Candidate of 0-+ ppbar Bound State
X(1835) could be the same structure as ppbar mass
threshold enhancement X(1860)/X(1830).
It could be a ppbar bound state since it dominantly
decays to ppbar when its mass is above ppbar mass
threshold.
Its spin-parity should be 0-+: this would be an
important test.
There is already an (1760) nearby , so that
X(1835) is very likely to be an unconventional 0-+
meson.

This result cannot be
explained by pure FSI effect,
since FSI is a universal effect.
FSI interpretation of the
narrow and strong ppbar
threshold enhancement is
disfavored.
This indicates that X(1860)
has a production property
similar to ’ meson.

This also indicates

Summary of new studies on ppbar mass
threshold structure X(1860)
Pure FSI effect cannot explain X(1860)
structure.
X(1860) has production properties similar to ’
meson
• Why a baryonium (candidate) has a production
properties similar to ’ meson?
• ’ excitation? Why an ’ excitation dominantly
decays into ppbar above ppbar mass threshold?

big destructive interference among X , (1700) and PS
Broad X cannot be fit with known mesons
or their interference
It is unlikely to be (1450), because:
• The parameters of the X is incompatible with (1450).
• (1450) has very small fraction to KK. From PDG:
Br ( (1450) K K ) 1.6 103 (95%C.L.)
It cannot be fit with the interference of (770) ,
(1900) and (2150):
• The log-likelihood value worsens by 85 (c2=170).
How to understand broad X(1580)?
Search of a similar structure in J/ KSK will
help to determine its isospin.
X(1580) could have different nature from
conventional mesons:
• There are already many 1- - mesons nearby.
• Width is much broader than other mesons.
• Broad width is expected for a multiquark state.

An ss analog of Y(4260) ( ss g )?
An ss ss 4-quark state?
More experimental information needed,
especially we can search for it in J/psi
decays at BESII and BESIII.

It has large BR(J/ψ pNX*) BR(NX* KΛ) 2 X 10-4 ,
suggesting NX* has strong coupling to KΛ.
Nx* is N(1535)?
From:
BR( J / pN(1535)) BR( N1535 p ) ~ 1 ~ 2 104
BR( J / pNX* ) BR( N X* K) ~ 2 104

Prospects of glueball
searches at BESIII
J/ decays are an ideal factory to search for
and study light exotic hadrons:
The production cross section of J/ is high.
The production BR of hadrons in J/ decays are
one order higher than ’ decays (“12% rule”).
The phase space to 1-3 GeV hadrons in J/
decays are larger than decays.
Exotic hadrons are naively expected to have
larger or similar production BR to conventional
hadrons in J/ decays.
Clean background environment compared with
hadron collision experiments, e.g., “JP, I” filter.
One Important Physics Goal of BESIII
With 1010 J/psi events, we hope to answer:
Whether glueballs exist or not?
• Naively, we estimate in each exclusive decay mode:
BR( J / G) BR(G hh) ~ 105
103
102
• If the eff. is about 20%, we would have 20000 events
for each decay mode
we should observe a relative narrow (width:
50~200MeV) glueball if it exists.
About scalar glueball
Many scalar mesons in the mass range 1.4~1.8
GeV, where a scalar glueball is predicted to be.
More studies will be performed at BESIII.
More theoretical studies are also needed:

2++ glueball candidates
Lattice QCD predicts the 2++ glueball mass in
the range of 2.2~2.4 GeV
(2230) was a candidate of 2++ glueball:
• It was first observed at MARKIII in J/KK
• It was observed at BES I in J/KK, , ppbar
• It was not observed at DM2.

The mass plots shows no
evident (2230) peaks in
J/KK, , ppbar, which
is different from BESI.
However, it is difficult to
exclude its existence since we
may still need a small signal
at the 4.5 level in the PWA
based on our preliminary
study. Its mass, width and BR
are consistent with BESI and
MARKIII results
Difficult to draw firm
conclusion at present. We
hope to give a final answer at
BESIII on (2230)
Other 2++ glueball candidates
No other obvious good candidates have been
observed in J/psi radiative decays in the mass
range predicted by LQCD.
What does it mean:
• LQCD prediction might not be very reliable, or
• BR(J/ G)xBR(Ghh) is small ( <10-4 ) so that
we don’t have the sensitivity to observe it ( quite
possible ), or,
• The width of a glueball is very large ( ~1GeV,
E.Klepmt ).
Where to search for the 0-+ glueball?
Lattice QCD predicts the 0-+ glueball mass in
the range of 2.3~2.6 GeV.
(1440) and X(1835) were suggested being
possible candidates, but their masses are
much lower than LQCD predictions.
No 0-+ glueball candidate observed in the
mass range 2.3~2.6 GeV

• LQCD reliable?
• Production rate could be
very low.
• Glueball width could be
very large.
Summary
New results on light 0-+,0++ and 1-- mesons as well
as excited baryons were briefly reviewed.
We would expect more new observations on light
hadron spectroscopy at BESIII and we hope to
answer whether glueballs exist or not at that time.

Discussion on KΛ mass threshold
enhancement NX(1610)
NX(1610) has strong coupling to KΛ:
• From BR( J / pp) 2 103
(S&D-wave
decay) and J / pNX (1600) is a P-wave
decay, we can estimate
BR( J / pNX ) 1.0 103
• From BESII,
BR( J / pNX ) BR( N X K) ~ 2 104
BR( N X K) 20%
• The phase space of NX to KΛ is very small, so
such a big BR shows NX has very strong
coupling to KΛ, indicating it has a big hidden
ssbar component. (5-quark system)
Non-observation of NX in p K
suggests an evidence of new baryon :
It is unlikely to be N*(1535).
If NX were N*(1535), it should be observed
in p K
process, since:
• (p N * K) BR( N * p) BR( N * K)
• From PDG, for the N* in the mass range
1535~1750 MeV, N*(1535) has the
largest BR( N * p) , and from previous
estimation, NX would also have almost the
largest BR to KΛ.
Also, the EM transition rate of NXto proton
is very low.
