Abstract
We report an amplitude analysis and branching fraction measurement of Ds+→K+K−π+ decay using a data sample of 3.19 fb−1 recorded with BESIII detector at a center-of-mass energy of 4.178 GeV. We perform a model-independent partial wave analysis in the low K+K− mass region to determine the K+K− S-wave line shape, followed by an amplitude analysis of our very pure high-statistics sample. With the detection efficiency based on the amplitude analysis results, the absolute branching fraction is measured to be B(Ds+→K+K−π+)=(5.47±0.08stat±0.13sys)%.2 MoreReceived 19 November 2020Accepted 2 July 2021DOI:https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevD.104.012016Published by the American Physical Society under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International license.

Highlights
The decay Dþs → KþK−πþ is widely used as a reference mode in DÆs analyses because of its large branching fraction (BF) and low background contamination

The one with a uniform distribution of Dþs → KþK−πþ decays over the phase space (PHSP) is called “PHSP Monte Carlo (MC)." In the second sample, called “signal MC”, the Dþs → KþK−πþ decay is generated according to the model obtained from the amplitude analysis presented in this paper
Summary
The decay Dþs → KþK−πþ is widely used as a reference mode in DÆs analyses because of its large branching fraction (BF) and low background contamination. Dalitz plot analyses of the Dþs → KþK−πþ decay have been performed by the E687 [2], CLEO [3] and BABAR [4]. In this paper we report an amplitude analysis and BF measurement of Dþs → KþK−πþ (the inclusion of charge conjugates is implied) using a 3.19 fb−1 data sample collected with the BESIII detector at a center-of-mass energy (ECMS) of 4.178 GeV. At this energy, the cross section for the DÃsÆD∓s final state in eþe− annihilations is 1 order magnitude larger than that for Dþs D−s [6].
