The question if the Bose statistics is broken at the TeV scale is discussed. The decay of a new heavy spin 1 gauge boson Z' into two photons, Z'-> 2 gamma, is forbidden by the Bose statistics among other general principles of quantum field…

Using 12.7 $fb^{-1}$ of data collected with the CLEO detector at CESR, we observed two-photon production of the $c \bar c$ states $\chi_{c0}$ and $\chi_{c2}$ in their decay to $\pi^+ \pi^- \pi^+ \pi^-$. We measured…
We show that the decay rates of the Higgs boson to a pseudoscalar quarkonium and a pair of leptons, $h\to P\ell^+\ell^-$ ($P\in\{\eta_c,\eta_b\}$), can be substantially enhanced in a scenario with two Higgs doublets with a softly broken…

We study the semileptonic decays of the lowest-lying bc baryons to the lowest-lying cc baryons (Xi_{bc}^{(\prime*)}--> Xi_{cc}^{(*)} and Omega_{bc}^{(\prime*)}--> Omega_{cc}^{(*)}), in the limit m_b, m_c >> Lambda_{QCD} and close to the…

We discuss the role of fully heavy tetraquarks in ultraperipheral collisions $AA\to AA\, J/\psi J/\psi$ and $AA \to AA\, \gamma \gamma$. Two-photon couplings to scalar and tensor tetraquarks are considered. We use relatively recent results…
The spectroscopy of the doubly heavy baryons including different heavy quarks is studied based on the heavy quark symmetry of QCD. We point out that, when the two heavy quarks are in $S$-wave, these baryons with a certain spin $j_l$ of the…
