Tremendous progress has been made in mapping out the spectrum of hadrons over the past decade with plans to make further advances in the decade ahead. Baryons and mesons, both expected and unexpected, have been found, the results of…
The recent observation of the h_c is an important test of QCD calculations and provides constraints on models of quarkonium spectroscopy. In this contribution I discuss some of these implications and describe methods to search for the h_c…
Lattice QCD has matured to a degree where it is now possible to study excited hadrons as they truly appear in nature, as short-lived resonant enhancements decaying into multiple possible final states. Through variational analysis of…
This paper reviews the spectroscopy and decay of B hadrons at the Tevatron. We discuss the spectroscopy of excited B states (B**, Bs**) and the observation of the Sigma_b baryon at the Tevatron. The second part of this review discusses the…
Recent rate measurements of B_s mesons and Lambda_b baryons produced in sqrt{s} = 1.96 TeV proton-antiproton and Upsilon(5S) electron-positron collisions are reviewed, including the first observations of six new decay modes: B_s -> D_s^+…
Hadron spectroscopy is one of the most important physics goals of BESIII. BESIII brings great opportunities to study the XYZ states of charmonium by directly producing the Y states up to 4.6 GeV. High statistics of charmonium decays…

While B0 and B+ mesons are well studied, mainly by the B factories, less is known about Bs mesons. Specifically large new physics effects may still be present in the Bs system. This unexplored region is studied by the CDF, D0, and Belle…

An overview of recent results from LEP concerning the hadronisation process is presented. Emphasis is placed on the $b$-quark. The first presented analysis is the measurement of the $b$-quark fragmentation function. It includes a new,…
The production of B hadrons is among the most abundant fundamental QCD processes measured at the LHC. We present for the first time predictions for this process accurate to next-to-next-to-leading order in QCD perturbation theory by…
Many measurements are necessary in the program of studying mixing, CP violation and rare decays of b and c quarks. These measurements require large numbers of B^o, B_s, B^- and D^{*+} hadrons. Fortunately, copius production of particles…
