Abstract: (arXiv)
Using a dataset of (27.12±0.14)×108(27.12\pm 0.14)\times 10^{8}ψ(3686)\psi(3686) events collected by the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII collider, we report the first observation of the decay ψ(3686)Σ0Σˉ0ω\psi(3686)\to\Sigma^{0}\bar{\Sigma}^{0}\omega with a statistical significance of 8.9σ\sigma. The measured branching fraction is (1.24±0.16stat±0.11sys)×105(1.24 \pm 0.16_{\textrm{stat}} \pm 0.11_{\textrm{sys}}) \times 10^{-5}, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. Additionally, we investigate potential intermediate states in the invariant mass distributions of Σ0ω\Sigma^{0}\omega, Σˉ0ω\bar{\Sigma}^{0}\omega and Σ0Σˉ0\Sigma^{0}\bar{\Sigma}^{0}. A hint of a resonance is observed in the invariant mass distribution of MΣ0(Σˉ0)ωM_{\Sigma^{0}(\bar{\Sigma}^{0})\omega}, located around 2.06 GeV/c2c^2, with a significance of 2.5σ\sigma.
