Design and Construction of the BESIII Detector
read the original abstract
This paper will discuss the design and construction of BESIII, which is designed to study physics in the tau-charm energy region utilizing the new high luminosity BEPCII double ring e+e- collider. The expected performance will be given based on Monte Carlo simulations and results of cosmic ray and beam tests. In BESIII, tracking and momentum measurements for charged particles are made by a cylindrical multilayer drift chamber in a 1 T superconducting solenoid. Charged particles are identified with a time-of-flight system based on plastic scintillators in conjunction with dE/dx (energy loss per unit pathlength) measurements in the drift chamber. Energies of electromagnetic showers are measured by a CsI(Tl) crystal calorimeter located inside the solenoid magnet. Muons are identified by arrays of resistive plate chambers in the steel magnetic flux return. The level 1 trigger system, Data Acquisition system and the event filter system based on networked computers will also be described.

Searching for apparent baryon number violation in $\Lambda_c^+$ decays at the Super Tau-Charm Facility
STCF with 1 ab^{-1} can probe several-TeV new-physics scales in sterile-neutrino EFT and constrain an RPV SUSY parameter to ~0.1 TeV^{-2} for apparent BNV in unexplored Lambda_c+ channels.
