We present the magnetic dipole($M1$) transitions $V\to P\gamma$ of various heavy-flavored mesons such as $(D,D^*,D_s,D^{*}_s,\eta_c, J/\psi)$ and $(B,B^*,B_s,B^*_s,\eta_b,\Upsilon)$ using the light-front quark model constrained by the…

The rates for magnetic dipole (M1) transitions $\Upsilon(nS) \to \eta_b(n'S) + \gamma$, $n' \le n$, are compared. The photon energies for allowed ($n' = n$) M1 transitions are very small, so hindered ($n' < n$) transitions could be more…

For a class of hindered magnetic dipole ($M1$) transition processes, such as $\Upsilon(3S)\to \eta_b+\gamma$ (the discovery channel of the $\eta_b$ meson), the emitted photon is rather energetic so that the traditional approaches based on…

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…

Using a sample of $771.6 \times 10^{6}$ $\Upsilon(4S)$ decays collected by the Belle experiment at the KEKB $e^+e^-$ collider, we observe for the first time the transition $\Upsilon(4S) \to \eta h_b(1P)$ with the branching fraction ${\cal…

At optical frequencies, interactions of the electric field component of light with matter are dominating, whereas magnetic dipole transitions are inherently weak and challenging to access independently from electric dipole transitions.…

We report the first observation of the radiative transition h_b(1P)->eta_b(1S)gamma, where the h_b(1P) is produced in Upsilon(5S)->h_b(1P)pi+pi- dipion transitions. We measure the eta_b(1S) mass to be (9401.0+-1.9+1.4-2.4)MeV/c^2 with a…

We compute the electric dipole transitions $\chi_{bJ}(1P)\to \gamma\Upsilon(1S)$, with $J=0,1,2$, and $h_{b}(1P)\to \gamma\eta_{b}(1S)$ in a model-independent way. We use potential non-relativistic QCD (pNRQCD) at weak coupling with either…

In this work, we propose a possible experimental research topic on the $\Upsilon(6S)\to \Upsilon(nS)\eta^{(\prime)}$ ($n=1,2,3$) transitions. Considering the hadronic loop effect from the intermediate $S$-wave $B_{(s)}$ and $B_{(s)}^*$…

In the hindered magnetic dipole transitions of heavy quarkonia, the coupled-channel effects originating from the coupling of quarkonia to a pair of heavy and anti-heavy mesons can play a dominant role. Here, we study the hindered magnetic…
