Observation of a vector charmoniumlike state at 4.7 ${\rm GeV}/c^2$ and search for $Z_{cs}$ in $e^+e^-\to K^+K^-J/ψ$
Abstract: Using data samples with an integrated luminosity of 5.85~fb${-1}$ collected at center-of-mass energies from 4.61 to 4.95 GeV with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII storage ring, we measure the cross section for the process $e+e-\to K+K-J/\psi$. A new resonance with a mass of $M = 4708_{-15}{+17}\pm21$ MeV/$c{2}$ and a width of $\Gamma = 126_{-23}{+27}\pm30$ MeV is observed in the energy-dependent line shape of the $e+e-\to K+K-J/\psi$ cross section with a significance over $5\sigma$. The $K{+}J/\psi$ system is also investigated to search for charged charmoniumlike states, but no significant $Z_{cs}+$ states are observed. Upper limits on the Born cross sections for $e+e-\to K{-} Z_{cs}(3985){+}/K{-} Z_{cs}(4000){+} + c.c.$ with $Z_{cs}(3985){\pm}/Z_{cs}(4000){\pm}\to K{\pm} J/\psi$ are reported at 90\% confidence levels. The ratio of branching fractions $\frac{\mathcal{B}(Z_{cs}(3985){+}\to K+ J/\psi)}{\mathcal{B}(Z_{cs}(3985){+}\to (\bar{D}{0}D_s{*+} + \bar{D}{*0}D_s+))}$ is measured to be less than 0.03 at 90\% confidence level.
