We report updated branching fraction measurements of the color-suppressed decays B0bar to D0 pi0, D*0 pi0, D0 eta, D*0 eta, D0 omega, D*0 omega, D0 eta_prime, and D*0 eta_prime. We measure the branching fractions (*10^-4): BF(B0bar to D0…

The hyperfine splittings in heavy quarkonia are studied using new experimental data on the di-electron widths. The smearing of the spin-spin interaction is taken into account, while the radius of smearing is fixed by the known…

We study possible effects of a light CP-odd Higgs boson on radiative Upsilon decays in the Next-to-Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. Recent constraints from CLEO on radiative Upsilon(1S) decays are translated into constraints on the…
We have studied semileptonic B decay to the exclusive charmless states pi, rho/omega, eta and eta' using the full 15.5 fb^-1 CLEO Upsilon(4S) sample, with measurements performed in subregions of phase space to minimize dependence on a…
Using 3.1 fb$^{-1}$ of data accumulated at the $\Upsilon$(4S) by the CLEO-II detector, corresponding to 3.3 million $B\bar{B}$ pairs, we have searched for the color-suppressed $B$ hadronic decay processes: $\bar{B}^0 \to D^0 (D^{*0}) X^0$,…
We use $(121\pm1)$ million $\Upsilon(3S)$ and $(98\pm1)$ million $\Upsilon(2S)$ mesons recorded by the BABAR detector at the PEP-II $e^+e^-$ collider at SLAC to perform a study of radiative transitions involving the…
Using data taken with the CLEO III detector, 1.09 fb-1 at Upsilon(1S), and 1.28 fb-1 at Upsilon(2S), branching fractions have been measured for the first time for exclusive decays of each resonance into one hundred different final states…
The decays Upsilon(4S) -> BB, followed by B -> D* pi and D* -> D pi, permit reconstruction of all kinematic quantities that describe the sequence without reconstruction of the D, with reasonably low backgrounds. Using an integrated e+e-…
We have studied the leptonic decay of the $\Upsilon (1S)$ resonance into tau pairs using the CLEO II detector. A clean sample of tau pair events is identified via events containing two charged particles where exactly one of the particles is…
We review some recent results on B to charmonia decays from CLEO based on 9.7 BBbar pairs collected with the CLEO detector. These include measurements of B^{0} to J\Psi K^0_s, \chi_{c1} K^0_s and J/\Psi \pi^0 branching fractions, search for…
Using substantially larger data samples collected by the CLEO III detector, we report on new measurements of the decays of Upsilon(1S) to charmonium final states, including J/Psi, psi(2S), and chi_cJ. The latter two are first observations…

The feasibility of determining $\Delta \Gamma_s / Gamma_s$ from $B_s \to D_s^{(*)+} D_s^{(*)-}$ decay branching fraction measurements at $e^+ e^-$ colliders running on the $\Upsilon$(5S) resonance is discussed. The expected accuracies of…
The Belle experiment at KEK accumulated a $121.4~{\rm fb}^{-1}$ sample of $e^+e^-$ collisions at the $\Upsilon(5S)$ resonance. This sample provides ample opportunity for improving the understanding of both the properties of $B_s$ mesons and…

We examine decays of a spin-1 bottomonium into a pair of light scalar Dark Matter (DM) particles, assuming that Dark Matter is produced due to exchange of heavy degrees of freedom. We perform a model-independent analysis and derive formulae…
We present an evaluation of heavy quarkonium states (bottomium and charmonium) from first principles. We use tree-level QCD (including relativistic corrections) and the full one-loop potential; nonperturbative effects are taken into account…
