We study the exclusive two-body nonleptonic $B_c\to X_{c\bar{c}}M$ decays, where $X_{c\bar{c}}$ is either a ground(1S) or a radially excited (2S or 3S) charmonium and $M$ is a pseudoscalar $(P)$ or a vector $(V)$ meson. We consider here…
Although the spectra of heavy quarkonium systems have been successfully explained by certain QCD motivated potential models, their strong decays are still an open problem. We perform a microscopic calculation of vector charmonium strong…
Recent data from Belle show unusually large partial widths Upsilon(5S) --> Upsilon(1S) pi^+pi^- and \Upsilon(5S) --> \Upsilon(2S) pi^+ pi^-. The Z(4430) narrow resonance also reported by Belle in psi' pi^+ spectrum has the properties…
We describe a search for hadronic decays of the Y(1S), Y(2S), and Y(3S) resonances to the exclusive final states rho pi, K*(892) Kbar, rho a2(1320), omega f2(1270), phi f2'(1525), K*(892) K2*(1430)bar, b1(1235) pi, K1(1270) Kbar, and…
We calculate the exclusive cross sections for e^+ e^- annihilation into two charmonium states through a virtual photon. Purely electromagnetic contributions are surprisingly large, changing the cross sections by as much as 21%. The…
Inspired by the potential prospects of ${\Upsilon}(nS)$ data samples ($n$ $=$ $1$, $2$, $3$) at LHC and SuperKEKB, ${\Upsilon}(nS)$ ${\to}$ $B_{c}{\rho}$, $B_{c}K^{\ast}$ decays are studied phenomenologically with pQCD approach. Branching…
We study the exclusive decay of $J/\Psi$, $\Upsilon$ and $B_c$ into a lepton pair combined with two pions in the two kinematic regions. One is specified by the two pions having large momenta, but a small invariant mass. The other is…
The proton form factor, two-photon annihilations into $p\bar{p}$ as well as exclusive charmonium decays are critically examined. It will be argued that the standard perturbative QCD analysis of these reactions fails, i.e. the need for…
With anticipation of abundant Upsilons data sample at high-luminosity heavy-flavor experiments in the future, we studied nonleptonic two-body weak decays of ${\Upsilon}(nS)$ below the open-bottom threshold with $n$ $=$ $1$, $2$ and $3$. It…
The first search for $Z_{c}$ pair production in $\Upsilon(1S)$ and $\Upsilon(2S)$ decays and in $e^{+}e^{-}$ annihilation at $\sqrt{s}$ = 10.52, 10.58, and 10.867 GeV is conducted using data collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB…
Using data obtained with the CLEO~III detector, running at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring (CESR), we report on a new study of exclusive radiative Upsilon(1S) decays into the final states gamma pi^+ pi^-, gamma K^+ K^-, and gamma p pbar..…
We perform a QCD analysis for the radiative decay of a heavy $^3S_1$ quarkonium into the tensor meson $f_2(1270)$. We make an attempt to separate the nonperturbative effect related to the quarkonium and that related to the tensor meson, the…
We report the study of e+e- -> Upsilon(1S)pi+pi-, Upsilon(2S)pi+pi-, Upsilon(3S)pi+pi-, and Upsilon(1S)K+K-, near the peak of the Upsilon(5S) resonance. The results are based on a data sample of 21.7 fb^-1 collected with the Belle detector…
The CMS collaboration has reported a measurement of $\Upsilon$ decays to ditaus using $61.9~{\rm fb}^{-1}$ of scouting data. If interpreted as the decay of $\Upsilon(1S,2S,3S)$, the measured ditau rate is more than ten times that seen in…
Recent studies indicate that the ground state of a QCD four bottom quark system may form a resonance in the range $\sim 18 -19$ GeV, near the di-$\Upsilon$ threshold, which may be observable at the LHC in the four lepton final state. These…
Motivated by concerns regarding possible two-body contributions to the recently-measured inclusive Upsilon(nS)->gamma+X (n=1, 2, 3) direct photon spectra, we report on a new study of exclusive radiative decays of these narrow Upsilon(nS)…
We investigate the effects of including the full three-loop QCD correction to the static short distance $1/r$ potential on the spectroscopy and decays in the charmonium and upsilon systems. We use a variational technique with the full…
Using CLEO data, we study the production of the anti-deuteron, d-bar, in Upsilon(nS) resonance decays and the nearby continuum. The branching ratios obtained are B^dir(Upsilon(1S) --> d-bar X) = (3.36 +- 0.23 +- 0.25) x 10^-5, B(Upsilon(1S)…
