Abstract
The BESIII experiment has accumulated millions of spin entangled hyperon–antihyperon pairs from the decays of the J/ψ and ψ(2S ) mesons produced in electron–positron collisions. Using multi-dimensional methods to analyze the angular distributions in the sequential decays the hyperon and antihyperon decay amplitudes are studied and tests of the combined charge-conjugation–parity (CP) symmetry are performed. Implications of the recent results using J/ψ decays into Λ$ \bar \Lambda $ and Ξ−$ \bar {\Xi}^{+} $ are presented. For the cascade decay chain, the exclusive measurement allows for three independent CP tests and the first direct determination of the weak phases.
