections for individual $\approx30$-minute data-taking runs. For this sample, species-specific information is disguised, but individual output files contain data from a single isobar species. Only run-by-run corrections and code alteration subsequent to these corrections are allowed at this stage. Following these modifications, the "frozen" code is passed over the fully un-blind data, completing the blind analysis. As a check of the feasibility of the blind analysis procedure, analysts completed a "mock data challenge," analyzing data from $Au+Au$ collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=27$ GeV, collected in 2018. The $Au+Au$ data were prepared in the same manner intended for the isobar blind data. The details of the blind analysis procedure and results from the mock data challenge are presented.

Abstract: We report on the first measurement of the charmed baryon $\Lambda_c^{\pm}$ production at midrapidity ($|y|$ $<$ 1) in Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 200 GeV collected by the STAR experiment at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider. The $\Lambda_c$/$D^0$ (denoting ($\Lambda_c^++\Lambda_c^-$)/($D^0+\bar{D^0}$)) yield ratio is measured to be 1.08 $\pm$ 0.16 (stat.) $\pm$ 0.26 (sys.) in the 0--20% most central Au+Au collisions for the transverse momentum ($p_T$) range 3 $<$ $p_T$ $<$ 6 GeV/$c$. This is significantly larger than the PYTHIA model calculations for $p+p$ collisions. The measured $\Lambda_c$/$D^0$ ratio, as a function of $p_T$ and collision centrality, is comparable to the baryon-to-meson ratios for light and strange hadrons in Au+Au collisions. Model calculations including coalescence hadronization for charmed baryon and meson formation reproduce the features of our measured $\Lambda_c$/$D^0$ ratio., Comment: 5 pages, 3 figures

Abstract: The Breit-Wheeler process which produces matter and anti-matter from photon collisions is investigated experimentally through the observation of 6085 exclusive electron-positron pairs in ultra-peripheral Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{_{NN}}}=200$ GeV. The measurements reveal a large fourth-order angular modulation of $\cos{4\Delta\phi}=(16.8\pm2.5)\%$ and smooth invariant mass distribution absent of vector mesons ($\phi$, $\omega$ and $\rho$) at the experimental limit of $\le 0.2\%$ of the observed yields. The differential cross section as a function of $e^+e^-$ pair transverse momentum $P_\perp$ peaks at low value with $\sqrt{ \langle P_\perp^2 \rangle } = 38.1\pm0.9$ MeV and displays a significant centrality dependence. These features are consistent with QED calculations for the collision of linearly polarized photons quantized from the extremely strong electromagnetic fields generated by the highly charged Au nuclei at ultra-relativistic speed. The experimental results have implications for vacuum birefringence and for mapping the magnetic field which is important for emergent QCD phenomena., Comment: Keywords: Ultra-peripheral collisions, Breit-Wheeler process, vacuum birefringence, two-photon process, QED under extreme conditions, strong fields

Abstract: Using a total of 11.0 fb$^{-1}$ of $e^{+}e^{-}$ collision data with center-of-mass energies between 4.009 GeV and 4.6 GeV and collected with the BESIII detector at BEPCII, we measure fifteen exclusive cross sections and effective form factors for the process $e^{+}e^{-}\rightarrow\Xi^{-}\bar\Xi^{+}$ by means of a single baryon-tag method. After performing a fit to the dressed cross section of $e^{+}e^{-}\rightarrow\Xi^{-}\bar\Xi^{+}$, no significant $\psi(4230)$ or $\psi(4260)$ resonance is observed in the $\Xi^{-}\bar\Xi^{+}$ final states, and upper limits at the 90\% confidence level on $\Gamma_{ee}\mathcal{B}$ for the processes $\psi(4230)$/$\psi(4260)\rightarrow\Xi^{-}\bar\Xi^{+}$ are determined. In addition, an excited $\Xi$ baryon at 1820 MeV/$c^{2}$ is observed with a statistical significance of 6.2 $\sim$ 6.5$\sigma$ by including the systematic uncertainty, and the mass and width are measured to be $M = (1825.5 \pm 4.7 \pm 4.7)$~MeV/$c^{2}$ and $\Gamma = (17.0 \pm 15.0 \pm 7.9)$~MeV, which confirms the existence of the $J^{P}=\frac{3}{2}^{-}$ state $\Xi(1820)$., Comment: 8 pages, 4 figures, 1 Supplemental Material with 2 pages, consistent with paper published in Phys.

Abstract: We report a study of the $e^{+}e^{-} \to D^{+} D^{-} \pi^{+} \pi^{-}$ process using $e^{+}e^{-}$ collision data samples with an integrated luminosity of $2.5\,\rm{fb}^{-1}$ at center-of-mass energies from 4.36 to $4.60 \rm{GeV}$, collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII storage ring. The $D_{1}(2420)^+$ is observed in the $D^{+} \pi^{+} \pi^{-}$ mass spectrum. The mass and width of the $D_{1}(2420)^+$ are measured to be $(2427.2\pm 1.0_{\rm stat.}\pm 1.2_{\rm syst.}) \rm{MeV}/c^2$ and $(23.2\pm 2.3_{\rm stat.} \pm2.3_{\rm syst.}) \rm{MeV}$, respectively. The first errors are statistical and the second ones are systematic. In addition, the Born cross sections of the $e^{+}e^{-} \to D_{1}(2420)^+D^- + c.c. \to D^{+} D^{-} \pi^{+} \pi^{-}$ and $e^{+}e^{-} \to \psi(3770) \pi^{+} \pi^{-} \to D^{+} D^{-} \pi^{+} \pi^{-}$ processes are measured as a function of the center-of-mass energy., Comment: Updated version published in PLB

Abstract: Using E1 radiative transitions $\psi(3686) \to \gamma\chi_{cJ}$ from a sample of $(448.1 \pm 2.9)\times10^{6}$ $\psi(3686)$ events collected with the BESIII detector, the decays $\chi_{cJ}\to \Sigma^{+}\bar{p}K_{S}^{0}+c.c.~(J = 0, 1, 2)$ are studied. The decay branching fractions are measured to be $\mathcal{B}(\chi_{c0}\to \Sigma^{+}\bar{p}K_{S}^{0}+c.c.) = (3.52 \pm 0.19\pm 0.21)\times10^{-4}$, $\mathcal{B}(\chi_{c1}\to \Sigma^{+}\bar{p}K_{S}^{0}+c.c.) = (1.53 \pm 0.10\pm 0.08)\times10^{-4}$, and $\mathcal{B}(\chi_{c2}\to \Sigma^{+}\bar{p}K_{S}^{0}+c.c.) = (8.25 \pm 0.83 \pm 0.49)\times10^{-5}$, where the first and second uncertainties are the statistical and systematic ones, respectively. No evident intermediate resonances are observed in the studied processes.

291. The chemical structure of young high-mass star-forming clumps: (I) Deuteration

Abstract: The chemical structure of high-mass star nurseries is important for a general understanding of star formation. Deuteration is a key chemical process in the earliest stages of star formation because its efficiency is sensitive to the environment. Using the IRAM-30 m telescope at 1.3--4.3 mm wavelengths, we have imaged two parsec-scale high-mass protostellar clumps (P1 and S) that show different evolutionary stages but are located in the same giant filamentary {infrared dark cloud} G28.34+0.06. Deep spectral images at subparsec resolution reveal the dust and gas physical structures of both clumps. We find that (1) the low-$J$ lines of $\rm N_2H^+$, HCN, HNC, and $\rm HCO^+$ isotopologues are subthermally excited; and (2) the deuteration of $\rm N_2H^+$ is more efficient than that of $\rm HCO^+$, HCN, and HNC by an order of magnitude. The deuterations of these species are enriched toward the chemically younger clump S compared with P1, indicating that this process favors the colder and denser environment ($\rm T_{kin} \sim14 K$, $\rm N(NH_3) \sim 9\times 10^{15}\,cm^{-2}$). In contrast, single deuteration of $\rm NH_3$ is insensitive to the environmental difference between P1 and S; and (3) single deuteration of $\rm CH_3OH$ ($\rm > 10\%$) is detected toward the location where CO shows a depletion of $\sim10$. This comparative chemical study between P1 and S links the chemical variations to the environmental differences and shows chemical similarities between the early phases of high- and low-mass star-forming regions.

Abstract: We report the first observation of $D^+\to\tau^+\nu_\tau$ with a significance of $5.1\sigma$. We measure ${\cal B}(D^+\to\tau^+\nu_\tau) = (1.20\pm0.24_{\text{stat.}}\pm0.12_{\text{syst.}})\times10^{-3}$. Taking the world average ${\cal B}(D^+\to\mu^+\nu_\mu) = (3.74\pm0.17)\times10^{-4}$, we obtain $R_{\tau/\mu} =\Gamma(D^+\to\tau^+\nu_\tau)/\Gamma(D^+\to\mu^+\nu_\mu) = 3.21\pm0.64_{\text{stat.}}\pm0.43_{\text{syst.}}$, which is consistent with the Standard Model expectation of lepton flavor universality. Using external inputs, our results give values for the $D^+$ decay constant $f_{D^+}$ and the CKM matrix element $|V_{cd}|$ that are consistent with, but less precise than, other determinations., Comment: 8 pages, 3 figures, as published

Abstract: By analyzing 2.93 fb$^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ annihilation data taken at the center-of-mass energy $\sqrt s=$ 3.773 GeV with the BESIII detector, we determine the branching fractions of the inclusive decays $D^+\to\phi X$ and $D^0\to\phi X$ to be $(1.135\pm0.034\pm0.031)\%$ and $(1.091\pm0.027\pm0.035)\%$, respectively, where $X$ denotes any possible particle combination. The first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic. We also determine the branching fractions of the decays $D\to\phi X$ and their charge conjugate modes $\bar{D}\to\phi \bar{X}$ separately for the first time, and no significant CP asymmetry is observed.

Abstract: Liquid xenon (LXe) is employed in a number of current and future detectors for rare event searches. We use the EXO-200 experimental data to measure the absolute scintillation and ionization yields generated by $\gamma$ interactions from $^{228}$Th (2615~keV), $^{226}$Ra (1764~keV) and $^{60}$Co (1332~keV and 1173~keV) calibration sources, over a range of electric fields. The $W$-value that defines the recombination-independent energy scale is measured to be $11.5~\pm~0.5$~(syst.)~$\pm~0.1$~(stat.) eV. These data are also used to measure the recombination fluctuations in the number of electrons and photons produced by the calibration sources at the MeV-scale, which deviate from extrapolations of lower-energy data. Additionally, a semi-empirical model for the energy resolution of the detector is developed, which is used to constrain the recombination efficiency, i.e., the fraction of recombined electrons that result in the emission of a detectable photon. Detailed measurements of the absolute charge and light yields for MeV-scale electron recoils are important for predicting the performance of future neutrinoless double beta decay detectors.

Abstract: Based on the data sample of $448.1\times10^{6}$ $\psi(3686)$ events collected with the BESIII detector at BEPCII, we present a study of the decays $\psi(3686)\rightarrow\gamma\chi_{cJ}\rightarrow\gamma\bar{p}K^{*+}\Lambda+c.c.$ and $\psi(3686)\rightarrow\bar{p}K^{*+}\Lambda+c.c.$. The branching fractions of $\chi_{cJ}\rightarrow\bar{p}K^{*+}\Lambda+c.c.$ ($J$=0, 1, 2) are measured to be $(4.8\pm0.7\pm0.5)\times10^{-4}$, $(5.0\pm0.5\pm0.4)\times10^{-4}$, and $(8.2\pm0.9\pm0.7)\times10^{-4}$, respectively, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic. The branching fraction of $\psi(3686)\rightarrow\bar{p}K^{*+}\Lambda+c.c.$ is measured to be $(6.3\pm0.5\pm0.5)\times10^{-5}$. All these decay modes are observed for the first time.

Abstract: Based on a sample of 1.31 billion $J/\psi$ events collected with the BESIII detector, we perform a search for the rare decay $\eta'\rightarrow 4\pi^{0}$ via $J/\psi\rightarrow\gamma\eta'$. No significant $\eta'$ signal is observed in the invariant mass spectrum of 4$\pi^{0}$. With a Bayesian approach, the upper limit on the branching fraction of $\eta'\rightarrow 4\pi^{0}$ is determined to be $\mathcal{B}(\eta'\rightarrow 4\pi^{0})$ $< 4.94\times10^{-5}$ at the 90\% confidence level, which is a factor of six smaller than the previous experimental limit.

Abstract: Using 448.1 $\times$ $10^{6}$ $\psi(3686)$ events collected with the BESIII detector at BEPCII, we employ a single-baryon tagging technique to make the first observation of $\psi(3686)\rightarrow\Xi(1530)^{-}\bar\Xi(1530)^{+}$ and $\Xi(1530)^{-}\bar\Xi^{+}$ decays with a statistical significance of more than 10$\sigma$ and 5.0$\sigma$, respectively. The branching fractions are measured to be $\cal{B}$$[\psi(3686)\rightarrow\Xi(1530)^{-}\bar\Xi(1530)^{+}] $ = (11.45 $\pm$ 0.40 $\pm$ 0.59) $\times$ $10^{-5}$ and $\cal{B}$$[\psi(3686)\rightarrow\Xi(1530)^{-}\bar\Xi^{+}]$ = (0.70 $\pm$ 0.11 $\pm$ 0.04) $\times$ $10^{-5}$. The angular distribution parameter for $\psi(3686)\rightarrow\Xi(1530)^{-}\bar\Xi(1530)^{+}$ is determined to be $\alpha$ = 0.40 $\pm$ 0.24 $\pm$ 0.06, which agrees with the theoretical predictions within 1$\sigma$. The first uncertainties are statistical, and the second systematic., Comment: 8 pages, 8 figures, Consistent with paper published in Phys. Rev. D 100, 051101(R) (2019)

Abstract: By analyzing a 2.93~$\rm fb^{-1}$ data sample of $e^+e^-$ collisions, recorded at a center-of-mass energy of 3.773 $\rm \,GeV$ with the BESIII detector operated at the BEPCII collider, we have searched for the semileptonic $D^+$ transition into the axial-vector meson ${\bar{K}}_{1}(1270)^{0}$. The $D^{+} \rightarrow {\bar{K}}_{1}(1270)^{0}e^{+}\nu_{e}$ decay is observed for the first time with a statistical significance greater than $10\sigma$. Its decay branching fraction is determined to be ${\mathcal B}[D^+\to \bar K_1(1270)^0 e^+\nu_e]=(2.30\pm0.26\pm 0.18 \pm 0.25)\times10^{-3}$, where the first and second uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively, and the third originates from the input branching fraction of ${\bar{K}}_{1}(1270)^{0} \rightarrow K^{-} \pi^{+} \pi^{0}$.

Abstract: The four decay modes $D^{0}\to\phi\pi^{0}$, $D^{0}\to\phi\eta$, $D^{+}\to\phi\pi^{+}$, and $D^{+}\to\phi K^{+}$ are studied by using a data sample taken at the centre-of-mass energy $\sqrt{s} = 3.773$~GeV~with the BESIII detector, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.93 fb$^{-1}$. The branching fractions of the first three decay modes are measured to be ${\cal B}(D^{0}\to\phi\pi^{0})=(1.168\pm0.028\pm0.028)\times10^{-3}$, ${\cal B}(D^{0}\to\phi\eta)=(1.81\pm0.46\pm0.06)\times10^{-4}$, and ${\cal B}(D^{+}\to\phi\pi^{+})=(5.70\pm0.05\pm0.13)\times10^{-3}$, respectively, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second are systematic. No significant signal is observed of the decay $D^+\to\phi{K^+}$ and the upper limit of its branching fraction is set for the first time, to be $2.1\times10^{-5}$ at the $90\%$ confidence level. The ratio of ${\cal B}(D^0\to\phi\pi^0)$ to $\cal B(D^+\to\phi\pi^+)$ is calculated to be $(20.49\pm0.50\pm0.45)\%$, which is consistent with the theoretical prediction based on isospin symmetry between these two decay modes.

Abstract: nEXO is a proposed experiment to search for the neutrino-less double beta decay ($0\nu\beta\beta$) of $^{136}$Xe in a tonne-scale liquid xenon time projection chamber (TPC). The nEXO TPC will be equipped with charge collection tiles to form the anode. In this work, the charge reconstruction performance of this anode design is studied with a dedicated simulation package. A multi-variate method and a deep neural network are developed to distinguish simulated $0\nu\beta\beta$ signals from backgrounds arising from trace levels of natural radioactivity in the detector materials. These simulations indicate that the nEXO TPC with charge-collection tiles shows promising capability to discriminate the $0\nu\beta\beta$ signal from backgrounds. The estimated half-life sensitivity for $0\nu\beta\beta$ decay is improved by $\sim$20$~(32)\%$ with the multi-variate~(deep neural network) methods considered here, relative to the sensitivity estimated in the nEXO pre-conceptual design report.
