Measurements of Σ And σ time-like electromagnetic form factors for center-of-mass energies from 2.3864 to 3.0200 GeV

2021    CERN İşbirliği

The Born cross sections of the ${e}^{+}{e}^{-}\to {\Sigma }^{+}{\overline{\Sigma }}^{-}$ and ${e}^{+}{e}^{-}\to {\Sigma }^{-}{\overline{\Sigma }}^{+}$ processes are determined for center-of-mass energy from 2.3864 to 3.0200 GeV with the BESIII detector. The cross section lineshapes can be described properly by a pQCD function and the resulting ratio of effective form factors for the ${\Sigma }^{+}$ and ${\Sigma }^{-}$ is consistent with 3. In addition, ratios of the ${\Sigma }^{+}$ electric and magnetic form factors, $|{G}_{E}/{G}_{M}|$, are obtained at three center-of-mass energies through an analysis of the angular distributions. These measurements, which are studied for the first time in the off-resonance region, provide precision experimental input for understanding baryonic structure. The observed new features of the ${\Sigma }^{±}$ form factors require more theoretical discussions for the hyperons.
