The branching fractions of the $\Upsilon(1S)$ inclusive decays into final states with a $J/\psi$ or a $\psi(2S)$ are measured with improved precision to be $\BR(\Upsilon(1S)\to J/\psi + {\rm anything})=(5.25\pm 0.13(\mathrm{stat.})\pm…
We discuss the possible production and discovery channels in $e^+e^-$ and $pp$ machines of the $X_b$, the bottomonium counterpart of $X(3872)$ and the putative isoscalar analogue of the charged bottomonium-like states $Z_b$ discovered by…
The ground-breaking discovery of the first fully charmed tetraquark state $X(6900)$ in the $J/\psi J/\psi$ invariant mass distribution by the LHCb collaboration has inspired intensive theoretical studies. Various interpretations, such as…
A new baryon state is observed in the $\Lambda_b^0\pi^+\pi^-$ mass spectrum with high significance using a data sample of $pp$ collisions, collected with the LHCb detector at centre-of-mass energies $\sqrt{s}=7, 8$ and 13TeV, corresponding…
Recent investigations have suggested that the six-quark combination uuddss could be a deeply bound state (S) that has eluded detection so far, and a potential dark matter candidate. We report the first search for a stable, doubly strange…
We show that a good description of the $\Upsilon(10860)$ properties, in particular the mass, the $e^+ e^-$ leptonic widths and the $\pi^{+}\pi^{-}\Upsilon(ns)$$\ (n=1,2,3)$ production rates, can be obtained under the assumption that…
Recent BaBar limits on $\br(\Upsilon(3S)\to \gam a\to \gam \tau^+\tau^-)$ and $\br(\Upsilon(3S)\to \gam a\to \gam \mu^+\mu^-)$ provide increased constraints on the $a b\anti b$ coupling of a CP-odd Higgs boson, $a$, with…

Very recently Belle Collaboration reported observation of a narrow state called $\Omega(2012)$ with mass $2012.4 \pm 0.7$~(stat)~$\pm 0.6$(syst)~MeV and width $6.4^{+2.5}_{-2.0}$~(stat)~$\pm 1.6$~(syst)~MeV. We calculate the mass and…
Excitation functions of elastic and inelastic 7Be+p scattering were measured in the energy range between 1.6 and 2.8 MeV in the c.m. An R-matrix analysis of the excitation functions provides strong evidence for new positive parity states in…
The SuperB experiment hosted by the Cabibbo laboratory will have the possibility to study electron positron collision both at the \Upsilon(4S) center of mass and at the \psi(3770). Therefore the potential physics reach of the experiment…

Using Upsilon(2S) and Upsilon(3S) data collected with the CLEO III detector we have searched for decays of chi_bJ to final states with open charm. We fully reconstruct D0 mesons with p_D0 > 2.5 GeV/c in three decay modes (K-pi+, K-pi+pi0,…
Using 9.32, 5.88 million Upsilon(2S,3S) decays taken with the CLEO-III detector, we obtain five product branching fractions for the exclusive processes Upsilon(2S) => gamma chi_{b0,1,2}(1P) => gamma gamma Upsilon(1S) and Upsilon(3S) =>…
Recently, the LHCb Collaboration reported a new structure $P_{cs}(4459)$ with a mass of 19 MeV below the $\Xi_c \bar{D}^{*} $ threshold. It may be a candidate of molecular state from the $\Xi_c \bar{D}^{*} $ interaction. In the current…

We have reconsidered the results on the masses of the narrow bottomonium states $\Upsilon(1S)$--$\Upsilon(3S)$ obtained in 1982--1986 at CESR, DORIS and VEPP-4 colliders in order to fix shortcomings of the mass determination procedures. For…
