The notion of broken k -diamond partitions was introduced by Andrews and Paule.

Recently, Chan, and Paule and Radu proved some congruences modulo 5 for id="mmlsi2" class="mathmlsrc">lass="formulatext stixSupport mathImg" data-mathURL="/science?_ob=MathURL&_method=retrieve&_eid=1-s2.0-S0022314X16301020&_mathId=si2.gif&_user=111111111&_pii=S0022314X16301020&_rdoc=1&_issn=0022314X&md5=859922fa513808ab26728e0ddd116abb" title="Click to view the MathML source">Δ2(n)lass="mathContainer hidden">lass="mathCode">. In this paper, we prove several new infinite families of congruences modulo 5 for id="mmlsi2" class="mathmlsrc">lass="formulatext stixSupport mathImg" data-mathURL="/science?_ob=MathURL&_method=retrieve&_eid=1-s2.0-S0022314X16301020&_mathId=si2.gif&_user=111111111&_pii=S0022314X16301020&_rdoc=1&_issn=0022314X&md5=859922fa513808ab26728e0ddd116abb" title="Click to view the MathML source">Δ2(n)lass="mathContainer hidden">lass="mathCode"> by using an identity due to Newman. Our results generalize the congruences proved by Paule and Radu.
