We present a preliminary measurement of the composition of inclusive semileptonic B meson decays using 9.4 fb^{-1} of e^+e^- data taken with the CLEO detector at the Upsilon(4S) resonance. In addition to measuring the charged lepton…
We have studied the inclusive photon spectra in Upsilon(2S) and \Upsilon(3S) decays using a large statistics data sample obtained with the CLEO III detector. We present the most precise measurements of electric dipole (E1) photon transition…
We determine $|V_{cb}|$ using the third-order perturbative series for the inclusive semileptonic $B$ decay width and for the masses of the bottomonium 1S states. We use the masses of $\eta_b(1S)$ and $\Upsilon(1S)$ as short-distance masses…
We report the first observation of the transition Upsilon(2S) > eta Upsilon(1S), with branching fraction B=(2.1+0.7-0.6(stat.)+-0.3(syst.)) x 10^{-4} and statistical significance 5.3 sigma. Data were acquired with the CLEO detector at the…
In this work, we investigate the re-scattering effects in the radiative decay $\Upsilon(5S)\to\eta_b+\gamma$, which were suggested to be crucially important for understanding the anomalous largeness of the branching ratios…
Using 420 pb^-1 of data collected on the Upsilon(5S) resonance with the CLEO III detector, we reconstruct B mesons in 25 exclusive decay channels to measure or set upper limits on the decay rate of Upsilon(5S) into B meson final states. We…
Using data collected by the CLEO II detector at the center-of-mass energy on or near the Upsilon(4S) resonance, we have determined the 90% confidence level upper limit B(Bbar --> Lambda_c^+ e- X)/B(Bbar --> Lambda_c^+ X, Lambdabar_c^- X) <…
The coulomb plus linear (Cornell) potential is used to investigate the mass spectrum of bottomonium. Gaussian wave function is used in position and momentum space to estimate values of potential and kinetic energies, respectively. Based on…
Using fully reconstructed $B_{s}$ mesons, we measure exclusive branching fractions for the decays $B_s \to D_s^{(*)+}D_s^{(*)-}$. The results are ${\cal B}(B^0_s\ra D^+_s D^-_s)=(0.58\,^{+0.11}_{-0.09}\,\pm 0.13)%$, ${\cal B}(B^0_s\ra…

With the BaBar detector at the PEP-II asymmetric $B$ Factory at SLAC, we present the first search for the decays $B^0\to\ell^+\ell^-\gamma$ ($l=e, \mu$). Using a data set of 292 $fb^{-1}$ collected at the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance, we find…
We measure the absolute branching fractions of $\Ds$ semileptonic decays where the hadron in the final state is one of $\phi$, $\eta$, $\etap$, $\Ks$, $\Kstar$, and $f_0$, using $2.8 \times 10^5$ $\epm \to \Ds\Dsstar$ decays collected in…
BaBar experiment scan around the Upsilon(4S) resonance and measure its mass and full width. They also measure Br(Upsilon(4S) -> B0 B0b) = 0.486 +/- 0.010 +/- 0.009 from 81.7 fb-1 Upsilon(4S) data. CLEO collaboration took about 0.42 fb-1…
Motivated by the prospects of the potential ${\Upsilon}(1S)$ particle at high-luminosity heavy-flavor experiments, we studied the ${\Upsilon}(1S)$ ${\to}$ $B_{c}M$ weak decays, where $M$ $=$ ${\pi}$, ${\rho}$, $K^{(\ast)}$. The…
The ground state hyperfine splitting of positronium, $\Delta_{\mathrm{HFS}}$, is sensitive to high order corrections of QED. A new calculation up to $\mathrm{O}(\alpha ^3 \ln \alpha)$ has revealed a $3.9\sigma$ discrepancy between the QED…
We summarize recent results of baryonic B decays from Belle and BaBar. The results from Belle are based on 140 /fb and results from BaBar are based on 81 /fb of data collected at the Upsilon(4S) resonance at KEKB or PEPII respectively. We…
The analysis of 60 1/pb data collected on the psi(3770) resonance with the CLEO-c detector has produced the first statistically significant signal for D+ -> mu+ nu decay and led to the measurement of the decay branching fraction B(D+ -> mu+…
