Abstract

A neutral structure in the DD¯ system around the DD¯ mass threshold is observed with a statistical significance greater than 10σ in the processes eþe− → DþD−π0 þ c:c: and eþe− → D0D¯ 0π0 þ c:c: at ffisffiffi p ¼ 4.226 and 4.257 GeV in the BESIII experiment. The structure is denoted as Zcð3885Þ0. Assuming the presence of a resonance, its pole mass and width are determined to be ½3885.7 þ4.3 −5.7 ðstatÞ 8.4ðsystÞ MeV=c2 and ½35 þ11 −12 ðstatÞ 15ðsystÞ MeV, respectively. The Born cross sections are measured to be σ½eþe− → Zcð3885Þ0π0; Zcð3885Þ0 → DD¯ ¼ ½77 13ðstatÞ 17ðsystÞ pb at 4.226 GeV and ½47 9ðstatÞ 10ðsystÞ pb at 4.257 GeV. The ratio of decay rates B½Zcð3885Þ0 → DþD− þ c:c:=B½Zcð3885Þ0 → D0D¯ 0 þ c:c: is determined to be 0.96 0.18ðstatÞ 0.12ðsystÞ, consistent with no isospin violation in the process, Zcð3885Þ0 → DD¯ .
