Abstract
The BESIII experiment at BEPCII provides a clean environment to test baryon-dark sector connections and baryon-number violation. Using $10^{10}$ $J/\psi$ events, searches were performed for $\Sigma^{+}\to p+\text{inv}$, $\Xi^{-}\to\pi^{-}+\text{inv}$, and $\bar{\Lambda}-\Lambda$ oscillations. No excess was observed, yielding $\mathcal{B}(\Sigma^{+}\to p+\text{inv})<3.2\times10^{-5}$, $\mathcal{B}(\Xi^{-}\to\pi^{-}+\text{inv})<(4-7)\times10^{-5}$, and $P(\Lambda)<4.4\times10^{-6}$ (90\% C.L.). These are the most stringent limits on invisible baryon decays and $\Delta B=2$ transitions in strange baryons, probing new physics beyond the Standard Model.
