Title:Study of $ϕ\to K\bar{K}$ in the amplitude analysis of $D^{+}\to K_{S}^{0}K_{L}^{0}π^{+}$
View PDF HTML (experimental)Abstract:We present the first amplitude analysis and branching fraction measurement of $D^{+} \rightarrow K_{S}^{0}K_{L}^{0}\pi^{+}$ decay. The analysis uses a dataset corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 20.3~$\rm fb^{-1}$, which was recorded at a center-of-mass energy 3.773~GeV by the BESIII detector. The measured branching fraction is $\mathcal{B}(D^{+} \rightarrow K_{S}^{0}K_{L}^{0}\pi^{+})=(5.780\pm0.085\pm 0.052)\times10^{-3}$, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. Using the known value of ${\cal B}(D^+ \to \phi \pi^+,\,\phi \to K^+K^-)$, we determine the relative branching fraction between $\phi \to K_{S}^0K_{L}^0$ and $\phi \to K^+K^-$ to be $\mathcal{B}(D^{+} \to \phi \pi^{+}, \phi \to K_{S}^0K_{L}^0)/\mathcal{B}(D^{+} \to \phi \pi^{+}, \phi \to K^+K^-)= 0.628\pm0.022\pm 0.015\pm0.017$, where the third uncertainty is related to $\mathcal{B}(D^{+} \to \phi \pi^{+}, \phi \to K^+K^-)$. This result is significantly lower than the previous world average and is consistent with the isospin expectation for the $\phi$ meson's coupling to charged and neutral kaon pairs.
