Observation of a New $X(3872)$ Production Process $e^{+}{e}^{-}\to \omega X(3872)$

Abstract

Using $4.7\mathrm{f}{\mathrm{b}}^{-1}$ of $e^{+}{e}^{-}$ collision data at center-of-mass energies from 4.661 to 4.951 GeV collected by the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, we observe the $X(3872)$ production process $e^{+}{e}^{-}\to \omega X(3872)$ for the first time. The significance is $7.8\sigma$, including both the statistical and systematic uncertainties. The $e^{+}{e}^{-}\to \omega X(3872)$ Born cross section and the corresponding upper limit at 90\% confidence level at each energy point are reported. The line shape of the cross section indicates that the $\omega X(3872)$ signals may be from the decays of some non-trivial structures.
