Abstract

Using a data sample collected with the CLEO II detector at CESR, we have searched for dipion transitions between pairs of Υ\Upsilon resonances at energies near the Υ(4S)\Upsilon(4S). We obtain upper limits B(Υ(4S)Υ(2S)π+π)<3.9×104B(\Upsilon(4S)\to \Upsilon(2S)\pi^+\pi^-) < 3.9 \times 10^{-4} and B(Υ(4S)Υ(1S)π+π)<1.2×104B(\Upsilon(4S)\to \Upsilon(1S)\pi^+\pi^-) < 1.2 \times 10^{-4}. We also observe the transitions Υ(3S)Υ(1S)\Upsilon(3S)\to \Upsilon(1S), Υ(3S)Υ(2S)\Upsilon(3S)\to \Upsilon(2S), and Υ(2S)Υ(1S)\Upsilon(2S)\to \Upsilon(1S), from which we measure the cross-sections for the radiative processes e+eΥ(3S)γe^+e^- \to \Upsilon(3S)\gamma and e+eΥ(2S)γe^+e^- \to \Upsilon(2S)\gamma.
