In this work, we investigate the $\Upsilon(10753)\to\Upsilon(nS)\pi^+\pi^-$ ($n=1,2,3$) processes by considering the hadronic loop mechanism, where $\Upsilon(10753)$ is assigned to a conventional bottomonium in the $4S$-$3D$ mixing scheme.…
We have searched for the bottomonium eta_b(1S) via the hindered magnetic dipole (M1) photon transition Upsilon(3S) -> gamma eta_b(1S). No evidence for such a transition is found in the data sample of 4.7 x 10^6 Upsilon(3S)'s collected with…
We perform the first global and unitary analysis of $e^+e^-\to b\bar{b}$ cross sections. We analyze exclusive cross sections in the $B\bar{B}$, $B^* \bar{B}(+c.c.)$, $B^*\bar{B}^*$, $B_s^*\bar{B}_s^*$, $\Upsilon(nS)\pi^+\pi^-$ and…
We search for B- ==> \tilde{D0}K- and B- ==> \tilde{D*0}K-, with \tilde{D*0} ==> \tilde{D0}pi0 or \tilde{D*0} ==> \tilde{D0}gamma, and \tilde{D0} ==> K+pi- (and charge conjugates). These final states can be reached through the b==>c…
In this work we examine the possible existence of new physics beyond the standard model which could modify the branching fractions of the leptonic (mainly tauonic) decays of bottomonium vector resonances below the $B\bar{B}$ threshold. The…
Rare decays $h\to Z V$ with $V$ denoting the narrow $c\bar{c}$ or $b\bar{b}$ resonances, such as $J/\Psi$ or $\Upsilon$ states, have been analyzed. Within the standard model, these channels may proceed through the tree-level transition…
$\pi^+\pi^-$ transitions of heavy quarkonia, especially the $ \Upsilon(3S)\to\Upsilon(1S)\pi^+\pi^-$ decay process, are revisited. In the framework of the Chiral Unitary Theory (ChUT), the $S$ wave $\pi\pi$ final state interaction (FSI) is…
Motivated by the latest improved measurements of B-meson decays, we make a comprehensive analysis of the impact of a family non-universal $Z^{\prime}$ boson on $B_s-\bar{B}_s$ mixing and two-body hadronic B-meson decays, all being…
The bottomonium spectrum is the perfect testing ground for the confining potential and unitarisation effects. The bottom quark is about three times heavier than the charm quark, so that $b\bar{b}$ systems probe primarily the short-range…
Stimulated by the exciting progress in the observation of new bottomonium states, we study the bottomonium spectrum. To calculate the mass spectrum, we adopt a nonrelativistic screened potential model. The radial Schr\"{o}dinger equation is…
I detail recent work done by the CLEO collaboration using data gathered at the CESR accelerator concerning the Upsilon system. Results include B_S production at the Upsilon(5S), decays of the Upsilon(nS) (n=1,2,3) to tau pairs, the Upsilon…
A study of transitions between $\Upsilon$ states with the emission of charged pions using 398 fb$^{-1}$ of data collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric energy $e^+e^-$ collider is presented. A clear peak from the decay…
We report a study of the hadronic transitions $\chi_{bJ}(2P)\to\omega\Upsilon(1S)$, with $\omega\to\pi^{+}\pi^{-}\pi^{0}$, using $28.2\times10^6~\Upsilon(3S)$ mesons recorded by the Belle detector. We present the first evidence for the…
To solve the discrepancy between the experimental data on the partial widths and lineshapes of the dipion emission of $\Upsilon(4S)$ and the theoretical predictions, we suggest that there is an additional contribution which was not taken…
We search for a light scalar particle produced in single-photon decays of the Upsilon(3S) resonance through the process Upsilon(3S) -> gamma A0, A0 -> invisible. Such an object appears in Next-to-Minimal Supersymmetric extensions of the…
We discuss the recently presented Belle results on the decays $\Upsilon(5S) \to \pi \pi \pi \chi_{bJ}(1P)$. The data indicate that in addition to the $\omega$ emission, $\Upsilon(5S) \to \omega \chi_{bJ}$, there is a significant non…
Using non relativistic effective Lagrangian techniques, we analyze the hadronic decay of the pi+pi- atom and the strong energy-level shift of pionic hydrogen in the ground state. We derive general formulae for the width and level shift,…
We review recent results in the spectroscopy of the bottomonium system. Among the recent measurements discussed are measurements of decays of all three sub-open threshold triplet-S bottomonium resonances to all three lepton flavors, and…
We examine the hadronic interactions of quarkonia, focusing on the decays psi(2s)->psi pi pi and upsilon(2s)-> upsilon pi pi. The leading gluonic operators in the multipole expansion are matched onto the chiral lagrangian with the…
