After entering the 21st century,particle physics has developed rapidly in the study of Hadron Spectrum,especially in the study of charmonium states in decay final states,a series of new charmonium-like states that can’t be described by the traditional quark model have been found.The discovery of these exotic states not only poses new challenges to the quark model,but also provides a new opportunity to study strong interactions and test quantum chromodynamics(QCD).The first charmonium-like state X(3872),is found to be an isospin singlet with JPC=1++,the mass different between X(3872)and D0D*0 threshold which we denote as δ,δ is calculated to be(70±120)keV/c2.But the value of δ can’t tell us wether the X(3872)mass is above or below D0D*0 threshold,better knowledge of δ will be an important step towards a deeper understanding of the nature of the X(3872).A completely new method to measure the δ value by measuring the X(3872)γ line shape,which is sensitive to the δ value,is proposed by a theoretical paper.Therefore,we can measure the X(3872)γ line shape through the process of e+e-→π0X(3872)γ.One such connection could be a transition Zc(4020)0→X(3872)γ in the scenario where the X(3872)is dominantly an S-wave D0D*0 0molecule and the Zc(4020)0 is an isotopic triplet of near-threshold S-wave D*D*resonances.Therefore,we can search for the process of Zc(4020)0→X(3872)γ through the process of e+e-→πX(3872)γ.Based on the data recorded with the BESⅢ detector in the range of 4.178<(?)<4.600 GeV,we studied the reaction of e+e-→π0X(3872)γ and searched for Zc(4020)0→X(3872)γ.In neither of the two processes are significant signals observed.Upper limits at the 90%confidence level(C.L.)on the cross sections multiplied by the branching fractions,the upper limits are not conflict with the theoretical expectation.Using the experimental results on the σ(e+e-→π0Zc(4020)0)· B(Zc(4020)0→(D*D*)0),the ratio(B(Zc(4020)0→X(3872)γ)·B(X(3872)→π+π-J/ψ))/(B(Zc(4020)0→(D*D*)0)is determined to be less than 0.15%at the 90%C.L.The ratio does not contradict the prediction reported based on the molecular picture.The vector charmonium-like states is also called Y states.Experimentally,the Y states were mostly observed in states decaying into hidden or open charm states,but not into light hadron final states.Thus,searching for the Y states decaying into light hadron final states will improve our understanding of Y states.Based on the data recorded with the BESIII detector in the range of 3.773<(?)<4.701 GeV,we measured the Born cross sections of two light hadron channels e+e-→ωπ0 and e+e-→ωη.The power function of s-n can describe both line shapes well.No obvious ψ(4160),ψ(4230),ψ(4360),ψ(4415),ψ(4660)signals are found in the line shapes of e+e-→ωπ0 and e+e-→ωη,this suggests that the cross sections are too small for ωπ0 and ωπ decay modes.This provides input parameters for the theoretical model.
