Using e+e− collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 19 fb−1 collected by the BESIII detector at center-of-mass energies ranging from 4.13 to 4.70 GeV, we report the first evidence for a new excited Ω− hyperon, the Ω(2109)−, through the process e+e−→Ω(2109)−Ω¯++c. c. with a significance of 4.1σ. The mass and width of Ω(2109)− are measured to be 2108.5±5.2stat±0.9syst MeV/c2 and 18.3±16.4stat±5.7syst MeV, respectively. We also present evidence for a new production mechanism for the previously identified Ω(2012)− via the process e+e−→Ω(2012)−Ω¯++c. c. with a significance of 3.5σ.
