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…

We study the energy distributions of dipion transitions $\Upsilon(5S)$ to $\Upsilon(1S,2S,3S)\pi^+\pi^-$ in the final state rescattering model. Since the $\Upsilon(5S)$ is well above the open bottom thresholds, the dipion transitions are…

Using samples of (5.93 +/- 0.10) x 10^6 Upsilon(3S) decays and (9.11 +/- 0.14) x 10^6 Upsilon(2S) decays collected with the CLEO detector, we report improved measurements of the branching fractions for the following five transitions:…

We search for di-muon decays of a low-mass Higgs boson ($A^0$) in the fully reconstructed decay chain of $\Upsilon(2S,3S) \to \pipi\Upsilon(1S)$, $\Upsilon(1S) \to \g A^0$, $A^0 \to \mumu$. The $A^0$ is predicted by several extensions of…

The Belle collaboration recently discovered two resonances, $Z_b(10610)$ and $Z_b(10650)$ --- denoted $Z_b$ and $Z_b^\prime$ --- in the decays $\Upsilon(5S) \to \Upsilon(nS) \pi^+ \pi^-$ for $n$ = 1, 2, or 3, and $\Upsilon(5S) \to h_b(mP)…

Using a data sample collected with the CLEO II detector at CESR, we have searched for dipion transitions between pairs of $\Upsilon$ resonances at energies near the $\Upsilon(4S)$. We obtain upper limits $B(\Upsilon(4S)\to…

We study the $\Upsilon(1S)$ radiative decays to $\gamma \pi^+ \pi^-$ and $\gamma K^+ K^-$ using data recorded with the BaBar detector operating at the SLAC PEP-II asymmetric-energy $e^+ e^-$ collider at center-of-mass energies at the…

We propose an unique mechanism called {\it Initial Single Pion Emission} existing in the $\Upsilon(5S)$ decays, and further study the line shapes of $d\Gamma(\Upsilon(5S\to \Upsilon(nS)\pi^+\pi^-))/dm_{\Upsilon(nS)\pi^+}$ ($n=1,2,3$) and…

We report results of a search for the invisible decay of the Upsilon(1S) via the Upsilon(3S)->pi+pi-Upsilon(1S) transition using a data sample of 2.9 fb^{-1} at the Upsilon(3S) resonance. The data were collected with the Belle detector at…

Two-pion transitions in charmonium and bottomonium are considered with the leading relativistic effects taken into account. The contribution of the chromo- magnetic interaction of the charmed quarks to the amplitude of the decay $\psi(2S)…

We search for single-photon decays of the Upsilon(1S) resonance, Upsilon->gamma+invisible, where the invisible state is either a particle of definite mass, such as a light Higgs boson A0, or a pair of dark matter particles, chi chi-bar.…

The effect of isoscalar S-wave multi-channel pion-pion scattering ($\pi\pi\to\pi\pi,K\bar{K},\eta\eta$) is considered in the analysis of data on decays of the $\Upsilon$-meson family -- $\Upsilon(2S)\to\Upsilon(1S)\pi\pi$,…

We present the first measurement of $\Upsilon(4S)$ decays to $\pi^+pi^-\Upsilon(1S)$ and $\pi^+pi^-\Upsilon(2S)$ based on a sample of 230$\times10^6$ $\Upsilon(4S)$ mesons collected with the BABAR detector. We measure the product branching…

The decay widths of four-body double-pion decays $\ds\to pn \pi^0\pi^0$, $\ds\to pn \pi^+\pi^-$, and iso-scalar parts of $\ds\to pp \pi^0\pi^-$ and $\ds\to nn \pi^+\pi^0$ are explicitly calculated with the help of the $d^*$ wave function…

We analyze the pi pi production amplitudes in the excited Upsilon decay processes, Upsilon(2S)-->Upsilon(1S)pi+pi-, Upsilon(3S)-->Upsilon(1S)pi+pi- and Upsilon(3S)-->Upsilon(2S)pi+pi-, and the pi pi and KKbar production amplitudes in the…
