Abstract

We calculate the spectrum and wave functions (WFs) of various states of bottomonium mesons (bbb\overline{b}) using a non-relativistic quark potential model (NRQPM). The calculated WFs are used to compute the radiative widths of various states of bbb\overline{b}. The strong decays widths of bottomonium states are also calculated using 3P0^3P_0 model by choosing simple harmonic oscillator wave functions (SHOWFs). The β\beta of SHOWFs for various states of the mesons are measured by fitting the numerical wave functions. The radiative and strong decay widths are used to calculate the branching ratios of bbb\overline{b} mesons. We also compare our calculated masses and widths with available experimental data.
