Measurements of $\Sigma$ electromagnetic form factors in the time-like region using the untagged initial-state radiation technique

The process $e^{+}e^{-}\to\Sigma^{+}\bar{\Sigma}^{-}$ is studied from threshold up to 3.04 GeV/$c^2$ via the initial-state radiation technique using data with an integrated luminosity of 12.0 fb$^{-1}$, collected at center-of-mass energies between 3.773 and 4.258 GeV with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider. The pair production cross sections and the effective form factors of $\Sigma$ are measured in eleven $\Sigma^{+}\bar{\Sigma}^{-}$ invariant mass intervals from threshold to 3.04 GeV/$c^2$. The results are consistent with the previous results from Belle and BESIII. Furthermore, the branching fractions of the decays $J/\psi\to\Sigma^{+}\bar{\Sigma}^{-}$ and $\psi(3686)\to\Sigma^{+}\bar{\Sigma}^{-}$ are determined and the obtained results are consistent with the previous results of BESIII.
