Abstract
By analyzing 482 pb$^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ collision data collected at $\sqrt s=4.009$ GeV with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, we measure the absolute branching fractions for the semileptonic decays $D_{s}^{+}\toηe^{+}ν_{e}$ and $D_{s}^{+}\to η'e^{+}ν_{e}$ to be ${B}(D_{s}^{+}\rightarrowηe^{+}ν_{e})=(2.30\pm0.31\pm0.08)$\% and ${B}(D_{s}^{+}\rightarrowη'e^{+} ν_{e}) = (0.93\pm0.30\pm0.05)$\%, respectively, and their ratio $\frac{{B}(D_{s}^{+}\rightarrowη'e^{+}ν_{e})} {{B}(D_{s}^{+}\rightarrowηe^{+}ν_{e})}=0.40\pm0.14\pm0.02$, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second ones are systematic. The results are in good agreement with previous measurements within uncertainties; they can be used to determine the $η-η'$ mixing angle and improve upon the $D_s^+$ semileptonic branching ratio precision.
